The Worst Video games of 2009!

Back again my friends to give these so called "Games" a big kick in they're retarded asses! Every year I spend a lot of money on video games, some really big titles you know that are going to be good, others less known, and most of the time they suck fat dick...plain and simple. Here are the list of the chosen few that really pissed me off, off to the point where these mother fuckers just made me want to turn my systems off, and I did.

5. Bionic Commando

Let me start by saying this game had One of the best multi player modes I have ever played! I wasted a lot of hours on Death match, It was fucking fun, BUT! Multi player is not everything, to me a game has to have a strong single player campaign to really wow me over, and this did not. Being a big fan of the original BC and its remake BC:Rearmed for Xbox live, This game did not live up to its hype, the story was voiced acted so bad I thought I was watching a CGI porn, and Capcom made Nathan "Rad" Spencer look like a fucking wanna be Rasta and should be in Terminator:Salvation(I'll get to you soon). The swinging control felt really off too, I wanted to swing like spider-man and I end up swinging like My dead grandpa(sorry, I love you)! So all together you can't sell me on multi player alone, no matter how good it is.



4. Tekken 6

What the fuck? What the FUCK! I love Tekken, love it. Since the PsOne days I couldn't get enough of this fighter, great hand to hand and the controls were always precise, Every Tekken I have played has been gold, even the Psp version. But when I popped in Tekken 6 for my PS3 on October 21st 2009 I was in a fucking nightmare! LOADING NIGHTMARE! I waited, here it comes, 7 minutes, 7 minutes NO joke! Loading please wait, that's what the bottom right screen kept telling me. LOADING PLEASE WAIT! If I wanted to wait I would have went to Disneyland in the middle of fucking August! The game play and the graphics are solid, but the load times kill it for me, and the story mode, who are they fucking kidding, Tekken you better deal with loading time, bring out a patch via online or something Bandai, I expect better from this franchise.



3. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

This game sucked. It sucked worst than me having to throw up in a pan while I take a nasty watery shit when I have a temperature of 101. That's how much it sucks, OK, This game should be burnt and pissed on by Bumblebee. The controls suck, the graphics to me are sub par this generation of consoles, and the glitches, my god, I love watching enemies feet just levitate above they're fucking heads! The game is so bad I wanted shit myself out of anger! DO NOT PLAY!





2. Terminator: Salvation

Fuck you Grin. Fuck you and fuck McG. This was just a cash in on the movie hype train, you two faggots should be ashamed of yourselves. I had a little faith in the game, but Grin made BC:Rearmed which to me was a great Xbox live title last year, and also made Wanted the game, and that game was OK, but this pile of cat shit really takes the cake. For starters, what game has 9 achievements all worth 80 gamer points, and second why the fuck do all my teammates never shoot, was it a glitch? Is there no AI? It was fucking stupid, I'd rather watch the movie on repeat all day then play this disc again.



1. The Conduit

This game was suppose to be for the Wii what Killzone 2 is was for PS3 and what Halo was for XBOX 360, wow was High Voltage Studios wrong. This sucker sucked. I played this game for no more that 30 minutes when I saw so many rip offs of others games, I gagged. The Enemies look like something straight out of Halo, and the setting straight out of Modern Warfare 1. The invert controls, which you could not change were terrible, while the story played like the latest Michael Bay movie. This game was Hyped too, I'm talking a lot, IGN and XPLAY were both speaking highly about it, which made me want to buy it! And I did! And now I HATE IT! Thanks High Voltage Studios, hope you spent my $54.00 dollars well, cause I didn't!

There you have it, my top 5 worst of 2009. This year to me was a great year for games. I spent a lot of time getting frustrated, but I out shine those moments with a lot of great titles that I loved to keep playing till the very end. I hope next year will be even better with games like Bioshock 2, Red Dead Redemption, Epic Mickey and Singularity all dropping before the end of 2010, till that list comes. GAME ON!

Top 5 Best Video games of 2009!


Its been awhile since I updated my blog, over a year in fact, and a what a year it has been. I've done alot, worked alot, and seen alot of movies and played a lot of games...ALOT of games. Its not that I don't have a life(who am I kidding, I don't..sigh..) but games are what relaxes me and keeps my mind from eating it self away in this fucked up world I live in...I'm getting off track, anywho, these are my top 5 Best games of 2009! Now these are my top 5, if you don't agree cause you listen to Adam and Morgan or IGN, kiss it! These are the games that I really liked, and also beat.

The Best:


5. Ghostbusters (xbox 360)


Let me tell you a Little tale when I was a young beaner I used to love The Ghosbusters ask my Mom and Dad they will tell you they wasted a lot of money on this franchise. Between the movies and the cartoons I couldn't get away. Years past and all of a sudden BAM! Ghostbusters the video game. This what I wanted in a Ghostbusters video game. All the actors are back, Bill, Dan, Harold, and Winston..I mean Ernie(sorry). The writing is great, the game play to me is solid, even though a lot of people thought it was repetitive, I enjoyed catching ghosts, I just loved passing the levels in general cause it allowed a cut scene to play which I looked forward to every break. I don't think a third movie will live up to its hype, so thanks Terminal Reality Games for bringing the Team back into my life....it was far too long of a wait.














4. Grand Theft Auto 4: Tales from Liberty City- The Lost and Damned/Ballad of Gay Tony (xbox360)

Okay let me just tell you The Houser brothers from Rockstar Games know how to write a story, plain and simple. I love watching everything unfold in these games, it pulls you in like a film, you look forward to the outcome. Luis and Johnny are great characters, you feel for them the whole way, great companions to the already fucking awesome Nico form GTA4. The games added over top action missing from GTA4, adding that element of Vice city or San Andres form the PS2 days. the games has a great price tag($40.00, and you don't need a copy of GTA4 to play) and is long enough to get a great experience. once again Rockstar, You killed it.





3. Resident Evil 5 (xbox360)

This one to me got swept under the rug this year, the game is fucking action packed, it has it scares(a lot of people said it didn't have any, WTF?) and you can play co-op the whole way threw the main story. Having the dlc of versus was fantastic as well. I spent a lot of hours playing this game and let me tell you I loved every minute if it. Between the fast pace game play and the puzzle solving(not as good as past Re titles but fun) and creature and character models and the graphics were a overhaul in my eyes this game is a great addition to the Resident Evil franchise. Lets just hope Capcom doesn't fuck it up with 6.



2. Batman-Arkham Asylum (xbox360)
The Bioshock of '09, This game had a great attention detail and the story, my god, was so epic in scope and game play. I had my doubts when I got this, I thought it was gonna be hype, man was I wrong. My grubby hands popped this baby in my console and I was hooked instantly, from the opening walk with Joker to the fight with Bane, this game was fantastic. Free flow combat added something to game I have never experienced, the way Batman moved and the combo attacks were fucking awesome. Mark Hamil and Kevin Conroy as Joker and Batman add a sense of nostalgia for me due to growing up on the animated series, and having Paul Dini write it, Fan-fucking-tastic! Rocksteady studios shows a great amount of talent as a developer straight out the gate, I hope they don't rush AA2, put time and effort in it guys, I'll wait, even if its a long one.



1. Left 4 Dead 2 (xbox360)

So many scenarios, so many weapons, so many ways to die. I love the first left for dead, and the second is what a sequel should be, MORE MORE MORE! That's what Valve delivers in this game. From Scavenge mode to Realism mode to just plain Co-op, I can't put this game down. The game does throw off some people, some say its to repetitive or too frantic, I feel at home with this One. The AI Director I love cause the game play changes every time, but nothings like getting some friends together online and fucking up some zombies. Valve keep on doing what you do, and I'll be there to pick up the product.

So there you have it, the best. A lot of people are probably asking wheres MW2 or Uncharted 2 or even Borderlands! Well my friend, that's why I have a close call list....

Runner-ups:

Modern Warfare 2- Great Graphics and online play is Fantastic

Uncharted 2- A movie...Enough said.

UFC-Undisputed 2009- I don't watch the sport, but this game is fucking Awesome.

Call of Juarez 2-Bound in Blood- Gotta love a good western.

Street fighter 4- Capcom did it again

So I'll be back in a few to give my Worst Games of 2009, that's when the shit hits the fan.

GAME ON!
