-infinite warfare (this one)

Correct me if I'm missing any

Didn't they have evil demons and robots and whatever during ww2 in this universe? Pretty sure I remember fighting demons in RTCW.

Anyway, I guess they'd establish small garrisons and use local enforcers or something.

This all looks a bit CoD to me, and not the good parts, the MW3 parts.

A great list by yahtzee... Granted the last is easily agreed on...

MW3 is basically Call of Duty: Black Ops (2010)
which is basically Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2009)
which is basically Call of Duty: World at War (2008)
which is basically Call of Duty: Modern Warefare (2007)
which is basically Call of Duty 3 (2006)
which is basically Call of Duty 2 (2005)

Final Fantasy better watch out! come another seven years (if they don't make any more FFs) you are going to get lapped in the number of sequels!

Note: Madden doesn't count...

I like how when Portal 2 came out he eviscerated it with faint praise, but now that the year's over it turns out to be his favorite thing that came out all year.

And it pains me to say this, but he was right on both counts.

2011 fucking blew. GoW 3 was a letdown, so was Uncharted 3, so was AC: Revelations (which didn't reveal jack shit), all of which I'd been very much looking forward to.

I hear that other people really love Skyrim, but given that I almost instantly lost interest in both Oblivion and Fallout 3 when I played them, I'm just gonna save my money and not bother.

And I'm with Yahtzee about MW3/BF3, sorta. I don't really think they deserve to be singled out as garbage, they're just totally and completely not my cup of tea.

Here's hoping 2012 will be a bit less of a letdown!

I like FPS games, so naturally I fucking despise MW3 and Battlefield3.

Technically ofc they are fantastic, but they are the videogame equivalent of the Transformers movies. Same tired formula over and over. Its a cynical money grab made by businessmen, and what saddens me is that people allow this shit factory to profit. Like Hollywood.

I can't agree with him on the last one, but otherwise fine fine.

That's because, no offense intended, like everyone else who keeps buying these games you're a sycophantic idiot who happily swallows whatever tiresome, un-original, unimaginative, over-rated swollen appendage the major publishers choose to repetitively cram down your open throat year after year.
All the best.

I must say, I'm getting pretty tired of the hipster "you've probably never heard of the games I play" attitude that is prevalent in PC gaming. The "You like Modern Warfare 3? That's cute, personally I'm more into SpaceChem but whatever" attitude. This is probably unfair on you @therealblankman but this certainly applies to a lot of people.
You know why we have BF3 and MW3? Because BFBC2 and MW2 sold well. Why was that? Because people liked them. Not because major mainstream publishers told us to like them, but because we actually did like them, in general. I don't care for MW3 but I bought Skyrim because I like "dumbed down, overly simplified RPGs" like Oblivion.
I don't think less of people who prefer MW3 to X3. I think less of people who play them on consoles, but that's because console gamers are simply genetically inferior.


Like I said to gwiz when I pm'd him: I don't begrudge these games simply because they're successful. Hell, these game's biggest crimes are that they're simply repetitive, derivative, formulaic and most egregious of all... BORING. If Twilight were a video game, it would be MWx. To quote H.L. Mencken "Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people".

Shit, if nobody made money off them then we wouldn't have games to play. My favorite games of the past year are both huge hits, but at least they're fun to play... Batman: Arkham City and Portal 2. Haven't gotten into Skyrim (yet), but that's only because I'm terrified that I'll have to quit my job and not have friends any more if I start playing it- I did play Oblivion so I know of what I speak.

As for consoles vs PCs, you're right of course. At least partially- I frankly got sick of spending $400 every year or so to upgrade my graphics card to be able to even play the latest and greatest, so I've given up and joined the PS3 darkside. But you know what, there's hope for that as well. Valve software is bridging that divide in the right way. I bought Portal 2 for PS3 but using a code I can also play it on my PC, and if I want to play Co-op with someone it doesn't matter whether they're on a PC or PS3 either! Maybe other publishers will do the same going forward, but I doubt it.

yahtzee is becoming an ever increasing twat. So MW3 and BF3 are THE worst games of 2011?? REALLY? What exactly is so bad about them? That they are sequels? That they make tons of money and are not "original"? They also have great sound design, great graphics (at least BF3), solid single player campaigns (although BF3 still trails behind) and great multiplayer gameplay (even though, contrary to what most people believe, they are two very different types of game. One is twitchy, fast and completely unrealistic, the other focuses more on cooperation, realism, and overall giant maps).

I understand perfectly why he may dislike both MW3 and BF3, but disliking something doesn't automatically make it the worst of something.

By Yathzee's unbelievably moronic standards, both MW3 and BF3 are incomparably worse than Call of Juarez. Which, by the way he somehow forgot out of the list of the worst games. Think about that nugget for a second. Not to mention MANY other shitty games (and shitty by all standards. Bad graphics, bad gameplay, bad sound, buggy, etc).

Interesting that Driver made it on the good list... probably doesn't mean the Wii version though. I have to agree with MW3/BF3. I am really over "realistic shooters". Give me more Serious Sam and Portal.

This is to be expected. I've always figured that eventually every game design studio will amass a complete collection of 3D models that just get re-worked slightly for each new game. It's a problem when they do it with character models and especially with animations... and there is tons of re-used animation in MW3.

I couldn't get an hour into MW3's campaign without spontaneously starting to make an involuntary gagging motion so I can't imagine how terrible BF3's must be ...
