2006 Game list Options

[AC9breaker]

So 2007 is finally here and I just realized, we never made our top 2006 games list.
Here's my list.


5. Zelda Twilight Princess
I actually haven't played it but I know its going to be awesome. Would have probably been one had I played it.


4. PSU
What can I say, I loves my PSU.


3. Final Fantasy III
Obviously I never played the original FF3, but for some reason this game brings back alot of feelings of Nostalgia. Touch screen makes it all the more enjoyable for me.


2. Okami
Such an Awesome game, too bad it didn't get the recognition it deserved. really magical, enchanting and charming. I play this game and I'm literally transported to another world. This game is really a Zelda game, made for PS2.



1. Gears of War
I've said this before and I'll say it again. Any game that keeps me activly playing for 6 hours is a winner. Everytime I made a headshot I just had to stick my tongue out to see if the blood would land on it and I could taste alien brain.


*Honorable mentions
Metriod Prime Hunters
Elite Beat Agents
Dawn of War: Dark Crusade

F.E.A.R Multiplayer: Score - 4 out of 5

Yeah fear is a 2005 game, but the online portion of the game went free in 2006, We've had several really fun ATHQ shootouts. The physics in this game are incredibly lifelike, everything is really top notch as anyone who's played it can tell you, except the damn SCISSOR KICK! ugh.. lol, The best online FPS on the market right now, IMHO.

Phantasy Star Universe: Score - 3 out of 5

Ah the nostalgia this game brought back, I immensely enjoyed the big gatherings and such, just like the old days, everyone standing around just bullshitting, good times. Honestly though the game itself... I found myself somewhat dissapointed with, the P.M. annoys me, and certain aspects of the game feel clunky and ackward. Combat is conciderably improved from previous PSO's, however the lack of a functional guild system, and limited content forced me to get bored here pretty quick, I really wanted to totally get back into it, but i found myself falling asleep at the end of long missions, i think, like SCU; i just played the old versions into the ground way too much. but man, the meetings and stuff i thuroughly enjoy, and i'll be at the next one if possible.

Dawn of War: Dark Crusade: Score - 5 out of 5

The third installment in the Dawn of War series really shines. Best RTS action around if you ask me, the maps (including all maps from the previous DoW games) are quite varied and fun, each race requires completely different strategies and tactics and the action is intense.

Guitar Hero II: Score - 5 out of 5

This is the most addictive game i've played in a long, long time, Vitamin D was right on the money when he said It's so much fun it hurts. the game is quick to pick up, and incredibly difficult to master, i've spent hours on end rocking out until i thought the controller was going to break. This is a must play game for everyone IMHO, even people not fond of the music seem to find it very entertaining.

Oh and D... the game is so much smoother and refined because they totally fixed the Hammer-Ons and Pull-Offs, which were nigh impossible to use in the original game. The difficulty of the sequel raises the bar several notches over the original, yet i find myself pulling off certain notes and chords that would have given me fits on the original.

5th game.. hmm, undecided.
