2009 becomes slightly less awesome.

Initially, the games release schedule for 2009 was rather lean. Around April or May though, rumblings started to become evident that things were about to change and game after game would drop on our unsuspecting wallets and Q4 of this year would blow our minds out our arses.

Mafia 2 - meh
Bioshock 2 - meh
Max Payne 3 - Fuck!
Bayonetta - meh
Red Dead Redemption - Fuck!
Splinter Cell: Conviction - Fuck!

Mass Effect 2
Alan Wake
Final Fantasy 13
