@bam541 I could be wrong, but I don't think Monster Hunter Freedom Unite counts as a 2008 release.

Yeah, would be a 2009 release if we go by the same rules as before.
-
Votes sent. Like I said for the 2009 list, that, this list, 2007, and 2006 hold the greatest potential of me being able to share my experience with a majority of the games that could potentially make our final countdown. Exciting to say the least.
-
@shoulderguy yeah I forgot that we're doing western release dates. Already replaced it though, so no biggie.
-
Like 2009, 2008 is one of my lightest gaming years ever. I don't think I can come up with even 3 new games I played and liked that year.
-
After reviewing the games released that year, holy shit 2008 was an absolute banger of a year.
I'm actually having a really hard time thinking about what to get rid of. Some of my favorite games ever came out in 2008!
-
Wow, going through that list really took me back, feels like another lifetime.
I played surprisingly few games from that year, and actually disliked quite a few I played, so it wasn't hard at all to come up with a list, I only had to cut a couple.
Weak year for me, apart from my GOTY which is one of my favourite games ever.
-
Submitted my list. Holy fuuuuck I needed to make some tough choices.
Every game on my list is some GOTY best in class type shit.
-
Looks like you've all submitted way more diverse lists than I was expecting-should make for an interesting countdown indeed.
-
@jdincinerator I'm pretty sure we counted BlazBlue and Street fighter IV as 2009 games.
Also Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII is missing from the list. Came out in the west in 2008.
I think 2008 is a pretty weak year. I finished 21 games from that year and quite a few that I dislike. I don't think there is any other year where I played this many game I dislike. It doesn't take a lot for me to enjoy a game and I know really well what type of games I like and dislike.
-
@jdincinerator I suggest to explicitly state rules in the first post. This will make it easier for newcomers.

-
Fuck me there was a game called Muslim Massacre. Don't think that shit would fly nowadays.
-
I'm not sure if copying the entire Wikipedia list straight to here as it is is the best solution as there are a lot of ports and non-western releases among there. I hope anyone didn't include such games on their lists yet.
I am, however, happy to once again take part in this! Gonna send my votes in soon.
-
@ffff0 Ok I will put those up once I am aware of what the rules are.
-
@dipset Bro I was like that with Buzz! Quiz TV.
Legit there hasn't been a quiz game since that comes even remotely close to that baller ass game. I pray every day for a reboot. Hell, I'm pretty certain Knowledge is Power was originally supposed to be one, considering the host is the same voice actor.
-
@jdincinerator Err... you tell us, since you are organizer of this event. If rules are the same as in previous votes, they are still worth reiterating. As I said, this will make it easier for newcomers.
-
@ffff0 Yeah true but admittedly I only followed what I was meant to do in previous community votes and probably only passively looked at the rules. Whatever the case I'll get those rules up.
-
@jdincinerator A few more 2008 games to add to the list:
- Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney
- Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift
- Lost Odyssey
- No More Heroes
- Professor Layton and the Curious Village
- The Last Remnant
- The World Ends With You
-
Oh noes, Lost Odyssey was 2008? I need to change my vote!
