Top 5 Video Games of 2010


If you feel interested in video gaming, you will like to know what are the most popular video games of the year that goes away. Here they are:
•    Dead Rising 2. Zombies are everywhere – in movies and in video games. And their popularity still grows up. “Dead Rising 2” resembles much the series’ first version. Fight off wave after wave of zombies with any tools you can get your hand on.

•    Final Fantasy IV. The new version of the famous series came out for the PlayStation 3 and PC and hinted an Xbox 360 version too. The game’s story follows Cecil, a dark knight, as he tries to prevent the sorcerer Golbez from seizing powerful crystals and destroying the world. He is joined on this quest by a frequently changing group of allies, several of whom die, become injured, or become affected by an unfortunate occurrence.

•    God of War III. It is actually the fifth “God of War” game, counting two versions that were made for the PSP, Sony’s portable gaming system. The plot is a bit labyrinthian to newcomers of the series, but revolves around Kratos, a Spartan warrior who displaced Ares as the Greek god of war, only to be cast down from Olympus by Zeus and the other gods.

•    Super Mario Galaxy 2. Sequels are not typically Nintendo’s style, but the original “Super Mario Galaxy” on the Wii was so well received that it decided to make an exception here. This time, though, Mario’s dinosaur buddy Yoshi will be along for the ride.

•    Split/Second. Racing games were plentiful at E3 this year, but this action-racer from Disney seemed to gather the most interest from show goers. With ridiculously fast cars and cinematic explosions, the game was, quite simply, fun. Add in the ability to change the track as you blow things up along the way and it sounds like a great way to get rid of your road rage.

•    Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood. This sequel now features a multiplayer element so enjoy your favorite adventures with your friends.

•    Castelvania: Lords of Shadows. The game is expected to be extremely competitive on a flooded market of third person action video games. The Lords of Shadows reboot however looks well and truly up to the task of combing God of War non-stop action with Darksiders epic scope.

•    Star Wars: The Old Republic. That is the game fans have been dreaming of. The quality of the gameplay can match this video then gamers are in for a treat.

•    The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. The new game is no less than stunning. Initial impressions of the new action puzzler have overcome all expectations.

•    Warhammer 40,000: Dark Millenium Online. Games Workshop have high hopes for Dark Millennium Online. Though the fantasy action does not differentiate a lot from the previous version, it is expected to provide a different offering.

•    Killzone 3. Taking into account that Killzone and Killzone 2 have been a great success, there is nothing to impede the third version to follow the tendency. The Helghast soldiers appear to have been transported to Hoth, and have been upgraded with a Kick Ass style jetpack with miniguns.

•    Spider Man: Shattered Dimensions. The largest opportunity of the new game in comparison with earlier ones is that it will allow players to jump, swing and web-sling their way through four alternate universes, each with a different incarnation of Spider-man.
