This is were you lay down predictions for future events, in attempt to demonstrate your personal insight or supernatural prescience.
I'll start with some predictions about the coming wave of MMOs. These aren't declarations of one game's innate quality or superiority, just what I think their odds of survival are, in the face of the network effect and the deadly hype engines.
In loosely chronological order:
Guild Wars 2 kills Fantasy Earth Zero. (FEZ is only alive because of the ways it differs from WoW, but it is much more similar to GW2.)
World of Warcraft kills Final Fantasy XIV. (Somebody tell me what Square is thinking; I'm a prophet not a mind reader.)
Guild Wars 2 cripples TERA, which escapes into exile, in China. (This is a fierce, head-to-head battle, but GW2 has already struck telling blows. It will be a battle for the ages.)
After a long struggle, Wakfu perishes, under assault from WoW and GW2. (TERA will do some damage as well, before GW2 pushes it out of the American market.)
Discuss, disagree, or issue an unrelated prophecy of your own.
EDIT:
Oh, and GW2 kills League of Legends.
Sorry G, that's the way the wind is blowing.
