The main reason Santa is so jolly is because he knows where all the bad girls live.

Nice list, but I have few issues with it:

1- How can Castlevania Judgement be on both "Biggest Disappointment" and "Game That We Knew Would Suck" categories, how can you be disappointed with it if you knew it would suck?

2- Fallout 3 hasn't made a new genre, it's basically is Oblivion with deferent settings.

heroicjanitor6332d ago (Edited 6332d ago )

Why is left 4 dead down as a 360 exclusive and it isn't mentioned on the pc?

"Game That Was Supposed To Be Good But Is Not" list is different from the "Biggest Disappointment" list. The categories seem pretty similar.

Naruto wasn't bad, Path of the Furon wasn't exclusive(here in Europe anyway) and the comment about anything based on existing ips(refer to earlier naruto feelings)

Other than those great list!

SinnedNogara6332d ago (Edited 6332d ago )

The difference between Biggest Disappointment and Games we Knew That Would Suck is different. Biggest Disappointment are games that we though "Just Maybe, this could be good" but they weren't. Games that We Knew Would Suck are games that made us think "OMG!! This will suck". I hate licensed games, and Path of the Furon was a exclusive in the United States, and I live here. I wish I remembered to add more stuff like Best Character, and Worst Character. I should add this huh?

SinnedNogara6332d ago (Edited 6332d ago )

Here is some new stuff:
Best New Character: Daedelus (Resistance 2)
Best Weapon of 2008: Splicer (Resistance 2)
Worst Opening Sequence: Haze
Worst Uwe Boll Movie: All of them

SinnedNogara6332d ago

Castlevania Judgement was on both categories because we were skeptical. On one hand, we thought that it would suck because it was a Castlevania 3D fighting game. On the other hand, it looked really good and could have been done right especially after the fact that Konami just released MGS4 months earlier and they could have had a role their. And that Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia was awesome. So it was a maybe, but it sucked otherwise.

I'd agree with nearly everything pal.

Is Dissidia out for the PSP yet? Did you mean Crisis Core?
