AceBlack19: Best of 2010
Easily the strongest game all year. Great new mechanics with a still strong story made for an awesome space opera I'd gladly revisit- and probably will. I look past all my gripes over the disparity in story between the original to now because of how enjoyable it was to play.
I don't think this game will be on many top 10 lists due to its early January release. Honestly though... holy crap. I wouldn't change a damn thing about it. I love it because of its uncompromising design and breakneck pace.
My views of gaming as means to tell a narrative were completely altered by this game. I re-play this game like I might re-read a book.
Most underrated game of the year. Easily. Despite its flaws, the originality at work had me hooked from beginning to end. As for the bugs, well... like Reggie says, "They're a feature!"
Talk about worth the wait. I don't even own it, but playing this game on friends computers made me feel like it deserved a spot on the end of the year awards.
This game reminded me of Legend of Zelda four-swords with its cooperative puzzle solving and the ability to be a complete asshat to your friends. Anything that does that is A-ok in my book. Its also nice to see Laura do something new after all these years of stagnation.
The most fun I've had in a long while. Despite the fact the game was based on a movie released this year, the overall tone made me feel like I was playing a nostalgic classic.
I don't know that the sandbox formula will ever expand past what Just Cause 2 has presented here. Bravo, sirs.
Fuck you Meat Boy. Fuck you.
Fuck all y'all. I was alarmed by how much I enjoyed this. Not even kidding.
