Damn, Forza 2 just missed the cut? However I agree with all the rest, nice choices.

It's a really hard decision to make actually, 07 is really shaping up to be awesome.

I have played metal gear solid portable ops, its not great. Mainly cause of the horrible controls and bad camera angles.
You missed crisis core, I assume its coming out this year.

Shazbot, I'd forgotten about STALKER completely!
Is that actually going to be coming out any time soon?
It'll be interesting to see how it turns out, a few years after the hype.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R = Duke Nukem Forever.
Really big year 2007, all the major stuff from all platforms comes out. Going to be a busy year. out of all of them, the most I want to play now is Assassin's Creed.

I seriously can't believe Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core isn't there. Man! I'm also pretty shocked at the lack of Mass Effect, my official Most Looked-Forward-To Game of All Time, and Huxley, assuming that also drops in 07. LOTR The White Council could also be a bit of alright.
07 is going to be an incredible year for gaming- I can't believe we're already talking about the PS3 as "coming soon!" It's so damn close- only two months!

I'll be holding back some Christmas money for Prime 3, certainly my most anticipated game of next year, though I'm also looking forward to Forza 2, Jade Empire 2, Pokémon D/P and Battle Revolution. Sound list though, a nice reference for when I (hopefully) pick up a 360 next year.

Minor Error: Isn't Unreal Tournament 2007 for Xbox360 rather than PS3 or maybe both?
Funnily enough one of your earlier UT2007 articles mentioned that it was the first time console gamers can take their UT love online which is sorta false. There was a Live port of UT2003 on Xbox, though I think it was called Unreal Championship or something so I suppose technically you are correct

Nope. I remember there was some sort of unofficial announcement that it'll be coming to Xbox 360 during E3, but Epic has ever since said it is only coming to PS3 and PC. Maybe something to do with maintaining exclusive rights to the title for a short period of time and then switching it over to the 360 later.

We had a lot of titles miss the vote, unfortunately. We had to condense it down to four per a system (handhelds together) to make it fair for each one, and the fact we wanted a fairly smallish article. I think the titles that made the cut are all titles that deserve to be there.
From a personal opinion I would've loved to have seen Spore, Huxley, Hellgate: London, Command & Conquer 3... there's plenty more too. Big year for gaming, especially PCs.

My thoughts
UT belongs on the PC and no other platform
MGS4: looks awsome am looking forward to it (Lucky i have a flatmate that intends on forking out for a PS3)
GTA4: I think different content will appear on different systems (live exclusive stuff and ps online exclusive stuff) as well as stuff for both, to see which one is cooler, will have to wait, I hope it is good because San Andreas bored me
I was born a Sega fanboy but after the horrible Sonic game on the 360 even I have to admit this is the blue hedgehogs last chance with Secret Rings, if this does not deliver, I think its time for Dr Robotnik to finally get the best of him
Super Smash Bros does not get old, that simple
Mario Galaxy: Mario Sunshine sucked, lucky New Super Mario Bros gave the fat guy some momentum and hopefully Mario Galaxy will deliver
I was so pissed when they delayed Metroid Prime 3, hopefully like Twilight Princess it will be worth the wait
The 360 title (only one) that interests me on this list is Banjo Kazooie 3, Perfect Dark Zero and Conkers Locked and Loaded were BAD! I hope Rare does not do the same thing with Banjo otherwise I have lost all faith in the new Microsoft Rare XP. Rare this better be good
Anyone who likes singstar should be shot in the head and banned from video games for life.
Cannot wait for Bioshock it looks sweet
Never had much time for Halo
Phantom Hourglass is a direct sequel to Wind Waker, it looks interesting but WW was ment to be the final story to Zelda

heh, yeah.
but lets not forget that Prey was in development for 11 years, and turned out decently.
some damn fine games on that list, and some damn fine games that missed out too. *looks at Portal*

OKies... Singstar? What the?
No Mass Effect = sadness. Could be the game of the year for 2007.

I completely forgot about Hellgate: London, I really want that game too (FPRPG with random environments, how can it not be awesome?)

So who will join me if I start an "Anti-PALGN Anticpation List" club for their lack of Mass Effect?
