PS3, X360, PC- Game of Thrones
- Review
- There is probably a great role-playing game to be made out of George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire novels, but Game of Thrones isn't it.
MAC, PC- Diablo III
- Review
- The first Diablo game in over a decade is also one of the most insidiously satisfying loot treadmills in almost as long.
PS3N, PS3, X360, PC- Prototype 2
- Review
- Prototype 2 gives you some interesting abilities that can be fun to use, but it doesn't give you enough good opportunities to cut loose with all that power.
PS3, X360, PC- Max Payne 3
- Review
- Rockstar Games modernizes and makes Max Payne its own, creating something grittier and more grounded in reality, if not quite as singular.

1. Burnout 2: Point of Impact
Crash Mode was completely new to us. Six or seven guys ignoring the party and bikini-clad girls consuming alcohol at prodigious rates to laugh hysterically and pass the controller along just to drive high-powered fictional vehicles off of ramps and into semi-trailers. |
|
2. Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem
The Lovecraftian God reveal battle, the first time your GameCube made you think that it had shut off, the way evil were-dogs heads exploded...there are too many to list. |
|
3. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
I know it was maligned, but when the Princess shoots Gannondorf in the back and Link buries the Master Sword in his face...definitely a holy sh*t moment. |
|
4. Metroid
This was THE Holy Sh*t moment. Samus Aran turns out to be an 8-bit hottie in a bikini. Who knew? |
|
5. BioShock
Okay, so the big reveal was less of a "holy sh*t!" and more of a, "yeeeeah...I knew there was something hinky there," but the first time you piss off a Big Daddy who proceeds to knock you across the room? I definitely said, "Holy sh*t!" I may have secularly sh*t myself, too. |
|
6. Halo: Combat Evolved
The first time I ran into the Flood...(zombie alien infections versus space marines in robot powered armor?) Yeah. A solid "Holy Sh*t!" moment. |
|
7. God of War
This entire franchise had its share of "Holy Sh*t!" moments, but my favorites came from the first of the trilogy because I hadn't seen anything like them before. The minotaur...minoan bull? Whatever. The battle where you had to fire burning logs into this big effing monster and then do a mini-game on his face to kill him? That one. That's what sticks in my mind as a "Holy Sh*t!" moment. |

8. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
Four Words: Nuke. Helicopter crash. Death. Holy sh*t! |
