My parents are divorced, and I only talk to my father on the phone every now and then on the phone...

... but one day he asked me...

"Daughter? Why aren't all video games in first-person? It'd be so much easier to program.. I just don't get it."

Of course, I responded to this by shrieking and slamming the phone against the desk.

Now I can only dial numbers NOT containing the number '4'.

That day, I vowed to show my father what video games were about, as ridiculous as that sounds.

He just didn't seem to get it.... all videogames in first person..? I thought he got it, but nope!


My father has an extreme respect for computer graphics, and so I decided that I would find reviews of different kinds of video games on g4TV.com to show to him, and thus help him realize how sexy-cool and mmmmmmm stimulating video games are.

And so now I'm looking for good representations of different kinds of games, and I'm going to send them in an e-mail to my father via g4 review.




So, I'm going for a 3rd person RPG that's REALLY awesome... [FFXII? Elder Scrolls IV?]
A 3rd person RPG that REALLY sucks... [...Suggestions?]



I want a 1st person shooter that's really, really good [F.E.A.R.?]
A 1st person shooter that really sucks? [...Suggestions?]


AND I want a tactics game that's sexy cool. [RTS, preferrably... T_T Sorreh, Disgaea.]
And of course... a tactics game that sucks... sooooo bad... [One of the 10 billion WWII games, mehbeh?]




^_^; So basically what I'm asking..


Best and worst games in those genres?

The Legend of Zelda (Ocarina of time or the new one, Twilight Gummydrop Candycanes)

Spyro the Dragon, but that's more action RPG. Hmm.. This is a tough one. How about Enchanted Arms for the 360?

Halo 2 for Xbox, Rainbow Six Vegas for 360, COD2 or 3 for 360.

There are many. How abouttttt... Killzone for PS2? Or any of the Socom games for PS2. Theres a new one out I believe.

Rome: Total War, Medieval 2: Total War, Age of Empires III, all for PC.

Tough one. I'll have to think about this one for awhile.

Hope that helped.

Metroid Prime 1 or 2 is definately one of the best FPSs. The reviews were great also. Use that somewhere.

Yay for responses! <333 I'll look up all of these reviews today.

[[Everybody else should reply to this. > If you don't respond to this, you're obviously UNCOOL in Spades' book of dreams.]]

So, you'll even consider me uncool if I don't reply to this topic?

Ya', Hale.


NOBODY is exempt from the wave of uncoolness that will sweep the collective souls of everyone who hasn't replied to this.... WITH their ideas for best/worst videogames in my chosen genres.

Well just out of sheer stubborness, and because I want to see if the uncoolness will affect me at all, I refuse to reply.

.... I am now sad. I pity you and all of the missed opportunities you'll face in the karma machine.

"Oh, wow. Instead of winning the lottery, I broke my leg. Wish I had better karma. Should've made Spades happy that one time."

... Anyone else?
