"The most addictive video games in pictures"
That's the title for fuck sake. Why introduce a completely made-up word instead of using the REAL WORD: Addictive.

ADDICTIVE you fucking imbecile. It's in the title right above your blurb!

Bubble up for my favourite rant of the day!

But it does not surprise me at all. Online articles are filled with bad grammar and spelling mistakes.

Man, I hope my grammar holds up in this post...

Super-Brad4886d ago

What was the title that was submitted then? lol

darthv724886d ago

It happens I guess. We get wrapped up in what we want to say that we just dont see the error of our ways.

Anyway..OT. Addictive games to me are the puzzle ones. I was a tetris-aholic and later got strung out on Zuma. Peggle is my new drug of choice.

Sometimes the simplest of things can be so hard to put down. I try to keep my sanity by playing a round of Reach or a few chapters of God of War in between.

huzzaahh4886d ago

It really grinds my gears when people use "addicting" too.

Bubs fo' you.

vickers5004885d ago

Hmm, didn't know that "addicting" wasn't a word, but then again, I've never used it out loud or on a keyboard before.

The more you know, eh?

s8anicslayer4885d ago

EDHE, before you speak as if you write the english dictionary below you'll find a link to the word ADDICTING..so who's the Moron oops I mean Imbecile?

edhe4885d ago

I'll start on grammar next.

You are forewarned.

Kurt Russell4886d ago

hahah! Excellent kicking off!

Shame about the shit article.

Ducky4886d ago (Edited 4886d ago )

PC games too. Hell yes.

RedDead4886d ago

That's Cods' only real great point(I dunno if that's a good thing or bad), it's average other than it's addictiveness, sometimes i'm sitting there getting pwned thinking "why the Fu** am I playing this?" But I keep playing anyway.

Shackdaddy8364886d ago

I actually got bored within 2 days. Not addictive at all....

WoW is probably the most addictive game on that list. If you want to have a life then don't play WoW.

Dave13514886d ago

multiplayer is pretty addictive imo. only until you get enough "connection interrupteds" to make you go insane.

Shackdaddy8364886d ago (Edited 4886d ago )

Well, the best guns imo are in the middle of the unlock tree so once you unlock those then its just a bore fest. It is addictive for about the first half before you prestige but then it just becomes super generic because there is no reason to change your weapon.

Ducky4886d ago (Edited 4886d ago )

I tend to dislike the 'best' guns.

The mp44 was my favourite gun in CoD4 because it was one stubborn motherhubbard to shoot with. The only reason I go back to MW is to use the mp44.

Same goes in BlackOps, I prefer playing with the trickier guns. The SMGs are quite fun and so far enjoying the Stakeout. =)

Playing different game-modes also goes a long way in making the game more enjoyable. I know some people that haven't set foot outside TDM/FFA.

huzzaahh4886d ago

In proper, non-American English, we use "s" instead of "z". The world doesn't revolve around you, American.

It is a mistake because the game's actual name is "Civilization" but it's an understandable mistake.

Qdog4886d ago

While I am not one to instigate or disrespect anyone based on opinion, whats going on with the forceful anti-American statement? In fact I'd like to know why you think the poster resides in America to begin with? Am I right in assuming that you have indeed lumped all Americans into one classifiable category, predictable and worthy of insult? That would imply that you lack room to talk.

chak_4886d ago

not that I disagree, but checking his profile you can see he lives in oklahoma

erm

Qdog4886d ago

One rarely takes the time to research when unceremoniously judging at face value.

huzzaahh4885d ago

I can't stand the ignorance of some people. Americans generally (and I know enough Americans to have some say) think that they have the best way of doing things and that their way is the only right way of doing those things.

The fact that Simco876 hasn't realized that things are different in the rest of the world (specifically common spelling differences) annoys me.

I'm not anti-American, I'm anti-ignorance, and the majority of ignorant people I've met have been American.

TMNT Arcade: Wrath of the Mutants review - Games Asylum

Games Asylum: "Well, this is neat. As the name suggests, Wrath of the Mutants is the rarest of things – a genuine arcade conversion. With most modern arcade games being ticket redemption machines, this is something seldom seen. In fact, the last arcade conversion we can recall was Raw Thrill’s own Cruis’n’ Blast on Switch back in 2021. This is also based on an older iteration of TMNT, harking back to the series from 2012-2017. It’s essentially breaking franchise continuity (we’ve had two different iterations of the Turtles since) and could even be considered nostalgic for a select few – those who grew up with 2012’s Turtles are probably in their late teens."

It must be frustrating for these devs to see Helldivers 2 absolutely devour their lunch lol

VenomUK2h ago(Edited 1h ago)

-Oh my God, this game looks like a complete rip-off of Helldivers II!

-At least it gives Xbox players the chance to experience something similar to the PlayStation game!

Jokes aside it does make you wonder why Sony, who owns the IP for both, is continuing with two products when there is such overlap. Should it one day make a new Starship Troopers film or a Helldivers film instead?
