  Best of 2010 and My Late Game of The Year Award

  Hi everyone. How are you? Is everything ok? I wanted to review all of the games I've played in 2010 and then write this blog but because of my exams and projects I couldn't do that.I had 5 exams in 5 days last week and I think I'll get good marks on them. Only one of my exams is remaining(on Tuesday) and after that I'll be more active here. Anyway let's talk about best of 2010.

  As I said in my previous blogs,I've played 8 games in 2010 and you can check them out here. My best of 2010 awards in each category goes to:

  1.Best Action game:

  COD Black Ops

  

  I love call of duty games and this one is my type of action game.The campaign was too short but amazing.The story is the best of it. I finished it twice on Recruit and Veteran.

  2.Best Action Adventure game:

  Alan Wake

  

  You can read my thoughts about this game here

  3.Best Strategy game:

  Starcraft 2:Wings of Liberty

  

  This game is sweet. SC2:WOL is one of the best strategy games of all time. The campaign is incredible and I love every moment of it. The ending is shocking. I recommend it to everyone whether he/she is a fan of strategy games or not.

  4.Best Beat'em up:

  Bayonetta

  

  The Character was so hot and the dialogs are funny. The battles are so huge because the bosses are as giants as skyscraper

  i)Best AI:

  Halo Reach

  

  This game is so tough even on lower difficulties. Your enemies have reactions to all of your shots and actions. You should play this game to understand what I'm saying.It's so challenging.

  ii)Best Boss Fights:

  Darksiders

  

  I choose Bayonetta for best beat'em up game but in this game,for killing every boss you should use different strategies and weapons.Every weapon you gain in this game is used.

  My 2010 game of the year:

  ALAN WAKE

  You know how muchI love this game. It's a big hit for X360.Unfortunately it came out with great games such as Red Dead Redemption and many gamers forgot to buy or rent this great game. I love its atmosphere,the way of its story telling. For anyone who has X360 and didn't play this game:

  "IT'S WORTH AT LEAST TO RENT.YOU WON'T GO WRONG WITH IT"

  Thanks for reading

  Review of Games in 2010 #1

  Hi everybody. Today I decided to write a series blog about the games I've played on 2010. As I said in my previous blog I've played 8 games on 2010. The first one of them was Bayonetta. I had written a blog about this game before and you can check it out ">here

  The second one was Alan wake. As you know, this game wanted to release on PC and X360 but then they decided to release it only on X360 exclusively. This game is masterpiece. I want to start from its story but I don't want to spoil it .Alan wake is a famous writer. He couldn't write any words on paper for a while.Then he and his wife decided to go out of city to a good place for resting. When they come to Bright Falls strange things are happened. I didn't say some events before that and at the starting of the game.I want to experience them yourself . The story is awesome and has a lot of great moments. The ending is not shocking and is predictable but the way of telling story is its best part. Alan wake has 6 episodes and this game is like a cinematic series like lost. The graphics are great.Most of the time you play during night in jungles and you can't see the beauty of jungle in day.

  

  The gameplay is innovative. Your weapon is light. Whitout it, you can't kill your enemies even by gun. You need toclear darkness from your enemy by your flashlight and then kill them buy gun. Sometimes you should fight with vehicles which are surrounded by darkness.

  The atmosphere is creepy. The sound design is unbelievable. Think you are alone in a dark jungle and you heard that something is behind you. This is the best horror action adventure that I've ever played in my whole life.I thank Remedy for making this great game.Don't miss it.

  I wanted to celebrate my 5th year being on GS 10 days ago but I forgot it . In these 5 years I've found many good friends around here.

  Thanks for reading

  I'm Back

  Hi everyone. How are you? I missed you. I'm back after 7 month to writing blogs. I'm sorry that I couldn't read many of your good blogs. I was very busy and I only came to GS for reading news and reviews and I didn't have much time to check out your blogs. In college we have a lot of projects to do. I didn't finish some of them yet but this is not my problem. The terms of life is changing here. Your mind is full of problems and you can't focus on anything. The cost of life is rising incrediblly. This is why I can't progress in my life. I don't want to disturb you but living in this condition is very difficult.

  Anyway I've only played eight games in 2010 and I replayed some of my old games.The games that I've played this year in order are:

  1. Bayonetta

  2. Alan Wake

  3. Split/Second (X360 version)

  4. Darksiders (X360 version)

  5. Starcraft 2:Wings Of Liberty

  6. Halo Reach

  7. Mafia 2 (PC version)

  8. Call Of Duty:Black Ops (X360 version)

  I've played some old games this year like Dead Space (PC version),NFS Shift (X360 version),Batman Arkham Asylum (X360 version),Trine (PC version) and some games that I played vey little like GTA IV (PC version) and Age Of Empires III.

  Next week my exams will be started and I'm studying my lessons. After finishing them I want to buy some of great games that I've missed this year like:

  1. Red Dead Redemption

  2. Vanquish

  3. Castlevania:Lord Of Shadows

  4. NFS:Hot Pursuit

  I want to write about the games I've played this year in my next blogs.

  Thanks for reading
