Why does Chun Li have huge man hands?

No way in the world is Red Faction a better experiebce than unFAMOUS or even P'type for that matter. Never mind effin Peggle!

Ar least you had the good sense to ignore the risable(abd only worthy of 6/10 at best)RE5-the ONLY Resi I ever traded(and I still have Oitbreah and Umbrella Chronicles!). I didn't find it much like RE4 either-just an apalling SP ruined by babysitting Sheva who(was only there to accommodate co-op)isn't nearly as clever as she should be or Capcom think she is. And that bloody inventory(that, thanks Sheva) you use twice as much!

The only games that were good (IMO) were Killzone 2 (still is kinda boring though) and Street Fighter IV which i havent played but looks fun.

Awesome list Pop Cap is soooooo awesome. But I would replace Red Faction with Prototype granted though I've only played the demo for red faction. Though I also really enjoyed UfC undisputed 2009 but W/e =p

I can safely agree on street fighter and killzone, I think the rest suck dick.

IMO!!!!

Im getting GTA:CTW next tuesday, wohoo.

Good list. I completely agree with it although I have yet to try Red Faction.

SFIV was a disappointment

Mine so far are:
- Prototype
- inFamous
- Rock Band 2 (came out on PS3 in the UK this year so I'm counting it!)
- The House of the Dead: Overkill

GTA:CW looks completly stupid. I can't wait for it on psp but the ds game looks horrible.

Not to mention that SFIV has the hottest chick EVER to do voiceover work providing the voice for Rose. Mmmmmmmgiggity!

She's also a very talented impressionist and extremely funny and entertaining on a podcast she does with a funny fat guy. Its called the pretty good podcast if anyones curious.

I feel like someone has been reading my posts about metacritic lmao. The newly formed "boner for metacritic" section lol nice. Can we name it the Howetzer section for short? I may fault you guys on some things but hey I'll tell ya what, at least you guys seem to listen to your fans and that is a great thing in my opinion.
I will go ahead and say thank you for that, also good choices, I have not played them all, but they seem like fine games I guess I was surprised that your 9/10 prototype wasn't on this list though, mayhap you've come to realize your mistake? Surely I jest about all of the above, but it is interesting this new boner for metacritic section is it not?

lol Anyways good article guys.

Eh I really thought Street Fighter IV and Red Faction were completely overated. Street FIghter seemed shallow and there weren't enough moves to satisfy me. Plus it's a fighter so someone can win by randomly smashing buttons which is dumb. As for Red Faction the crappy story and weak gameplay (wish critics seem to pass over) made it a 6 in my book. I get that destruction is cool but it's not the only thing that is important. Just my two cents.

@howetzer

ya dude... you really did mess their minds enough to think "well, if you don't trust OUR scores, here's what the masses think of it." Then again... that might've been just that infamous review and not necessarily you... you big headed fanboy (what console where you the fanboy of? i forgets)
