Forums - Gaming - TOP 3 MULTIPLATFORM GAMES THIS YEAR mega thread

Game - I AM ALIVE

What is it? - "The game takes place in Chicago after a major-scale disaster with a yet-unknown cause, and tells the story of a man named Adam[3]. The gameplay is said to focus more on character interaction and problem solving. The game will also challenge players to make "life-changing decisions"[4]. The game was announced at the end of Ubisoft's E3 2008 conference." - from wikipedia

Game - BRUTAL LEGEND

What is it? - "Brütal Legend follows the story of Eddie Riggs (named for Eddie the Head, the mascot of Iron Maiden, and Derek Riggs, the artist who created him), who is living as a roadie for a Heavy Metal band. The game begins one night before a gig. As Riggs is tuning a guitar, an accident happens and he starts to bleed, his blood dripping onto his cursed belt buckle, which bears a strong resemblance to Motörhead's Snaggletooth emblem. Before he knows it, the beast on his buckle has come alive and transported him into a Heavy Metal and Nordic fantasy inspired alternate history where demons have enslaved humanity." - from wikipedia

Game - EAT LEAD: THE RETURN OF MATT HAZARD

 

What is it? - "Matt Hazard pits players in the role of the title character, a "legendary" gaming hero who is "returning to glory" in a new video game, some 25 years after his debut game and 6 years after his last game. In reality, the Matt Hazard character is in his first video game, with a history made up by D3 Publisher to chronicle the character's rise and fall in popularity. The Return of Matt Hazard marks Hazard's fictitious "comeback" to the gaming scene.

The game itself is to be a parody of action-gaming cliches. The October 2008 debut trailer was done as a Behind the Music spoof called Inside the Game complete with Jim Forbes narration. It chronicles Matt Hazard's successes and hardships, including Matt claiming he "nailed that English chick who raids catacombs", directly referencing Lara Croft, stating it's "how she got the job".[1] It also is the first real game in a fictional series mirroring the progression of the Duke Nukem series of games, from early 8-bit to modern consoles." -from wikipedia

I am really hyped about all 3 of these. They are all multiplatform, and 2 out of 3 of these have have a good deal of comedy (matt hazard, brutal legend)

 This is just my opinion. So what are your top 3 of 2009?

(I might update this a little more)

 

Anyway, this looks to be a great year!

Why I'm excited:

I Am Alive - I have disaster report, a ps2 game about a sinking island which you have to try and escape. I am Alive looks to do the same and better for a western audience, with it's open gameplay.

Brutal Legend - An open metal world where you battle enemies with a magical guitar and your literal 'axe'. Great soundtrack, jack black, nice looks, a unique story, and the mastermind behind the game, tim schafer ensures it will be one of the best games to come out this year.

The return of matt hazard - Looks damn funny, and from the creators of the underrated psp gem Dead Head Fred. Oh, and it has Neil Patrick Harris and Will Arnett. What other game let's you battle 2D, and 3D enemies from the past with a watergun and the crazy power-ups along the way?

I'm pretty sure I won't pick up any of these games. I hope you'll enjoy them though.

They're worth a rent, at best.

My list:

Resident Evil 5
Call of Duty 6: Modern Warfare 2 (I got that right, right? :( )
Street Fighter IV

Also worth mentioning: F.E.A.R 2: Project Origin and Bionic Commando (hehe).



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

My top three are:

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Assassins' Creed 2
Pro Evo 2010 (it just edged out HAWX)

Resident Evil 5
Street Fighter 4
The Witcher

"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

RE 5
SF IV
CoD 6



My top 3 I will pick up:
