Every year, when it draws to an end, people feel this urge to make lists about various things that happened in the past year. For us gamers, it would be great to come up with a list of the best and the worst games of 2007, don’t you think? Let’s start with the “bad” first. Do bear in mind that this list is based on opinion and should not be misconstrued as factual – each one is entitled to his own list. 😉
Wii Pool Party
According to IGN, it is merely a step below the Wii Play pool mini game. Here’s what else they had to say:
With the recent success of Wii, fans of Nintendo’s new motion-based system will simply have to get used to the fact that big sales bring huge libraries, and not everything is going to be worth the time or money. Pool Party is just one of those titles.
I like the Wii – who does not? Yet I have to agree with IGN on this one.
F24: Stealth Fighter
Take this from Gamespot:
• Not much variety in mission goals or enemy vehicles
• guns are worthless thanks to jumpy controls
• planes are tiny and 2D backgrounds are weak
• bland graphics make it tough to stay oriented.
On the bright side, it does remind one of classic combat video games, doesn’t it?
The Shield
IGN rates this game as “hide your money.” I am glad I never bought this game but I have heard enough about it so I don’t really care much.
