Its a little late in the year but these are the things I am looking forward to for the coming 12 11 months.
Gaming
There isn't much on my list of things I want for 2008. I still have a ton of gaming I still need to catch up on from 2007 and WoW isn't helping me at getting thru them at all. Not surprisingly there is only one Wii game that I am looking forward to along with all the other Wii owners (I still don't have one). Spore is always on my list cause any simulation that is really a 5XSIM is gonna be on the list. There are two MMOs on the list but if Tabula Rasa couldn't keep me at bay from WoW then can these two slay the WoW beast? The rest are (near)given triple A titles so they will get a spot on the list. So for my list of up and coming games they are.
Events
Only two really notable events this year. One, I'll be attending Tech Ed finally and it will be a good year for it too with all the new server products from Microsoft. The other is PAX, I was able to attend last years and had such a blast that I am giddy with the thought of going again this year. Like last year the plan is to train it up from LAX to SEA and game all the way. Hopefully with recent events everyone still can manage to go.
Tech
I mentioned it above but new server products from Microsoft this year. The next Long Term Support version of Ubuntu is due this year in April and can't wait to try that one out. Penryn chips are now out and I hope to see more laptops incorporate it as they are cooler and energy efficient.
Movies
Here is my list of movies that I want to see this year. Its quite the list and hopefully I can get to them.
