IGN announces best games of 2008
[ December 30th, 2008 ] Posted in » Otakuism, Video games
Seeing as I only care about the PS3, here they are:
Metal Gear Solid 4 has won a number of awards: Best action, Best Graphics and it was named PS3 game of the year.
LittleBigPlanet won a few too: Best platform, Best artistic design and many others.
Best fighting: Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix
Best music: Rock Band 2
Echochrome
Burn out Paradise
Best RPG: Fallout 3
Best shooter: Resistance 2
Best RPG: Valkyria Chronicles
Best original score: Eternal Sonata
I’m not exactly a fan of Resistance - played multi player at a friend’s house many moons ago, but I didn’t find it all too impressive. Also, I’m not a fan of Eternal Sonata - played the demo, but didn’t find it all too interesting.
Do wish they a reward for “Most exciting,” which of course would go to EndWar. Seeing my infantry trying to fire back at the enemy while tank shells raining down on them is too much to ignore. Definitely not the best strategy (Rock-Paper-Scissors type combat), but most certainly deserves something. Maybe it’s in another list?
Btw, Persona 4 won best PS2 game of ‘08 - w00t!
Can view the rest here. Do you agree with the list?
