Brad's Top 10 Games of the 2000's

10. Super Smash Brothers Brawl (2008)- Finally a game that can decide the age old debate, can Solid Snake kick Samus Aran's ass? oh, it also had Sonic and Mario and a bunch of other nintendo characters.

9. Counter Strike (2000)- Like to hack? Ever get pissed off so bad you want to throw your monitor out of a 5th story window? Ever wonder where the word "noob" was practically invented? Look no further. A multiplayer Half-Life mod, this game was the granddaddy to the modern FPS experience.

8. Rockband (2007)- Harmonix devoleped the perfect combination of casual and party game, with a pre-installed fan base the game allows for everyone to feel like a musician. Four players can play Bass, Guitar, Drums and Sing, the game became such a selling point Conan O'brien used the game as a segment during the 2007 writers strike.

7. Marvel vs. Capcom 2 (2000)- Before Marvel split away from Capcom the company responsible for the Street Fighter franchise developed several solid fighters featuring the marvel lineup, I was super happy when this came to Xbox Live Arcade in 2009. Featuring 56 fighters and the ability to make teams of three create some incredible depth and intricate strategy, well, for a fighting game anyway.

6. World of Warcraft (2004)- 11.5 millions subscribers. The recently announced cataclysm expansion is set to cause huge changes to the game with entire zones being changed for good.

5. Grand Theft Auto IV (2008)- Rockstar perfected the open world game with this one. Grand Theft Auto has always been a hot selling title, This one coupled with the DLC that has come out since the release has given fans of the series plenty to be happy about.

4. Uncharted 2 (2009)- The Game plays like a movie, but that's not a bad thing cause it's a fucking awesome movie. The game itself has some of the most beautiful visuals ever in a game and it's no wonder why this title has been named GOTY 2009 by several sources.

3. Halo 3 (2007)- Hard to believe a game that's almost three years old would still be one of the most played online games. Bungie has released a standalone "expansion" as well as four map packs since the game's release, while the single player may be lagging it's the multiplayer that has given gamers a reason to keep going back to Master Chief.

2. Left 4 Dead (2008)- Having never been a huge fan of the Resident Evil Series but a huge zombie fan was a bit of a problem most of my life. Which is why I am eternally grateful to Valve for making this game, This game requires some intense 4 player team work to survive wave after wave of zombies.

1. Fallout 3 (2008)- I can't count how many nuclear wasteland fantasies I've had where I'm humanity's last hope. This game just gave me the framework to act them out. The game has a framework for a story, but the game is pretty much left up to you. Bethesda released plenty of DLC for the game extending the already super long game tenfold adding atleast another 15 hours of gameplay.

Ewoks v. Tim Tebow's Knees.....WHO YA GOT??????

I've been playing C&C: Red Alert 3 and I've noticed that I'm only playing it for the cut scenes, and for a video game, the cut scenes have some high profile people, Jenny McCarthy, Tim Curry, George Takei, Gemma Atkinson, J. K. Simmons, Jonathan Price, Kelly Hu, Gina Carano, Ivana Miličević, Randy Coture, and Peter Stormare. Some of those names you're bound to reckognize. Also Left 4 Dead I'm playing nonstop (I'm playing it as I type this with my penis) 4 Player co-op over live is awesome, the game's hit detection could be tweaked a little better though. being thrown out of a building and nearly dying by a huge zombie was one of the coolest things I've ever experienced in a video game.

The shittiest shit that ever shit

A while ago I was presented with a paper to write for one of my classes, the specifics aren't needed, but it did include Jesus, Call of Duty 4, and Guitar Hero 3. In the story Judas proceeds to Team Kill Jesus in CoD4 to which jesus proclaims "What the fuck judas?". Later he plays Dragonforce- Through Fire and Flames on Guitar Hero 3. (Ironic I Know.) He Fails the song on expert and says "Suck My Taint" before smiting said Guitar Hero Controler. And with those bits in the story the class laughed, except for a few people, two of whom came up to me, the first one was dissapointed that I had been taken over by the evangelicals and wrote a piece on jesus, as if I had become some bible thumping nutjob. The second approached me clearly pissed that I had made fun of jesus, southern female's who happen to be baptists are amongst the most militant human beings one may even encounter. They have the bitch factor on a scale of 1 to 10 adbout 14. Jesus himself is afraid of them. I think it speaks volumes when you're able to piss off people who both adore jesus, and despise him.

do onto others

I hate poorly made electronics

I'm typing this from my apartment complex's computer lab cause my laptop has pretty much died, im not pulling the plug yet, but I am getting a new one tomorrow, a Macbook, so that toshiba sattelite would be my fugly wife that im trading in for Olivia Munn, so, there's that. Alabama had other unforseen consequences, My PSP broke, a PSP that I've had for nearly four years. all things considered, after they remodeled the psp to allow the new ones to use skype, i should have upgraded then, but the sentimental value was there and i didnt wanna replace it, now it has a cracked screen ro fuck that piece of overpriced plastic. I bought the Ratchet and Clank bundle, I remember on my PS2 in the 9th grade I thought Ratchet and Clank was awesome, not GTA3 Awesome Because you could run over hookers and kill hobos in that game. It also came with National Treasure 2 on UMD, I'd like to think sony had some sort of office pool going on at the time with what shitty movie we can get rid of this time (my first psp came with spider-man 2, which in retrospect, spider-man only had one good movie, and those were the italian spiderman movies on youtube) and a voucher for echochrome, which is a pretty awesome perspective baised puzzle game.
