I thought I'd list my favourite games of 2008. I've done this in no particular order as I couldn't honestly say that one game is better than another if they have little or no relation to each other. So here is a list of games that grabbed my attention through 2008.
- Fieldrunners (iPhone) - The guys that made this clearly put a lot of love into the game, its so much fun looks great and I cant put it down.
- FIFA 09 (Ps3) - For the first time ever I got FIFA not just before Pro Evo but instead of. Shocker!
- Grand Theft Auto 4 (Xbox 360) - The guys at North and NY did an amazing job on this, I loved playing through it, the characters we're top and the whole plot was very absorbing.
- Metal Gear Solid 4 (PS3) - Brilliant game, liked the story, loved the look of the game. Again this is one of those games that you can just tell has had a whole lot of love poured into it.
- Gears Of War 2 (Xbox 360) - Loved both Gears games, for some reason i just got really sucked into both of them, I think it must simply be the fundamental mechanics the cover system, sprinting into a crowd of Locust and chainsaws!
- Wipeout HD (PS3) - the best Wipeout game I've ever played, still going through it but love trying to get all of the gold medals, much fun and looks glorious.
- Patapon (PSP) - Brilliantly original and much fun, killed some time in the sun with this game.
- Call of Duty World At War (PS3) - You cant seem to go far wrong with COD games, yeah we've all played plenty of WW2 games but for me they always deliver, and I'm thoroughly enjoying WAW.
- World Of Warcraft (MAC) - I cant list games that caught my attention without mentioning WOW, 2008 was the first time I sat and played WOW, I got hooked. Still love the game now but try to be a little more careful of the time i spend on it.
- Fallout 3 (PS3) - Not yet played Fallout 3 in its entirety but what I've seen I have very much enjoyed, looking forward to getting my teeth back into it.
- Mirror's Edge - Only just started playing this, I love the novel idea and at times it plays really well, it can be frustrating but I urge you to look past the frustrating sections and give this a blast.
- Mario Kart (Wii) - Such a laugh when playing with friends, if you have a Wii its well worth getting it.
- Spore (MAC) - Only scratched the surface with Spore but so far I like what I see.
- Fable 2 - I fully intend to get this and give it the attention I hear it deserves.
- Dead Space - The trailers and hype got me intrigued, I loved the movie Event Horizon so anything that comes close to that in game format has got to be worth a look.
- Prince of Persia - The art looks awesome, cant wait to give this a look. Sands of time was an all time favourite of mine.
