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:
