Why'd you even need dual monitor support for StarCraft II?
Infact how many people do you reckon have a dual monitor setup anyway, seems like a luxury rather than any sort of essential feature.

Besides, you say "graphically improved StarCraft" like it's a bad thing.

Have you played an RTS with multi-monitor support? Going back to only one screen feels like the dark ages, and 2 monitors isn't really a luxury anymore. It nearly costs more to buy one 24" monitor than to buy 2x19" monitors.

Like Kharn said, it allows you to micro manage multiple groups of units a lot more easily. You could set one monitor to your base another to your offensive units...

Also, I say "graphically improved" the same way i'd say Crysis is a "graphically improved" version of Far Cry. Rehashing the same old game with better graphics does not make that same old game any better, gameplay wise.

Try out multi-monitor support in SupCom or WiC and then come back to me and tell me it isn't needed.

It isn't.
It's just a nice feature, but the game still plays perfectly well without it (At least in SupCom, i found), it's nice if you have the monitors but the lack of it isn't any sort of deal breaker.

Besides, i still say the amount of people with dual monitors is quite small, lets face it outside of a few RTS's what would you use it for? Coding and such mostly, but most games have no need for more than one screen.

And i'd be very slow to call StarCraft II the same with better graphics, seeing as most of the units are getting replaced and/or overhauled.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Nothing else matters.

Wouldn't get my hopes up too much. Didn't they find that people got bored in playtests? So they they dumbed the game down a bit.

It coud be the best game ever or it could be a "The Sims 13: Alien Mutants".

Hurph!

Mostly I'm looking foward to MGS4 and GTA4. There is also the new Splinter Cell, Prince of Perisa(but i think that's 2009),Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six, End War and Gears of War 2

TheDoc

id completely disagree that dual monitors is a benefit

if it was it would be used widespread...


I'm unsure about starcraft2 tbh... obviously going to be heavily relying on old starcraft fans more then grabbing in new players.

It is going to be the no.1 pro game played by a long shot...mainly cause of its name...


As for games this year

GTAIV
Rainbow 2
world in conflict 360 version
gears of war 2
starcraft 2 ( ill have to give it a shot)

Sputnicks

GTAIV - all the way

Sephiroth_dude

can anyone point me in the direction of a website where I'd find a list of stratergy games coming out this year?

Hornd

No one else for HAZE.

Im really looking forward to it. Itll probably be the most complete package for a FPS on the playstation. 4 player split screen and co-op, play the main game over the internet with friends, loads of guns, great storyline.

Looks class.

franman

Alone in the Dark 5. The real world tech demos looked amazing!!

brav

For me it would have to be Fable 2. I just hope it will be released and has just half of the stuff they are promising

Kiith

I've got really high hopes for Fable 2. If only just to have a realistic dog as a companion. Anyone who leaves their dog behind when he's injured has a heart of stone.

tomred1

GTA IV and Gear of war 2

Krieg

Bah, how did I forget-

World of Warcraft: Wrath of the lich king

We all know its going to outsell most (if not all) other games in 2008

ToughyIRE

Mercenaries 2

humanji

I've just heard about Mirror's Edge, which goes on my list. It's basically a Parkour game with people trying to kill you. looks pretty cool.

Fizman

Operation Flashpoint 2!!!!

(And GTA4)

kaimera

I assume gta4 will be a 09 release on pc?

vegas2/Left4Dead seems interesting/Gears2.

New Splinter Cell.
