and am going to give a brief discussion about each game:-
* World of WarCraft *
Blizzard entertainment dominated the MMORPG world by giving us one of the most best games of all times, World of WarCraft is set after WarCraft III game has ended, you are set with alot of classes and races to choose from and start your quests in a massive world that is beautifully created by blizzard, the game is a well made and set aside all other MMORPG games.
* Black & White 2 *
Following its successor Black & White which was released by Lionhead studio's a " REMAKE ", if i can say that, of B&W came into stores, B&WII is a good remake, and cannot possibly be more than that, in the game you will take the role of a GOD and you duty is to take care of your followers and lead them to victory against others, honoestly the game steps out of that story plot abit and goes into strategy War game, honoestly i liked that style, but that destroys the fact of being a god, during the game, you will feel like a general trying to fight over lands and cities, the game has a solid engine and beautifull graphics, yet it lacks some issues , honoestly i enjoyed the game but cannot really say its one of the best.
* Fable TLC *
One of the Best games that came out from Lionhead Studioes, this is a Role playing game were you get to choose your own destiny of being good or evil, venturing through lands and completing quests and revealing your own story, the game is beautifull, graphic wise, story wise, i loved this game so much, its definitly one of the best out there..
* BattleField 2 *
EA following its BattleField frencies of games, BF2 came out and did quiet a good impact on the PVP world, new vehicles and weapons, all moderate, you will be a soldier of 3 factions of this moderate world, USA , China , and the middle east coalition, you get to fight over lands over the internet using different vehicles and solider kits available, the game was fun! and graphics were excellent, BUT the loading was horrible, it takes a really long time to load up a game, and when that happens you will discover that your are disconnected from the server, horrible, yet once you log in and start the war, the game is never ending fun!
* Need for Speed Most Wanted *
EA broke the barrier with one of the most entertaining games ever released in 2005, Need for Speed following its successor Need for Speed Underground 2, Need for speed Most wanted broke the standards with great graphics, smooth play, and HOT police chases, EA decided to bring the police into action this time, and they did great, but there isnt any game with problems or mistakes, NFS most wanted has its weaknesses aswell, you cannot possibly choose your upgrades from different vendors, you just have a set of kits that are available and your done, thats one of the minor issues, second, there are NO reply fuction what so ever,, how come? i bet people would like to see their hot police chases after they run away no? ;), another thing is the RACIEST way EA did by making the Europe version a normal one without the CAMARO and other ADDED cars that is available in the BLACK EDITION of USA, why? we dont deserve the Camaro? Curse you EA for doing that and for that only am going to rank this game low.. and why cant we enjoy the game with USA? we have to wait for 2 weeks? ok... fine.. Ranking low,, bastards..
* F.E.A.R. *
Fear is one of the best First Person shooters that came out in 2005, its a mixture of Horror and action, it has a good story yet was destroyed at the end, the people who created fear loved the RING way of making people get scared so they decided to include a little girl wondering around the levels spooking you and stuff, the game has great engine, and graphics were really well made, the best thing about FEAR is when you get into a fight, you FEEL you are in a fight, bullets flying everywhere, dust from hitting the way, the AI is great aswell, yet weak once you go against it for like 2 times, NOTHING CAN OUT SMART THE HUMAN BRAIN!, ;)
* Grand Theft Auto SA *
Sorry, Bad graphics, didnt even have a chance to play it because of the graphics, and why do i care about feeding and dressing? huh,, Rockstar, u made a bad game in my opinion..
* God Of War *
GoW is the BEST game ever released on the PS2, and its the only game that really matter in a PS2, since PS2 sucked so horribly, GoW is a role/action game which set you in a fantesy world, with mythical creatures, the game is excellent! and one of the BEST, storywise, graphic wise, beasts all other games..
* The Movies *
Lionhead wanted to make a Movie based game, were you are to direct a movie, build your studio, and do all other kinda stuff, BUT, the adverts about the game were really nice, QUOTING " There are THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS " of sets and motions you get to play around with, BUT, it isnt what i was expected, a let down really, made 1 movie and got bored with it almost quickly, graphic wise is like the SIMS, mostly the game was a good to go for like 2-4 days , then just throw it away..
* Quake 4 *
Quake 4 is Quake 3 Arena + Doom3 Engine
thats it :), Singleplayer story is good, but gets boring before you finish it
