Top 5 of 2011

I thought I  might do a top 5 list of the games of 2011. I've seen a lot of them online but these are my opinions.
5. Dead Island - I know many people have given it poor reviews and its buggy as hell, but there's a sense of accomplishment when you decapitate 3 zombies with one swing or blow up a mate by shooting a explosive barrel next to them.
4. Lord of the Rings War in the North - This one is on more for it's story. It's good to actually get a new Lord of the Rings story that wasn't shit like The Third Age. Plus it's good to have a new Lord of the Rings game overall as well.
3. Bastion - I'm not one for buying indie games, but I saw a let's play of it and I knew I had to have it. After a few minutes of playing it, my whole perspective on Indie games had changed and it was because of Bastion that  I have started to look more into the Indie game market.
2. Skyrim - While not being the best Elder Scrolls game, it still was good to get back into it's world though. I had a contradictory mind on what Skyrim was going to be like, was it going to be as good as Oblivion of Morrowind or is it going to falter like Fallout: New Vegas. In the end, it was in between those two outcomes. I still loved the game and have put in countless hours into playing it.
1. The Old Republic - Even though I have only been playing it for the past few days, I believe it to be my most favorite game of 2011. I think instead of giving a full explanation, I will give you short one or two word points that describe the awesomeness of this game. Star Wars, Story, Multiplayer, Space Combat, Flashpoints, Group Heroics, Music. And I guess there is one other major point why I love it. Finally we get a sequel to Knights of the Old Republic.

Merry Christmas All

So it's Christmas in my little part of the world and it couldn't have gone better so far. But bloody hell, 16.4gb install for The Old Republic. I guess it's all the sound files.

Early Christmas

Well some of my Christmas presents came early (Well not to early, it is Christmas Eve here) and I finally got A Game of Thrones. YAY READING!

Flash Mob Greatness

So The Old Republic ran a flash "Freeze" mob to help promote the release of the game. Watch a video below.

Greatest Family Guy Scene Ever

Well except for the Star Wars episodes.

Also don't know if any of you noticed this, but YouTube has a special Christmas thing where the dot that goes across the red bar is now a snowflake.

Changes to the Bat-Suit

The infographic is waayyy too big to post on here so I'm just going to link you to it.
