    Yes. I don't really know you though but this sold it for me. You put your own opinion across and someone else has a different view and you start to bitch...

So, after getting slaughtered because of my negative opinions in my last blog, I'm going to go for something slightly more light hearted :).

  • Left 4 Dead
    Left 4 Dead
    itself is an amazing game, but I only love playing it so much because of my friends. Whether you decide to play everyman for himself on versus or working seriously as a team, you can have a hell of a good time. The campaign keeps itself fresh with a different experience every time and the multiplayer brings a great sense of competitiveness to the whole online portion of the game. Playing as the infected is the funnest part of the versus mode, well aslong as your not playing as a smoker but can still sometimes feel frustrating. The three problems that come to mind are the large amount of people that try to cheat ,the use of the melee button against Hunters and the lack of multiplayer maps to play on. However with DLC on the horizon and patches being released that shouldn't be a problem.                                                                        

      
        The good in L4D heavily outweights the bad, so if you have the money and some friends. L4D is a must have.

  • Fable 2
    I was a huge fan of the first Fable and the second has exceeded my expectations immensely. The plot though a little strange in places, was a large factor for me loving this game. The different characters and choices, give Fable 2 great replay value and makes your experience and character unique to everyone else's. Fable's humour and immersive world can have you playing for hours on end; your silent, customizable protagonist/ antagonist is one of the games best features and really brings your into Albion.

    I'm afraid this blog is gonna have to stay unfinished until tommorow/ Tuesday, so I'll add a few more games and details then.

    But for now, what are your favourite 360 games? and has anyone beat my friend Sean's 7,400 damage total as infected on L4D?

   My Most Hated Xbox Games of 2008


Xbox 360 Game

Reason I Didn’t Enjoy This Game

Two Worlds

When you find yourself playing a game just to see if it can get any worse or because it’s hilariously bad, it deserves a spot like this.

Far Cry 2

Far Cry 2 isn’t exactly a bad game; I just really don’t like it. I’m a ‘run and gun’ kind of guy and that usually works a lot better when you can hit something without aiming for half an hour. This is a shame because the game generally does have a lot of shooting to do. However this is only because everyone in the area thinks you pushed their grandma down the stairs and are really pissed off for some unknown reason.

Timeshift

It may be a little unfair for me to rant about Timeshift because I’ve played so little of it. I enjoyed the action parts of the game and using time powers but when it came to silly stuff llike slowing down time to stop fan blades to advance (I stopped time instead of reversing it???) or similar style things, I felt cheated because I had to start the level again. And if thats not enough, It helps fill up this table... :P.

The Bourne Conspiracy

I’m not new to the Bourne series; I’ve seen all the films and know the basic story and stuff. But in the 5 second poorly explained cut scenes in the game I got seriously confused, some key scenes from the film are there but it just doesn’t make sense. A lot of people say the fighting is fantastic and at first I agreed, but sadly it became repetitive in a three hour game.

Burnout

I just did not like this game one bit, it took ages (for me) to get my first license and I just wanted to race nice and fast cars online finding out there were like 6 more to go just made me think "CBA!!!!!!!!!".

DOA 4

Ninjas and massive tits may sound awesome but DOA feels like your playing against someone that uses the same cheap move again and again. I finally completed it and then tried to take my ‘L337’ skills online; yeah I got schooled by some eight year old or something.

N+

This is a simple reason really… WAY TOO HARD!!! (AKA I’m shit at it.) Well that and I have a stupidly short temper.


In other news...

  •  Phildelphia made the playoffs, woooo!!! I'm really thinkin Superbowl this year, especially if we beat the Giants later today :).
  • I've just picked up CoD: World at War, I think its fantastic. Completed the campaign yesterday and really enjoyed it, especially the Soviet Union bits which surprised me but thats mainly down to the fountain scene they stole from Enemy at the Gates.
  • Also bought Fallout, Fable 2 and MK vs Dc which are great ,really enjoying MK online.


Expect another blog soon with an updated list of my favourite 360 titles aswell as a general update. Also sorry for the lack of pictures, they weren't playing nice with the table!

Would be really great to hear what you guys think, even though it'll be pro Burnout :P.

Heres a list of some games that I'm hoping to get for my birthday or Christmas this year, realistically I'll only be able to afford a few so your thoughts are more than welcome.
  • Smackdown vs Raw 2009
I've always been a fan of wrestling and wrestling games. I used to get these annually up until SVR 2007 which was pretty terrible, but I quite recently rented SVR 08 and really enjoyed it which has re-established my faith in the series. SVR09's emphasis on tag teams has also grabbed my attention, me and my mate Jack used to play the games together all the time and we're both picking it up this Christmas.
My Gawd King!
My Gawd King!

  • Mirror's Edge
I'll be honest, I have only started to want this game pretty recently. I didn't think this game would work at all in 1st person but was pleasantly surprised by the demo, playing the demo the first thing I noticed was the sense of immersion I got from playing as Faith. Running around and jumping form rooftop to rooftop felt amazing and the style of the game kinda reminded me of Mark Ecko's Getting Up.

  • Fable 2
I want this game purely off my love for the original, my mate Dan's dad lent him an Xbox for a little while and as we went to each others houses almost everyday I quickly found myself playing this game. I couldn't get enough of it, and now knowing that Fable 2 is pretty much more of the same but improved I don't think I can resist. 

  • Far Cry 2
I have Sean to thank for this one. Ever since I saw some screenshots and discussed the themes, gameplay and plot with Sean I've been pretty interested in this one. I like the concept of having to take more care with your AI partners because when they are gone, they are gone forever.
Something Oblivion has recently shown me (Imperial City = Ghost town).
Dayum!
Dayum!

  • Midnight Club LA
The last Midnight Club game I played was 3 for my PS2 and I was crazy about it, unfortunately my sexy sexy love affair with this game came to an end when it got really scratched at a mates house. So I'm hoping I'll be able to pick up the sequel this December.

  • Left 4 Dead
There's no question about me picking up L4D this Christmas and I don't think I need to go into much detail about it, seeing as the people I'll be playing it with have wrote more than enough about it. What I will say is I really can't wait to play it with ma boys! Its just a laugh and a great time, now just to decide whether to get it for Christmas or for my birthday.

Yeahhhhh Babyyyy!
Yeahhhhh Babyyyy!


Just watching the TV whilst writing this and I've seen Fable 2 for only £19.99 at Gamestation, its starting to look like a pretty sweet deal right now.

I haven't done a proper blog in a long while so I think I'll do them now monthly or whenever I feel the need to type up how awesome I am at games =p.

So what do ya' think I should get?
And what are you after this Christmas???

From this trailer I'm really excited, I've played every Pokemon game ever made and they just keep getting better. It looks like this one is going to be based around Giratina.
