[QUOTE="dracolich55"]Am I the only one who thinks Bioshock is the best game this gen?

Nope it's easily one of the best games I've played and also my favorite.

I hope Bioshock Infinite lives up to the hype. I loved Bioshock 2, but it just fell a little flat with me.

Dynasty Warriors 7 - It got rid of the Renbu system from 6 which was nice, but IMO everything else about the combat was a huge step in the right direction. They just needed to add move sets that tied in standard and charge attacks and it had been pretty awesome. I like the old combat system too but now the game is truely dumb down, it is now just a pure beat'em up and you don't even have to worry about your allies anymore. One aspect I loved about Dynasty Warriors was the feel of fighting along side an army, that feeling is now gone. Post Smack Down vs Raw 2006 games - I just like the old combat system a lot more, and in my opinion the path they're taking towards realism ruined the gameplay. DLC - Almost never done right, I saw the abuse coming right when it started, there are a lot of idiots even on this very forum that defend it, and expansions are much much MUCH better.

I thought Bioshock 2 was better than 1 in many ways, but the story was a little flat and just the second time to Rapture wasn't as powerful as the first time. I thought the gameplay was much better in 2. I loved being able to use plasmids and weapons at the same time. I really hope Infinite is great as well. So far it looks fantastic, I guess we just have to wait and see.

dracolich55

Perhaps not my favorite but i love it.

i still think System Shock 2 was better though, although i think BioShock is FAR superior to System Shock 1.

if everything goes along the plan, BioShock Infinite could possibly be my favorite game this gen.

There is nothing to agree on, it is YOUR biggest disappointment. Besides, who the hell thought that was going to be good?

top 5 in order would have to be:

  1. Metroid Prime 3
  2. Skyward Sword
  3. Demons Souls
  4. Resident Evil 5
  5. Fable 2

Something like this I guess.

Well some people also found it disappointing. And the only people who love it are fanboys who probably never played a game that's 12+ before.

It is a disappointment, I can agree. However, it is one I love to death. They are fixing it quite nicely. This patch has been a great step forward.

Not really. Maybe in your opinion. And I'm only talking about the SP campaign portion.

I'd rather take CoD's fake as hell over the top ludicrous action pack FUN anyday over BF3's horrendous asinine ridiculous faux "realism."

Fable 2, they just had to make a better fable 1 but that was too much to ask for it seems. UC1, I've loved all of the ND games I've played but this one, quite a bad game in my eyes.

These 3:

  • The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword: I can't believe it took Nintendo five years to make this crap. It was a failure on almost every level. The graphics sucked. The motion controls required CONSTANT recalibrating. The "overworld" was segmented. Despite having orchestrated music, the game had no memorable tunes. Link doesn't look heroic AT ALL. There is so much I hate about this game, I won't bother explaining the rest.
  • Resident Evil 5: Not a bad game, but co-op severely damages what could have been a great game. The inclusion of Sheva as a co-op partner at all. Having co-op also meant that they had to get rid of attache case of RE4. Now we're stuck with an inventory system where an egg takes up the same space as a gatling gun. While I liked the African setting, it wasn't really scary. I think the DLC "Lost In Nightmares" is a great model for what modern Resident Evil should be.
  • Metal Gear Solid 4: I was so hyped for this game. It's the biggest reason I bought a PS3. As a huge fan of the series, I appreciate that Hideo Kojima tied up all of the storylines. He just didn't do it very well. Why does the game have 5 seperate installs? Even for MGS, the cutscenes were overly long and self-indulgent. This problem was exacerbated by chapter system in which we watched the chapter ending/mission briefing/chapter opening back to back. That's a long time to go without actually playing the game. It was pointless to use stealth this time around. Stealth is suppose to easier than going "guns blazing". In MGS4, it's the exact opposite. It's much easier to "run and gun" than to use stealth. This is due the Drebin Store and your access to a sniper rifle so early on (not to mention endless silencers). It turns out that nanomachines are responsible for every thing in MGS.

Alan Wake. An open world phychological thriller with cutting edge graphics and a day/night cycles. In the end I got a blurry, linear third person shooter with crappy shooting mechanics. Thanks Xbox 360. Even the enhanced PC version couldn't fix the bad design forced by aging hardware.

Killzone 3 - i love the universe, the helghast, the war, everything else was complete bs, and the multiplayer was :lol: i loved Killzone 2 to bits, so obv my hype for number 3 would be through the roof, i even hyped the story ever since the story trailer, but boy was it a flop, the graphics are some of the best though still today

Also Unreal Tournament 3, words cant describe, i loved the Mods on ps3 though, everything else sucked bad at launch

Assassins Creed: Revelations

I can only speak to the 360 version, I agree it's a little blurry, but I found the light 'em up shoot 'em up gunplay to be quite satisfying. Not saying you're wrong, but it was good for me.

Thank God they didn't go for open world.

Grand Theft Auto IV held back due to the Xbox 360.

Multiplatforms in general being held back due to the Xbox 360.

All Xbox 360 exclusives.

The fact that our lord and saviour Chad Warden has left the Youtube land since 2008 and hasnt been seen since.

Kinect.

All Xbox 360 exclusives.

Microsoft as they betrayed the Xbox fanbase and joined the Casual Fanbase.

In short - Microsoft and everything they have done this generation has been a disappointment.
