Just updated the Front post guys with some of the old suggestions. Sadly the old thread was eaten by trolls so I may have missed some of the old suggestions.

 

If I have missed a few then please pop them back up and i will do my best to make sure its updated..

 

I've also added a few hyperlinks to a few places should people want to know a bit more about the game or direct link to the front page post for the Audio DLC.

 

Enjoy folks!

DiscoBeaver,

How about you limit this month's suggestions to one genre?

Maybe something besides a shooter?

I'd love to hear about something other than a shooter.

Also I'm not sure how Forza 2 would work… its a driving game…. from a few years ago… tough to say.

How about as a community we offer up a challenge… something which not many people played…

I'd suggest Dynasty Warriors: Strikeforce

Firstly Young Jim, If your questioning my price limit and ability to keep to original criteria, i would like to point to the fact that your suggestion was Forza 2………….Enough said.

I like this suggestion and thats the kind of things we need for GOTM.

 

The difficult thing is that alot of people are putting up games perhaps that they have played in the past and hit with a good level of reception/impact, this we dont want….As much as it pains to me say, but something like Matt Hazard is the type of game in terms of original reception and impact upon release that we need.

 

Too Human came to my mind earlier today as this is completly different again over the two so far. I dont think I will be putting up a Poll for this month though as i dont feel it really worked  for this months (There are things behind the scenes that i had to play with in regards the Junes GOTM)

All that being said. Keep up the great work guys, I'm totally in the love with how you lot are responding to this.

You keep it coming and we'll keep giving awesome

I think that its fine the way it is, that list has fantastic games on it which i would love to play. Mirrors edge is a shooter?? theres only 3 fps in the list. I could understand if there was all the CODS!. What i would suggest though is getting rid of exclusives.

Thats cool buddy and like i said i apperciate the suggestions.

 

It is difficult to find games that hit all the buttons but there are a few titles already on the list. Trying to work out a selection process as i didnt really like the poll.

 

Watch this space!

well you got to think of it most games under a fiver will be mass old triple aaa shooters it is the way the pro owned syterm works  or crappy sports games

only way you can get a unique title for a fiver is by getting pc games but then you are filtering the people who can do it

so in summary most  of the time game of the month most likely to be a shooter of some  form

I would like to think that this is a game that will make its way onto the list at some point in the future.

Our very own Mantismat's favorite…

Thanks to the guys at West Midlands Gamers (WMGamers.com) for spotting the deal

Ah nice little find buddy,

 

I have a checkered history with that game….namely that i hate it……however if enought people cry out, I may be inclined to  select it as a future GOTM.

 

however, our good friends @ CEX have come up trumps again….

 

XBOX 360 - £3.50

 

PS3 - £4.00

 

If your not to precious of owning a new copy…….If you already own this game then may the lord have mercy on your soul!
