I think he's referring to 3DS and NGP (or PSP2). They are handheld consoles after all.

EDIT: On-Topic, I'm personally looking forward to:

- Duke Nukem Forever
- 3DS
- NEW Oddworld game(s)
- Mass Effect 3
- Marvel vs. Capcom 3/Mortal Kombat

Everyone on WoW was all OMGWTF about it.

There are at least 12 things I'm looking forwards to. Probably a lot more.

Basically everything.

Skyrim, maybe Duke Nuke'em, and 3DS stuff although I doubt I'll be buying one anytime soon.

Diablo 3... I don't really play games much anymore, at all. Except for World of Warcraft, but I don't play that as much as some people.

Black Mesa (the fan-made Half-Life 1 remake) is apparently nearly done according to an article, with a few tweaks needed. I'm hoping it'll finally be released this year.
I'm looking forward to the Oddworld re-releases, of course. And Portal 2. And perhaps the Beyond Good and Evil HD remake (though I don't see the point of that - It looks slightly shinier than the original but that's about it! Gief sequel plx!).

However, while it's nice to see four of my most treasured classic games getting new and well-deserved leases of life (and all perhaps in the same year), I find it a little sad that it's mostly HD re-releases that I'm looking forward to, rather than original games. Is it me or is the gaming industry on a lull this year?

Oh, right. Black fucking Mesa. I've been waiting for that for ages. Also Portal 2.

Also Shadow of the Colossus and Ico remakes. Can't wait.

Skyrim, too.

Portal 2

SoTC and Ico re-release
Is KH3D set for this year? If it is, that.
Deus Ex 3
I know I'm forgetting something.

People aren't worried about the co-op. People are worried because they've done something completely different. They've milked the basic RnC formulae lots, but it felt just right in ACiT and they're mad not doing one brilliant game before moving onto new horizons (while the basic stuff was right with ACit the length was not).

Well since Insomniac are making it, It can't be bad at all. I think it will suit R&C

Insomniac making it doesn't mean it's a sure thing. It means that it will probably be good.

Big thing for me this year is the 3DS, but I don't foresee buying one until later in the year. Other than that, Duke's about it. Shame I don't have my old preorder receipt, that would be something.

I think that the Nintendo Wii is just for families now, not for hardcore gamers whatsoever. I sold my Wii over a year ago, but I got one ten days after it was released.

Surprised no one wants the new PSP2 or whatever it is. I'm going to get one to play PS2 games on when custom firmware exists for it; portable PS2 anyone?
