I love the idea of a survival-type experience in games. My secret shame of this year is not getting around to stuff like State of Decay. The Last of Us ultimately ended up being a little more forgiving than I would have liked in that department (even on hard), but the gut-wrenching story and likable characters pulled me in from the start. Watching Ellie get warped by the world around her chills me a little every time I think about it.

Fuck what you heard, Pokemon is forever. This game is perfect. Also, runner-up

Ken Levine, will you marry me?

Stanley is me. I am Stanley.

Frank Frazetta meats (sic) Legend of Mana.

The story has its fits and starts and the characters seem a little cardboard-cut-out at times. I can't really deny that. But robbing that jewelry store for the first time, watching that money tick up as I was grabbing the loot... I dunno man it was magical.

Gets the "Best Crackdown Reboot" award. Game would be higher on the list if I had played it on a nice PC. The PS3 version looked like ass and ran like shit.

As a kid I loved Studio Ghibli movies, and this game brought me right back. It doesn't hurt that I'm a fucking sucker for Pokemon.
-
The ending is terrible. TERRIBLE. But I always wanted to see what was going to happen next. Solid acting from Willem Dafoe and Ellen Paige.
You know, now that we're talking about this game and The Last of Us I want to get this out of the way: Ellie does not look like Ellen Paige at all, despite similarities between their faces, names, voices... Nevermind

There are nine games better than brothers, but not ten.
