Categories...seriously?

I split my video games up into two categories. One; the games that are nice to look at with a plot line that stinks, but you'll play through it anyway for whatever reason. Two; the games that have terrible graphics (or a look or a feel that you don't like) but they're SO worth playing. There are definitely more categories then that. There's also the types of games that you like and don't like, and that has a big part of it. There's RPG's, shooters, racing, sports, etc etc...the list goes on.
((I'm mainly into RPG's (Role-Playing-Game), so I'll talk about RPG's most of the time.))

One game that fits my first category is a game called Bayonetta. I was SUPER excited for this game to come out. My fiance and I ran down to the video store the day it came out so we could rent it. I let him play it first, and as I was watching it I slowly just...didn't want to play it anymore. The graphics were great to look at, but the storyline was so positively corny that I didn't even want to bother playing because I don't think I would have been able to stand it. A game that fits into my second category is a game called Tales Of Vesperia. Now, at first, Jeremy was absolutely addicted to this game. He played it nonstop and after a while he shifted over to a different game. I didn't like the way the game played, but I decided to try it anyway because I wanted something to do. Needless to say, I fell in love with it! It's a great game and it's actually a lot of fun. :)

Before I go, I want to tell you guys about a game I rented about a week ago. It's actually a really bad game in the sense of language and violence...but it is so totally epic as a game! No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggles is definitely something I would recommend to anyone who can put up with crude language and lots of blood. The game itself will make you laugh yourself silly, but it is definitely worth playing.

That's all from me for now.
Play on!

  1. One of my favourite games of all time is Final Fantasy Tactics. while it might fit in to your latter category, (it is 2D,) I think it's an absolutely gorgeous game. It makes all the characters look really good on the scale they are drawn to.
