  Eradicator's Top Ten (Updated)

  Hey everyone!! While I was surfing on GS today I realised that I hadn't blogged here for some time and thought that I'll take some time out and write something... Generally my blogs are either about my photoshop designs, unions, school results etc.... so I thought of doing something special this time around and went on to create some 'Top 10 Lists'. This blog includes my top 10 games, movies, songs, GFX designers, directors and soundtracks and I'll add a few more asap

  Top 10 Games (With Rating):
  1. Prince of Persia: Warrior Within | 9.3
  2. Gears of War (Temp) | 9.2
  3. Portal | 9.0
  4. Prince of Persia: Sands of Time | 9.0
  5. Unreal Tournament G.O.T.Y.E | 8.9
  6. Crysis | 8.9
  7. Age of Empires II | 8.8
  8. Assassin's Creed (Temp) | 8.6
  9. Age of Empires III | 8.6
  10.Star Wars: KOTOR II | 8.5

  Yeah, I just love Warrior Within. That game will remain at that spot till I complete Gears of War and find it worth a 9.5.... I still have to try it online. #3 was hard to choose but I think Portal deserves it.... its a revolutionary game. Sands of time is at the 4th spot coz it had gorgeous graphics and was ahead of its time and also it was the first game I ever completed. Even tho, the recent Unreal Tourneytitles haven't impressed me that much I think GOTYE was a cl@ssic game, real fun and highly addictive. Crysis is one of the finest FPSs that I've ever played, even tho the campaign was short, the physics, graphics and the gameplay were just amazing. Moving on to the next spot, we have AoE 2 which is the best RTS to date def. even AoE 3 couldn't take its place but that game is also great and deserves a spot on this list. Assassins Creed is at #8 and believe me this game was numero uno on my list few weeks back but then as I kept playing it, it became really boring coz of its limitations. Ubisoft has a done a fine job with the game but there isn't really much to do in the cities and you find yourself doing the same thing over and over again everywhere you go. The last game, but certainly not the least, on the list is Star Wars: KOTOR II which is probably the only RPG that I've ever played from start to end and I really enjoyed it.

  Top 10 Movies (With Rating):
  1. The Dark Knight | 9.5
  2. Lord of The Rings Trilogy | 9.4
  3. The Daparted | 9.2
  4. Pursuit of Happyness | 9.1
  5. Spider-Man 2 | 9.0
  6. Bourne Ultimatum | 8.9
  7. The Simpsons Movie | 8.9
  8. Iron Man | 8.8
  9. Legend of Bhagat Singh | 8.7
  10. Gandhi | 8.6

  I saw Drak Knight yesterday and it was a great movie. I loved everything about the movie. Hats off to Christopher Nolan for his great direction and hats off to Heath Ledger as well for his brilliant acting as the Joker. LOTR trilogy is next in line and is certainly one of the finest works of Hollywood. The Daparted was a very good film as well. The acting was of top quality. #4 is Will smith's finest (acc. to me offcourse) Pursuit of Happyness which is a 2006 American biographical film directed by Gabriele Muccino about the on and off-homeless salesman-turned-stockbroker Chris Gardner, followed by one of my fav. superhero movies, Spiderman 2, which was way better than the third one, that rather disappointed me. The Bourne series itself is really good and I just loved 'Ultimatum' so I placed it at No.6. #7 is the Simpsons movie which is my favorite animated movie of all time. This is followed by Iron Man, another good superhero movie. This is followed by my favourite hindi movie, Legend of Bhagat Singh, directed by Rajkumar Santoshi who is one of my favorite directors as well. Gandhi, the hollywood film by Richard Attenborough was very well directed and the role of Gandhi was very well portrayed by Ben Kingsley, this film is at No.10.

  My 4th Review

  I just completed my 4th review. This one is for Prince of persia: Warrior Within and I have given it a 9.3 but because of GS's reviewing system I had to give it a 9.5. Here is an excrept:

  "When Sands of time released in 2003 it amazed gamers with its great and gorgeous looking environments and became really popular because of its subtle character and charming looks. Since this was the first 3D game of Prince of Persia, expectations were high and this game really stunned and surprised everyone and became a huge hit among its fans. Its sequel, Warrior Within has nothing less to offer. The game released after a year and was amazingly different. The new dark tone might not look good to everyone but it certainly impressed me. Ubisoft Montreal made up for their biggest mistake and made a long campaign for the game making it a great and worthy sequel."
