HAY GUYSSSSS

I like video games

do you guys like video games

let's post our favorite video games of the year

I don't do buildups so let's start with my GAME OF THE YEAR

definitely fallout 3. it also wins my shooter and rpg of the year awards too, mainly because it is the only new example of those I have played this year, really

handheld game of the year for me is definitely Dragonball Origins, it is fun stuff

most badass design and overall polish in a game goes to dead space

gta iv wins "best game that was not as mindblowingly awesome as it was first made out to be so people shit on it but is still really good"

best ps3 exclusive game goes to mgs4

uh I think that's it

oh yeah best game on my cellphone goes to battle reversi

it was either that or sudoku

edit: I guess fable 2 should get 360 game of the year

wii game of the year goes to

ahahhahahaha nevermind

    game that could have been a lot better if they knew what they were doing outside of the basic concept goes to Mirror's Edge

    on that note the DLC looks like it'll fix every issue I had with it

    how about game that you had no idea the multi player was going to turn out to be so much fun. Because I played a lot of Bionic Commando's multi player.

    My game of the year was probably Fallout 3 though, maybe the new PoP game but i have not played it enough yet to really say.

    When the cashier tried to sell me a copy of 'My Whores and Me' I was elated, but when I found out the cashier just had an accent I was immediately disappointed. Not to be discouraged, I later found that 'My Horse and Me' was really a sleeper hit.

    I don't think I need to sell this, but here's the Amazon.com description:
    Amazon.com wrote:
    Almost every girl at some point in their life, dreams of riding or owning a horse. They share a special friendship that is nurtured through riding, training and caretaking. This unique horse experience is now captured in My Horse and Me. In the most complete and most realistic horse experience simulation on the Wii, you can name your very own horse and groom, train, and compete in equestrian competitions, just like in real life.
    Give you and your horse a custom look! Pick from an array of horses and riding outfits. Take pictures of you and your horse throughout the game and share them with your friends. ESRB Rated E for Everyone.

    I know I spent a lot of time playing video games, but thinking back on it I guess I didn't play very many different ones

    and of those I did play, most of them are more than a year old

    uhhhh. gta iv was really good. tf2 came out this year, right? then that's definitely the 2008 game I put more time into than any other. my memory sucks I guess.

    I really liked Dead Space, Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia, and CrossworDS. And I'm digging Gears of War and Hotel Dusk, but those are both from last year. Spore Creature Creator was pretty fun, haven't picked up the full game yet, eventually.

    It seems like one of those games I will play when I just want to zone out, like Spider-Man 2.

    I would give GTA4 the award for the first half of this year, and Fallout 3 the award for the second half of this year
