Just wanted to post the games I recommend for each of the gaming genres for anyone who's interested. [IMPORTANT]: I'm not just mentioning the new games that came out. . . I'm rather pointing out all the awesome games that are a must-get in my opinion. As a result, this list may contain older games too (but only from 2-3 years old) {FPS}: 1. Call of Duty: Black Ops (PS3, 360, PC) ~ I don't think I even need to mention this one. Same enticing, adrenaline-driving gameplay and dazzling graphics we knew from Modern Warfare 2, but which are even better in this valuable addition to the series. Although some people might suffer from the slightly poor PC port of the game especially from the possible problem of stuttering. This is one of these games that make you lick your lips just by looking at them and also explode while playing them with fascination. 2.Halo: Reach (360) ~ Sadly, I have not played this game long enough to give a reliable utimatum, for the fact that I DON'T own an Xbox. But from what i played and what i saw at my friend's place, I could safely say that this game is one of the definitions of the word Awesome. From the exhilirating mutliplayer to the mind-blowing variety of weapons etc. , this game definitely stands out from the crowd. {Action and Adventure}: 1.Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker (PSP) ~ If you still don't have it (:S) , GET IT!!! Period. NOTE: Another great alternative would be Metal Gear Solid: Guns of the Patriots (PS3) ~ I know it's OLD!!!! (sheesh) 2.Batman: Arkham Asylum (PS3, 360, PC) ~ This is probably the best game I personally played since the beginning of this year. Maybe because i'm a big Batman fan. . . . . but whoever possesses the sufficient mental ability would've loved this game from beginning to end. The story's nothing to write home about (maybe SLIGHTLY cliched), but the gameplay is absolutely amazing just like the arsenal of awesome gadgets you are given. 3.Assassin's Creed 2 (PS3, 360, PC) ~ A true masterpiece, this game will reel you in with its compelling storyline, well-executed detail to the world around you and numerous abilities and weapons supported by excellent controls. I mean, come on, won't you just love the idea of climbing and jumping between buildings, and assassinating traitors with all of your Assassin-like talents? Only an idiot would turn down this game. {RPG}: 1.Dragon Age: Origins (PS3, 360, PC) ~ This is my favourite genre and I gotta say this game didn't fail to wow me, but absolutely the contrary!!!!!! But first, If you'e not an rpg fan. . . . this one might prove inadequate and sometimes even too challenging as the darkspawn obliterate you easily. . . . But on the other hand, the story is absolutely EPIC, perhaps one of this game's stronger points. The controls are really good and you can conveniently pause the game at any point in a battle to review your strategies. The only real flaw in the gameplay is the abilities/magics which might be a little confusing especially at first. The graphics are mild, but that isn't important in this game. There is TONS of replayiability value here (if you're even able of finishing the game at all) because you can take 6 different paths of the story. . . . . . . TIP: This game needs ALOT of planning and strategy = taking your time, just sayin' though. 2.Dissidia Final Fantasy (PSP) ~ Absolutely amazing game, especially considering the PSP's limited ability. The cutscene at the beginning will dazzle you, and if you're a devoted Final Fantasy fan, will probably blow you away!!! All of your favourite characters (atleast most of them) appear in this NEW "formula" of a FF game. I'm talking about the all-new one-on-one battles!!! Leveling up is pretty much a major factor (as always), there are alot of great features and the battles are very awe-inspiring. The one and only down-side, or rather MAJOR down-side. . . . . . . . (I'm talking too much so i'll leave this in my future review of it) 3.Final Fantasy 10 and 12 (PS2) ~ If you own a PS2, simply get these two games ;) {Sports}: 1.FIFA Soccer 11 (PS3, 360, PSP, PC) ~ The best available soccer game IF you're a soccer fan (which I personally am). {Racing}: 1.Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit (PS3, 360, PC) ~ I have generally failed to find a fault in this game after I tried it. Gameplay and steering are very responsive and the graphics are mouth-watering. . . . . . . In my opinion, it's the best racing game of 2010. {Fighting}: 1.Tekken 6 (PS3, 360, PSP) ~ Although I don't play alot of these games, this one absolutely captured my heart (lol). This game can be much fun even and especially if you play it alot, on account of there being a large roster of characters too. - I might improvise on this list later on. . . . The reason I even wrote this thing might either be just because of the free time i have, or even because I wanted to practice my reviewing skills by writing really short reviews (I kinda have fun doing them). Slyfox, Over and Out. . . . . . . . . . . . NOTE: I am a GameSpot veteran and have been using it for a long time, but have only recently thought of making an account :P
