Friday Fun: Year of the sequel game releases

Thanksgiving is coming up which means the famous Black Friday will follow. Some of you might have gaming consoles or know somebody with them but don’t know what games to get. This blog post is here to help you make the right choice this fall. 2009 happens to be a hot year for video game sequels so here is an overview of the really good ones.

The first game which came out last week is called   Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. This has been the most highly anticipated game since the original came out in 2007. The online game play is the games major features. Girls if you have boyfriends you need to get them this game immediately if they haven’t bought it already. This game is available for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.

Another game that is on multiply platforms is DJ Hero. The makers of Guitar Hero are bringing the DJ element into people’s home. Players well be available to play DJ and spin over 100 tracks from Jay-Z to the Foo-Fighters. This should provide hours of fun and will make you the life of the party. You might even be able to get gigs on the side too.

This next game is probably one of the best games ever made!!!  Unchared 2: Among Thieves puts you as Nathan Drake, (imagine Indiana Jones, James Bond, and Jason Bourne all wrapped into one person) as a treasure hunter trying to figure out the mysteries of a Marco Polo voyage. The game play in this game is so ahead of its time that this title might single handily save the PS3 console. This game will make an avid 360 user want to buy a PS3 console.

The last game is for the Wii lovers who are looking for a more mature game on the console. No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle follows the unlikely hero Travis in his quest to become the top hitman in fictional Santa Destroy, California. In this game you will be able to wield a beam two   katanas (think Star Wars light saber) with the Wii controller. This has a January 2010 release.

If you haven’t played the originals   to these sequels   I encourage to go play them because they are equally fun. No you don’t have to play the original titles to understand and enjoy the sequels. Other honorable mentions are Assassins Creed 2, and Mass Effect 2.
