Much like the Oscars tend to ignore movies released between January and September, end-of-year game awards usually forget the top-notch software released in the first six months. It's true that the holiday shopping season is stacked with surefire hits, but let's not forget the games that kept boredom at bay when 2009 was still the New Year.
Bandai Namco is considering working on a remastered version of its 2011 fighting game, Tekken Tag Tournament 2, for modern platforms.
The RPG based on a new IP, new characters, would have a very hard time getting approved at big companies like Ubisoft, says Sandfall boss, and added it would have taken 25 years to develop.
Oh yes. Passion projects and especially turn based are a no no to the big heads. Sandfall really showed em what's up
Hopefully this is a wake up call for the big publishers to revive the AA model.
Stellar Blade was another great example just a year ago
This game just had that magic for me.
Same feeling I had playing Astrobot. This I my GOTY so far
Come check out who took the major prizes at this year’s BIG Festival, hosted by gamescom latam 2025.
Hey everybody! this year so far, I played 5 great games! next month will be 6, then the month after that will be 7, then 9, then 12 great games! wow! my comment right now is as pointless as this article....
RE5 was nowhere to be found.
to be honest though - a list like this really is bogus. a "best of" at the END of the year is all that's needed.
Technically, inFAMOUS currently has the same score as Red Faction on Metacritic-85%, only it has been reviewed by more outlets, making it more difficult to maintain a high average.
But none of it really matters anyway, since I can go to many different reviews and find publications whose scores are missing.
lol Peggle is in there. Peggle ftw
