When was the last time you were surprised by a game?

[spacecowboy86]

"x-men, the official game" had one suprisingly redeeming quality that made up for an otherwise typical movie based game... Nightcrawler levels.
seriously, if someone makes a game based on the Nightcrawler mechanics from that game, but bigger levels, better story, and maybe some more combo moves, they will have my money faster than [insert strange analogy for quickness] on roller skates.

a little game called Lumines.

If you have the right model of PSP with a certain kind of firmware (there's ways to downgrade), you can use specail save files with Lumines to hack your PSP, so you can download entire games onto it. But you wouldn't do that, because piracy is bad M'kay.
And if any mods ask, you didn't hear all of that from me...

OT:

KOTOR 1, but I did just beat last weekend.

Wait, so I'm actually ********!

I guess Dawn of War 2 turned out to be completely different from what I imagined it to be. That's why I gave up on it; too different from the original.

Have you tried Lumines 2? I fucking love that game for all the good reasons.

well, I have three recent ones

Cryostasis' ending was really fulfilling and satisfactory to me, I legitimately felt that I did something good *self esteem is for everybody*

the graphics of Odin Sphere, my god does that game look amazing, so well animated and so colorful, especially for being all hand drawn

and Crysis 2, just for the feel of freedom that I had, which, for some reason, felt better than in the original Crysis. Hell, it basically surprised me whenever I bumped into an invisible wall in Crysis 2

I don't get surprised by games because I don't buy games anywhere close to the release date.

the last games i was surprise by were portal 2, lbp 2, uncharted 2, heavy rain, and halo: reach (went in expecting the worst after that $60 expansion odst). although i have never played mgs, i was very surprise by the soundtrack. and mass effect(the reapers will die in 2012)

Team Fortress 2
I thought i hated multiplayer... 180 hours later and my grades started slipping

 

[Tartarga]
