Which Game Caught Your Eye This Year?
As the year of 2008 comes to a close, it’s good to have a look back at all of the games that have been released throughout the year and to decide on which one is the best of 2008.
Throughout the whole year we’ve had some awesome game releases on the Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and Nitendo Wii, however, I would have to say that the later part of the year was definately the best as there were dozens of new releases from September to November, those games have really done a good job of keeping me and millions of other gamers entertained during the year.
Here are just a few of the awesome games that have been released in the past year:
Lost Odyssey – I thought this game was pretty good, although the combat of the game was not my favorite it was still good gameplay, but also, extremely long, 4 disks, really took some time to get through it all.
Condemned 2 – Even though the game is rather brutal and not for the feint of hear, the complex puzzles and hand to hand combat makes the game really good. The game is rather dark and jumpy at times, it really brings you into the game.
Battlefield: Bad Company – This would have to be my favorite Battlefield game yet, and the only one with a campaign to it. I absolutely loved the way you could shoot a whole in a way using a grenade launcher then run from building to building blowing walls as you go.
Lego Indiance Jones – I am a huge fan of all of the Lego games, they are great fun and amazing to play. Although the Lego games are very short, the humour added to them is awesome.
Lego Batman – Pretty much the same as Lego Indiana, with a few new features, It’s still an awesome game. All fo the Lego games so far have been amazingly fun to play, they are great for the whole family to enjoy.
Civilization Revolution – I only played this game a few times on the Xbox 360 but I thought it was amazing, alot different from any other Civilization game.
Devil May Cry 4 – Alot of people I know have said that this game is awesome, but I don’t see it. I played the demo on the Xbox 360 and thought, “hmm, alot of jumping”. I thought the game was pretty repetitive, not my favorite game really.
Mario Kart Wii – Although I am not a great fan of the Mario games, I did like this one. Especially when you use the Wii steering wheel, it makes it a great game to play, a must play for any Mario and Wii lover.
GRID – I hated this game, although the graphics were good, the whole feature of being abkle to rewind time was just stupid.
Burnout Paradise – The only problem with this game is that it’s repetitive, you do alot of races and then get a new license, once you get that license you have to repeat all of the races again, just a little bit harder to get another license. Overall I thought the game was good for a drive around but the campaign can get rather tiresome after a while.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl – Even though I only played the game once or twice it was great fun. The simple controls and fast gameplay makes it really fun to play as a party. The ability to jump around as Kirby makes it a great and funny game, great in a party.
Metal Gear Solid 4 – This game consists mainly of movie scenes which after a while get boring and too long, but once you get to play the game you’ll forget all about them. Once your into the game it’s great fun to play and the graphics are good.
Rock Band – Brilliant, I have always loved the Guitar Hero games, but when this was released I just had to get it, I loved the set list and loved the new instruments, awesome game and a must play for any music game lover.
Rock Band 2 – This game is brilliant, although it;s basically the same as Rock Band 1, it comes with a wider and more expanable set list, awesome to play and great fun in a group.
Guitar Hero World Tour – This game, like with Rock Band is a awesome game, the new instruments were great but I thought the set list really pulled it down, it depends on your taste but I wasn’t amazed by it.
Grand Theft Auto 4 – You can’t really complain about this game, all of the other GTA’s have been awesome but this one managed to top the lot. Outstanding graphics and the ability to change the way the game ends depending on the choices you make just makes it even better. With the addition of new content coming next year, I’m looking forward to it.
World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King – This game was brilliant, with a new level cap, a new class, new professions and new raid content. This game will keep me entertained for many hours.
Gears of War 2 – Brilliant, just one word needed really. The amazing graphics and storyline kept you in the game and the non stop blood and action kept you amazed for the whole thing. This is a must play for any Xbox owner and I am looking forward to the third one.
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed – With all the hype before it was released, I was not majorly impressed once it actually was released. The whole look and gameplay was great but the storyline was really short, plus with no online play it was really only a few days of playing and then thats it, it tends to sit on the shelf gathering dust now.
Left 4 Dead – If you are afan of the Counter Strike and Half Life games, you will love this, it’s created by the same people but this time it’s got zombies. You work as a team of 4 people to escape from the city. I personally love the emphasis on team work all through the game, plus all the guns and weapons are rather realistic.
Fable 2 – In one way this game was really good, and in another it was ok. The storyline, new graphics and ability to change the whole game by making one decision is awesome. But the length and difficulty of the game was a let down, I found it to be alot shorter than Fable 1 and it was also alot simpler as you didn’t seem to have to kill any major bosses. Even though it has it’s downsides, I still think that it’s a great game.
Mirror’s Edge – Some might say this is a bad game, too much like Assassins Creed, but I loved Assassins Creed. I thought Mirror’s Edge was a amazing game, the graphics of the game were fantastic, although the cut scenes were rubbish, they looked rather cheap comic book stuff, the gameplay was oustanding and it’s just a whole new style of game.
Far Cry 2 – This game was absolutely awesome, the graphics were great and the ability to change the game as you play, also while coping with malaria, it just makes the whole game more intense to play. Your have a great range of weapons, plus the ability to start a forest fire to take advantage of your enemies is great. All these things made the game absolutely great, one of the best of 2008.
Call of Duty 5: World of War – This game had alot to live up to, it had to beat CoD4 which one a number of awards this year. I didn’t like CoD5 as much as 4 because it went back to the World Wars instead of staying in the present. But that aside, the gameplay and graphics were awesome, although I thought it didn’t quite live up to the reputation left by CoD4.
All of the games listed above were really fun to play and kept me entertained all year round but it’s come to tell you what my game of the year is, although it’s a really difficult decision. Although it’s a hard decision, I would have to say that Gear of War 2 is my game oif the year, simply because of the constant fighting and action, plus with it’s great graphics and storyline, it makes it the best game of 2008. What’s your game of 2008?
