Didn't you know, Iceglow only sees PS3 fanboys everywhere he goes.Originally Posted by Rase
I wasn't aware that Dragon Quest IX, Rune Factory 3, No More Heroes 2, Halo Reach, Alan Wake, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, Professor Layton, and Mass Effect 2 were PS3 only. What have I been playing them on then I wonder?
To stay on topic though, my favourite games of the year would have to be Heavy Rain and 3D Dot Game Heroes. I haven't played a lot of Gran Turismo 5 (getting it on Sunday), but I'd have to say it's pretty much everything I'd hoped for so I'll include it as well.
I'd probably have included Starcraft 2 but the longer I played it and followed it the less pleased I was with some of the decisions made by Blizzard regarding the management of it's online community and custom maps. Great game, but they've got the stink of Bobby Kotic rubbing off on them and I don't care for it too much. I want to like it but I have a hard time praising a game when I don't feel a company is putting it's fans first. So yeah, I'll stick with the three titles above, and only partly because it will annoy Iceglow. There are still a handful of games from this year that I haven't played but would like to though. But even if it turns out I really liked them it's been a slow year for great games if you ask me.
I'll also mention some great games that weren't of the video variety though. Puzzle Strike and Flash Duel, both made by David Sirlin are easily two of the best games I've played all year. Probably topping my choices above for the most part to be honest.
