Borderlands was definitely 2009. It was all over before Christmas 2009.

That other Zombie killing game was 'Killing Floor'. Great game, would love to give it another go some time.

thanks captain!

[Hubris]

Sho I really liked Prototype hey... no replay value but man I was a morph junkie for like 2 months. Also Civ V?

[J_Th4ng]

Prototype was mid 2009 (I know this because I was playing inFamous at the time). Civ 5 is a good nomination though...

[s3xy_j0nny]

Ja, n00bris, maybe you should add your favourite to the list of nominations. Just an idea...

[Megageth]

Give it up j0nny, they are from another place. I will read through the thread and gather all the shrapnel when its time for a vote.

[NoMaD]

hahaha n00bris!

WoW: Cataclysm (yes.. read it and weep)
COD: Black Ops (even if for the SP)

Also, if I HAD to buy a console... yes i know, relax... Would it be a SexBox or a PS3?

[J_Th4ng]

Tough question that, Phats. The answer depends on what you're looking for.

XBOX has a bigger catalogue of games, and XBOX live is the better MP system. Has Kinect for motion control

PS3 has BluRay support and (IMO) better exclusives. Has Move for mothion control which is cheaper and I believe will be better than Kinect.

IMO get a 360 if you want MP capabilities, or a PS3 if you want a general purpose media and gaming device.

[Stu]

I'd go with the SexBox, my mate has all three consoles PS3, Xd00s and Wii and he spends the majority of his time playing on the Box.

Not to mention Live and the added value services. Xbox is a great by for the casual and hardcore gamer. This is my personal opinion with respect to this in any case.

[J_Th4ng]

One advantage of the XBOX is that it's good for people who like to pirate games. The PS3 is extremely difficult to pirate and should only be considered if you're happy to pay for all of your games.

Now we have derailed this thread properly, I'm sure that j0nny won't be amused at all...

[J_Th4ng]

Seems we don't need to vote for best game, Yahtzee has already done it for us...
