Deserves own blog. New single.

F*ck yea Aerosmith.

Apparantly, I am lava's lover according to my friends. Why? Well, here's a story.

About MineCraft.

It all started one day on my friend's server. We just started, got wood, made wood things, and were exploring around a bit. My friend comes across a lava pool in at a hole in the side of a hill, next to a pool of water. I went to go see where it was, but accidentally fell into it as I did not see it. I died, of course. Since then, almost all deaths in MC have been lava-related. I don't know how. That's how I became lava's lover.

I bring this up because of another lava story I experienced a few days ago. Probably 2. Anyway, I was in this really nice cave system, looking for some diamonds and stuff to bring back. There was a hole that went straight down into a pool of lava in the middle of a large room of this cave. I saw a slime fall into it, but it survived, so I carefully went down to get it and get slime balls. As I climb back out, a ninja spider attacks me and knocks me into the lava. I was sad and upset, but also impressed of the spider's cunning. Still wasn't fun though.

MineCraft is good, but it would be more enjoyable if I had a non-sh*tty computer. I get on average 7-8 FPS with my computer! With OptiFine mod installed! Yippee!

But anyway, that is the story of my love for lava. Coming soon, an album review which no one reads you bloody maggots.

It's a complete piece of rubbish.

So, today's blog is about Deuce and how much Electrodes are useless against things that know how to attack with decent stats.

Let's get it crackin' with Deuce.

Awesome guy, album coming out on the 24th, I listened to all the songs on the album, and here are some reasons as to why you should listen to him.

1: He does a great mix of rap and rock without sacrificing anything. Tracks like "America" and "Nobody Likes Me" are pretty epic rock/rap songs for example.

2: He's got some insane lyrical abilities (such as in "Help Me" -- Make a new clip 'till these kids download it in their sound profiles, sh*t I ain't going down with my hand on my dick while the next World Trade Center blows up quick).

3: The track "I Came to Party" features Travis McCoy.

4: His songs contain so much insanity in such an awesome way, it is near impossible to not be entranced (Such as "Let's Get it Crackin'").

Now go get this album once it's out, it's a gewd one.

Now onto Electrodes. They suck and can't do anything. I caught one in Team Rocket's hideout in SoulSilver, he barely did anything except waste my time and experience I could've used for other Pokes. I replaced it with Electabuzz, was an incredibly good decision.

That's all I feel like talking about. Go home.

It's gonna be at E3. The bloody game shall be at E3. This is the most exciting thing today, and today involved Linkin Park releasing a new single and information about their upcoming album coming out in June, Deuce releasing a music video for "Help Me", and a pretty good day of school.

Let's rejoice!

Gabe Newell is...

Side note: This blog is close to pointless and I should be doing homework that is already late.

First order of business: it's Easter. I only give a sh*t about the candy. I'm atheist. I ate most of a white chocolate rabbit.

Second: I have returned from a vacation that took place from March 31st to yesterday. It's my spring break, so I didn't miss anything, and my last day of spring break is tomorrow. So it was sort of like a vacation and a weekend. I went to Florida, it was very warm, and I did some swimming. I also played a lot of Kid Icarus and started a new file of SoulSilver. SoulSilver is always fun, and I'll talk more about Kid Icarus later. But yes, awesome vacation and stuff.

Now I have to discuss this awesome but very, very innapropiate song, so there's your heads up. By Deuce, a former member of Hollywood Undead. The name of the song is "Let's Get it Crackin'". It's like a party song. Party rock (not LMFAO sh*t). Party RAP rock. And it's pretty intense.

RELEASE THE KRAKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!!!

OK now I get to talk about Kid Icarus.

AND IT'S LIKE BLOODY AWESOME. Epicness. Serious. BUY IT if you own a 3DS. It's the best 3DS game yet. I give it a 9.5 for it's awesomeness. Couple minor nitpicks and a few control quirks though, but don't hamper the awesomeness.

One of the best parts of this game (aside from the fact I rock online) is the characters. I can't talk about it without spoiling people... so here's a spoiler tag.

[spoiler] Hades is a massive troll and he is just lulzy and one of the best villains in ever. Viridi is epic and boss. Hewdrew was insane and full of win. And everyone else is pretty beast also. [/spoiler]

Yesh. Kid Icarus: Uprising brought awesomeness.

OK now gtfo.

Because I'm not in the mood to write a review for a video game, I'm writing my second album review. And this time it'll be a good one. Of course, the last one was pretty good also, but this will be gooder. Even though only a few people will be bothered to read this, probably.

This particular album is the 4th album by Shinedown, titled "Amaryllis". For most who don't know Shinedown, they're a rock band who became popular... sometime within their career. Their song, "Second Chance", was very successful on pop radio and charts. It was also the first time I heard them, and they're pretty good, yo. So here's a review of their new album. Enjoy it.

Track 1: Adrenaline

The album starts off with fast-paced, energetic pure hard rock. And boy, does it pump me up. I need to go like do something epic listening to this song. The energy is pretty insane, man. It's what makes this song so awesome, and the lyrics are not bad either, fitting the high energy of this song and it's awesomeness. A perfect way to start off this album, and ensure our bodies are ready.

Track 2: Bully

The lead single from the album, released back in January (one of the first new songs I heard in 2012, possibly the first). This song focuses on a major issue of bullying. Lyrically, it's a great song. Instrumentally, it's still a great song. If you don't like this song at first, give it a couple more plays, this is one of those songs that gets better the more you listen (though I thought it was a great song when I first heard it), and overall, a great song that focuses on serious issues but still manages to be damn good.

Track 3: Amaryllis

Title track time! If you don't know, an amaryllis is a flower. There's a deep meaning about the title, but I forgot. I'll remember someday. But anyway, it's a softer track and is about life. I think. It's a pretty good track, in sound and in lyrics, just because it's so... interesting. Intriguing. The song's styIe is not usually something I'm a fan of, but I really like this. So very nice.

Track 4: Unity

This is most likely the album's second single, it already has a music video. The intro has pianos, violins, and guitars, as it smoothly makes its transition into the lyrics, which are about being united, hand in hand, everyone being connected and feeling welcomed. It's a wonderful song, so beautiful. It's great, man. Great.

Track 5: Enemies

Aww yea, back to the hard rock. Basically, it's about a person who has done something wrong, and is coined an enemy. Sort of reminds me of Devour from their last album, and that song was an attack towards George W. Bush. Could this be an attack at Obama? Oh boy, I hope it is. Sounds like it could be. That devious, presidential bastard. Romney 2012!

Track 6: I'm Not Alright

THIS SONG. THIS SONG RIGHT HERE. Best song on the album. Just simply dabess song ever on the album. Not only featuring violins (I love violins with rock, it's epic. Possibly why Afterlife by Avenged Sevenfold is my second favorite song of all time and His World from Sonic 06 is so bloody brilliant), the song is so upbeat with lyrics that are slightly darker... well, not really, but still, awesome. It's about a crazy person who is not in the best condition, but he doesn't care and feels awesome, loving life despite the problems he has. This the greatest song on the album, and if you don't agree, you are not alright.

Track 7: Nowhere Kids

...and this is my second favorite song on the album. Why? Bloody listen to it (when you get ahold of the album or the songs). More awesome rock, the transition betweem verse to chorus where he fires some words at you pretty rapidly then tells you he doesn't give a f*ck if you take his picture, and the intensity of this song just makes this a really epic song. It's a rather political song, sort of like Devour. Also makes me think Enemies isn't political. Hmmm... maybe it still is. Anyway, dabess policial song ever, except for Words I Never Said by Lupe Fiasco. He's got ya there, Shiney.

Track 8: Miracle

Another very soft, beautiful song. One of the good things about Shinedown, they can do hard rock and beautful songs like these very well. This is about a person who is the miracle to him, who makes everything better, and is a great song.

Track 9: I'll Follow You

The song begins with pianos. Up until the chorus, a very nice piano. The song is very self-explanatory, and another beautiful track. It's so lovely, even if it's slightly cliche. But Shinedown does cliche well, because this song is a boss track, like all previous tracks so far. Impressive, Shinedown. Impressive.

Track 10: For My Sake

A very nice song. Basically, a song about someone who is interfering with his life (possibly an ex-girlfriend... most likely, now that I think about it...). It's simple, yet effective, plus it sounds great. They do a really good job with a theme often done by many artists. Good show once again.

Track 11: My Name (Wearing Me Out):

The intro is pretty boss. And the verses man, so gewd. A song similar to For My Sake, while this time talking about the love who is a total b*tch and drags him down, and he's simply fed up with it. Strong, heavy, but the lyrics are what truly shine down (pun not intended, but I wish it was, because it's genius... well, the 'down' part was intended). Anyway, I love this song for it's energy, heavyness, and the awesomeness of the lyrics. With one more track, it seems as if there will be no weak track...

Track 12: Through the Ghost

...and I was right. So much good with this song... it's beautiful, perfect way to end the album... I can't describe this song, it's how amazing it is... really, look up this song. Please. Obtain this hold album.

This album is a masterpiece. March brought upon albums by great artists: My Darkest Days, ¡Mayday!, and Shinedown... and Shinedown's latest effort was not a failure. So with this, I bestow Shinedown's newest album a score of 9/10. I am pleased.

And with this, I leave to listen to¡Mayday!'s new album. Night peeps.

Heyo guise. Today's boring blog is brought to by Shinedown's new ablum, "Amaryllis", which I have downloaded and am listening to it at the moment. So far, on track 3 (which shares the name of the album), and so far, _am pleased. Album comes out the 27th. Don't forget about My Darkest Days' album, "Sick and Twisted Affair", and¡MAYDAY!'s album, "Take me to your Leader", both dropping March 26th.

Now, let's talk more about... whatever. Why not video games?

Well, I haven't been playing much beside some 3DS games. I played and beat Metroid Fusion, one of the 10 3DS Ambassador games. Still need to collect every item, an my friend, MWH, demands I beat it within 2 hours and 30 minutes (and beat Metroid Prime also), but I probably won't do that. But anyway, I give the game an 8/10. It was a great game, and leaves me craving more Metroid. I'll probably try to get Zero Mission soon, or maybe play Prime, which I own. Fusion was awesome because of the secrets you could find, being pretty well hidden in some cases. Plus the bosses were damn awesome, and it had some pretty cool platforming and an interesting story. Two complaints though: first, the game is short. My first playthrough was about 4 hours, which for a GBA game back then, was probably fair, but now seems short. I'm also rather bothered by this because of how much I felt the game could've done (I also heard Zero Mission was short, but I still want to pick it up, it didn't stop me giving Fusion an 8/10). Second is how annoying it can be to find some paths necessary to beat the game. I can understand for secrets, but at a few points in the game, I felt like I could not advance anywhere and somehow managed to get stuck and needed to start over, until I found that one block I needed to blow up. Rather annoying, but in the end, Metroid Fusion is pretty boss.

The other game I've been playing (having recently gotten back into after a match with a friend) is Pokemon White. Yep, White. Yea, Pokemon is awesome. I'm working on making a superb team of awesome, and have some Pokemon already ready, and a bunch more I'm planning to train. Past couple days were mostly spent mass breeding (mainly Mudkip and Deino), looking for good natures. My current team ready for battle is Cloyster, Galvantula, and Porygon2. I have a Charizard I need to get to level 100, and of course some others I must train and prepare. Don't mess with Cloyster, he's an OP motherf*cker. Don't mess with him. Or me. I 6-0'd someone. I'll do it again.

That's probably all I need to say for now. G'day.

Album review sometime this week. Probably.

Let's get right into this thingy with #10. Hopefully people won't mind what I chose to put above a certain game previously mentioned...

#10: Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D (3DS)
Released: June 19th
My Score: 9

That's right. It's true. I think Ocarina of Time is better than Skyward Sword. GET@ME. GET ON MY LEVEL. But anyway, story time: back in 2010, when the 3DS was just unveiled, I saw many of the interesting games soon to arrive, such as the long-awaited remake of Ocarina of Time, called Ocarina of Time 3D, and I was like "lolnope", but then I thought this would be a good time to play a Zelda game for the first time (the fanboys are getting mad...), but then I thought "why not buy on Virtual Console for $30 less?" And so I did, and it was so good I got it on 3DS. Still worth it. I have no regrets.

#9: Rayman Origins (PS3/Wii/360/Vita, TBR for 3DS/PC)
Released: Nov. 15th (PS3/Wii/360), Feb. 15th 2012 (Vita), March 20th 2012 (3DS), March 29th 2012 (PC)
My Score: 9

So much good with Origins, I have no idea where to start. Should I begin with the tight controls and difficult but fair levels? Maybe the beautiful, cartoon graphics the game boasts? Maybe the insane music and undeniable charm this game possesses? Or how about the fact this game is truly the game Rayman has deserves since the Rabbids took over and got their own bloody spin-offs? No matter how you approach this game, it is truly epic and deserves more sales than it got. Not many people played it and it deserves everyone's money!

-

-

-

#8: Cave Story 3D (3DS)
Released: Nov. 8th
My Score: 9

If you haven't heard of Cave Story at all yet, well, then you are a disappointment to society. Just leave right now. Do not pass go, do not collect $200 (unless you give it to me). What Cave Story 3D is is a 3D remake of this indie gem, which also recieved ports on WiiWare, DSiWare, and Steam. Cave Story 3D is it's only retail release, and while it's the priciest of the versions available, it's still worth the price of admission. Awesome old-school platforming with difficulty to match and an awesome story with great characters means a great game anybody should play at some point: you have a couple different options. You know, speaking of indie games...

-

-

-

#7: MineCraft (PC, TBR for 360)
Released: Nov. 18th (MC 1.0.0), Spring 2012 (360)
My Score: 9

Some may argue this game did not come out in 2011, but it is when it came out as a full release and no more "Alpha" or "Beta" stuff. But anyway, MineCraft is a true gem, a revolutionary epic, something everyone is required to try to be cIassified as living. You can Mine! Craft! Build! Fight! Farm! Live! Eat! Kill cows! Plus, deadmau5 plays it! Celebrity endorsement! There is so little wrong with this game, and it's so addictive. Did I mention it has multiplayer? And is getting LEGO sets? Yea... it's that awesome.

-

-

-

#6: Sonic Generations (PS3/360/PC/3DS)
Released: Nov. 1st (PS3/360), Nov. 3rd (PC), Nov. 22nd (3DS)
My Score: 9 (Review)

How do you follow up the great Sonic Colors while delivering a solid 20th anniversary game? Keep the awesome gameplay and throw in CIassic Sonic! A true modern cIassic!... wait, I already said that? About who? Well tell that fat plumber I'll shove his head down the freakin' toile--

Sonic Generations includes the high-speed 3D thrills of Sonic Colors and the 2D awesomeness of the ol' Genesis cIassics, within beautifully remade stages from past games in the series from Sonic 1 to Sonic Colors, with possibly one of the greatest soundtracks known to mankind and alienkind. F*ck off, Beethoven, no one likes you.

-

-

-

#5: Mario Kart 7 (3DS)
Released: Dec. 4th
My Score: 9.5

We're in 9.5 territory now! And yes, Mario Kart 7 is higher than all of those games previously mentioned: Uncharted, Batman, Zelda, MineCraft, all of 'em. That's saying something. Mario Kart DS was my previous favorite game in the series, so I expected MK7 is be the new champ. Certainly, I was not disappointed. Improved item balance, some great stage designing (minus Maka Wuhu, of course...), epic online, lack of that F*CKING CLOUD from MKWii, flying and underwater racing, and most important, Shy Guy... so much to like about the handheld edition of Mario Kart! So epicness.

-

-

-

#4: Portal 2 (PS3/360/PC)
Released: April 19th
My Score: 9.5

YES PORTAL 2! I had to. This game seems to be close to the top of everybody's favorite games of 2011. It's that Gaben magic. It's worth noting this was one of the first games I got when I got a PS3 (the other 2 are Sonic Unleashed and LBP2), and boy was it epic. It's easy to see why it's one of the best reviewed games of the year; the puzzles are genius, the characters are hilarious, the story is enthralling, the areas are incredible, and portal mechanics are just so fun to mess with... you don't hate this game. You just don't. It's impossible. I've probably said that a million times in this top 20, but this time I'm serious... this game was, indeed, worth the weight.

-

-

-

#3: Pokemon White (and Black) (DS)
Released: March 6th
My Score: 9.5 (Review)

How does a DS game manage to show all these other games up? It just does, shut up. This game is so much awesome. I mean, sure, it's still very similar to previous games, but they're so good, and this game's changes do make it better and enhance it. Battles feel lively, the Pokemon are actually pretty cool, the story is outright amazing with an awesome villainous team that don't do stupid sh*t, and etc. Pokemon White has quickly become my favorite Pokemon game of all time, and it seems it'll stay that way... wait, Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 are coming out? Disregard what I just said, those will be better.

-

#2: Kirby's Return to Dream Land (Wii)
Released: Oct. 24th
My Score: 10 (Review)

I've given 2 games this year a perfect 10. Why? BECAUSE THERE WERE 2 AWESOME GAMES THIS YEAR! The last games I gave 10s came out in 2004 (two that year as well!), and Kirby is lucky enough to be blessed with this 10. Why? This game... is flawless, in my eyes. There are no problems I noticed. The gameplay was spot-on, the abilities were awesome to use, the graphics were colorful, co-op was fun, and so much replay... this game has no problems. Sure, it's easy, but I'm not bothered by this. It's so fun, so pure, so good, I can't hate it. A perfect game. Now, how do you beat a perfect game...?

RECAP FIRST THOUGH TROLOLO.... assuming you don't know how to scroll past this.

#20: Rayman 3D

#19: Star Fox 64 3D

#18 Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition

#17: Uncharted 3

#16: Kirby Mass Attack

#3: Pokemon B/W

#2: Kirby's Return to Dream Land

And now, for number 1... right after honorable mentions!

Plants vs Zombies: Came out on DS in 2012. A fun little strategy game.
de Blob 2: Colorful, yet fun platforming-like stuff. Not a bad game.
Kirby's Epic Yarn: It came out in 2011 in Europe. I almost included it.

...and worst game of 2011.

Splinter Cell 3D: F*cking mess.

OK, now let's get #1.

-

-

-

#1: inFAMOUS 2 (PS3)
Released: June 9th
My Score: 10

That is correct. My #1 game of 2011... is inFAMOUS 2. I had bought the first inFAMOUS shortly after getting a PS3 (and before it went free for a bit on PSN...), and I loved it. Great action, awesome city to explore, all that jazz. The sequel of course I needed to get. It was so bloody awesome and blew my expectations away with Niagra Falls-like force. Why? Better action, a brighter and vibrant city, an awesome story with 2 amazing endings that made me almost want to cry, and so much more. But... is it perfect, like Kirby? No. It is not. Why is it #1? Well, the small flaws this game has enhance the positive things. They make them worth it, make 'em better. Besides, I had a better experience with this game over Kirby anyway.

InFAMOUS 2: Best game of 2011, now one of my favorite games of all time.

That is all. Go away.

Awwww yea!

I'm finally doing this thingy. I'm making my Top 20 Games of 2011! I made the intro last blog, so I'll copy/paste it here.

Now, let's discuss the rules of this particular list: this is my opinion, I don't care if you don'tagreewith me. If you dare so try to argue with me over my personal opinion, you suck. Also, I have not played every game, so don't get pissy at me because I left out your precious Skyrim. I did not play that, nor do I plan/want to. And finally, #f*ckempire. Now get out of here, you rascals.

Let's not hesitate and move on with... number 20!

-

-

#20: Rayman 3D (3DS)
Released: March 22nd
My Score: 7 (Review)

We start off our (actually, my) list off with Rayman 3D. It is the the twenty millionth port of Rayman 2, and this one is based off the Dreamcast version (supposedly, althought it has more resemblance to the iPhone port). Of course, porting a game too much is not a good thing, but fortunately for Rayman 2, it hasn't gotten too bad, yet. And we're getting Rayman 3 soon! In HD! Anyway, Rayman 3D: one of the 3DS's launch title, and still pretty fun.

-

-

-

#19: Star Fox 64 3D (3DS)
Released: Sep. 9th
My Score: 7.5

Star Fox like, died man. He doesn't get as much love as he used to. Between Star Fox 64 and it's 3DS remake, he had 3 games that weren't as well recieved by the fans (thought I don't have a proper opinion, I've yet to play them). But now Star Fox is now almost maybe back, I think! Featuring enhanced graphics with great 3D effects, addicting on-rails shooting, and those memorable characters (yes, even Slippy), Star Fox 64 3D is still a great game to play anytime!

-

-

-

#18: Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition (3DS)
Released: March 27th
My Score: 8

Yea, the early part of this list is littered with 3DS remakes. It'll get better, next game won't be a 3DS remake game (though I don't think many will like the next choice anyway...). This game was supposedly what prevented the 3DS's launch from going under and completely causing the system to implode. Although the launch was still weak. Anyway, this game was a remake of a series filled with them (and even got another one that summer in the form of Arcade Edition), but that's OK, because it's Street Fighter. Fun fighting and works very well with the 3DS's controls. I can't wait for Super Street Fighter IV Turbo Arcade 3D Edition On Ice!

-

-

-

#17: Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception (PS3)
Released: Nov. 1st
My Score: 8

OHHHHH NOOOO. Uncharted 3 is only #17. I'm "Insane in theBrain". I'm in "Trouble" from the fanboys, and they'll think I'm a "Troubleseeker". They won't let me "Rise Up"... OK, enough Cypress Hill jokes... I should just... "B-Real" *slapped* OK, OK... well, Uncharted 3 is personally my favorite in the series thus far (only played 2, not the first one yet), because of an intense story (one of the best of 2011), great action (some improvements over the last game!), great characters, and fun multiplayer. It's a great game, and PS3 owners must at least play the series.

-

-

-

#16: Kirby Mass Attack (DS)
Released: Sep. 19th
My Score: 8

Yay! Kirby! Everyone loves Kirby! But what happens... when you put Kirby... and Pikmin... into a blender? Does it blend? It doesn't, please don't do it, it'd be a horrid mess. I know this from experience. It was not pretty... BUT ANYWAY, great game. Controlling 10 Kirbys is chaotic yet so fun. It's so colorful, so fun, so addictive, so crazy, and SO MANY KIRBY! YOU CANNOT FATHOM THE AMOUNT OF KIRBY! YEA! But yes, Kirby is a winrar.

-

-

-

#15: Batman: Arkham City (PS3/360/PC)
Released: Oct. 18th
My Score: 8.5

Batman is only 15? Good god, am I insane? Yes. I am. In the brai-- *shot* I'll be honest, I'm more of a Marvel fan than a DC fan, and am personally not a huge Batman either. But the game is certainly a great game. I mean, the atmosphere is epic, the combat is fluid, the bat gadjets are sweet, and the voice acting is 2 cool. Really not much else to say other then I should hide now...

-

-

-

#14: LittleBigPlanet 2 (PS3)
Released: Jan. 18th
My Score: 8.5

LBP2 is epic. One of the bestest co-op games evar. Online epicness. Stage creation. Character customization. What's more fun than jumping into a stage with some friends or a complete stranger? And with so many options for making your stage, it's almost endless! It's crazy, man! Nothing is more fun than being a jerk to others though. Hahaha.

-

-

-

#13: Super Mario 3D Land (3DS)
Released: Nov. 13th
My Score: 8.5

It isn't a Nintendo platform until Mario makes a debut! It was worth waiting for this game, definitiely, and was one of the biggest pushes for the 3DS to save it from it's slump and greatly boost sales. Blending the 3D gameplay from Mario's 3D outtings of Super Mario Galaxy and such, as well as putting a cIassic spin onto it with many throwbacks and gameplay elements from Super Mario Bros 3, it was truly a modern cIassic. You can't top that. Well, at least not until the next Mario 3DS game.

#12: Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (Wii)
Released: Nov. 20th
My Score: 9

This is the part where I run for my life. BECAUSE SKYWARD SWORD is not in my Top 10. Yea, get mad CL. Get mad you other Zelda fanboys. Mwahaha! But yea, great game. One of the last, great Wii games. As a person who never played Zelda until about 2 years ago, I was on the fence about getting this game, but I finally did. 'twas worth it. Epic motion, beautiful graphics, awesome action, and all that jazz. Any Wii or Zelda fan should play it. Now please don't kill me. Please. I'm a nice guy.

#11: Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 (PS3/360/Vita)
Released: Nov. 15th
My Score: 9

Capcom does it again! A rereleased of a game just for moneys and some new characters. But I was a smart consumer and didn't buy the first edition once I bought my PS3. U mad? Yes, I bought 2 fighting games this year, and I'm a person who rarely plays fighting games outside of Super Smash Bros. But boy, is this sh*t intense. Fast, flashy, and just crazy awesome. This is certainly a fighting game for the ages. Plus it has Deadpool, therefore awesome.

...CHIMICHANGAS.

And that ends part 1 of this list. Part 2 is here:
