lol, he's still criticizing FFXIII when he didn't even play it. What a douche.
Yeah, because a game failing to hold someones attention for a few hours concludes it can't be criticized since they didn't finish it, right? Wait, that's moronic. If a game can't hold a players attention for a few hours then it's an appalling game and should be mocked, as is the case with FFXIII.
What world do you come from? He didn't play it because he can't stand a good game, and apparently neither can you.

I come from a world, far away from your own, in which the concept of subjective opinion realms free. This concept allows people within my world to decide for themselves whether they find a game to be "good", based on their own experiences that they can then discuss via a medium such as The Escapist. It would appear you come from a world ruled by savage Trolls that force you to ignore this concept in favor of demanding everyone else perceive your own concept of "good" as fact, without introducing any counter-arguments or logic.

Nope, its the March from the Funeral Music for Queen Mary by Henry Purcell. An awesomely sombre bit of music from the 17th century Londoner.

Dead rising 2 is the second best game of the year? seriously?

I haven't heard of it before seeing this review, went ahead and tried it, it was a turd!

The game started out fun, but it turned out to be one big never ending series of escort missions, with a timer, with retarded AI!

And why the hell does my steel crowbar break after 20 whacks?

They made a game which has the ingredients of a winner and made it into fail. The most amazing thing is that the game would be so much better if they simply REMOVED things rather then added new things. Seriously, all they have to do is // some code and get a game that is actually good. This isn't a programming failure, its a design failure and it should be listed as the second worst game of the year. Even the force unleashed 2 wasn't as big a turd.

I can't believe Yahtzee gave such a turn second place on best game of 2010.

I was actually going to agree with you on halo reach...and then fable 3...Kane and lynch 2 was a horrible game, but for me Fable 3 and Halo reach truely did kill the franchise for me. I wont buy another lionhead game and won't touch another bungie game because of those 2.

You're dead to me Yahtzee.

Metroid Other M was fantastic. Otherwise I agree with his list of bad games of the year, but I just don't see how you could hate Other M :/

couldn't agree more with you Yatzee!

i've played all of the games ecxept: Amnesia

(but i was kind of hoping for assasin's creed brotherhood to be on the top 5 good side)
He disqualified Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and New Vegas because they're too much like their predecessors.

I knew right away he'd be joking about Halo Reach... I mean, in Just Cause 2's review he says that it even made wanton destructino boring which doesn't sound like a GOTY to me, and he says that Halo Reach actually stood up well on single player. Just Cause 2 is so bloody fun though, and I've only played the demo

I've noticed how critics say that Metroid Other M had bad acting and made Samus all whiny and submissive, while fans praise its gameplay and say that you're supposed to follow orders from your superior. Here's my question: Why didn't Samus just say, 'But Dad, there's no way my suit's going to protect me from the harsh environment of that planet (or whatever it was). Shouldn't I put on something more protective?' and then reluctantly obey orders if he says no, instead of just blindly going there without being adequately prepared.

hahaha, kayne and lynch is that bad huh?
I thought he was serious for a second when he said halo reach...
But I personally hated Just Cause 2.....
I knew he was going to put it as the worst game ever reviewed, since he even flat-out said, "There's NOTHING fun about the game."

Opinions: while they can't be right or wrong, there are some really shitty ones. For an example, reflect on your own opinions.

And what defines a "shitty" opinion? When you disagree with it?
