Biggest WOW Factor

I have to give this one to LittleBigPlanet.

Best Multiplayer

Online: Call of Duty: World at War
Local: LittleBigPlanet

Most Overrated/Overhyped

LittleBigPlanet. Because of the control and server issues.

Most Underrated/Underhyped

Rainbow Six Vegas 2. I still have a lot of fun playing this game with a friend.

Best Surprise of the Year

MotorStorm: Pacific Rift has four player splitscreen! Yay!

Biggest Disappointment of the Year

Too many to vote for just one. LittleBigPlanet’s problems. Lack of save feature in splitscreen co-op in CoD:WaW. The totally broken splitscreen co-op in Resistance 2.

Best Party Game

Rock Band 2. What a fun party game.

Best Downloadable Game

Burnout: Paradise by a long shot! What an amazing game for the price.

Game of the Year

I don’t think MGS4 is that great – too much time spent watching and not enough time spent playing. LittleBigPlanet was a big disappointment too. So I’m gonna vote for Call of Duty: World at War.

MGS4 is probably the worst game I have ever paid for. I played it and hated every minute. MGS4 is probably the worst game I have ever paid for.

And yes, Metal Gear Solid 4 is one of thos games that I havn't played. So is Fallout 3, Dead Space and so on. But I can't praise a game, that I haven't played. Therefore they are not on my list. So yes, Nawxfreak, You are absolutely right about the first part of your statement. The latter half I don't know about. Since I, you know, haven't played the game. :-) Well, as I wrote, I haven’t played every PS3 game that’s come out this year.

Also Tom Clancy's Las Vegas 2 had some fun co-op and cool maps. Best Surprise of the Year - Getting ambushed in Dead Space again, and again, and again; the character customization in Saints Row 2 was a surprising hoot Biggest Disappointment of the Year - Metal Gear Solid. I think long time fans are blinded to the fact that Konami's time has come and gone. Although the female harpy bosses were fun to fight I was overcome with the uber-long cut scenes, the endless nostalgia for old games, the clunky user item interface and very, very portentous voice acting. Best Party Game - No opinion Best Downloadable Game - Out of all the stuff I downloaded - which ain't much - the only thing I really played over again was the Pure demo Game of the Year - Resistance 2 with close second Dead Space Add'l categories: Best reason not to be playing PS3 - Left 4 Dead PC game and Team Fortress 2 unlockables on the PC Best reason to be playing the PS3 - Resistance 2 (all modes); Dead Space Best Narrative/Fiction – Bad Company (drama don’t work in video games yet, but humor does)
