Shane Kim: 360 Predictions for 2008

Microsoft's Shane Kim has suggested that the 360's gaming line-up for 2008 could surpass last year's success. Kim stated this year's line up is "just as strong, if not stronger" than last year's. Kim explained:

"We had incredible titles last year with BioShock, Halo 3, Mass Effect and Call of Duty 4. ... Especially when you look at Halo 3, which was a phenomenal industry event, it's easy to look back and go 'you can't possibly be as strong.' But if you look at the initial success of Grand Theft Auto IV on Xbox 360, that's been super, and we have exclusive [DLC] content coming too. Gears of War 2 is going to be huge, Fable 2 is going to be huge."

With monster hit GTA IV already under its belt and the upcoming DLC (although it's not certain to be out this year), the 360 is still going strong. But, we think it'll take a lot to beat last year's holy trinity of Bioshock, Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4.
