Player Affinity writes: "This has been a bad year so far for the Xbox, at least when compared t the first half of last year. In early 2010 games like Mass Effect 2, Bad company 2, Bayonetta and Red Dead Redemption were all released to huge critical acclaim, and massive sales. Alas, only a couple of big games this year have lived up to their hype and they’ve been multi-platform releases. Struggling to redeem our platform of choice, our Xbox team of Charles Battersby, Curtis Bloomfield and Alex Martinet look back at the best Xbox games of the first half of 2011."
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
Video games are no longer just a simple past time. Today's games are evolving into true works of art. Offering intriguing narratives, cinematic setpieces, and profound messages, games can entertain us for hundreds of hours.
I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now
Guess Playeraffinity.com doesn't PLAY games if you have to 'struggle to redeem your platform of choice'..Actual gamers who played games didn't..
Child of Eden
Dead Space 2
Crysis 2
Portal 2
Bulletstorm
Dragon Age 2
LA. Noire
FEAR 3
Section 8: Prejudice
Red Faction: Armageddon
Mortal Kombat
Marvel vs. Capcom 2
But you really are going to try to convince actual gamers that Cthullu save the world and Ms. Splosion beat most of this entire list?
