    Opinions on my new games (And before I start, lemme know if you have either of the first 2, or both, on PS3, and wanna get dat ass spanked.):


    NBA 2K13: Holy fuck, best Basketball game yet, as all the reviews have said. I hated it at first 'cause of the new control scheme, but as soon as you get the hang of it, it's hands down the best improvement 2K has made yet. It's so smooth and makes the game run so much more fluidly. Especially on Defense, I stay locked on niggas like glue now, been slaughtering the computer by 25+ points. Wanna actually play a (good) human and test myself out. The Jay-Z executive producing is obviously dope as shit too, the intro video was so G. So fucking straight up Hip Hop, and the soundtrack is the dopest yet, so much Yeezy, and the game starting up wit H.A.M. Playing is 2ILL.


    Madden 13: Best Madden since Madden 10. They really put in a lot of effort wit this one, which was nice after last year's excuse of a new entry, which was basically Madden 11 wit a new cover and updated rosters. The physics engine really adds to the game in a substantial way, but is also hilarious when it glitches (Like when Cutler was walking on the field after a play, tripped over a Lineman, and overdramatically flipped all the way forward onto his back. =)) ). Really don't like how much more complex they made it to do a Season Mode doe, I liked just hopping into it like it was wit all previous entries.


    Pokemon Black Version 2/Pokemon White Version 2:


    I mean, it's Pokemon, same shit as it's always been, but after playing it for only an hour, I'm already hooked. Major overhaul on the graphics, resolution, presentation, etc. . Every city so far is so colorful and lively, and more realistic in the sense that the interior of each building is more like real life buildings. Houses, for instance, are bigger on the inside, and instead of being just one big ass room like previous Pokemon games, are separated into separate rooms, and not only that, are painted different, like a real life house would be. For instance, I went into a house, and there was a beige painted living room, and then a bedroom wit a black and white zig zag pattern on the walls and bed, and then a wall separated both rooms from a full kitchen wit a stove, sink, and fridge, around the corner. Small additions that don't affect gameplay, but I feel that they make a big impact on the overall gaming experience. Not to mention, each area is fucking massive, there's a ranch you have to explore to search for a missing Pokemon, and it amazed me how big it was and how long I was walking around exploring the entire area, gives it more of an open world feel. They also added a lot more visual depth with the 2D/3D combination in the graphical presentation. Buildings actually look realistic in size now compared to you and any NPCs. They added more detail and animation to the battles now, and enhanced the HP/EXP/Battle Commands icons. Really love all the small additions and improvements, it really made a difference and made the game a lot more enjoyable to play, and they proved yet again that they can keep making the exact same formula that they've been using for 10+ years, and make it a fresh experience every single time.

    did you do that one thing where you can transfer your Game ID from the old game into the new one so you could get flashbacks that reference your character from the old one?

    GOTY gets released tonight. Xcom \m/
  • XenoXeno Posts: 21,137 master of ceremonies
    To be honest before Mass Effect 3 came out I thought that would be it, but that game did not meet my expectations.

    I'm trying to not overhype AC3 but I'm still pumped
  • MetalCoresadesMetalCoresades Posts: 58,088 spicy boy
    Honestly I think the only game that came out this year that I've gotten/getting is Mist of Panderia as far as I know...

    unless Sony All-Stars Battle Royal comes out this year... I cant even really think of what came out this year, or is coming out.
