Forget about 2008. We're ready to celebrate the new year with these excellent games.

Skate 2 (EA)

Skate 2 promises even more shredding opportunities than the original. Look for more skaters, a deeper soundtrack, additional modes (Regular vs. Goofy) and the more skateboarding action. Bonus, you can control your character in Skate It! for the Wii by using the Balance Board.

im a little puzzled as to why "the conduit' for the wii wasn't mentioned, it looks like the best upcoming game on the wii

Hearincolors. I don't mean to burst YOUR template, but Resident Evil 4 for the Wii simply doesn't count. It's a next generation cousel, but the graphics aren't next generation and Resident Evil 4 isn't a next generation game. It's a port. It wasn't made for the Nintendo Wii. SO yeah. Resident Evil 5 WILL BE the first Next Generation Resident Evil Game. Template POPPED!

I don't mean to burst a bubble here, but Resident Evil 5 won't be the first game in that series for current-gen consoles. The Wii already has its own version of Resident Evil 4.

I guess we need to just accept that crappy games turned crappier (the result being halo wars) will always catch more attention than their legitimate competitors (DoW 2) due to the rabid fanbase of squeaky, pre-pubescent males with access to X-Box live.

No Masterof thesim11, just YOU are THAT DISAPPOINTED. xrussiank***ht, we can only hope that become as informed on proper spelling as this guy is on being a GAMER. :| Gosh, I read your post and starting ducking and searching for Gamma Rays.

No Dawn of War 2 but Halo Wars? How stupidly bias can this crap get, this guy sounds like a really informed gammer ;)

Tekken 6..... well for those who don't know the characters were revealed especially since the game was out.. However all the other games a lot looks promising

ok ummm this list is retarded, most of the games will prolly not come in 2009 GoW3? prolly not FF13? eh MAAAAYBE SC2 - big maybe(and plz its not the most anticipated game of all time, Warcraft has always trumped SC overall lookit the 11 mill on WoW) D3 - def. no it was stated it is most definetly not coming before or around SC2 where is: Final Fantasy Versus XIII? the want on that game is comparable to a FF7...
