Yes, but nothing more than brief glimpses. Looks great so far, but too brief to say too much. They're promising big blowout in March.

1) Earth Defense Force X - Sad they didn't have time to include the flying girl, but this is going to be the number 1 co-op game of 2007.
2) Crackdown - Yeah, looks pretty weak in some areas, but it's got co-op in a massive city, so I'm down.
3) Bioshock - I'm so glad I won't have to buy a brand new PC for this. So atmospheric and creepy so far, and considering the talented hands involved, I have a lot of faith here.
4) KOF XII - Because XI was the best 2d fighter ever, and XII is promising brand new sprites, which is still hard to believe.
5) Guitar Hero II 360 - I held out over the PS2 version. Looking forward to rocking to the Toadies.

In no particular order:

1. Crackdown
2. Shadowrun
3. Super Mario Galaxy
4. Super Smash Bros. Brawl
5. Banjo Kazooie 3

Honorable Mentions: Virtua Fighter 5, Halo 3, Metroid Prime 3, Super Paper Mario, every Star Wars game that comes out, Virtua Tennis 3, Lost Planet

The only games I'm looking forward to this year are Persona 3 and the Tomb Raider remake. :x

1. Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)
2. Warioware Smooth Moves (Wii)
3. Bioshock (360/PC)
4. Metal Gear Solid 4 (PS3/360?)
5. The new next DS Castlevania, because you know it's coming.

Bioshock, VF5, Halo 3, MGS4, Devil May Cry 4

Honorable Mentions: Mass Effect, Super Mario Galaxy, Half-Life 2, SSB Brawl, Lost Planet

If KOFXI comes out in the US, I'm all over it like a stripper on an old businessman.

1. Half-life 2 Super Fun Time Happy Pack (360)
2. Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)
3. Halo 3 (360)
4. Hotel Dusk: Room 207 (DS)
5. Mercenaries 2 (assuming a 360 release)

Honorable mentions-
MGS4- lol ps3. A 360 port, if it pans out, it probably won't be out until sometime next year.

DMC4- Ditto.

Mass Effect- Bioware games never really click with me, but I'm hopeful for this one since it seems to eschew the ass-sucking virtual dice-roll combat system for an action/FPS system.

Bioshock- I dunno. Watched a little developer walkthough and it just didn't grab me at all. I want it to be as good as everyone thinks it will, but there's a nagging feeling I have that that won't be the case.

Metroid Prime 3- I love Metroid to death, but I'm kind of burnt out on the formula for the time being, between the Primes and the Castlevanias...

Castlevania: SotN: ...although I'll gladly play through this again for some achievements.

God of War 2- I felt hosed paying $50 for a game as short as GoW when the PS2 was still a current and impressive console. Now that I've been spoiled by next-gen, it's even less appealing a prospect. Greatest Hits or bust.

FFT PSP: It's FFT! On the PSP! Oh em eff gee!

GTA4- These are fun. Saint's Row was a pale, pale imitator.

Burning Crusade
Trusty Bell
Persona 3
Metroid Prime 3
Devil May Cry 4

HM: Blue Dragon, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Spore, Halo 3

Top 5

1. BioShock (360/PC)
2. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (XBLA)
3. Mass Effect (360)
4. Grand Theft Auto IV (360/PS3)
5. Mercenaries 2 (PS3)

Honorable Mentions (None of these are British of Canadian, so get that fucking "u" out of there.)

Halo 3 (360)
King of Fighters XII (PS3?)
Crysis (PC)
Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)
Resident Evil (Wii)

The Darkness
Kane & Lynch: Dead Men (This is being made by the Hitman people, so I think it will be good.)
Bioshock
Halo 3
Metal Gear Solid 4

Games that I know I will purchase this year.

Guitar Hero 2 (Xbox 360)
Worms Arcade
Alien Hominid HD
Symphony of the Night (XBLA)
Halo 3

People in these boards keep crowing about Bioshock, but I'm reserving judgment until I see more of the game.
