Rate The Last Game You Played

Just finished up Metroid Other M (WII) and it truly is as bad as people claim it is. First off anything to do with FPS mode in that game was freaking garbage, you're forced into this mode to look for clues and 90% I couldn't tell what the fook I was supposed to find. I'm not the only one since the net is filled with 100's of people getting stuck and luckly since I'm playing an 2 year old game there's plenty of helping guides.
The other part of FPS mode is you have to track you enemies with the pointer which means Samus has to be standing still to use it and it's the only way for you to fire super missiles which is needed for shielded enemy types. Hated it. Takes too long to charge (though you can find items in game to reduce charge) and some of the later bosses don't pause long enough for you do get an lock anyhow.
As for the side scroller segements they weren't as bad to play but there's too much backtracking and there's plenty of places for you to get stuck in as well. To many vents or doors where blended in with the environment that it was easy to miss them.
And then you have the story--there plot holes that just don't add up but overall it was an least somewhat enjoyable to watch.
If you avoided this one then you're better off, if you still intend to play--use an guide. Pixel hunting = lame.
An 4/10.

Deus Ex Human Revolution had four endings? Though you can choose any of the four regardless of how you played but there was four of them. One of them you destroyed the station and yourself in the process to prevent people from ever learning the truth, other one you exposed the truth, one of them you side with the suits and hide the facts, and one of them was something like attaining the power all for yourself.

yeah except the outcome is the same no matter which choice you choose actually (video after credits)
1)you choose Sarif's message, which allows for company's to experiment with augs with absolutely no regulation
2)you choose Taggart's message, heavy regulation of augs are passed but you end up supporting the Illuminati as a side effect
3)you choose Darrow's message and it scares everyone into abandoning aug research
4)you blow up the facility with you inside it and society doesn't know why the augs went crazy, forcing mankind to just figure it out themselves
anyways you can see all the endings here
but no matter what you do this is the outcome
now don't misunderstand, i'm not angry about since i went in knowing it was a prequel to the original deus ex and they had to tie the story together (and i loved the story up until then) it just destroyed the gravity of your final choice is all im saying (since i knew ahead of time).

Oh I see what you're talking about now, I must have nodded off during the credits because I missed the secret ending. Really hope they plan on "remaking" the orginal, damn that would be sweet :) . The orginal was pretty damn "flawed" but the story/setting/gameplay were all there. The damn bugs/glitches/AI/crashes/slowdowns needed to be addresesd. There was an fan site that used I think source engine and redone the whole game but I never did check that out.

Nintendo really have 2D side scrolling games down and Kirby's Return to Dreamland (WII) is another gem in nintendo's platformer library. It really doesn't have a plot and they teased me with four playable characters, namely there's no online play and you'll only get to be Kirby if you're playing single player like me. It's to bad they didn't have specific stages for the different characters that way a least you get to try them all out.
Still I can easily recommend this one an 8.5/10.
