MB's 2008 List

Thought it'd be fun to look back on a great year for games. This was the year that the low-price download game became the centerpiece of gaming with Castle Crashers, World of Goo, Braid, etc. Long live the indies.

My Favs:
  • MegaMan 9 - WiiWare <-Buy this right now
  • No More Heroes - Wii
  • Apollo Justice - DS
  • Picross DS - DS
  • Yakuza 1/2 - PS2
  • Resident Evil 4 - Wii <-Like a whole new game, plays great
  • Steam PC Games- PC <-Never thought I'd play PC again, great service
  • Wario Shake - Wii <-Beautiful 2D hardcore game no one played
  • Rez HD -XBX Live <-Soooooo shiny
  • World of Goo -Wiiware <-The total package of innovative gameness
Dissapointed by:
  • Ninja Gaiden 2 -360 <-Beautiful game, too imbalanced/hard to be fun
Looking forward to:
  • RE5 -360
I missed:
  • Bionic Commando HD remake
  • Braid
  • Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia
Best Gaming Moments:
  • 360 is the Dreamcast 2, who knew? =D
  • Burning niche Ps2 shmups, everyone should
  • 5 hour RE5 demo completion with John
  • Portal end song
  • Emo Mario Kart vid
  • Castle Crashers Corn Boss/Deer riding level
