Around the Network

Xenoblade, but release in the west was complete disaster, no Monado Archives, no proper soundtrack, extremely limited print, such a shame.



 

Overall Best Games: Deus Ex: Human Revolution

Best Action/ Adventure Games: Tomb Raider
Best Fighting Games:
Mortal Kombat
Best First Person Shooter: Bioshock
Best Platforming Games:
Rayman Origins
Best Sports Games: NBA 2K12

Those aren't necessarily my top 10 favorite game, as I really loved New Vegas, The World Ends With You are probably in my top 5. But they weren't my favorite in their genre.




Toss up between MGS4, The Last Of Us, Uncharted 2 and SMG

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

Dark Souls on PC in glorious 1080p / 60 fps is the gotg by a wide margin for me.



Ongoing bet with think-man: He wins if MH4 releases in any shape or form on PSV in 2013, I win if it doesn't.

Very difficult cause I love Red Dead Redemption to death, but Galaxy is still a little bit higher on my list and I guess it won't get put down so quick.



Annubis II
Pong Toss
Escape From Bug Island
Ninjabread Man
Family Party: 30 Great Games

These are under appreciated masterpieces (as in POS)

Seriously though- ill come up w my list of great games soon- but a list of the worst games in this generation might be fun too



top 4 fps games for me would be Dust 514, Crysis 2, Killzone 3, and BF3 in terms of multiplayer with DUST 514 being the best.

Ratchet and Klank All 4 One was another great game.

I think Starhawk was a great 3rd person game for MP and SP.

I also really liked the infamous series as my favorites for sandbox type games. But I just started playing saints row 3 and that is a lot of fun, but they are slightly different games.

I will permaban myself if the game releases in 2014.

in reference to KH3 release date

I can't believe people is actually saying that The Last of Us is the best game of the generation, I mean of course it is good, but Uncharted is WAY better... it must be the current "fever" with tlou.

my categories:

Best First Person Shooter: Killzone 2
Best Third Person Shooter: Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception
Best Fighting Game: SOULCALIBUR V
Best Action/Adventure Game: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
Best Platforming Game: Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction
Best Racing Game: Mario Kart 7



My best game is yet to come out. Grand Theft Auto V and i know it will be my favourite game so that won't be included yet. 

Best Action/ Adventure Games Uncharted 2 & Batman: Arkham Asylum

Best Fighting Games Don't care, never really played any fighting games

Best First Person Shooting Games RAGE & Bioshock

Best Platforming Games LittleBigPlanet & Super Mario Galaxy 

Best Sports Games Don't care, don't play sports games

Best RPG Games Does Borderlands count? Otherwise, Mass Effect 2. I hardly play RPG's or JRPG's. 

Best Third Person Shooters Vanquish

Best Racing Games Mario Kart Wii & Burnout Paradise

Best Strategy Games XCOM

Overall Best Games I'll have to pick 5. Red Dead Redemption, Far Cry 3, Minecraft, Super Mario Galaxy and Uncharted 2



Xbox One, PS4 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)
