Well, 2009 is finally coming to an end:o and it was indeed a very interesting year. Many great games, shocking news, lots of surprises... and 2010 looks even better:D

I will be leaving tomorrow for two days, so i'll just say in this blog Happy New Year to everyone, and good luck in 2010:D

And... thats all. I'll finish with a list of my favorite games of 2009 (remember that i don't like ps3:P)

5. Wii Sports Resort (WII)

4. Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars (DS)

3. FIFA 10 (X360)

2. New Super Mario Bros. Wii (WII)

1. Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story (DS)

:D

A little late for the blog but oh well:P

Just wanted to say merry christmas to everyone in GameSpot:D

and happy new year since i won't be here that day, 2010 is going to be gr8 =D

Hi:D

it's been a while since i made a blog, but now might be a good time to do it.

well, I am finally out of school for the winter break:o which means i will be a little more active here in GameSpot, and i'll be playing more games and all. These last days were really difficult for me to get online because of my final exams and some other things, i was not really active the last week but now that i can forget about school i hope to be here more:D

In other news, i got xbox live =) and been playing in it for some time. i have a few games but if you want to add me, my gamertag is in my profile.

I also made a new theme for my GameSpot profile, even though it's not really "new" because i had a theme about it since i joined GS, and if you don't know what it it, it's my favorite mexican futbol team, América:P I have the banner and avatar up now, and will put the sig later this weekend. It is kinda simple, but you know i suck at designing:P

And well, it's almost Christmas:D hope it is a good one this year, i also want to get a few last games this year and really looking forward to some of 2010, especially...

and :D

As for my next blogs, i am thinking about stopping the top 20 lists again :/ it's just too hard thinking about them now and i felt i was just showing the same games over and over and it wasn't a very good idea after all:P Though i still want to make one last list, and want to make it a big one, probably with all the games i've ever played or something like that:o

I think thats all:P hope that blog wasn't too long. Oh and i still won't be too active in the forums until Monday.

Thanks for reading, comment if you want

BAK1234567890'S TOP MULTIPLAYER GAMES 5-1

5. Wii Sports (WII)
My Score: 8.9/10

Wii Sports is like the perfect game to enjoy with your family, friends, or even people you don't know:P The 5 sports (except Golf, but that is just my opinion:P) are simple and really FUN to play, and Wii controls give it originallity, which is awesome for a game like this. I personally think Wii Sports and its sequel Wii Sports Resort are some of those games that do not need online play to be fantastic, you only play them with anyone you know and notice how good they are:D. Damn, you even feel your arms hurt after playing tennis or box for a while :p

4. FIFA Soccer 09 (X360)
My Score: 9.1/10

Of course, as a futbol/soccer fan I couldn't leave this series without a mention:P I mean even if you don't like the sport, the game is very well made, updated with lots of teams, leagues and tournaments and very simple so that anyone can play it:) More into the multiplayer mode, I don't really know what to say about it, I haven't stopped playing them since 2004. It is addictive, excellent to pass time and especially in a country where futbol is a very popular sport, you can have fun with all the people you know =D. You can create tournament as well as other nice features that make it one of the games I've liked the most in all my life.

3. Mario Kart Wii (WII)
My Score: 9.1/10

Once again, this game makes it to the top positions of my list. It has simply the best online on the Wii, and not only that, it adds a lot of features to the Mario Kart series and it is too addictive with many challenging stuff in the different competitions. It also lets you play with your Mii and increases the number of participants in a mario kart race to 12, some really interesting factors of this game. Either with friends or with anyone, this is one of the best options to buy on Wii and maybe one of the best multiplayers ever.

-

2. Soul Calibur 2 (GC)
My Score: 9.3/10

Soul Calibur 2 is another of the best memories I have with videogames. Especially for its multiplayer modes, that have a lot of replay value and it is very fun to play with friends. Characters, stages, weapons and pretty much everything on this game is badass, while the controls/gameplay make it feel a great game to keep playing for a while, and also it has different unlockables that make it even greater.:D

-

1. Super Smash Bros. Brawl (WII)
My Score: 9.5/10

SSBB, what can I say of this game? Offline multiplayer is amazing, almost perfect if you ask me. Yeah, online is sometimes laggy and that is the most important issue of the game. But really, when I think about it and ask myself which game I had the most fun with other people, this one is the first to come to my mind. It is a fighting title with a great variety of the best Nintendo characters to choose from, crazy & extremely fun gameplay, quite easy to play for everyone and the game modes are just awesome. Either if I want to play a simple 4 players battle with final smashes that make it epic, or prove skills in a 1vs1 Final Destination fight, or even play tournaments and a bunch of other amazing experiences, Super Smash Bros. Brawl is a quality game and a true masterpiece, that I love to play with friends and have to put in the #1 place of this list.8)

Well, there it is:D

BAK1234567890'S TOP MULTIPLAYER GAMES 10-6

10. Guitar Hero 3 (X360)
My Score: 8.5/10

Guitar Hero is the only game in this list that I have only played in multiplayer mode:P And really liked it. To be honest I don't even remember if GH3 was the one I played, but I am almost sure :p Anyway, it is a great game with good songs and awesome gameplay, that you can enjoy with friends and it can be very competitive. I think this is maybe the best music game series, and of course with good multiplayer and online modes so the fun never stops:).

-

-

-

09. Mario Strikers Charged (WII)
My Score: 8.7/10

Mario, soccer, and online play… can there be a better combination than that?:P Seriously, this is one of the best games I have ever played and like all the Mario sport games it has a mad gameplay with the different Mario characters, items and more. Online is not the best but pretty good for the Wii and is quite addicting with the leaderboards and more. This is for sure one of the best options to play with other people on Wii and maybe the best sports game for the console so far.

-

-

-

08. Mario Party 2 (N64)
My Score: 8.8/10

Another game that I can't leave out of this, my favorite game from one of my favorite series:D. Mario Party 2 had an amazing multiplayer, it improved a lot of things from the previous game, and had an incredible fun factor that I think no other Mario Party, or party game at all, has ever been able to beat. The mini-games were some of the best, as well as the other parts of the game, it has a competitive and very fun multiplayer that I hope some day can be brought online with the Wii. Overall this is one of my favorite games in this aspect and one of the best N64 titles.

-

-

-

07. Super Smash Bros. Melee (GC)
My Score: 8.9/10

The sequel to the first Super Smash Bros. that improved in almost every aspect and is one of my most memorable games ever :D. This is a competitive and really fun to play game, my personal favorite for the GameCube. It had incredible characters and stages as well as comfortable controls. And it introduced multiplayer modes such as tournament that is one of my favorite things of this series. This is indeed one of the most entertaining titles ever and playing it with 4 other people is insane:o.

06. Mario Kart DS (DS)
My Score: 8.9/10

MKDS is possibly one of the most impressive games in the handheld history. It was the first Mario Kart and one of the first Nintendo games to have online, which was not bad and really fun. The multiplayer in general is great and one I personally love to play, with all the craziness of mario karts on a portable system and able to play with several players. Just incredible:).

That will be all for now. Thank you for reading and hope you like the list so far:) Feel free to leave a comment, and also the last part of the list & prediction game results will be posted on Monday

I decided to do this a few minutes early:P Here's the 2nd part of my list with places 15-11. Like always hope you like it, and remember...

First of all thanks alot to everyone that entered the prediction game, good luck And also before i post this list, please remember that it is just my opinion and i put games i played and enjoyed the most in competitive multiplayer.

BAK1234567890'S TOP MULTIPLAYER GAMES 15-11

15. Bomberman Blast (WII)
My Score: 8.1/10

Bomberman Blast is actually the only bomberman game I have played, but I am quite sure the rest of the series is just as good =D it is a really cool multiplayer game and I especially enjoyed the online. Overall I think this is one of the best, if not the best WiiWare game out there, you can always have lots of fun with friends or with anyone in the various game modes :D.

-

-

-

14. Burnout Revenge (XBOX)
My Score: 8.2/10

Yes, this game got to my list again:o This time because of its multiplayer, which I consider one of the most impressive of all time. Competitive and enjoyable even with two players which so cool.:D It's really one of the best experiences in games I have played and I recommend it to anyone who wants a good title on the xbox.

-

-

-

13. Metroid Prime: Hunters (DS)
My Score: 8.2

MPH was one of the first DS games to have online, and used it very well. Even when I don't like FPSs too much, I recognize this one is pretty cool, with many great elements from the Metroid series and new features, good graphics and both local & online play are decent. It's just one of the best NDS games.

-

-

-

12. Mario Kart: Double Dash (GC)
My Score: 8.4/10

Mario Kart games are just incredible, and Double Dash is not the exception. I have already said a lot about these games in previous lists, but they are real good. Double Dash's multiplayer is also a great mode either in battle or race, and even though this doesn't have online it is even better than most racing games and 2 players in one kart is a nice feature, plus many characters and karts that make it one of my all time favorites!

-

-

-

11. Mario Tennis (N64)
My Score: 8.5/10

Another Mario masterpiece in the gaming industry, the best tennis game I know so far, and one of the top N64 titles. This is indeed one of the games I enjoyed the most when I was starting to get more into gaming. You can play with up to 4 players, with some creative stages, and funny stuff. With a lot of fun, this is a game you sometimes don't want to stop playing and it is even better with more people so it totally deserves a high place in this list:D.

That will be all for now, thank you for reading:D Comment if you want and i will post the next 5 games on Friday.

Hey everyone:D

Well like i said, here is the first part of my Top 20 Multiplayer Games list:o with positions 20 to 16. First of all thanks alot to everyone that entered the prediction game, good luck:D And also before i post this list, please remember that it is just my opinion and i put games i played and enjoyed the most in competitive multiplayer. I have considered both offline and online features, and i am a Nintendo gamer so expect alot of that:P

Each part of the list will have 5 games from lowest to highest, with my score (for the multiplayer in this case) and a little comment about them.

Anyway, on to the games...

BAK1234567890'S TOP MULTIPLAYER GAMES 20-16

20. StarFox Command (DS)
My Score: 7.6/10

Here is the number 20, a DS game that is one of the best ones on the handheld. StarFox Command has an awesome gameplay and many game options that include wi-fi online multiplayer. A very complete game that everyone can enjoy and compete in an exciting online. My personal favorite Starfox title with hours of fun alone or with other people.:D

-

-

-

19. Halo (XBOX)
My Score: 7.8/10

I actually thought for a while if I should or not put this game on the list:o If you know me well, I'm more like a Nintendo gamer, and not a fan of Halo games, but the first one was the only one I liked. Even if I sucked at it:P the game itself was actually not bad so I thought I'd give it a mention. The game's theme is nice, graphics and sound were excellent and it was real good to play with other people. The stages, weapons and elements combine to make an actual decent Halo game:P I did not like the 2 sequels that much, but this one was revolutionary in some way:D.

-

-

-

18. WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$ (GC)
My Score: 7.9/10

This game is, well, what its name says:P a mix of all types of party mini-games with some craziness and the multiplayer feature, which is what brings it up here in my list. I thought this was a fantastic game idea and very well made. The mini-games are very simple to play, you basically learn it in 2 seconds and it becomes incredibly fun and addicting. Every mode is so cool and you can compete with your friends in a lot of forms, making it one of the most unique GameCube games. I personally loved this game and totally enjoyed it in its time. 8)

17. The Conduit (WII)
My Score: 7.9/10

This game has a very good online play for the Wii and is a great addition to the console. I have played it for some time and really had fun with the online (which I usually don't in First Person Shooters). Even if The Conduit 1 player mode isn't so good, I think it deserves a place in this list for the multiplayer. It does indeed have a few problems and some glitches, but this doesn't affect for the game to play well most of the time, its graphics and sound are also really good for the system and I think it adds a lot to this awesome game:).

-

-

-

16. Super Smash Bros. (N64)
My Score: 8.0/10

The first SSB game for the Nintendo 64 always brings good memories:D With not too many game modes, characters and stages as the new ones, but still had a lot of fun and entertainment to offer, I remember making tournaments with my friends and never getting tired of it:P such an awesomeness couldn't be left out of this top 20. It was maybe my favorite game at that time and stayed like that for many years, it was just so fun to play with all the Nintendo characters in a competitive and epic battle game, and things like the items also add to the fun. Simply one of the best games ever made!

There it is! Thank you for reading and i hope you like it so far:D Comment if you want, and i will continue with the next 5 games in two days

NEXT TOP 20 LIST

In other news, i am already working on my top 20 multiplayer games list. A little difficult to do since i'm considering all the games i played and many of them are great:P Some details are that it is gonna be based ONLY on the game's multiplayer and it WON'T count co-op, because i mean multiplayer that can be played like human vs. human:P i will count both online and offline multiplayer. Also, like always, note that i've played probably less than 20% of the well-known Microsoft and Sony titles. Just remember this in the predictions game, which will most likely come after this blog...

That's all, thanks for reading and comment if you want

i just reached 50,000 posts:)

also, thanks to evryone that voted for my next Top 20 List. "Multiplayer Games" won so i will be working on it asap. "Mario Games" also came close, i will make it after that.

Well, that is all:P thanks for reading and comment if you want
