I don't really know why people keep wanting to draw comparisons between this and SMB. The platforming is very different, and so are the goals. If you're going into this expecting SMB, you're going to be sorely disappointed.
FPS is kind of choppy right now for me, but I love the pacing in this game, that combined with the more skill-based gameplay in this game makes this head and shoulders above Super Meat Boy for me. You need to use a pad for this game, if you don't have easy access to mashing the dash button, you're probably not playing the game correctly.
1. DIno D-Day Dino D-Day is a simple experience of the best competitive multiplayer that one can EVER come to experience. Not only is every moment tense and unforgiving, but you are constantly hunted down as a dino in a dino eat dino (or dino eat Allied Powers in this case) extravaganza that you have to truly experience before you can make any judgement on the gameplay. People say that there some "balance problems" with the game, whatever nerd speak that is supposed to mean is irrelevant, seeing as you are a fucking NAZI DINOSAUR WHICH FUCK THE ALLIED PUSSIES UP and yeah since the "patch" the Allied were given some pussy dino that no one cares about and is a ripoff of a badass Nazi dino but hey now the Nazis get fucking T REXES THAT SERVES DON'T HAVE TO SET LIMITS TO. I mean yeah the Allied are meant to get torn up, I'm sorry if you bitches on the other side can't understand that you are supposed to lose. If you find yourself on the Allied side, just shut the fuck up, or do what I do and blackmail admins.
The graphics are amazing if you only pay attention to certain animations of certain dinos, but since when do graphics make a game. I'd like to see YOU make a mod of Half Life 2 and then charge it for $20(!) and get away clean. The sound design gives an eerie silence when between the start and end of rounds, and a familiar, triumphant score sets in place when said round ends. The voice acting is superb for the dino cast, I didn't really listen to the people but I think some of them say funny things a lot because they keep repeating them. I dunno I wasn't paying attention.
The gameplay is up in the air. On one hand the guns feel like shit, the medpacks feel like shit, the melee feels like shit, the badass amazing dinos feel like shit, the balance is shit or so I'm told by nerds, grenades are shit, the killcam is shit somehow, the T-Rex controls like shit, gamemodes are shit, newspapers are awesome oddly, and everything is kinda shit. But that's why you don't get hung up on gameplay! You just truck on! You're having fun, whether or not you're enjoying yourself is totally unimportant because the more you think about what you're doing, the less fun you'll have doing anything in life. For example: This review was one of the most fun thing I've done in YEARS, and I'm not even sure how to use half of these words properly.
Point is that this game is GOTY and Tankasaurs are baddass.
2. Bastion Kind of an ok game I guess? My list really kinda jumps down far after Dino D-Day, but I'll try to be fair. I mean in an ideal world I would have every option as Dino D-Day but whatever we're not going to get worked up over it again, b/c I know Frood is a faggot and wouldn't let me do it cause that's how assholes from the midwest are.
ANYWAY MOVING ON ok yeah this game is pretty cool I mean stuff is floating and you hit shit with hammers kind of like Mario and that's kind of cool. Had to mute the game cause the developer commentary got fucking left on (LRN 2 CODE) but hey you know we can't all be amazing russian coder muffins so I'm not going to hold it against them entirely. What was I talking about? OK yeah this game is fun.
3. Ghost Trick Ok this game was really confusing and I'm not sure what happened during half of the time (used gfaqs cause the puzzles were dumb) god damn if that red headed chick wasn't fuckin hot.
Would have placed this higher if it didn't have all those confusing things (the fuck is a hd cancel?) but hey YURI AND KING GET NAKED KIND OF. THEM SHIRTS BE COMING OFF YOOOO
5. Portal 2 I AM NOT WRITING THESE CHRONOLOGICALLY AND I AM RUNNING OUT OF ENERGY JUICE
THIS GAME IS FUKCING PORTAL FREE DLC BUY IT FUCK I'M LAZY
Yo this is aint the best shmup I ever played (this is my first one) but hey it aint bad I think if these guys keep at it and keep trying to do what they care about and don't release DLC like they think they should be able to then they'll go far. Also get some netplay in this bitch, make it compatible with HAMACHI.
I am addicted to this game my doctor has to actually come over every other day to my appartment to make sure that I get out of the house and stop playing this game because holy mother of god I'm addicted to this game. Would have been higher up but I actually have problems in my social like that I did not used to have before so this game gets kinda knocked down for that but besides that it's my other GOTY other than Mai.
again this would have been higher up but naked ass scars do not make for an immersive experience for half the game jesus christ guys
9. Puzzle Agent 2 I don't really play this game but it kind of makes me look smart when I play so yeah
Some shit happened with gnomes I dunno the gfaqs thing made sense when I read it, but he game is fucking dumb besides that. got 9 b/c that chick in the puzzle house who wants to bone that sasquatch is hot.
10. Dino D-Day FUCK YOU FROOD I DO WHAT I WANT DINO D DAY IS THE GAME OF ALL YEARS FUCK ALL YALL
Can we get a mod in here? I feel like this poster (@ThatFrood) is threatening me in ways that I know he could never actually pull off (because he's kind of a pussy), but I still feel like this kind of discourse shouldn't be tolerated.
I also feel that I should usurp his position as leader of this thread, but only to a degree. I'm fairly benevolent, so he may have the privilege of doing most, if not all of the work involved in this project.
