Whats Hot, Whats not and Must try

Post by korn16ftl3 »

so i have been pondering to myself what are good games for these systems i own and thought maybe the forum members could also benefit from feed back from other members on what games to look into and maybe even perhaps help others fins those little hidden gems they never knew existed on XXX systems as well as what games to just say no to.

as far as form factor i was thinking something along the lines of this:

game name
system
region
rating:
hot = must own for your collection
not hot = stay the hell away from it
must try = its worth at least 1 play through and has some unique features that make the game stand out

(thus the title of the thread :D )

and of course links like youtube videos your own explanation or any other aids you may feel nessicary are welcome to help show the readers about the game(s) you listed

i hope we all have fun listing our favorite games and sharing with one another as well as perhaps bashing on a few poorly slapped together horrifying games :D (and beleive me i know these games exist also lol)

side note:
if there is already a similar thread i apologize i must not have seen it but have been about 3 pages deep into the general gaming section now and dont think i have seen any thing like this yet

Multiple systems, multiple regions
1 play through, but only among friends

thanks for the FYI will read those articles tomorrow for sure

those arent really open to discussion/debate at all i mean they are articles i was thinking that in a thread like this we can say we dislike XXX game for XXX reason (i hate games people generally like. example mass effect, Halo, Fallout 3)

my intentions with in this thread was to have a discussion (non-flaming of course flaming is NEVER welcome in any thread any where) about such things rather than just a list about this game is awesome kind of thing, completely opinion based

Not hot. Stay away. FAR away.
Not even worth the time to Google it just to see what exactly I am talking about.

So basically you want to have one thread dedicated to what we do in every other thread?
