The Nerd Stash: “The PS3 marked a turning point in the industry, and among the sea of popular titles came the rare games that are worth more now than ever.”
I don’t collect games for their value I collect games I enjoyed playing. Many games I own are worth a lot of money but they must be games I want to play for me to purposely collect them. Most of this list isn’t games I would enjoy. I may have some of these games because I bought my friends PS2/3 Collection years ago and I never actually looked what was in it. It was a couple hundred games though still sitting in a box and I’m sure there are some good valuable games. I should go sift through it sometime.
Was unaware that Verdict Day was rare, glad I still own my copy. Game is very good.
The Animal Crossing franchise may lean towards casual gaming, but it has laid the foundation for a future title to have a survival mode.
“As a reimagining of a classic 2D platformer, Rocket Knight remains one of my favourite modern examples of the genre so let's see why.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
1)GOTY=Uncharted 2 deserves it,the gaming press will give it to Modern Warfare 2.
2)The mysterious Kojima game=You're in for a 'surprise'.
3)Microsoft may be liquidating Elites=All flops must go,the Elite gives the Xbox brand a bad rep due to its low sales and lack of great features for the asking price.I'm sure the Arcade is selling just fine :)
4)Darksiders and can it beat God Of War 3=No.
5)Heavy Rain can be done on 360=The main guy behind the game said it can not be done on the 360,I trust him>the hiphopgamer.
Criticism:PLEASE work on 2 things:
1)The mixing of the show.I really like what you've got going on but it's really hard to look forward to a poorly mixed Podcast.Really hard.
2)Breathing into the Mic.Maybe it's my obsession with quality recordings,but breathing into the Mic is,in my opinion,worse than kicking your Dog in the nuts.
My GOTY is KZ2 or uncharted 2,
Uncharted 2 and CODMW2 are both strong contenders for GoTY. Uncharted 2 because it's a huge step- up from its predecessor. Gameplay, story, and graphics wise, it's unmatched or will be based on early info.
CODMW2 because it's an IW game, and they tell great stories ( akin to these types of games) and it looks to be a step- up in terms of game play ( no respawning ai, unique coop.) Nothing on multiplayer yet.
Don't see anything from the xbox camp blowing people away... sorry
As of now, my GOTY is Resident Evil 5, that game was awesome.
Torrence is such a fanboy bloody hell why cant he let Hiphip talk...Hiphop talks the truth they just cant accept it..Jon sounds like a woman arguing.
