Stalin vs. Martians

Star Wars the Clone Wars: Republic Heroes

Dead Space Extraction

The Godfather II

Star Trek: D.A.C.

The Conduit

Chris Redfield (Resident Evil 5)

[alexrdias]

Republic Heroes? And why would they use gameplay of a portable console? To make it look bad?

Sorry Gamespot, you've just lost more credibility...

[JDiddly3]

that category about performance enhancing drugs is so stupid..

[sdcazares1980]

I know that this is old news, but Batman? Really? Have any of you ever read the comics?

[dstebbin]

Hasn't Hulk Hogan ALREADY failed a performance-enhancing drug test?

[jackassunit22]

im sorry but the conduit has awsome box art, real classic and badass feel

[maxen1416]

i see why X-blades was nominated to be one of the worst box art, they think its all about sexy kick-ass chicks.. their website is a proof...

[n0ske1]

MY NAMES IVAN I LIKE U!

[JASONMOORE87]

This was not the well done! in all honesty

[XxAdTrFrEaKiNrOcKsXx]

i played a boy and his blob, dead space extraction and ninja blade; and yes they are really good games

[coolboy273]

lol Rogue Warrior sucked dick!

It's terrible!

[Stoffinator2008]

"Bad Games That Everyone Played"

Hate to tell you, I didn't play any of them. lol

[VideoGamePwners]

lol for the last one u should of had alex mercer from prototype

[TheDynastking]

That last award name had me rolling

[myBacau]

at least improved sequel you forgot left for dead 2

[VideoGamePwners]

wat the hek left 4 dead 2 was better than the first one in everything except online

[semisanity]

wtf? GTA Chinatown Wars for DS or Demon's Souls are the best games no one played.

[dave1d3]

godfather 2 , chronicles of riddick, Fear 2??? these are great games wth

[kanzkool]

Hmmm...lemme see...

Gamespot gave the "Flat Out Worst Game" award to an XBOX exclusive and the "Game of the Year" award to a PS3 exclusive.

How very interesting ?!?!

[sexyzeeboy]

Actually what is more interesting is that there are actually 3 ps3 exclusives nominated for best game(kz2, uncharted2 and demon souls) What is even more interesting is there were still two ps3 exclusives that just fell below the nomination(infamous and resistance2) That my friend says that the ps3 is stepping up their game and at an alarming rate!

[kthy0056]

@sexyzeeboy

Or that Gamespot is paid by Sony to suck their big cock by awarding PS3 games.

[sexyzeeboy]

Come on man, gamespot isn't doing that, okay tell me one award that was wrongfully given. Ps3 was voted system of the year by IGN, spike and G4, thats just a little proof

[sexyzeeboy]

Are u a fanboy?

[kthy0056]

@sexyzeeboy

Not really, I own an Wii, Xbox 360 and a PS3 and multiple games for all of them. I simply state how I don't trust Gamespots word on anything about video games after they fired the guy ranting about Kane&Lynch.

[sexyzeeboy]

Well, I dont even know what Kane and lynch is but I will check it out. I also agree with you about gamespot over doing it. But whatever happen, I still believe the ps3 beat 360 for 2009 by a long shot. Are you on psn? I don't think I will be playing that game army of two. It looks pathetic, kind of. Even the demo has a ridiculous story

[oOm3gaxx]

@kthy0056 have u played the games then u would understand

[kthy0056]

I played the games and it has nothing to do with PS3 being a better console. It's all about exclusivity and cock throbbing. Xbox had great games too regardless of what Gayspot says.

[fenix611]

no its not. its a coincidence it happens it fact.

[Bajlum13]

OMG! That game was also realeased on the PC! It has nothing to do with Sony paying them.

[hazeces]

Wait so Chris Ragfield from RE5 takes Steroids ? WOW that's a shame.

[ONdorch]

why is dragon age origins a bad advertising game?

[porraloka08]

go fuck...The Godfather 2 and Fear 2 are good games _)_

[rockstarnetonline]

please tell me,how does a mind of a gamespot official works.I mean its totally weird.

For example:they gave away the award of worst box art To conduit.I mean i did not feel it was bad.

[texas224]

Fear 2 was not disappointing. Jeez I wonder how gamespot rate their games.

[Arieller911]

agree

Fear 2 was GREAT i dont know why it's in the list at all

[popomartin2]

Well i know:

1. To easy.

2. Only 1 or 2 horror moments.

3. A realy dissapointing final *battle*.

4. Nothing special.

BTW this is MY oppinion!

[ruesius]

Character most likely to fail a performance enhancing drug test

[shanthegeek]

Nice use of the stig sequence.. srsly.. you should pay topgear for that..

[bakin88k]

what the fuck??? Fear 2 was a great game!!!

[TheXboxReviewer]

i disagree, FEAR 1 was bad on its own, the expansions were terrible and the sequel was ok, But by no means a good game. You should try Stalker: Clear Sky, or Shadow of Chernobyl

[mjxbox]

fear 2 really i thought it was a great game

[BloodfelX]

if Chris Redfield had an arm wrestel with...a chainsaw. His head and hand would get cut off but at least he won :D I thought the end was a nice change XD

[sereno093088]

Redfield... They're some who say that he had the name of his bisects changed to doctor paiton and doctor cobra :-D heheheh

[ihatestartrek92]

REZ HD is the worst game in human history , you can download the trial version at xbox live marketplace and believe me, you can't come with any worse.

[XxBK201xX]

yeah man. Chris Redfield can also punch a boulder O_O

[archreaper990]

i don't see what's so bad abt 'The Conduit''s box art. The title bugs me more.

[mangodealer]

stalin vs. martians was pretty bad, but E.T. The Extra Terrestrial was the worst game of ALL TAAIIMMEEE!!!!

[Zangado]

FEAR 2????????????wronggggggggggggg­gggggggggggg

[MataNoobTW]

The Resident Evil 5 gameplay sucks

[Numenorean921]

lolwut? How does it suck?

[oz2973]

star wars rep heros was really bad

[fatbotv2007]

How could Chris Redfeild be the most likely to fail a performance enhancing drug test? They guy is disabled, he can't even move while he shoots. There has to be something wrong with him.

[BillB808]

FEAR 2 is brilliant!!

[ToastyMcMuff]

FEAR 2 was not disapointing at all, wtf?

[thepineapple1]

in RE5 why does Chris even bother holding a gun?he could just tear every single zombie in half with his hands.

[Vleesball]

rofl i actualy thought conduit box art was best one this year :p

...and its suppose to look 90s.. cause they wanted to give the game a n64 kinda feel..which they succeded in ..since the game is utter shit :D ..waste of nice graphics..

...anyone here knows wtf is going on with high voltage ???

whats up with that grinder game O_o ???

lul at my epic typos.

[WeeCammy1]

the drug one was a bit random lol

[DavyDevil666]

worst game everyone played : Halo ODST

[bradby0185]

@DavyDevil666 ....naw u mean MW2

[Magma541]

@bradby0185

MW2 is best game everyone played.

[Juniorskatesemerica]

Nope

[vicboy129]

nah, it was just more of the same

[Magma541]

who cares if its the same...still the best multiplayer game around.

[MeachamProductions]

Nah, that goes to Uncharted 2 with MW2 right behind it.

[vicboy129]

Uncharted I agree with, but MW2 is just the old game packaged with a new HUD, perks, a horrible story, and new maps.

Im not saying its bad, cuz it isnt, it rocks, but it doesnt do anything new

[Magma541]

no i dont think MW2 is better then Uncharted 2. i just mean the multiplayer only.

[bradby0185]

@Magma541 being that u got 3 thumbs down i think im not the only one to disagree with u....online not even fun on MW2 with lag and fucking campers....its a noobs FPS...give me uncharted 2 online or even MGS4 online....resistance 2 or KZ2...and they all have GREAT campaigns that last more then 5 minutes with a story that makes sense

[TheXboxReviewer]

Dude in a game where most guns can kill in 2 shots campers are gonna be there, Also there is lag in every game so thats not really an issue with the game as much as people's connections, also even though it's campaign was pretty short I really liked it because it didn't drag its feet like GOW 2 and such.

[Magma541]

@bradby0185

No its all just a matter of opinion and since u got 3 thumbs down i dont think anyone else agrees that those games have better multiplayer.

[bradby0185]

@Magma541i havethumb down and its probably from u

[Magma541]

no it was not me

[Intresca]

You certainly have one now.

[bradby0185]

@Intresca naw i dont....but u do

[Intresca]

Now you have two!

[bradby0185]

@Intresca lol your a FAG

[Intresca]

Awesome!

[IronHedgehog1]

correction: worst game everyone played: modern warfare 2

[LasTCursE69]

most disapointing game and FEAR 2 is nominated ? you crazy the game was freaking awesome xD

[HeeeyItsMachitu]

I think they said just the expansion pack

[DjCassly]

cool games

[lovingyousomuch15]

why the hell would they choose godfather2 thats the greatest among the choices,

[punkrockid4]

i rather like godfather 2 but it will be beaten out by mafia 2

[HeeeyItsMachitu]

odst should have been least improved sequal

[whitsnake8]

dude odst is more of an expansion..... with a costly price, but people still bought it.

[HeeeyItsMachitu]

hardly

it wasn't released in the marketplace, rather in stores for the full game price

that's such bullshit

I think that was Microsoft's decision though.

[pl225]

fail a perdormance enhancing drug test!

[Reconite11]

WTF? The Conduit's box art is fine.

All of the box arts in that category were fine.

[101cookies101]

fear 2 was good i have the game it scared me ones so far im still not done but anywayz worst sequel should have been halo 3 odst i mean i luv halo but rlly it was amazingly short story firfight wasn't all dat good

[leonard109]

How was Godfather 2 worst sequel it was better than all that was listed

[drusio210071]

It was worse because it was so short they didnt even gave you the full cities. like in the fist godfather.

[WorthyEpicFail]

fear 2 was amzing

[pooperscooper1992]

this sounds more like a "worst of 2009" type of thing not a "best of 2009"

[superfakerbros]

No Halo 3:ODST for least improved sequel?!It is the least improved sequel I've ever played as is every Halo game.

[HeeeyItsMachitu]

IKR

[superfakerbros]

Looks like people agree with me!

[RhansleyWii]

I Still Say There Box Art Category Shouldn't even exist heck all five Box Art which are called "Worst Box Art of 2009" looks great ok maybe that x blades i can see where they where going with it but still it isn't bad sexist yes but not bad.

[SHADALOO3000]

they forgot Zangief for the drugs one

[INSERTNAM3HERE]

i wasnt dissapointed with fear 2 i thought it was ok. but Guitar Hero 5 had the WORST box art of all time. it was just the title, and thats it. you cant even call that box art.

[spiderman00193]

The Conduit's box art compared to the guitar hero 5 was a masterpiece ! -_-

[spiderman00193]

I'ma get Dead Space Extraction ^_^ I need a game to use my light gun with.

[drew1355555]

tony?

hawk?

ride?

not most disappointing?

[AwesomeCoasters]

Yeah! Fear 2, even though it was an impressive, entirely respectable title, was disappointing, but Tony Hawk ride... the spoiled use of an intriguing, innovative peripheral that caught everŷone's attentions and costs a truckload! Everything is broken in the game! Ads are everywhere!

[GOFLOinc]

I think it's because most people didn't expect Tony Hawk Ride to good. You can't be disappointed in a game you weren't looking forword to.

[ThisIsRandal]

I still don't get why "The Conduit" had the worst box art, I don't see anything wrong with it.

[JPProductionsStudio]

Fear 2 dissapointing? wtf

[mrceven11]

ahaha worst game everyone played, nice award.

[GodLikeSkillz89]

Halo ODST should of got nominated and win least improved sequel.

[TheluffyGOMUNO]

nope my friend ;)

[GodLikeSkillz89]

ODST is pretty much the same damn thing as Halo 3, so it should of got nominated and win least improved sequel.

[GrayHam091795]

In the Stalin vs. Martians website, you will find a typo:

"The main ideology BEHIN Stalin vs. Martians is to have some fun."

Merry Christmas (:

[drusio210071]

dragon age uses adds? i never seen one.

[Doyledeth]

@drusio210071 I thought the same exact thing!

[xSouIReaper]

I actually liked MLB 2K9 o.O

[aidenmccloskey]

guitar hero 5 deserved worst boxart. it was so plain and bland.

[popomaniac1]

not as bad as halo

[Doyledeth]

@aidenmccloskey Totally agreeable

[aidenmccloskey]

least improved? well i like the Godfather part I game a lot, so i won't be dissapointed by it.

as for the fact that Godfather part II done better than the first film, just doesnt seem right. the godfather part I was the main story, it was fantastic. my favorite by far.

[hottekerstbabe]

cryostatis? no one played? hm. weird. seriuosly, that game was cool

[orionpk]

just finished downloading and playing cryotasis the game is amazing

[cowlikereflexes]

the conduit is a good box art and best wii game EVER

[ShizzleTech]

@cowlikereflexes

You didn't play much wii then. There are so much better games out there then The conduit.

[cowlikereflexes]

the conduit was E3's best game and i find it better then world at war and reflex

[nansarama]

whaaaaat fear 2 is friggin awsome

[thosedaysinpunk]

X blade's box is the best. lol

[Bandfred]

Shame about Dead Space: Extraction. I am a big fan of the first one.

[TheonlyNiyrulegend]

No on-rails game is a good game! Sorry Dead Space Extraction, but you picked the wrong kind of game to be imo

[Claverleykid1]

They did Top gear's Stig intro for chris redfield. HA lols

[HellzIceWolf]

I thought the Guitar Hero 5 box art was terrible. Previous GH art designs show crazy looking guitarists and show a small mood of saying "Hey, this is Guitar Hero!" The design for 5 shows the name Guitar Hero 5 with the number of songs and the companies name and thats it; no cool characters or anything.

[GamerX89X]

yea, GH5's box art looked like a beta test boxart. And thats exactly what I thought it was too!

[uum6]

Batman is by far the most likely to fail a performance enhancing drug test >.>

[timewarptrio11]

yes

[triFeral]

Project Origin wasn't THAT bad, the multiplayer sucked dick though.

[jazzer741]

the campagin wasnt even scary it was boring a dull and repetitive

[Starbuckfsd]

I'm SO GLAD that train wreck GI Joe was in there....

[l00neyxCuz]

no one played G I JOe haha and MLB 2k9 and Godfather 2 wasnt bad at all!

[GamerX89X]

okay, Fear 2 wasn't dissappointing at all. Same as The Chronicles Of Riddick Dark Athena.

[Notmyday2009]

They didnt say it was bad they just said that it could have being much better and different that the last game of that series.

[GamerX89X]

yea, your right.

[nickmax123]

gamespot fails, they said ultimate alliance was best use of creative license, and its the worst??

[TheonlyNiyrulegend]

yeah I kno right!

[PullusPardus]

no the worst ones are the PS2 and Wii versions, the good ones are the 360 and PS3 version.

the PS2 and Wii versions are really really really crap.

[gamespot]

MUA2 for the Wii was nominated for Worst Use. MUA2 for the 360/PS3 was nominated for Best Use. They were very different games. (Review scores of 4.5 vs 7.5)

[popomaniac1]

hey yo change the voice dude

he sucks

[dino88cro]

@gamespot why the hell would fear 2 be a dissapointing game? just tell me that

[GodLikeSkillz89]

@dino88cro

I haven't played Fear 2, but I don't know why gamespot would say its disappointing, because it looks like a fun game.

[GOFLOinc]

They didn't say the game was bas or wasn't fun, it's just when compared to the orginal Fear, it just isn't as good.

[fishonegg]

because the first one was a masterpiece

[FrozenSprite7]

lol I didnt play any of the games nominated for "Worst game everyone played"

[ashfury]

I almost forgot about Ninja Blade

[samkim123]

why is quality kind of bad?

[TheDewror]

@samkim123 ..............................­..guess, just guess why the quality is bad the first minutes the video gets uploaded to youtube? c'mon retards.

[samkim123]

Fuck U, i did not know that, unlike u i do not spend all my time online watching youtube videos, moron

[TheOked13]

It's just been uploaded but in the official webpage of Gamespot it has a much better quality.

[phoenixtilidie]

It's probably only been live for a few minutes. Takes a while to process.

[Starbuckfsd]

@samkim123 it's cause Youtube takes a little while to process it...takes about 10 minutes or so....

[H4NDC4NN0N]

lmao nice way to end the video with that award

[SpaceObake]

MADDEN 10 HAS SO MANY ADS ITS ANNOYING

[Swood44]

mlb 2k9 sucks dick, the show is where its at

[loolool222]

lol, performance enhancing drugs =)

That made my day

[mariosmashfann]

third comment yeah

[Kaim82]

HD?
