Gameplayer Writes:
BioWare's DS debut is about as complete an RPG title as you'll ever play on the handheld. And that's without the inclusion of Sonic and friends adding character and charm. Everything in Chronicles is slick. From the control method to the dialogue, it all works incredibly well. You'll never find yourself thinking too much about anything, as it's so wonderfully easy to use.
From the article, "For years, millions of true Bioware fans have waited for the conclusion to the epic tale of friendship, loss and eggmans that was Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood . We have held on to hope against the odds as evil corporation EA has forced Bioware to develop lesser sequels such as Dragon Age and Mass Effect, truly cementing its place as the Worst Corporation in the World. Well let [Lucas White] tell you something, brothers: our patience has finally paid off."
This time Paranerds.com look into Sonic games that were going downhill on the consoles, but going uphill on portable systems. We also speak about the new characters along with Silver the Hedgehog and Shadow the Hedgehog.
Brandon Thompson writes: "While there are a lot of bad sequels out there, we've decided to single out the top five we think are the worst. Just like every list, not everyone will be happy with our choices. 2K Sports fans will no doubt wonder why the list isn't compiled completely of EA Sports' Madden releases which rarely improve. Fans of series we've chosen will certainly get mad like they always do. However we're sure that many gamers will agree that the list that follows is pretty accurate."
I have yet to see a single article from GoFanboy that wasn't complete trash. KOTOR 2? SMB 2? Chrono Cross? MGS 2? I loved all of those games. How do you put a game that never even got made as the number 1 game on the list? A non-existent game isn't exactly a BAD game, now is it?
Sonic titles since Dreamcast, OK, I'll give you that, they were a definite let-down.
All of the other 5 honorable mentions (Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure, Dr3ver, NHL Blades of Steel 2000, Turok: Evolution, Bomberman: Act Zero) SHOULD have made up the actual top 5, because those were some schlock, crap, awful sequels.
Metal Gear Solid 2, huh? Guess it sucked enough to make MGS3,4, Portable OPS, MGS Ac!d, Peacewalker, itouch. I would have really added Spy Hunter 2 to the real list. Boy did that game suck.
DMC2 sucked. Even Dante's melo dumbass personality sucked. The game deserves a sequel.
Wow, just wow. WOW. WOOOOOOOW. Brandon Thompson is an absolute f*ckin' retard. I think he might actually be the stupidest person I have ever seen in my life. I can't emphasize enough how truly impaired he is.
I can understand Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II. I can understand the Sonic sequels, and even Duke Nukem Forever.
Chrono Cross? Are you f*cking serious? What...really? Really? It was a worthy sequel (if that, the stories were unrelated from each other with some slight references to Chrono Trigger) - one of quality, a dying breed. We don't get games of this quality anymore. Everything about that game SPOOGED excellence. The story was amazingly in-depth. From a logical standpoint, Chrono Cross' story was more in-depth than Chrono Trigger's could ever hope to be because it was made for the SNES. When RPGs went to discs, the discs allowed MUCH more data to be stored, allowing for longer, more intricate storylines. To think otherwise would make you ultimately ignorant as hell. THINK. More so, the battle system was unique from any other RPG ever made and no other RPG or game has managed to replicate its success. Do I even need to mention the score, composed by Yasunori Mitsuda? It was a masterpiece that sealed the deal and topped this game off as one of the greatest we'll ever have the privilege of seeing.
Brandon Thompson should not ever, under any circumstances, be allowed to speak his opinion ever again. In fact, people whose idiocy reach a level this high should, by law, have their speaking privileges revoked immediately.
Sorry, but this definitely needs to be said here. It's because of people like him is why we don't get games of quality anymore. Because people like him, the bottom feeders, demand "quick-buck" games instead of works of art. Because of these rejects, our games over the years have turned to absolute sh*t. Seriously, Brandon Thompson, don't speak. Ever again. You. F*cking. Idiot.
Furthermore, why isn't MODERN WARFARE 2 on this list? That is by far the worst sequel in video gaming history. Bar none.
Super mario bros USA was actually a good platformer, it was unique as well.
I seriously hope Nintendo pulls a number 2 on that one.
And duky nuky is vaporware so what is he on about.
