Ok, for all those who live in the UK, youwill probably know about the campaign to stop Simon Cowell on his quest ofgetting his s*** new singer at the Xmas no.1 spot. The challenger to do this is none other than RATM- Killing in the name. Now i've spread the word as much as i can, but i've come to you guys now to help us out. Even if your not a fan of RATM, you've got to give the campaign credit. So for 99p go onto play.com, itunes or amazon, and buy it before the week is out. 
In other news, im rather disappointed by the lack of games this festive season. I've resorted in playing Resi 5 on hard *sigh* ahh well there'll be a fare few games out in the coming months
Its amazing isnt it? I'd havebet my house in a bet that Link, or Snake,would have won the Greatest hero of all time place. But what has amazed me more, isn't even that Snake didn't even make it to the semi final. Its not even that Link lost the semi final. It isn't even the predictability that mario is in the final, its who Mario is up against.
Yes i talk about Gordon Freeman, the lead character in what is one of the greatest FPS games of all time. So he's in one of the finest games ever made, but is the actual character actually worth winning? In an answer for me its a no. The reason? Well he isn't a very good character, he doesn't say out, he doesn't have anything that gives him any special charisma, or makes him stand out from the other entrys. He is in a sence just you. Is that worth winning?
Its left me in awe actually,due to the fact that there is some really good characters that were in that line up. And half of them dont even make it out of the first, or second round. So its left me in two frame of minds.The first being that half of the people voting for this thing are 12 years of age, and are voting the oppositejust to piss people off: a perfect example of this is Halo's Master Chief. Im not a Halo freak so dont judge me, but anyone gamer would know he deserved better. He got his ass voted out in the first round by Characters Bub & Bob. Come on people, In a sane world he should have got off the first stepping stone. The second frame of mind is im just being paranoid and im just really suprised by the outcome, let me know your opinions either way.
On another note i've been playing Ultimate Alliance 2 since its release, and have gotta say im a little disappointed by it. Production has gone right up, but they've watered half the gameplay down. Im really enjoying Wolfenstein too, which is a suprise since i hate WWII games, but i loved the original so i had to give it a try. Shame the lead character is so generic lol.
There has been many survival horror games out there, many are clones copying off the true champs of the horror stage. Here i will show you but a few specialhorror games, that are close to my heart.And willhopefullymake you want to play themone day .
Top 5 Horror games.
5. Blood Siren (PS3)
Blood siren is apparently a remake of the first game (i think its different in my eyes). What made this one different to the first two games, is that they removed most of the annoying niggles. Pitting you against a load of Shibito (possesed, zombie like enemies) with nothing but a torch, depending on what character you are. You played as several characters, from a cop to a child. It is a great game that can be quite disturbing.
4. Doom 3
Doom 3, i think this was the first FPS horror shooter, and if it wasn't it was damn sure the scariest of its time. Even today graphics looks supurb. It was dark, gritty, and made you feel very claustrophobic. For me this is the real deal, F.E.A.R was abit of a clone to this game. So if you like F.E.A.R you'll love this.
3. Call of Chthulu
Based on the H.P lovecraft novel, Call of Cthulu was something very different indeed. While that image above makes it look action related, it actually wasn't. The first half of the game is mainly about sneaking round uncovering the mystery of a fishing town. You didnt even get a gun till about 45% threw the game. This also had one of the most terrifying scenes i've ever played, which had you running away unarmed from a load of imbred fisherman. While this game isn't for everyone.It does have its problems but,if you after something different, look no further.
2. Silent Hill 2 (PS2)
If you've read my top 20 games, you'll know i love this game, with good reason too. It had the most complex and cleaver story than any other SH game. Disturbing monsters, and a rather odd hero. It took the first game and made it a whole other beast. Well worth your time and money.
1. Resident Evil 2. (PSone)
Ahh, you knew it was coming. Resident evil 2 is to date (for me anyway) the best survival horror game. It was the best sequel, it had the best story, and you were getting two games in one, in a sence.Completing the game as either Leon or Claire, unlocked scenario B. Which was say your playing asLeon first time round, you'd play as Claire and complete the other side of the story.Resi 4 might have been the horror game to re energize the genre but this is where it started.
