2009 was a big year for video games, PS3 included, there was the launch of the New Xbox Experience and the introduction of the avatars in the dashboard for obviously the 360, and the PlayStation 3 borrowed the idea of avatars and created PlayStation Home, a virtual world where you go and explore the PlayStation Home and watch films, fly planes and generally meet and talk with new people a.k.a. Second life for the PS3.
The games consoles didn't stop there, they invaded television as well, PlayStation launched the BBC iPlayer allowing you to catch up on your favourite BBC programs, while Xbox was called Sony and raised it with the genius of the Sky Player, not only does allow you to catch up on favourite digital programs but watch live TV including football matches, movies, cartoons documentaries and anything else you can find on your sky box. But there is a downside, you have pay, just like everything else on the Xbox.
but that all secondary to what all gamer buy their consoles for, games and 2009 was big year for games, I'm sure I've said that already. First the multi-platform games. 2009 saw the release of Resident Evil 5, Street Fighter 4, FIFA 10, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Tekken 6 and of course Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 aka the best of all time.
But all these titles are not the game of the year, that accolade belongs Uncharted 2: Among Thieves for the PS3. Story telling, graphics, cut scenes, multi-player and game play this game has got it all, if I was to give this game a rating out of 10, this game would get an 13 and a half, the beginning alone deserves an 8.
If you have any suggestions for your game of the year, please comment.
