FanPoll'08: Action Adventure

by Xav de Matos { Dec 26th 2008 at 6:30PM }

After compiling what we thought were the five best action adventure titles of year, we realized how violent they are. Dismember limbs in Ninja Gaiden II, knock insane people senseless in Condemned 2: Bloodshot and bounce around a whimsical world in Prince of Persia. Oh, okay. Well maybe not all of it is too violent. Violent or not, these were the best of the best in 2008. Here are the nominees for Best Action Adventure Game in 2008.

Read more about the five nominees:
Condemned 2: Bloodshot
Grand Theft Auto IV
Ninja Gaiden II
Prince of Persia
Saints Row 2

Voting closes at 12:01am on December 30, 2008. Results will be revealed on December 30, 2008.

I haven't played pop yet, but I know games well enough to know gta is the clear cut winner here. I had mixed feelings about it leaning towards realism versus San andreas' true sandbox style, in the end it did not disappoint.

Saints row 2. Much more fun than gta4.

Seriously? I wish you had an option for 'none of these'... I would vote for Tomb Raider: Underworld if it were on the list. I'm aware it wouldn't win but out of this list I think it deserves more mention than Condemned or Saints Row 2.

Prince of Persia. Playing right now, so I am not done with it yet but its a lot of fun. The movement is just beautiful. As your wall running, jumping, hopping, swinging...just wow. And the single opponent combat really came out well. Makes every encounter feel meaningful and rewarding when you finish it.
