Looking back at your collection of games can lead to many discoveries, like which ones you bought used. Default Prime author Kyree Leary has made one such discovery. And even though he bought these games used, they led to many new game purchases. He thinks it evens out.
The Uncharted series is notable for its cinematic gameplay and style, and the set pieces are a big part of that. But which ones stood out the most? Which ones had us on the edge of our seat the whole time?
NoobFeed.com celebrates Halloween in style. Playing dress up at the local convention can be a little intimidating or even embarassing, so here are some ways to support fan faovirtes without losing face or shedding clothes. It's cold this time a year, so we can't have people running around with no clothes on. Happy Halloween!
"For this list I have decided to countdown my 10 favorite video games of all time, this is not a “10 best” list because I only want to cover games that I have actually played and there are some classics that I haven’t touched (like any of the Zelda games) But the games are in order and I have limited my choices to one per franchise. Here we go!"
In honor of the snowstorm that's blanketed much of the country, it's time to spotlight the best snowy, icy winter levels in video game history. Grab your jacket!
"Information about Uncharted 3 is currently also being kept hidden away in a safe somewhere. Needless to say it's coming, Nolan North (who plays Nathan Drake) has pretty much said he's already been doing voice work for it, so that's pretty much a given. What I really want to see from the good people at Naughty Dog though is a nice shiny release date in 2011 and possibly some equally shiny gameplay footage to go along with it. It would make me very happy indeed. Uncharted 2 is probably one of t..."
Whether gamers like him or not, Mark Wahlberg will be donning the jeans and ragged long-shirt that made Nathan Drake popular in a movie version of the popular game. The article lists a few reasons why that may not be such a good idea.
"The month of facial hair is finally underway, and in celebration of Movember we are saluting those moustachioed men across the globe and those who are still currently growing their man-hair above their top lip."
"We’ve all read countless “best franchise of all time” lists, and while they’re fun to write and then to argue about, there’s an inherent problem with the “all time” part – you have to consider the 30+ years of gaming history before you get to the modern generation. Heavy hitters like Zelda, Mario, Halo, Warcraft, Metal Gear and GTA are virtually guaranteed a place on the list, so how can there be much room left over for games of right now?
That’s why we’re ousting the old guard and choosin..."
""In lieu of actually reviewing Uncharted 2, we decided to focus on what exactly makes Uncharted 2 so radically badass.
However, rather than wasting time describing what sets Uncharted 2 apart from all the other games of 2009, we decided to stack up Naughty Dog's latest masterpiece against something the average, basement dwelling video game writer has never experienced --getting laid. While the results of this formal comparison were inconclusive due to a lack of any kind of real research an..."
"Gamers can debate all day about which video game character is the hottest; but there is no debate as to which console has the hottest exclusive game babes. The Playstation 3 has some of the best exclusive titles and among those are some of the hottest babes. We run down out top five ps3 babes. Sure we could have run down the usual list of fighters and Ninja Gaiden babes, but those aren’t exclusives. These women are only from games found on the Playstation this generation. As usual, we don’t n..."
"Ever sat around in a group of friends discussing games, when suddenly another friend enters and begins to label gaming childish? You are not alone, as every so often there will be those who give gaming the dreaded tag of being “for kids”. On behalf of all gamers, GamesCastLive would like to dedicate this article to all those out there who have decided that gaming is better suited for the ‘wee’ ones. Here are our five reasons to justify why grown men love their consoles."
"Valentines Day is just around the corner and as intoxicating aerial aromas go, love is in the air. Some of gaming’s favourite characters have had their own share of love in recent years and it’s time to take a look back at some of the greatest relationships, flirting and canoodeling that brought a tear to our eyes, or made us sick to our stomachs."
"This generation has seen its fair share of epic titles, captivating narratives and intense action -- but not very many iconic, unique, or influential game characters in comparison to previous generations. Luckily though, there are a few of these figures in the current generation."
"Nothing is certain in today’s game industry. But the closest you’ll come to a sure thing is that movies based on video games suck. There are exceptions, sure. But most of the time, gamers end up regretting their ticket purchase after watching their favorite game get some off the wall adaption on the silver screen that fails to encompass any of the elements that made the game so good. So to save the movie industry some time, we’ve compiled a list of the top 5 games that need to get big screen ..."
The staff over at Spawn Kill have come up with some not so run-o-the-mill game of the year categories and have finally chosen their picks for the year that was 2009. Check it out and let us know if you agree or disagree!
Over the past decade, Sony has been quite active at creating new franchises for their Playstation platforms. Their stable of new intellectual properties are diverse and, more importantly, top notch in quality.
"The last decade was an absolutely amazing one, at least where videogames were concerned. The new technologies of the past two console generations have enabled the medium to soar to incredible new heights, introducing entirely new types of experiences and – perhaps more notably – delivering the sexy better than ever before. The decade from 2000 to 2009 brought us increasingly realistic (or at least convincingly idealized) heroines and heroes that not only looked hot when rendered in 3D, but al..."
All Age Gaming has gone through all the Playstation 3 games that have been released to the end of 2009 and have come up with the Top 10 Games on the Playstation 3 so far. Although there are many great games scheduled to release over the coming months, any of the titles on this list are worthy additions to your collection.
"As 2009 came to a close, we posted a weeklong look at our favorite games of 2009. However, those 40 titles (including the eight we ultimately chose to honor as "The Best of the Best") were far from the only good games released last year. And did our picks match up with the rest of the game industry? But most importantly, what we really wanted to know was which game was truly the best game of 2009."
"Like Jack Bauer, Chuck Norris and Neil Patrick Harris rise above the station of mortal men and become legendary, so do some video games. While 2009 was a tough year for the industry, both financially and creatively, that didn't stop a handful of titles from being enshrined into the video game canon."

""2009 saw Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's record breaking launch, the return of Nathan Drake in Uncharted 2, new, groundbreaking experiences and traditional classics for the whole family. 2009 was a huge year for any type of gamer, no matter how you slice it.
So it is without further ado that GameZone presents our 2009 Game of the Year Awards. We took a look at the best and the brightest that this year had to offer, wracked our brains together in a rigorous voting process, and now we pres..."
"10. Resident Evil 5 - Capcom
Outstanding graphics and the addition of Co-op play to Capcom's long running Survival Horror series place Resident Evil 5 in our number 10 spot. Plagued with controversy over charging extra for multiplayer, an antiquated control system, and what some might call a racial slant to the game, Capcom still managed to craft one of the most entertaining gaming experiences of the year. Now if they could only make the Resident Evil series scary again....ah if wishes were ..."
There have been alot of games delayed or cancelled this year. But that doesn't mean there still aren't any games worth checking out in the next few months.
Go to the source for VideoGamer's list of Top 10 Games That Will Save 2009...
"ID Software was once the king of the first person shooter genre. They started it all with their iconic game Wolfeinstein and later on down the track the Doom series. Rage will be using ID’s new game engine labelled “id Tech 5” and at this stage it will have a mix of the FPS genre along with racing. Not a lot is known about Rage but what we do know so far is that Rage takes place in a post-apocalyptic world similar to the Mad Max movies. Designer Tim Willits revealed that the game takes place ..."
"This year will be a great one for video game fans, since were having an impressive bunch of very promising titles announced and, to be honest, I found it really hard to choose just 10 games since other highly promising titles like Borderlands, MAG, The Agency or Batman had to be left out. (And no, I did not forget about FFXIII which cant be included since it only comes in 2010). But enough talking! Lets check out the 10 hottest games to be released in 2009 for PS3 systems."
