No particular order apparently. I can't say I really disagree with much of anything on there. As a PS3 owner and fan I know I'm not supposed to say it but I am wary of LBP. From what I've seen it has all kinds of potential but it's hard to say that if you buy it as a game to play instead of a building tool if it'll be all that much fun.

I want Sonic Chronicles to turn out well. It's developed by bioware so it should at least be decent.
I don't think LBP will appeal to everyone, a lot of people may think it sucks when it comes out but then then there will be people who love it. It all comes done to your own opinion anyways.

I really do see LBP as a love it or hate it game. It'll really depend on what you want out of the game.

If Wii Music is as it was described at E3 then it will most certainly suck. Sounds like it has all the fun of using a garage door opener. Push a button and whatever was predetermined to happen, happens.

Rock Revolution is an unneeded 3rd entry into the band genre. And while Rock Band will have 500 songs available at the end of the year this game doesn't even bother with master tracks. They just shouldn't have bothered with anything.

Imagine games? Well duh.

WiiMusic will borbably be one of the best selling games this generation, not that I think I will like it but I would be careful using the word "suck" for a game like that. A game that sucked was ET for the Atari, this list is only subjctive.

Oh and also I'm having hopse for Sonic Chronicles

I am certainly going to hate Wii music but I reckon lots of people will like it. Nintendo aren't appealing to gamers anymore, they are appealing to an expanded audience and this is why they buy Wiis

Wii Music will likely sell well just because it has Wii at the beginning of the title. However at this time I see it selling a lot less than the other 3 Wii games. Obviously Wii Sports is a pack in aside from Japan so if it's counted it will be the number 1 selling game of this generation. Wii Play is really only bought for the Wiimote and WiiFit has that whole "it's a game that's can make you healthier" thing going for it. So really none of the Wii games have been sold just on the game itself and that's why they've sold so well. If Wii Music doesn't come with a pack in and just tries to sell on the game itself it likely won't do as well.

Of course a few million copies will still be sold and they'll probably come out with a bunch of plastic snap-ons to make you remote look like the instrument you're playing. I just wonder how many of the people that buy it will actually still have fun playing it after they've had it for a month?

I have a feeling this game will go the path of Nintendogs for DS tbh

It will sell loads of copies but for us "normal" gamers it will be a mystery how it can sell so well

Could be, but I also see games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band causing problems for Wii Music's success. Both those games sell well to a casual audience, so will casual gamers who own one or both of those games really find Wii Music to be all that appealing?
