So which console has a better list for 2008:
Grand Theft Auto IV (Playstaion 3/X-Box 360)
Resident Evil 5 (Playstation 3/X-Box 360)Gran Turismo 5 (Playstation 3)
Final Fantasy XIII (Playstaion 3)
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (Playstation 3)
Devil May Cry 4 (Playstation 3)World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King (PC/Mac)
Starcraft II (PC)Duke Nukem Forever (Playstation 3/X-Box 360/PC)
Some are saying we may see Gears of War 2 for 360. I just hope Alan Wake gets released this year.

Billick fired after nine seasons as Ravens coach
ESPN.com news services
OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Brian Billick was fired as coach of the Baltimore Ravens on Monday, less than a day after his team concluded a disappointing 5-11 season and less than a year after receiving a contract extension through 2010.
Players were told of the dismissal as they packed up their lockers at the team's practice facility.
Only a few weeks ago, Billick proclaimed that he would return in 2008, but Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti, who does not speak to the media during the season, made no public statement to that effect.
"I just changed my mind," the owner told The Baltimore Sun on Monday. "I can't explain it to you. It's the toughest decision I've had to make."
Billick won Super Bowl XXXV in his second season with the Ravens, and led the team to a franchise-best 13-3 record in 2006. But Baltimore lost a team-record nine consecutive games this season before ending the skid Sunday with a 27-21 win over Pittsburgh.
"This is the reality of our business," cornerback Samari Rolle said.
Billick took the Ravens to the playoffs in 2000, 2001, 2003 and 2006, but Baltimore won only one postseason game since its Super Bowl run after the 2000 season.
"Sometimes the message can get repetitive after a while," 12-year offensive tackle Jonathan Ogden said.
The Ravens expected to compete for the NFL championship this season after bringing back almost every starter from last year's AFC North title-winning team. But injuries and a turnover-prone offense contributed to a complete collapse after a 4-2 start, and Baltimore finished last in the division.
"This year the injury bug not only hit us, [it] hit our prime-time players," linebacker Bart Scott said.
Billick, 53, was hired as Baltimore's second head coach in January 1999, succeeding Ted Marchibroda. In Billick's first season, the Ravens reached .500 (8-8) for the first time. Then he led Baltimore to a 12-4 record and a berth in the Super Bowl, where the Ravens beat the New York Giants 34-7.
Billick was 80-64 as Ravens coach. He came to Baltimore a year after coordinating the Vikings offense to a then-NFL record 556 points in 1998.
"I'm not saying I agree with it," kicker Matt Stover said of Billick's dismissal, "but sometimes things have to change."
Sunday, following what proved to be his final game as coach, Billick said of the victory, "It was great. Hopefully, that's a sign of things to come."

I guess people are flaming Ledger all over the place after this trailer. Is there something wrong I don't see? I think this looks great.
What are their criticisms?
