Videogames of the year 2010

Yes this isn't films related but this counts as a special occasion and here are my top 5

1.Red Dead Redemption

Well this is what a game should be for me as it had a world full of character, depth and is also stunningly very detailed.

The ending is one the best endings for a videogame and the acting in it is the best from what I can remember in a videogame.

It also features a welsh guy cracked me up on single player with the best quote "Come on then boyo"

2.Alan Wake

A great game that I felt unfairly got a bit backlash as some people went into it expecting a different game. Like Red Dead the attention to detail is mind blowing with references to Rod Serling’s Night Gallery and Twilight Zone with Night Falls and an atmosphere of the old TV show Twin Peaks (Almost wrote Twin Town lol).

Unlike most DLC I felt it was worth every MS point as it expanded the game and story even further for me.

Highlight of the game is when we see Barry for the first time with his Christmas lights armour

3.Splinter Cell Conviction

I will go on all day about this one as I love denible ops on this game far too much!!!!!!

4.Kane and Lynch 2

I agree the controls are rubbish but are a big improvement from the first one, but it just has that atmosphere and living breathing environments that never feel like levels to me.

The multiplayer of fragile alliance, cops & robbers and undercover cop are just great fun to play. The controls for the multiplayer (same as the game) work spot on and doesn't hinder the MP at all from what I have played.

It is a shame its let down by controls in all honesty as the attention to detail in both Kane & Lynch are fantastic but as games...I agree both are very flawed but I still love them both (except towards the end of Kane Lynch 1).

                      Both these guys should be in the film but what is Jamie Foxx doing in it??

If you can find a copy of this for a tenner it's at least worth a go. But you will either like it (I doubt anyone will love it like me) or hate it.

5.Halo Reach

Thought it was quite good and not short at all from what I played. The Star Wars level was bunk though and I thought that would have been awesome. 

The hardest level was when you had to destroy the turrets and you are in the chopper with two of you firing the minigun and the other piloting with banshee's everywhere as well. Very annoying part but not as annoying as not knowing where to go half the time, could have put a better system in place to tell you where to go.

Highlight of the game the first level reminded me of the Brecon beacons a bit for some reason lol.
