YouTube for days to come number 10 Dom
dies
carmine lives years of war 3 I can’t
wait to do this shit I’ll get the
popcorn by the third game in the series
one of the carmine brothers dying was
basically a tradition so while the third
entry in the franchise was nearing
completion gamers voted by purchasing
different shirts for their Xbox Live
avatar to determine whether or not
clayton carmine would survive
Oh carmine by saving carmine however
they were indirectly sacrificing one of
the game’s most beloved characters
Dominic Santiago okay let’s get this
over with Dom gets one last chance to
visit his wife’s family grave in a
heart-wrenching scene before he
heroically sacrifices himself by driving
a truck into a gasoline tanker causing a
tunnel to collapse
simultaneously crushing himself and his
enemies
number nine the castle gets flipped
upside down Castlevania Symphony of the
night
okay so you think you’ve beaten the game
only to discover that you’re only at the
halfway point and you have to beat it
again to get the best ending what the
fake ending trend started with games
like ghouls and goblins but no game did
it better than Castlevania Symphony of
the night is over Belmont that’s right
reach the top of the castle and then the
whole thing gets flipped upside down
brilliant plot twists or massive game
filler either way you won’t be
forgetting this you’ve defeated me but
all is not yet lost number eight lunacy
portal 2 Wheatley seems like such a nice
friendly AI at first rule number one of
living in the future we assume at least
never trust artificial intelligence oh
us me they’re talking about
unfortunately just like GLaDOS before
him Wheatley is corrupted by power and
becomes the game’s antagonist let me
tell you I knew is gonna be cool to be
in charge of everything in the final
battle Chell looks up and notices that
big white moon through the hole in the
ceiling
one portal later and Wheatley Chell and
everything else are blasted onto the
moon
only thanks to GLaDOS does Chow make it
back alive and through the portal but
those few moments of zero-g Redemption
are glorious I honestly do wish I could
take it all back
and not just cuz I’m stranded in space
okay number seven reveal of the origami
killer heavy rain after spending the
whole game tracking down the serial
killer known as the origami killer it
shockingly turns out that all of the
answers you were looking for happened to
be right under your nose you discovered
my little secret several different
characters are suspected of being the
murderer but no one really expected the
hard-nosed detective Scott Shelby turns
out that Scott is the one who
experienced the traumatic death of his
brother as a youth slowly turning him
into a crazed killer don’t forget about
my scar
depending on your choices Scot either
faces justice or escapes a free man I
swore on my son’s grave that I would
kill the man who murdered him number six
you are Comstock BioShock Infinite not
the Prophet because he loves this it
sees you things get complicated towards
the end of BioShock Infinite with
alternate realities and jumping through
tears in the space-time continuum but
there are two main shocking reveals
number one elizabeth is actually
Booker’s daughter and number two there
are two specific strains of reality in
an infinite sequence of possible strains
of existence what is this place
Elizabeth it’s a doorway one of many one
where Booker accepted a baptism and one
where he didn’t the Booker you control
comes from the reality where he didn’t
accept the baptism and the reality where
he did accept it well that’s where he
changed into Comstock became evil and
founded Columbia so that means to kill
Comstock Booker must sacrifice himself
he’s Sakura cost she’s booked her to hit
boss number five rasnov isn’t real call
of duty black ops what about the
resident of the factory we need to find
him we won’t
he was never here if you’re gonna
survive a Russian gulag you need a buddy
to watch your back
Alex Mason’s buddy is Rezanov a longtime
prisoner who first appeared as the
Russian CEO in call of duty world at war
the cause of the zombie can never
Rezanov helps Mason escape the prison
and in the following years helps Mason
during his unauthorized assassination
missions on three leaders
Dragovich Kravchenko and Steiner works
but it turns out that Rezanov died in
prison and brainwashed Mason so he could
carry out his unfinished business styler
pachinko all must die Mason’s body
during the assassinations is actually
just a figment of his imagination
allowing Rezanov to pull the strings
from beyond the grave
my name is trigger random and I will
have my revenge
my psycho number four
opening scene The Last of Us there’s
something bad going on you’ve got to get
over here do you understand me there are
several shocking near-death experiences
in The Last of Us
including when Joel gets impaled on a
steel spike ouch
but nothing compares to the bleak and
harrowing opening scenes when he sees
his daughter Sarah gets shot as he’s
trying to carry her to safety
these opening scenes set the tone for
the Last of Us universe one that’s
filled with uncompromising bleakness and
people that have to survive by any means
necessary
I gotcha
this game is not afraid to explore
places of extreme emotional darkness as
Sarah’s death ultimately turns Joel into
a hardened bitter individual filled with
guilt and resentment over what could
have be don’t do it
okay number three going up mr. slave’s
but South Park the stick of truth do you
know what time it is mr. it is way past
your bedtime
somehow the developers at obsidian
managed to out gross the TV shows
already pretty damn gross source
material in South Park the stick of
truth what are you waiting for
pull it out there are dozens of shocking
moments to choose from including
watching your parents have sex while you
fight underwear gnomes but one moment
stands out above the rest we’ve got our
orders you have it how come we always
get the shit jobs go clean out the
barracks go round up civilians in their
homes go up a gay man’s butt home guard
against intruders in order to abort a
deadly snuke your party shrinks down and
crawls up mr. slave’s rectum
yes there is a part of the game that
takes place inside of mr. slave’s colon
and includes many Fiegel themed enemies
to beat up oh right number two Commander
Shepard dies Mass Effect 2 how about we
talk about this after we fix my leg
picking up where the first game left off
Commander Shepard is out in space
keeping the galaxy safe when all of a
sudden a single blast from an unknown
enemy ship breaks the Normandy into
as shepherd scrambles to save the ship’s
pilot Joker he doesn’t leave himself
time to escape and is blasted into space
as the Normandy comes apart what would
normally be the cliffhanger finale
leaves you reeling before the titles
even seen whetting your appetite for the
amazing game to come I was too close we
almost lost it I told you your estimates
world run the numbers again before we
unveil our top pick here are a few
honorable mentions number one it’s all a
simulation Assassin’s Creed nothing is

these words when it was first revealed

Assassin’s Creed to be a relatively
straightforward historical drama
adventure what they didn’t expect was
for Ubisoft to pull the old
bait-and-switch and throw the game
setting on its head I told you he’d be
fine bastard now now I just saved your
life it turns out that Assassin’s Creed
was actually a complex science fiction
opus where the protagonist desmond
delves into the memories of his
ancestors to track down the location of
the pieces of Eden powerful artifacts
that the evil corporation Abstergo are
also after another word now put my blade
to your throat you can invent it this is
