Quote:"I haven't really played in game this year, but there's no way that Fallout 3 could be the best game this year. Just no way at all. I mean...I mean...come on, man! Bethesda, man!! OH GOD FLASHBACKS TO DECEMBER 8, 2003! *breathes heavily into paper bag* It's all okay, man, just keep bashing that Fallout 3, man. Nothing upsetting the apple cart today, boys, let me tell you. *ahem* Right anyway, I don't have a single clue what I'm talking about but I'll continue offering opinions anyhow, because you know."
Hah, Fallout 3 deserved it then and still does. :)
Quote:Mirror's Edge isn't game of the year, I'll tell you that. It's great fun when everything clicks, but there a many moments of extreme frustration scattered around every level.
Saint's Row 2 is up there and so is Left 4 Dead, maybe toss Dead Space into the mix as well, but Fallout 3 has a great combination of open-world design, fun gameplay, and atmosphere atmosphere atmosphere that put it over the top.
Dead Space: Heard the name, don't really know anything else other than that it involves zombies in some way.
Saint's Row 2: Same... GTA clone, correct? GTA's kind of fun.
Left 4 Dead: Watched some gameplay of it online. Looks okay, for FPS fans. I wouldn't buy it.
