Real poll for you losers. There's a little something for everybody. No holds barred.

Which game will get the MrAngryFace Seal of Approval™?

Bebpo · « **Reply #1 on:** December 20, 2009, 10:30:36 PM »

There were so many games this year in the last half that were 9/10 or better, so stuff like AC2 and U2 are probably more deserving on a technical level, but goddamn if Demon Souls wasn't the most original and creative in a VERY GOOD WAY and addicting game this year. I hope a sequel gets announced in 2010.

Why is Bayonetta on the list? It hasn't been released here. Bore's Japan members must conform to our ways!

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #6 on:** December 20, 2009, 10:35:40 PM »

Sweet. A vote for Halo 3: ODST. Got it.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #7 on:** December 20, 2009, 10:42:21 PM »

It's a tough call for me, but I went with Batman: Arkham Asylum. It was the only game I remember in a long time that I could not put the controller down for. It gets a spot in a select few single-player titles I will keep in my library.

Borderlands, Modern Warfare 2, Street Fighter IV and Dragon-Age: Origins were all close runner ups.

Shadow Complex and Flower each have one vote?

duckman2000 · « **Reply #10 on:** December 20, 2009, 11:00:46 PM »

Other: Infamous

Out of those, Uncharted 2, Assassin's Creed 2 runner-up.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #11 on:** December 20, 2009, 11:14:53 PM »

I played three GOTY contenders for my taste this year. Dragon Age, Modern Warfare 2, and Batman which was beneath the other two but still damn enjoyable. If I had to pick one it would be Dragon Age.

I also played a lot of other good games I quite enjoyed which are on a tier below those three. Some of those which spring to mind would be:

Forza 3
The Lost and The Damned
Drop7
Shadow Complex
Trine
Splosion Man
Battlefield 1943
Spider: The Secret of Bryce Manor
Torchlight
RE5

I'm also playing through AC 2 at the moment which seems like it would be able to crack the list above and recently I've started to play League of Legends a bit which I'm digging although it's too early to say whether it would make my list especially since I kinda suck at RTS games but I'm enjoying this one so far. I don't own a PS3 so obviously my list reflects that although I played a bit of Uncharted 2 and watched someone else play quite a bit of it, and it seems like a great game.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #12 on:** December 20, 2009, 11:15:17 PM »

RE5 for me, Borderlands was a close second. Battlefield 1943 was arcade goty

iconoclast · « **Reply #13 on:** December 20, 2009, 11:30:09 PM »

Voted for Street Fighter 4. Demon's Souls is a close runner-up, but I gotta give the nod to SF. SMT: Devil Survivor is a lock for my top 10 as well, and maybe Batman, which I just finished up. Still haven't played most of the latest releases though.

You should have nominated the latest WoW expansion, Willco; for PD's sake.

If we start treating WoW like a game then we'd eventually treat Flower as one

Borderlands for me. It's far from perfect, but the shootin'n'lootin scratches my vaguely OCD'ish itch to kill things yet collect things at the same time.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #33 on:** December 21, 2009, 01:46:44 AM »

Yeah, sorry, enough of our users are playing it for it to be included. General rule of thumb is that if distantmantra owns it, it's on the list. (He exudes quality.)

I know bayonetta's on there by mistake, but I'm seriously considering it. I've been through the demo a million times. Haven't been this into a demo since the Ninja Gaiden 1 demo...

Otherwise, it's a tough call. Not counting the Bayonetta demo, I think Uncharted 2 wins. My only qualm is with the Yetis...otherwise, I'm getting RE4 vibes from it--it manages to keep topping itself in every scenario. It restores my faith in barebones "run and shoot dudes" games.

Batman: Arkham Asylum

Honorable Mention: Uncharted 2, Dragon Age: Origins, Assassin's Creed 2

By far the best single player experience this year. Fuck Modern Warfare 2.

For me it was really close between SF4 and Bayonetta, but SF4 wins since I spent more time on it than any other game this year.

---

Reposting from the other thread:

Best:

1. Street Fighter IV (360/PS3)
2. Bayonetta (360)
3. Uncharted 2 (PS3)
4. Resident Evil 5 (360)
5. New Super Mario Bros. Wii (Wii)

Worst:

1. Suggoi! Arcana Heart 2 (PS2) WHAT A PIECE OF FUCKING SHIT. Worst port ever.
2. Samurai Shodown Edge Of Destiny (360) This isn't even out yet, but I've played the arcade version. It's a huge, steaming, smelly, festering TURD.
3. KOF XII (360/PS3) An incomplete beta with broken online. SNK should be ashamed of themselves for this and Edge Of Destiny.
4. Scribblenauts (DS) I wonder what typing in "ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzz" will do?
5. Way Of The Samurai 3 (PS3) Not a bad game, but it just got boring fast.

By platform:

Multi: Street Fighter IV
360: Bayonetta
PS3: Uncharted 2
PSP: Tenchu 4
PS2: KOF 2002 Unlimited Match
DS: Undecided...barely played it this year.
Wii: NSMB Wii
Wii Ware: Castlevania ReBirth
PSN: Wipeout HD Fury
XBLA: Shadow Complex (I need to finish this!)

Best non-2009 games I played:

1. Mirror's Edge (PS3)
2. Tomb Raider Underworld (360)
3. Uncharted (PS3)
4. Dead Space (PS3) (Just got this so it may move up the ladder)

I still haven't played potential GOTY contenders like Borderlands and Demon's Souls yet.

Out of those, I'd have to say Assassin's Creed 2. It's close between that and Arkham Asylum but AC2 just felt a little more polished.
