yes, i have done one of my resolutions already. Today I did number 8. ask out the girl I like/tell her i like her. soo what happened? she said she liked someone else. poop... but I can only appreciate her honesty and not lie to me like other girls have. and we're still good friends. only difference will probablybe i'll have a sick gut whenever we talk at school. But you know, i gotta move on. what will make that harder is that there are no other girls that stand out to me like she did. eh.. moving on.

So what's my GOTY of 2009? well, let's go in order of my least favorite to most favorite, my favorite being my GOTY.

Shadow Complex (XBLA)

This isn't to say it wasn't bad. It was definitely good. Everything else was just better :P anyway, if any of you are metroid fans, this game will feel similar to you. The story is pretty funny and it has a nice twist ending, because youcan't expect it. Now, I haven't played a 2D Metroid game, but this game makes me wish I did, because the gameplay is pure fun. This game kept me entertained for quite a while. It's a great XBLA game worth the 800 points.

Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks (DS)

I wanted to finish the before I made myGOTY,but I know my #1 will definitely not change and I didn't want to keep you all waiting too long. Spirit Tracks is actually a very enjoyable Zelda DS title, definitely better than Phantom Hourglass. Early in the game, the puzzles are relatively easy, but by the 4th temple, the puzzles are very creative and sometimes difficult. What makes it a but difficult is the Tower of Spirits (I think that's what it's called, correct me if I am wrong). The Tower of Spirit's puzzles really makes you think since you have Zelda with you this time around and she's necessary to complete that part of the tower. So far, I''m really liking the game, and I'm currently stuck in the Tower of Spirits after the 4th temple. I hope to finish it in the near future... maybe.

New Super Mario Bros. (Wii)

Boy, does this game bring me back. It reminds me so much of Super Mario World, Super Mario Bros. 3, Yoshi's Island, and others. That's what made me hooked on the game until I beat it. I loved the level designs, they were definitely more creative and were what we haven't seen before in a 2d platformer mario game. and let me tell you, it's a blast with friends playing with you. Because it makes every death funnier (at least for me :P). Overall, it's a blast to play, single player and multiplayer.

Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story

It's the 3rd game of the Mario and Luigi series and it's best one out of the 3. The story and humor is wackier than ever, the gameplay is fantastic with the changes they made, and the music is very fitting. What surprised me is that Bowser plays a bigger role than Mario and Luigi, and that worked very well. I only wondered what would happen next throughout the whole game. Truly a fantastic game.

Batman: Arkham Asylum (360)

This is probably the only superhero game I have played and a superb one at that. I loved the look, I loved the Joker, and I loved the gameplay. My favorite thing to do would be the combat. It's cool to see how many moves Batman can perform to take down all of the enemies. The story was a great one too because it was a classic Batman story. Challenge mode is really... challenging, especially the combat and the predator extreme. In the end, the story is plain fun to play and listen to, and the gameplay can really get you hooked.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (360)

Let this be known, I suck at shooters. But I never had that much fun dying and dying again to become a better player. the single player campaign to me was nothing special but the ending cool! where the game really shines is the multiplayer, if none of you caught that yet :P Many different kinds of matches, the titles, emblems, killstreaks, and challenges help what makes the multiplayer so great. Playing with some friends was probably the most fun I have ever had on a game online. and even though I'm not that good, it's still freaking awesome.

AND MY GOTY IS...

The Beatles Rock Band (360)

It's the Beatles, which I love, and they're on rock band, which I also love. 'nuff said.

Okay, if you want a better explanation why Beatles Rock Band is my GOTY, tell me in the comments. It's really late where I am and I'm about to fall asleep. So leave a comment!
