Big year in gaming

This year started out with a strong line up of games. Ranging from all genres. Majority if not all the games that released during the January to May period were pushed back from last years not so cluttered holiday line up. We all know the reason why a lot of the developers decided to delay their hard work. It was because of a little game called Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Yeah its a small game, did alright on the sales chart, made a couple of bucks. What? You haven't heard of it? Well no one blames you.
All jokes aside, Modern Warfare 2 did make a big impact last year and it brought in a lot of monies for Activision. When I say "a lot", I mean a ridiculous amount. Have you seen the numbers for the DLC Map Packs that they released, its fantastical.

As a result of all the games being pushed back, we got the best game releases I have seen in the period of January to May ever. Yes thats right EVER!

The major hitters were Mass Effect 2( which I finished and will write up a final verdict of really soon. Here's a sneak peak: Go play it, its fantastic.), Darksiders, Bioshock 2, Splinter Cell: Conviction, Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Final Fantasy 13, Alan Wake, Red Dead Redemption, Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands, Split/Second, Super Mario Galaxy 2 and many more to come.

I will give an insight of these games, most of which I have finished. So many games, so little time. Stay tuned.
