Castlevania: Lords of Shadow

1. Castlevania: Lords of Shadow

Whipping feels good and the locales look amazing. The backtracking in order to get upgrades annoyed me, but I imagine it always will in any situation. Also, man, that epilogue makes me want a sequel bad.

Dead Rising 2: Case West

2. Dead Rising 2: Case West

I find the idea of an episodic Dead Rising far more palatable than a full game. It just gets kinda boring in one big area. For whatever reason, I liked Case Zero more than Case West though. Also, not being able to pick Chuck or Frank seems like a pretty big downer.

Resonance of Fate

3. Resonance of Fate

Interesting combat mechanics, though I'm not entirely certain what the plot was supposed to be. Might speedrun a second playthrough at a later date for the last couple of trophies.

Tales of Monkey Island Chapter 2: The Siege of Spinner Cay

4. Tales of Monkey Island Chapter 2: The Siege of Spinner Cay

Considering parts had me giggling like an idiot, I think the job of this game got accomplished.

Red Dead Redemption

5. Red Dead Redemption

Single tear for John Marston. Actually went out of my way to get the 100% completion even.

Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening

6. Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening

Well, they certainly weren't kidding about making rogues and warriors more powerful to make up for the whole mage dominance of the first offering. Powered my way through it in a weekend, and my 2-hander warrior felt like a badass while doing it.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2

7. Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2

Well, they got rid of the shitty qte laden boss battles of its predecessor, so that was certainly a step in the right direction. I thought it was fun, though the story seems like it ends fairly abruptly.

Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords

8. Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords

Man, this game is an abusive dick sometimes, but still pretty fun to play for like an hour or so before bed.

Nier

9. Nier

Pretty weird game, especially when it devolves into a black screen with large white text and you can still manage to get a game over while trapped in said text adventure. It took me about 40 hours to finish all the sidequests.

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow

10. Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow

Fun, but I had a hell of a time with the touchscreen crap for finishing off bosses. Slightly disappointed in myself for only getting a little over 50% of the souls, but the soul eater ring was still over 100k away from being purchased.
