The ____ Of the Year Thread!

How about an award for shittiest moment in an otherwise brilliant game?

My vote goes to leading EVA through the fucking forest as she eats all my food and I can't find any animals to kill or magic mushrooms to kick in MGS3.

Naw, this was a brilliant commentary on the economic burden placed on males, and the hypocrisy of feminist ideals in the context of the dating ritual. Also, you could have just punched the bitch's lights out and dragged her fat ass through the forest. Or, kill guards and loot their corpses for rations.

Sl1p, I'm glad you gave props to Second Sight.

Yeah, I'll admit that it wasn't as entertaining on the action level as something like Psi-Ops, Second Sight was unique and intriguing in it's own right. The fact that within 2 weeks of it's launch you could order it from EBGames.com for $20 bucks with a bonus DVD and free overnight shipping speaks about just how bad the game flopped.

I just checked-out another soon to be flop from work tonight. Blinx 2. Yeah, the original was terrible but after reading some interviews with the developers on Gamespy along with some previews, I have good faith in this game. If World of Warcraft will let me, I'll give it some time tomorrow.

this made me laugh.

Thanks Sl1p.

[Clash!]

Whoa buddy, this is the trump card! Emo Boy hair cut, tight 80's sweat shirt, hand drawn anime characters pinned up on the wall, a framed picture of japanese characters, and a rock waterfall on his nightstand. All he needs now is a full body pillow with a a anime girly print and he has knocked himself out of the Emo Anime Fanboy ball park.

Nevermind, it's mad boring. It attempts to have a plot too featuring CG cinemas of angels...and cats..and something about time shards. I have no clue.

I keep it in the closet.

I hate to say it, but Dave's right. For being such the Halo 2 whore that you are, there are way more flaws in that game to be disappointed about than Half-Life 2, which at least felt complete. If these are all in your opinion, whatever, but since you try to pass your opinion as fact all the time well, your wrong.

Half-Life 2 > than any game you listed.

P.S. Though I have to admit, your list makes sense.

Impressed the shit out of me.

Hay kids! Grammar break!

your - possessive modifier for a thing belonging to the person you are directly addressing; e.g. your hat, your opinion.

you're - contraction for "you are"; e.g. you're wrong, you're going to need to brush up on basic english.

Next time: Putting an apostrophe S on non-posessive plurals gives baby Jesus herpes!

[Do You Like Erotic?]

While I agree with the sentiment, nothing will change.

I disagree. Halo 2 was executed to perfection. Think about it, what is Halo? It's nothing but a shooter. Halo is an exercise in mindless shooting in tactical situations, wrapped in an incredibly deep plot. It is nothing more, nothing less. In that, in delivered perfectly. Not that it was hard to do, but Bungie completely stomped the original Halo and created one of, if not the best multiplayer FPS ever.

I already went over my major problem with HL2 and to me, those were big reasons.

And in terms of completeness, the ending of Halo 2 while abrupt, is a perfect stopping point. If the game continued, they would have had to wrap up the huge Earth arc in just a few levels, then people would have complained that it was rushed. Half-Life 2 ends on yet another mystery which sure as Hell doesn't help considering that HL has always been vague on the plot anyways. Halo ends on a new begining and you know where it's going considering all the situations that are setup at the end. Unfortuntely, nobody bothered to pay attetion throughout the game so we get a whole shitload of people whining about how the ending sucks.
