Best Game: CoD4
Worst Game: Haze

Haze is a steaming pile. I thought about selling it back to GameStop, but I'm not gonna because I don't want anyone to contribute one more copy to the number out there. Worst FPS I have ever played! Not even close to challenging or fun.

For me:

Best Games: Saints Row 2 / Left 4 Dead

I really enjoyed it, still playing the game now. Think of Saints Row 1, with jets, choppers, bikes, 4 wheelers.... I found flying the jets is cool, you can jump out of them and get the base jump minigame....

There is sooo much to do in the game, I can see myself coming back to it alot. The best part is, you can play all the diversions, jobs, and missions in co-op. And they are executed very well.

The only gripe I have is the game is buggy, sometimes in co-op you'll get booted, but it doesn't happen that often.

The customization of you character is insane, you can change from male to female, get tattoos, piercings, tons of clothes... it's mindblowing how many options there are. you can change the way your character walks, so you can have him walk like a thug or pimp or just normal.

All the goodness from the first Saints Row is in this one, a huge garage with lots of cars, you can get unlimited sprint, the driving is sooo much better than GTA IV.

My advice is, get it if you enjoyed part 1. I played part 1 with a friend, we'd just swap out the controller, now we play online and the co-op is great. Having co-op for story missions was an instant buy for me. Too bad GTA didn't have that option.

Best Game: Fallout 3
Worst Game: Metal Gear Solid 4
Over-Hyped: Grand Theft Auto 4
Over-Looked: Saint's Row 2

Honorable Mentions: Gears of War 2, Left 4 Dead

I know I'm in the minority for MGS4. So many folks think it's the best thing since sliced bread... I thought it would have been much better with less cinematics and more action.

Best Game: Metal Gear Solid 4

Worst Game: Turning Point Fall of Liberty (didn't hate it, just wasn't as good as I expected from looking at the trailers)

Most Underrated: Little Big Planet

Best PSN Game: Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3 (simple but addictive)

Honorable mentions: Resistance 2, Dead Space and Motorstorm 2: Pacific Rift

[LifeOfAPirate13]

Best: Left4Dead and MGS4 as well as COD4.
Worst: I don't play crappy games for fun.

[CYMBOL]

Underated: LBP

Don't play enough games to give a qualified list.

Are we including games that were out last year, but have significant DLC?

PAIN was released last year, but I see it on people's list.

Anyway, I would have to list Warhawk in there somewhere. They released some great updates/content. Great new maps and gameplay along with updating in game music and trophies. It might not be the most played game anymore - but Incognito really supported this game and were always working for the fans of the game.

although cannot agree with your worst game pick because I haven't played it. It's on my list

Alot of folks have overlooked Saints Row 2. This is a case where the padawan has overcome the master.

Leave them in your trunk until you can sneak them in while she's in the shower

Honestly though, Saints Row 2 is a surprise hit for me. I liked the first one, but this one goes beyond....way beyond that one. It kept the fun aspects of the first and improved on issues.

JK it looks like you have enough on your plate as it is. Out of those, I am hoping to get Resistance 2 for christmas as I thought the first one was stellar.

You understand that "overrated" and "worst" are not the same concept yes?

If you thought MGS4 was worse than...say...Legendary, you need to have your head examined.

And I say this as someone who thought MGS4 was generally overrated. :P
