I'm not saying they're not good, but I still put Naughty Dog and companies like Insomniac below companies like Valve, Bioware, Blizzard, etc.
Guh. Naughty Dog?
Their game was good, no doubt, but I'm not sure they're ready to hang with the big boys like Valve and BioWare yet. Jak and Daxter was good, Uncharted was decent and Uncharted 2 was awesome, but I don't think you can always consistently count on them to deliver AAA games like other big name devs quite yet.
Good lord this game blew.
Honestly, aside from like inFamous and Uncharted 2, the other exclusives just weren't that good.
Definitely agree with Uncharted 2. My god that game was amazing.
All in all, though, aide from Uncharted, thought the PlayStation exclusive list this year was kind of meh. Hopefully next year will be better.
Oh Pigma Dengar..
Good times.
Uncharted 2 had some good betrayals in it too.
At first I thought, "hey, maybe Kojima is making a thinly veiled criticism about the United States selling out to military contractors and before long all we'll need to do is hire private armies to do our dirty work."
And then he starts throwing in monkeys and dudes taking craps in the middle of the street and I think, "Nah."
At best, Kojima is a smart man's Michael Bay. He has some good ideas, but at heart, he likes making stories about chicks wi...
I dunno. I quit playing after the tenth incredibly boring, pointless monologue about nano machines.
Gameplay was decent. Graphics were amazing. Cutscenes looked stunning.
Terrible writing and horrid story absolutely killed it for me, though.
It's worth noting that this list only encompasses this generation of games.
What about old-school over hyped games?

I finally got around to playing Uncharted 2.
I've changed my pants three times. Words can not describe how fun that game is.
I thought it was surprisingly good. First one SUCKED. Second one was pleasantly fun.
Aw snap.
But yeah. MW2 could have been epic. Instead, it turned out to be a series of cool scenes thinly connected by a terrible story.
No Russian was supposed to be OMGWTF. Instead it was kind of like "Why the hell am I even here?"
Call me a hater if you want, but I totally thought Killzone 2 was going to suck like Haze.
Was pleasantly surprised by how good it was.
No Goldeneye: Rogue Agent?
Omnomnomnomnomnomnom
Good lord this game was bad. I think a D is overrating it a bit.
If this were anywhere but the Internet, the author of this BS article would be sued for libel.
Guh. I've had to buy gifts for people I hate before. Like my room mate's brother. That whiny little bastard.
Again, I'm not saying they're not good, but compare their accomplishments to other devs.
Valve -TF2, Portal, Half-Life 2 (widely acclaimed as some of the best games in the genre)
Naughty Dog: Jak and Daxter series, Uncharted 2
Naughty Dog is damn good, but their portfolio isnt as impressive or diverse as other companies.
