One of my most hype moments was the first fight against Baldur. I thought he was a skinny guy that was going to get wrecked easily then WHAM! He does some super saiyan stuff and knocks Kratos over his home. That’s the kind of stuff that puts someone on the edge of their seat.
Then there’s the finale of RDR2, going through those mountains. The music, John standing alone, and wearing Arthur’s hat on the way. I don’t think I was ever more happy to see a villain killed, I know some people had shot him in the chest or the balls, but I shot him in the face. That has to be my favorite moment of 2018.
Then there’s the assault on Braithwaite Manor, it felt like I was watching a finale to an abc series.
Last but not least, all of Goldpaw in Ni No Kuni 2.
@Hapuc I never hyped up the rumors, moron. I already explained why I won’t have time to sit down and play a 100 hour JRPG all the time and what do you mean I don’t know how to play a JRPG? I’ve been playing them for years, you just keep making yourself look stupid. I have all systems so I don’t need to port beg and I don’t miss out on anything. So you’ll be the one sending threats over exclusivity while I enjoy everything.
@PSfan4Life22 That’s among critics. I’m talking about users and their opinions hold more weight than those of (paid) critics. I’m not saying they were paid for God of War, but some can be paid off.
@Jaz007 I’m on winter break and other than that I’m always out. I started my second playthrough in January and just completed the fourth Palace yesterday.
@Octane I have SoTC and it’s great indeed, I just don’t think remakes (especially ones that have been remade twice) or games that require you to purchase highly priced accessories should be on lists. That’s just me though
@gbanas92 I know the devs put hard work into it, which is why I believe God of War deserved best game direction for taking its franchise somewhere else. But I fail to see how this game is revolutionary or a bar raiser when everything in the game has been done before. God of War isn’t a bad game, but I’ve played better. Barely cracks my top 5 of the year.
@dark_knightmare2 A lot of people don’t have the attention span for a game like RDR2 and they weren’t able to finish the game. Everyone I know who finished the game said it has the best story.
@Deljo It’s called NintendoLife, so I hope you weren’t surprised. Any gaming site aimed at a specific brand is biased, that’s why you shouldn’t listen to them for reviews either.
@Hapuc Argued for days? Do you have the right person? And people can own more than a PlayStation. I only see myself buying P5R is if it comes out on Switch because I’m busy and can’t sit on my couch eating pizza for hours like a lot of you children. You’re more than welcome to look at my PSN: Sage_Roy I’ve already beaten the game and I’m playing it again for the platinum trophy. Get over yourself.
Yeah...I’m starting to think this site is PlayStation biased. Nearly everywhere else I go I see people say Red Dead Redemption 2 had the better story. God of War is fun to play for the gameplay, but the story itself wasn’t very memorable and was actually dull. I think Arthur Morgan is a way better character.
I dunno if I’ll buy this. I’m already 57% through platinuming Persona 5, but I wouldn’t get this game unless it came out for Switch. That’s the only way I can see myself buying an updated version.
@playstation1995 The Witcher 3 Skyrim Persona 5 Dragon Quest VIII, IX, XI Paper Mario TTYD Shadow of the Colossus Red Dead Redemption 2 The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Left 4 Dead 2 Spider-Man Monster Hunter World Titanfall 2 All Smash games Ratchet & Clank Xenoblade Chronicles 2
I’m expecting you to list a lot of Nintendo games since that’s what so-called old school gamers love quoting.
Easily one of the best games of the year. But gamers have short attention spans and feel like they have to kill something every five minutes, so of course this is overlooked.
@Ralizah idk man...Persona Q2 being on 3DS, SMT 5 coming to Switch, Joker being in Smash...if Persona 5 R ends up on Switch I wouldn’t be surprised. A lot of devs are getting hip to the Switch, even Bayonetta is now a Switch exclusive, but we’ll see
@kyleforrester87 it’s not that I didn’t like it. When it won best game direction I was pleased because it definitely deserved it, but I’ve played many action-adventure games & GoW wasn’t what everyone made it out to be. All I’m saying on here is that I’m not surprised a PS exclusive won on a PlayStation site, but people are making it like I don’t agree.
@GKO900 I never said it’s bias, so why are you getting so defensive? the whole site is PlayStation based so it shouldn’t surprise anyone that a PS exclusive wins. GoW wasn’t amazing to me.
@AyanamiReign And the Witcher 3 isn’t clunky? I can’t tell you how many times I’ve tried to run away from a fight & I end up rolling instead, then I get killed. Also, TW3 is a fantasy RPG where RDR2 is a western so there isn’t much combat to be expected outside of shooting.
@pimpjuice I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted. First person makes me dizzy & ruins the experience, CDPR should be considerate and think about their fans.

@Kindaichi Which brings the question of why you’re visiting an article about s game you didn’t like as much as anyone else.

Re: Persona 5 R Announced for PS4, More Details Coming in 2019
@GKO900 Anyone could say the same to PS4 owners who want to play Shin Megami Tensei 5.

Re: Game of the Year 2018: #3 - Marvel's Spider-Man
Spider-Man is more fun than God of War.
Re: Game of the Year 2018: Best Story

@Spectra I mean...Nintendo already has most of ATLUS’s games, including Shin Megami Tensei.
Re: Persona 5 R Announced for PS4, More Details Coming in 2019
@playstation1995 So you just proved you’re an idiot.
Re: Game of the Year 2018: Graham's Personal Picks
God of War at the top is fine, but other than that this is a very weak list.
Re: Site News: God of War Wins the Push Square Forum's Game of the Year
@playstation1995
The Witcher 3
Skyrim
Persona 5
Dragon Quest VIII, IX, XI
Paper Mario TTYD
Shadow of the Colossus
Red Dead Redemption 2
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Left 4 Dead 2
Spider-Man
Monster Hunter World
Titanfall 2
All Smash games
Ratchet & Clank
Xenoblade Chronicles 2
I’m expecting you to list a lot of Nintendo games since that’s what so-called old school gamers love quoting.
Re: Game of the Year 2018: #4 - Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age
Easily one of the best games of the year. But gamers have short attention spans and feel like they have to kill something every five minutes, so of course this is overlooked.
Re: Site News: God of War Wins the Push Square Forum's Game of the Year
@playstation1995 Probably not enough action-adventure then. Also, the “ive been playing games since the 80s” thing is used to much, it’s a common lie.
Re: Persona 5 R Announcement Could Be Coming as Atlus Updates Website
@Jaz007 You’re on one if you think a game like Persona 5 wont sell as much on Switch. Switch is like a haven for JRPGs
Re: Persona 5 R Announcement Could Be Coming as Atlus Updates Website
@Derpie1 Where is Bayonetta 2 & 3?
Re: Site News: God of War Wins the Push Square Forum's Game of the Year

Re: Persona 5 R Announcement Could Be Coming as Atlus Updates Website
@Kindaichi Stop debating. It just wasn’t the game for you, and if Persona 5 bores you that bad what was your point in tapping the article?
Re: Site News: God of War Wins the Push Square Forum's Game of the Year
I don’t think God of War is game of the generation in any way. People who go that far probably haven’t played many action-adventure games.

This is pretty much a PlayStation site so I’m not surprised that a PlayStation exclusive wins.
