2009 FPS Game of the Year Award
21 days 12 hours ago | by: ABizzel1
2 awards down and many to go. This is probably the most controversial category other than the actual Game of the Year award. There were plenty of BIG name FPS throughout the year if you think about it, but these are the best of the best, and there can only be one winner.
And the nominees for 2009 FPS Game of the Year Award are.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Halo 3: ...

2009 Sports Game of the Year and 2009 Strategy Game of the Year
24 days 12 hours ago | by: ABizzel1
OK I don't want this to look like a trend, but these next genres are genres that I don't really play, so it's up to you guys to pick the winners, 1st runner-up, and 2nd runner-up for both genres.
Rules pick one game per genre in your comment, and the game with the most votes wins the title. Since I'm not a fan, but I am the judge I'm basing my selection off of highest review scores j...

25 days 14 hours ago | by: ABizzel1
Ok so pretty much everything is out (or coming soon) that's competing for GOTY (FF13 Japan only so no mention since I can't play it). Fall 2009 my not have been full of blockbusters, however, there have been many of them over the year. These games are sure to be up for GOTY for 2009, now vote for the winner.

Uncharted 3 needs improvement
36 days 1 hour ago | by: ABizzel1
I love Uncharted 2 and here are some ideas to make Uncharted 3 (I hope it comes out on next gen hardware) even better than 2.
1. Open world or at least open world stages/ chapters. The jungle stages are going to be in every Uncharted and I wish there was more jungle in Among Thieves, so make them like a real jungle which isn't limited. I completely understand how having a linea...

Who's launching first next gen?
101 days 17 hours ago | by: ABizzel1
MS is poised to launch their next gen system first once again.
1. They came out first this gen.
2. They have been able to drop the price of their system several times while maintaining a profit.
3. They want to keep that advantage.
But MS continues to say that the 360 isn't half way through it's life cycle yet, and if that's true then we probably won't see a new Xbox until 2...

What can Sony do to get out of last place?
112 days 5 hours ago | by: ABizzel1
No matter how you try to spin it the PlayStation 3 is in last place. And to those who say sales don't matter that's only half true. Sales shouldn't matter to consumers, but they do to the companies. And If I were running Sony these are the 5 things I would do to catch up to the competition.
1. A price drop. This is what's keeping the PS3 from selling as much as

When Good Games Go Wrong Part 1
123 days 21 hours ago | by: ABizzel1
Welcome to When Good Games Go Wrong (episode/issue/or whatever you want to call it 1). In this post I will be critiquing a game, and give my ideas of what could or would have made the game a better experience. And to kick the first WGGGW off we will start with none other than the PS3 exclusive Lair.
When we first heard about Lair it seemed like nothing, but good would come of t...

Recipe for 3rd party & the Wii
125 days 1 hour ago | by: ABizzel1
Ok so many of us know that 3rd party hardcore games don't sell well on the Wii. So my suggestion is to port those games over to PSN and XBLA at a discounted price of $20 - $40. All developers need to do is add an analog control patch to the game (as Lair did) and optimize it for 360 and PS3.
Think about it this would give games like MadWorld, The Conduit, No More Heroes,...

Why does everyone want to be Kratos?
132 days 1 hour ago | by: ABizzel1
Why is it that developers model their action games after God of War. We all know God of War is an amazing action game that is probably the best in the genre (which I get is the reason the clone it), but there are other games worthy of being cloned as well (has any of you heard of Ninja Gaiden).
Developers need to take a step back and do for the genre what God of War did when it was f...

Where Oh where have these games gone?
132 days 1 hour ago | by: ABizzel1
Oh Where oh screw it. As we all know many games have slipped from a 2009 to a 2010 release Heavy Rain, Bioshock 2, Red Dead Redemption, and more making 2009's release season less stellar than it had been before the set backs. But that's not to say there aren't any games coming out. I mean we still have Assassin's Creed 2, Modern Warfare 2, Tekken 6, Batman, KOF 12, Brutal Lege...

Systems for the low low
144 days 19 hours ago | by: ABizzel1
Well CompUSA.com is having this huge 48 hour sell.
A 60GB Xbox360 for only $199. Yes that's right $199.
And a 80GB PS3 for $319. Yes that's right $319.
The only catch is the 360's are open box, and the PS3 is refurbished. So if you don't mind go out and pick one of them up.
