Team Ninja didn't have anything to do with the story. And Just what makes it sexist? that Samus takes order from a man? by that logic the army is full of racist peopleLordpils said:

I doubt FFXIII was worse than epic mickey, butother than that good list. The halo reach comment made my heart stop, and I don't evven HAVE a 360
I wish Final Fantasy XIII was higher on the list. Then again, I didn't play Kane and Lynch 2, so I suppose I'm missing out on crappy stuff.
When he said halo reach i kind of agreed. I felt it was a huge let down in the halo series even though being a huge fan series. I appreciate that they wanted to change things up and deviate from the classic halo formula, but I loved the classic halo formula. Also I feel like it was geared towards new players and that bothered me with the main example being reticle bloom, which equalizes skill. I also agreed with fable 3 because fable was brilliant, but it's sequels have been degrading.
On a sidenote, anyone else interested in a Zero Punctuation for Minecraft?

All I can say is: I really liked Kane and Lynch 2. I know it's not that great gameplay wise, and I know this is very crucial to games. But they really nailed the aesthetics and atmosphere. Near the end, I was sick of shooting the droves of enemies, but my feeling of misery and frustration mirrored the characters' feelings. While the story wasn't excellent, I was able to sympathize with the characters and actually care about their destiny. Games should be fun, but I was attuned to the gloomy mess that was Kane and Lynch 2.
It wasn't a great game, but I wouldn't call it the worst of 2010.

Wow...that. Music. Was. Annoying. As. Fuck.
Please, I beg you, NEVER DO IT AGAIN. The poetic speaking was a nice twist, but for the love of no one cut the fucking music out.
Maybe we all just got used to the silence, but I seriously couldn't focus on what he was saying with that music in the background.

I think there's some anger in his putting BS2 on the list. Probably worse games but it's twice as bad when a company you know can do a good game just does a few changes and basically sells the same game over again. If it was a totally new game maker making BS2 as a new game no one had seen before, it wouldn't have been on the bad list.
Nice to see Amnesia on the top list

This top list is pretty much very similar to my own,which is quite a coincidence.
Spot on vid nonetheless.

Red Dead Redemption? Yahtzee didn't exactly shred it, but... I thought he gave Mass Effect 2 more praise (which, BTW, has only been awarded GoTY by Eurogamer - now the Brits have to tell Americans which games are the schizz).
Fair enough Team ninja had nothing to do with the story, but you wanna know what makes it sexist? How about Samus going from silent protagonist who is effectively just an asskicker to a whining emotional wreck who won't do a fucking thing until she's told it's okay. A submissive character who won't shut the fuck up and who cracks under pressure at the first sign of conflict they not only retconned Samus they retconned her into something she is the exact opposite of. Other M's story was melodramatic bullshit Metroid prime 3: Corruption had an emotional moment at the end that put every line of dialog in Other M to shame. God dammit I want to stop talking about that piece of shit!Srdjan Tanaskovic said:
Honestly, outside that review I have never heard that song before. It sounds like it came out of the early 40's which at times can be some hard music to locate.Sonicron said:
I'd suggest narrowing a search around jazz from that time, or it could possibly be a cover of a rag done by a jazz band really.
What was with the music in the background? I hope that doesn't become a habit, now. Anyway, I agree with you, as usual.
I agree, although I did not expect Just Cause to be number one. I seem to remember you saying that you enjoyed playing Mass Effect 2 so much that you wanted to keep playing it when the time came to write the review.
