They post these AFTER the STEAM sale has ended. I would have bought several of those best games on seeing their recommendations. Thanks guys.
Hard to believe some of the games on the 10 Worst Games list. I find Shadow of War, GR: Wildlands, Destiny 2 and ME: Andromeda to be fantastic games. Would have replaced some of the bull$hit titles on the 10 Best Games List with these...
I agree with the Shadow of War assssment on the worst list, and I loved Shadow of Mordor. To me it felt like more of the same and not as innovative as I had hoped.

More of the same of a great game makes a bad game?
It was marketed as being new and innovative, espcially in its siege mechanics and army assembly - these aspects were there but not as prominent as I thought they would be and they took a full act of the game to get to.

Not really - but the list is
Top 10 Most Disappointing and more of the same of a great game
could be disappointing, no?

Yes. Very good point. My bad for not reading carefully...I thought it was a Worst Games List.
Gus' points are totally valid and in that regard, it is fair to put SoW on the list. Same as the other games I mentioned! O:-)
Yeah SoW is very good - it would be incredible if it was the first game in the series. It's its own worst enemy!
Hugs all around?
don't make me post another picture of you hugging :bd:

The most disappointing sex I ever had was still pretty good.
Hmm...but compare that to the best.

Same.
I think the animated reference was an older article.
They've flip-flopped on this stuff for awhile. I just want more Urban-Dredd live action.
Also wouldn't mind if they started going into some of the more supernatural JD themes while they're at it. Maybe that will happen if it turns into a series.
Can't wait to watch this one!
Was just coming here to post this...
Glad to see none of the games on the Most Disappointing List that I liked were on this list too!
So far, I haven't heard of the first three.
out of 10, I actually only heard of the first one.
Holy Hell. I can't believe Life of Black Tiger is a PS4 game. :o
Damn. Those are some shitty games.
JH your avatar delights and nauseates me at the same time. Well done!
I didn't recognize a single one of those most hated games.

I think it's more an indication of which generation he's in than whose payroll he's on. Even I, who have never owned a gaming console nor played a console game have heard of
The Legend of Zelda and Mario.
The original Legend of Zelda was a mesmerizing game, for as long as it lasted. I didn't get into the later versions at all, but that one has good memories for me.
I own 5 gaming consoles and I have never owned or played Zelda or Mario.
Your Amstrad GX4000 and Apple Bandai Pippen don't count, mirth.

Honestly, I don't think that's fair to say about Angry Joe. He is merciless when it comes to developers or publishers and his record of content establishes that he is not a Nintendo gamer. In fact, if you watch his review of Zelda, he says that he didn't even own a Nintendo console, but that the game is SO GOOD, that one is actually worth getting. Most of his reviews are clearly for the PC, PS4 and Xbone.
On his recommendation, I moved my Wii U to a room that I spend more time in and bought the new Zelda title. I now have two games on the Wii U...yay!

Entirely possible - but my personal belief is that none of these [professional] YouTubers do anything for free - especially promote games.

Heh. I do own 5 consoles now - OG Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One, a Gamecube and I bought my son a Nintendo Switch for Christmas.
My son does have Mario World or some such for the Switch, but his mother got that for him.

You have me beat. I had the OG Xbox also, then an Xbox 360, but nothing since then. My son has a PS4 somewhere that he never plays, with Fallout 4 on it. I should try to get it and the TV in his room but I know that'll never fly.
^Agreed. I really admire the guy and his reviews. Reminds me of all of us.

The hand that feeds him is viewer base. His money comes from the ad revenue generated by his YT channel. I think he's very much aware of the risk he runs of alienating that base by "selling out".
^ Yeah, I can see that, too.
His whole "Corporate Commander" schtick is hilarious, though.
^that is good stuff
Everytime I hear "Corporate Commander" I think
^ HA!
I saw DS in person once, at E3 back in 2003 when some of us WG folks went to cover it. The WG guy I was walking around with at this time had a hate-on for him and went to their booth, where we found him posing for pictures in front of huge displays about his game. The look of loathing in that guy's eyes as he looked Derek up and down...LOL. I'd totally forgotten about that, and the flamewar follies.
Battlecruiser 3000AD was WAY ahead of its time...if Derek Smart wasn't his own worst enemy, he may have been successful with the franchise. Its a real shame.
I almost...ALMOST...bought Battlecruiser 3000 AD.

Battlecruiser 3000AD around here somewhere, although I don't know for sure whether I do or not. The collector in my made me buy the boxed version of
Battlecruiser Millennium despite Derek Smart having released it on the Internet for free.

It was buggy as hell - at least one version of it was.
But I agree - ahead of it's time in gameplay.

The concept maybe but the execution was abysmal. I tried and tried to like it but it was just so bad to play.

My experience was the same. Yes, I mean in concept. My recollection is that most of the systems didn't really work and didn't have much use anyway. But the idea...the idea of controlling a capital vessel stocked with Officers, Crew, Marines, Away Vessels, Weapons, etc. The vision was very forward thinking...
Has anyone played Universal Combat?

^Scotch optional
When the fishnets are on, the Scotch is not optional.
Just consider, fishnets and enough Scotch might make Universal Combat the second coming of the original Call of Duty.
