There, all better

[Norelco]

Opinion lists are stupid.

[SephYuyX]

1. This
2. Years
3. Games
4. Are
5. Made
6. Of
7. Fail
8. And
9. Poo
10. Ok?

Maybe it's just me, but I found this year to be very lackluster. Sure there were some ok games, but there wasnt one game out this whole year that I was excited for. Portal would probably be my #1 if anything.

Next year however is shaping up quite nice for all systems.

Edit: Really though, not trying to start anything, but compared to past years it just seems all these games just fade into the background faster. Maybe it's because of the switch to the nextgens.

Can't wait for RE: 5. That game is going to own my soul. If I don't own a PS3 by then when that comes out, that will be the tipping point and I will give in and get that.

Time's top 10 list of the year.

9.Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation

Damnit Time, I wanted to hate you for this list too.

[Enkidu]

The Orange Box gets far too little recognition because of the big console FPS's, which are rather mediocre anyways. That's okay though, it keeps Valve honest.

[BRP]

I'm anti-list, especially when it is cross genre. Now "Top 10 games in no specific order"? I can dig that.

Um... no? 2007 is arguably the best year in games. Maybe not in your opinion but it had a big list of AAA titles. Name another year that had more big titles than 2007

[Exoduso]

2008 will lol.

SSBB/MGS/DMC/NG2, etc. etc.

OH SWEET LOOK AT ALL THOSE CARS!

[Stee]

I've never been a racing simulator fan so whenever anyone said anything about GT I just sort of looked the other way but this looks awesome. Is this one of those games where you can use the steering wheel accessories?

[Exoduso]

Go drive in a real car.

Give me the keys to your 350.

[Exoduso]

There's no actual key lol, you press a button to turn it on/off.. ;x

Yes, and I've tried using one of the Logitech ones on the PS2, but the wheel feedback is horribly slow and unrealistic, so I just use the controller, which at least allows for more precise handling.

Doesn't the proximity sensor still have an actual key inside? In the event that the batteries die, you should always have a way to get into the car. At least that's how the IS350 is.

EDIT: Nevermind, you guys were talking about the IS350, not the 350Z. So yea, there is a key in the proximity sensor.

Its called a crowbar.

As far as a list goes, that one has most of the best games of the year on it. As far as the actual order, its all arbitrary anyway.

I don't know how accurate this is, but I generally trust RPGFan w/ info. Article says that Star Ocean 4 has been confirmed for the PS3/360, and is being developed as a three part series.
