Fun Friday: Missed Opportunities Edition


As the year is beginning to come to a close, I would like to take a moment to reflect on what I missed out on. I'm not a huge fan of lists but when I started thinking about the games on my list, it seemed quite substantial.

  1. Fallout3 - And I loved Oblivion so much.
  2. Castle Crashers - Bugs, plus it came out when we were doing a lot of OT.
  3. Dead Space - Looked cool until I played the demo.
  4. Prince of Persia - Hadn't been into the Prince since Sands of Time but looked promising until I heard that you could not fail.
  5. Tomb Raider: Underworld - No rush, I knew it was just another Croft adventure.
  6. Mirror's Edge - Wasn't convinced by the demo but I'm still intrigued.
  7. Star Wars: Force Unleashed - Another title that came out while we were in OT.
  8. Penny Arcade Episode II - No excuse other than I was distracted by other games.
  9. Condemned 2 - The first is one of my favorite 360 titles. They seemed to lose the plot though.
  10. Bully - I love Rockstar's work, but I never gave this one a chance.
Some Honorable Mentions include LittleBigPlanet and Metal Gear Solid IV, both of which I would have played if I owned a PS3. Also, I only scratched the surface of GTAIV (like six hours) so that might as well be on the list as well.

Update: Maybe it wasn't that bad that I missed out as some seem to have ended up being a little disappointing. Oh, and I started playing Force Unleashed this week. So far, it's not bad.
