I've nominated the games of 2007 up in this poll, that will obviously be a hit of 2007 and seems like to be one of the best years in gaming. I won't explain most of these games because they explain themselves. Choose your answers:


Crysis
Platforms: PC
Genre: Sci-Fi First-Person Shooter
Release Date: Q3 2007
ESRB Rating: Mature
Developer: Crytek
Publisher: EA Games

Comments: Think about the next-gen Sci-fi FarCry, even includes a map-editor. Crysis is one of the most best visuals of E3. It's a standard FPS, but think of massive environment filled with mountains and trees, that even trees are in-effect by your bullets. But as I said, think of a next-gen sci-fi FarCry.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Platforms: PlayStation 3
Genre: Modern Action Adventure
Release Date: TBA 2007
ESRB Rating: Mature
Developer: Kojima Productions
Publisher: Konami

Comments:It will obviously be the top games for PlayStation 3, but the most known. It's a japanese stealth action game that even supports cutscenes as comic strips (Unless I'm wrong). I only know a little about this game, but what I know most is that it's a cartoon version of Splinter Cell.

Comments: If GRAW 1 is already GOTY of 2006, and if GRAW 2 looks way better and acts out like Rainbow Six Vegas, then just think about it.

Comments: Little is known about SC 5, but athletic spies that sneaks up in the dark with high-tech gadgets will make this game a hit but who knows? For all we know, co-op might be back.

Comments: WoW already stole GOTY from Halo 2 at 2004, and it may steal again from Halo 3... or lets say all of the games listed in this poll. An MMORPG with fantastic environments, new races, new places, and a level-cap to 70 speaks itself. After all, it's an MMORPG.

Half-Life 2

Comments: What is more crazier than Half-Life 2 if it were a standard first-person shooter without Portal, new chapters and Team Fortress. The new chapters continues the story, also known as Chapter 1 and 2. Portal will just bring your world upside down, but what if Portal takes the same amount of hours of the original Half-Life 2? Team Fortress is back, and Team Fortress is what brings up multiplayer that gives each player different roles in the first place.

Unreal Tournament 2007

Genre: Sci-Fi First-Person Shooter
Release Date: Q1 2007
ESRB Rating: Mature
Developer: Epic Games
Publisher: Midway

Comments: If you're all about hardcore, who loves multiplayer way more than Single Player, then this game is for you. 64 Players onlines, imagine Onslaught beating up Halo 3. Most mods from UT2k4 like the Cicada, SPMA, Excessive Overkill are probably back. This is what you need to upgrade your PC for. But don't forget, you'll surely love this game. Parents of UT2k7 known as UT2k4 and UT99 is already the most played games today.

Mass Effect
Platforms: Xbox 360
Genre: Sci-Fi Action Role-Playing Game
Release Date: Q2 2007
ESRB Rating: Rating Pending
Developer: BioWare
Publisher: Microsoft Game Studios

Screenshots | Videos | Website
Comments: Think of GRAW, Halo 3 and Oblivion combined. Oblivion for the dialogue, RPG role... Halo 3 for outer space (except Mass Effect has milkyways > clusters > planets > where-to-land is way massive) and GRAW for the tactical depth for gameplay. If those 3 games speaks itself, so does this game.

Comments: Master Chief is back to kick a lot of alien butt, even the barbarians. Brutes may be a minor add in Halo 2 but think of them as the next-gen weapons and vehicles. This game is the sequel to the game that has about 65 millions players which was also a sequel to the Xbox Launch title. So grab that mongoose with a Spartan Laser and leave your men behind to grab the flag and go for the man cannon. FYI, man cannon is already used in Halo 2, but only in two maps: Ascension and Collosus.

Comments: What do you think is the best replacement for StarCraft, but then again controlling Zerg and ruling the Galaxy? Spore... enough said.

Well, I say MGS: 4. Basically one of the most wanted PS3 games.

ADDITION:
Also, why is there like only mostly 360 games up there ?

I don't know, I can barely find any PS3 games that would be a hit. And I don't think UT2k7 would be a 360 neither a PS3 game.

Burning crusade. In one gameshow, WoW won ~5 awards.

Yeah but didn't all of the games in this poll received an award from E3?

Well, ill give you a list of them.

ADDITION:
Theres Lair, Motorstorm, Mercenaries 2: World in Flames, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Devil May Cry 4, Killzone, Ratchet and Clank 5 and Heavenly Sword. Those are the ones that im sure are only for PS3.

Ninja Gaiden Sigma is also a 360 game (I think, because Ninja Gaiden and Ninja Gaiden Black were on Xbox). I forgot about that. I'll list them in the "Others" list.

You didn't include Spore? Spore is going to wipe the floor with all those games. Portal/Episode 2 looks pretty good too, but Spore is the undisputed king...

Of course, with all these delays, it might end up being GotY 2008...

Lol,

Well we need more people to post, some1 voted for WoW again. WHO WAS IT ?

Resistance: FoM?

It came out last year Im not sure it would actually count as a 07 game.

Super Smash Bros Brawl will probably be a big wii hit, however I personally feel WoW is most likely to win, mainly because it has a huge fanbase and I would say more people have PC's and MACs then people have Xbox 360's, PS3's and Nintendo Wii's (woah that rhymed )

Other: Remake the poll December 2007 and then I'll tell you. Until then I can't possibly know or desire to speculate.

What about SPORE?!

Grand Theft Auto IV (X360, PS3) is going to be the game of 2007.

Halo 3 is famous in a minority and WoW isnt played by most of the people.

But wait, wat happened to games of the Wii? I forgot to post about that.

"Spore is to gamers as Jesus is to Christians."

It's going to win. Everything. Ever.

...

Seriously. >Adds Spore

WoW Is still extremely well known and widely played, It will come out high if not on top.

Meh, you shouldnt take the Wii out of the competition. They have some interesting games coming out using the control to swing a sword and cast some magic.

Especially since Wii is beating both of the other consoles.
As much as i'd like to see it, i don't think Prime 3 is going to get any kind of award, but who cares? I Don't need games that have awards to pick out the good ones. Brawl is probally going to be a big hit.

World of Warcraft will dominate all of those, even though I don't play the game. It is more popular then all of the others.

KrAzY, are you talking about console games only?

Gamers existed before spore, and I wouldn't call anyone who plays games a sporian.

But it still is going to win.

Not over starcraft.

But close.

Obviously not.

EDIT:
People who are obsessed of Spore should get interested in Supreme Commander and Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars. C&C was my second RTS choice when I was a young other than StarCraft... better yet it's like three different terrans and Supreme Commander is a real smash-in battlefield that is huge and very intense, but the same goes with C&C, 3 different terrans.


I'll do that, it won't be my fault if this poll revived.

Well how about adding in a few more Wii games shall we. Theres, Sonic and the Secret Rings, Super Mario Galaxy, Fire Emblem, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption and Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles: The Chrystal Bearers. Thats a whole list from EBgames.
