Name your Top 3 Games and Runner's Up
Top 3 Games of Day 00
- Uncharted 3 - A sinking boat level? Nothing wet my nickers quite as much. That demo level was genuine SP perfection.
- Battlefield 3 - Despite being disappointed about how little MP footage there was and the lack of a live MP demo, as well as the tank demo showing off niche gameplay instead of balls out destruction of a metropolitan environment, it still was the most impressive looking and sounding piece of software shown. Breath-taking.
- Farcry 3 - Did I ever explain to you the concept of Insanity? Let me tell you... fuck yeah! That was some gorgeous FPS gameplay and presentation. Kickass!
Runner's Up
- Tomb Raider - This new breed of adventure games ushered-in by Uncharted; they do show exceptionally well. That demo was intense and packed some immersive punch. When Lara punctured her stomach, that fucking hurt.
- NFS : The Run - Didn't dig the QTs, but hell that Frostbite Engine 2 produces some gorgeous lighting. I was extremely glad to see Frostbite 2 perform on consoles and see it do something unprecedented. That was best in class in lighting easily.
- CoD MW3 - Not gonna kid around, their shock and awe tactic worked. I love explosions and they certainly brought the goods. Blowing up Manhattan was them going balls-out right away - I now of a 'direct' competitor who should have done the same. Either way, strong showing despite it being the same old same old.
- Oh - almost forgot AssCreed. That was pretty dope. It's just I still need to play AssCreed 2 & Bro'hood, but am reluctant to do so since I didn't enjoy AssCred 1. I'll really have to get to it one of these days.
- Apparently it's allowed to name gametrailer exlusives too, not just conference games, so I'll have to namedrop Skyrim and Batman Arkam City too - those were dope!
I don't officially mention Mass Effect 3 here, because I never had a doubt about it. It could be the worst thing ever and I'd still need to play it to its conclusion. It's Mass Effect and it looked even bigger and better than ever. It doesn't need to make my list, it owned it since the second I completed ME2. What about you guys? What impressed you the most?
