The Nerd Stash: "Developed by Treyarch Studios, Call of Duty: Black Ops games are some of the best in the series in terms of gameplay, story, and -- of course -- Zombies."
With these hidden gems to add to your backlog, it’s time to give some bangers the shine they deserve.
Numbers 6-9 were some of my absolute favorite early gen PS3 games. I'm still bitter about Incognito and Japan Studio.
The white knight chronicles and infamous games really need to come to modern platforms. MAG I really miss...poor zipper. The ps3 was definitely a unique console despite it being the worst home console of PlayStation.
BLG writes, "Do you ever get that feeling after you’ve finished a game that you just wish there was more? Or do you spend years hoping and praying for a sequel that never comes?
This list compiles some of the top games we desperately want to get a sequel. Please give us more of our favorite games!"
Would love to see a sequel to the 7th gen FPS campaign SINGULARITY from RAVEN Software..
its from 1up...
M$ Forgot their cheque
Jenzo i would take more bubbles from you if i could because only crap comes from your mouth but due to your multiple accounts you still have 5 bubbles.
mesh1 i would take bubbles from you but i can't. You are way worse then Jenzo when it comes to talking sh!t.
You're a joke
Just look at PC market and see yourself.
I have to admit there's more about Microsoft in this part of the podcast than anything else, and it's somewhat negative aside from the fact that Xbox 360 will remain successive through 2008, but crucially not on a level that could match the PlayStation 3.
That is their prediction.
tHE ps3 IS GONNA BECOME MAINSTREAM...just like every other Playstation. I love whe people lie and pretend the 360 will outsell the PS3... it's never gonna happen.
PS3 will win in Hardware for most of 2008...but it wont start killing it until 2009 when the rpice is 250$. THe 360 is gonna get pwned. The PS3 is too strong and will be here too long. Its gonna sale like a Playstation
Obviously the PS3 cant outsell the 360 in software sales until it catches up(even though it just wa i Europe and Japan) it will take a couple or even 3 years in the u.s.
360 = done
even 1up realize it ( i know bad english sorry )
this will heat up fast.
the dark knight is blu !!!!!!!
