After much input from the community and game experts, WCG has unveiled the lineup for 2008. Some new faces in the lineup, while the classics sit down for another round of competition.
Warcraft III
Starcraft
Counter-Strike (version not specified, 1.6 perhaps?)
FIFA 08
Need for Speed
Command and Conquer 3
Age of Empires 3
Carom3D
Red Stone
Project Gotham Racing
Asphalt 3
Halo 3
Guitar Hero 3
Virtua Fighter 5
Quite an interesting selection of games this time. WCG does not include Dead or Alive 4, currently used by the CGS as one of its staple games. The Guitar Hero 3 competition could be pretty intense too. Overall, the game pool looks heavier towards racing games.

same as last year for racing games it seems though… they had NFS and PGR last year.. along with a mobile phone racing game booth or whatever…
red stone is curious.. looks pretty lame in my eyes, but haven’t played it so not the one to judge I guess. Mobile games is a funny direction but can’t really take that seriously.
I would expect CoD4 instead of Halo3 though. Might be microsoft influence or some simple (odd) choice making.
