The 360 line-up is the most promising.

With the last of Nintendo's hardcore franchises out of the way, Nintendo has nothing left in it's hardcore arsenal of games. E3 2008 is just proof of this. They have to step up their game(s) if they want to maintain their hardcore crowd. As I am writing this paragraph, not a single upcoming game for the Wii comes to mind that I am looking forward to.

If they want to keep up with the competition, they need to consistently have hardcore games on the horizon. To name just a few, I'm looking forward to: Resident Evil 5, Gears of War 2, Final Fantasy XIII and Soul Calibur IV on my 360 (and theres more, but I can't think of them off the top of my head). Many of these were once Playstation exclusives. On the Wii, I'm looking forward to...Hoping that they announce a good game from one of their best franchises.

See the problem here? Hope is good, but is certainly not enough. When the 360 line-up looks THAT promising, I would rather put my money where all the games are heading.

True that, I already preoredered GoW 2. It's gonna be a good year for Xbox.
All we got for Wii was Animal Crossing and a new Pikmin...

Realistically, all the consoles have good line-ups. With the exception of Gears of War 2 and Halo Wars, PS3 will have all those titles + Killzone 2, Little Big Planet, and God of War 3.

The Wii will have Mario Wii 2, Pikmin 3, Zelda Wii 2, and Animal Crossing within the next few years.

It's a relatively good time to be a gamer. Just hurts my wallet.

The Xbox had a great E3 and it looks to be a fantastic rest of the year for the 360. I've got a good 10 games or so lined up that I want to purchase, but likely won't be able to because that would be a ton of freaking money.

Viva Pinata 2, Banjo Kazooie, Too Human, Rock Band 2, Gears 2, Fable 2, Fallout 3, Left 4 Dead all this year... and then in early 2009 Halo Wars and Resident Evil 5? Hell yes. And Aliens Colonial Marines... whenever that comes out, it's going to be awesome. Battlestar Galactica writers penned the story? Another hell yes.
