There are millions of whiny 5-year olds on Earth, and I AM THEIR KING.
Dammit TDG, what are the 50 games? GAF said MS had no games this year, where did those 50 came from?

Wrong thread, but so basically you like one and only genre of music??? There is a huge variety of DLC highlighted (for me) by Weezer, Smashing Pumpkins, Oasis, Stone Temple Pilots, Black Sabbath, and Queens of the Stone Age. On top of that, you've got Metallica, David Bowie, CCR, Rush, and even the damn Monkees. I don't understand statements like this...

At least OXM's reviews aren't always in line with PLAY Magazines "OMFGBBQ 10!!!!!!!!!" reviews.

We both know that no one at any of these mags cares about sports games. Intihar is all we've got.

I didn't like it either. But like them, I didn't "get" it.
Still, it's better than Yaris, at least.

I'm probably the only person here who is sad that Jade Empire 2 isn't in the works.
JE2 with a GoW type combat engine and the ME dialog engine would be sweet.

The idea that Undertow isn't complete shit, let alone is better than Space Giraffe, fills me with deep sadness.

That reminds me why I don't read OXM (Or any other future publications)

That sadness you're feeling is also known as reality.
Space Giraffe is a pile of crap. Someone get Minter a copy of Rez HD, STAT. That's how a trippy game is done, you old hippie burnout. Wipe away those tears and pay attention.

While Rez HD is a great game and I enjoy it. It's the Smash Bros of trippy shooters to Space Giraffes Street Fighter 3rd Strike. Rez you sit there and mash a button. Space Giraffe you have to change the way you think about games and learn, and to change your strategy every 10 levels.
If you like Space Giraffe or not, saying it's the worst game of the year is a stretch for even the most hardcore of haters. I mean come on, look at some of the crap we got last year.
Hey now. I named the thread after the cover story. The OP has tons of stuff. I had always intended to post the list, as insignifigant as it is, after I got back from my eye exam, but my computer isn't working, so I'm posting from my PSP.itsgreen said:
As I mentioned, I'm happy to share details from any of the previews.
Mar_ said:
I was going to link to the Metacritic page for Hot Wheels: Beat That!, which I honestly consider to be the worst game released for the 360 last year, if not ever. But then I saw that OXM gave it a 6.5.
So...yeah. Diff'rent strokes to rule the world, and all that, I guess.

Space Giraffe is one of the best games on the arcade platform... along with Rez, Lumines, and GeoWars. Calling it the worst is absurd. They're professionals right? They couldn't figure the game out or what? Mother flippin. Bullshit. Assholes.
