Just a top 5 List of Games I like...
Yes, I am a gamer... and yes, I suck terribly at it. But that doesn't stop me from being there from the moment I could... which was the 80s for me. I know a lot of you think you're cooler cause of your ataris, but ataris suck balls and you know it. It's all about NINTENDO. Suck it dry.
Behold, my TOP 5... by series, screw choosing.
5. Street Fighter Series (Fighter category)
Two things make this game sweet, Chun-Li's legs. Aside from that, using Ken is freakin' sweet. The controls are tight, if you die in this game, that's because you pushed the wrong button and/or didn't push it at all. Back when there was mostly only Street Fighter II, learning ALL the moves was the thing to do. When this baby made it to the SNES - I kicked all of my little cousin's asses left and right. And there's very little out there that could fix that.
Runner ups: Mortal Kombat & Soulcalibur series.
4. Mario Bros. Series (Side-scroller category)
If you don't like Mario then that's probably because you're retarded. The best thing about mario are the tight controls and the variety of games this franchise has spawned. Including, yet not limited to: a blockbuster mediocre film that you know you went to watch at the movie theatre and of course, Mario Party - the best spin-off of the series. Let's completely ignore the 'sports' sidetrack - and let's now focus on the main games... they rule. End of story. Let's move on.
Runner ups: Mega Man & Contra series.
3. Grand Theft Auto Series (Action/Driving/Guns category)
Don't come at me with any stories about how this game is bad for the children, because every child (particularly boys) who wants to grow some knows that this is it. The games are, summed up in one word: AWESOME. From the sweet 80s soundtrack that the Vice City ones brought, to the extremely large world that was San Andreas - lest not forget that you can drive while listening to music and plowing down pedestrians (like all other games wanted to since the beginning of gaming but were, A: too much of a pussy to do it, or had retards for programmers.) you can also have sex with hookers for health, and best of you get respect. if only Rodney Dangerfield had played this game, he would have died a happy man; but he didn't, so that kind of sucks.
Runner ups: Metal Gear & Burnout series.
2. God of War Series (Adventure category)
This series are awesome, not because they brought anything new to the gaming world, but because they pulled of what many promised to - the gameplay is epic, has sweet music & tons of mythological beasties you get to gore. Also there's tits. Our hero is bad-ass and the game allows you to show your quality in a quest that's not just unlike others wanted to... but the way we deserve it. Now, if for the sequels we can start going into other mythos, then this company can earn my hard earned cash... once they hit the Greatest Hits stands.
Runner ups: Zelda & Final Fantasy series.
1. Resident Evil Series (Survival horror category)
These series are so utterly awesome I can't even begin. From the time the pixelated zombie turns at you after enjoying the most horrendous video opening in the Playstation version, to the recent ground breaking Resident Evil 4... you all know who is boss. I remember playing RE 2 on the PS and just spending hours upon hours on those suckers. And when they released Resident Evil for gamecube, that game is still one of the most beautiful pieces of magic I've ever bestowed my time upon. With awesome titles such as Codename: Veronica, and a slew of crap spin-offs, PLUS as amazingly weak big blockbuster movie franchise. You all need to bow down and enjoy some sweet zombie action... plus the puzzles just piss you off enough to grant you an Indiana Jones badge. Oh, and before I forget... Jill Valentine is smoking.
Runner ups: Silent Hill & Castlevania series.
Great, we're done here for now... in the meantime, keep a lid on it & you're welcomed.
