For me, Shadow the Hedgehog. I know they tried to make it edgy with shadow riding vehicles and shooting guns, but I still had fun playing it, picking up whatever weapon I could find and using it to my advantage, I loved how every level had some kind of post or pole that you can destroy to use and how they fixed that light dash trick, also the fact that you can do whatever you want for the story, even though the choices were pretty much black, grey and white.

what about you?

Just kidding. Probably Sonic Unleashed. The hedgehog stages were at least fun.

"What are we holding on to, Sam?"
"That there's some good in this world, and it's worth fighting for."

I had fun with The Lord of the Rings: War in the North, though I knew it was a pretty bad game while I was playing it.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

Sonic Unleashed and this one Looney Tunes game I own.
They were fun, if you weren't stuck on some impossibly hard point.

I remember, back when I was around ten or eleven, where that was the only GameCube game I played for many, many months. It was awesome.

This world wants to drag you down... And the weight, that guilt they want to hang around your neck, you don’t have to carry it one more step. You think they won’t let you rest, but it’s not up to them. It never was.

Spec Ops The Line. Idiots.

They took off points for the multiplayer even though the game didn't really suffer for it being there. As a result it got about 70% for some ratings.

Sex is a sensation caused by temptation, a guy sticks his location into a girl's destination to increase population for the next generation. Do you get my explanation, or do you need a demonstration?

Shadow the Hedgehog for GC


Biggest problem with that game is the fact that the whole morality system is shat on with the inclusion of last story.

OT: Sonic Unleashed. I enjoyed the hell out of this game, and I still do. And the critics generally gave it a worse score than 06? I swear they purposely made up BS just to attack it.

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

Kane and Lynch. It was like if Tarantino made a game, I liked it. I can understand why it got 6/10's across the board though, the gameplay was pretty bland. But come on, if Spec Ops: The Line's gameplay gets a pass just for it's good story, K&L should have in 2007.
