Alright, with nothing of note dropping between now and December 31st (Dead Nation possibly), lets do up a list of best games?
These are mine, feel free to copy the format.
This is just my opinion. I havent played a couple notables (GOW III, RDR, Heavy Rain, AC:B)
Sports Game - NBA 2K11: First @K NBA game I played. Attention to detail was insane. Love reliving Jordan's best games.
Honorable Mention - NHL 11, Fifa 11
PSN Game - Joe Danger: Games the closest thing I can get to Excite Bike
Honorable Mention - Deathspank
RPG - Record of Agarest War: Super classic SRPG. Funny storyline
Honorable Mention: Star Ocean: The Last Hope International, Fallout: New Vegas, 3D Dot Game Heroes
Open Environment Game - Mafia II: Storyline MADE this game.
Honorable Mention: None (haven't played RDR yet)
Action Game - Spiderman: Shattered Dimensions: 2nd best comic book game after Arkum Asylum.
Honorable Mention - Dynasty Warriors: Strikeforce
Platformer - Prince of Persia: Forgotten Sands: Much better game than the one from 2008, alot more platforming.
Honorable Mention - None
Biggest Disappointment - Final Fantasy XIII: It was a good game. No where near as good as it should have/could have been.
Honorable Mention - Resonance of Fate, Nier, Medal of Honor
Best Re-issue - Medal of Honor: Frontline: Man, this game is as hard as it used to be.
Trophies and new control scheme
Honorable Mention - Final Fantasy IX
FPS - None: They all disappointed
Game of the Year - Hard decision, but going off of what I spent the most time playing, my GOTY is Star Ocean.
Feel free to add your own categories. I probably forgot some great games...
