Now that the Colts and the Saints are set to pound each other into submission in a couple of weeks, we pose this question to you: which two squads of video game characters pitted against each other in a battle royale would generate the most colorful results?
Speaks for itself, I reckon…

Here’s your chance to wow all those Alpha males and the cheerleaders who shot you down. The limo rolls up, the gymanisum door opens and the assembled crowd gasps as they see you, a shocking image of uber-confidence with the following draped on your shoulder:
The new year is upon us and as 2009 withers away and dies like the geriatric old man that our clip art catalogs dictate, let us welcome in 2010 with a nod to babies, that universal symbol of newness and poop!
What kind of video game blog would we be if we didn’t do a list of best games for the year? A shoddy excuse for one, that’s what. So here we go, the first of six individualized lists from the writers of Pixel Verdict, to be capped with a year-end podcast where we bicker and argue about our respective choices, because, really, what kind of video game fanboys would be if we didn’t bicker and argue?
Hit the jump for my five best games of 2009, complete with party-pooping bloviating from The Contrarian Fanboy!
We’re all strung out on mall-to-mall-combat and deal-grubbing, so let’s keep this Yuletide edition of PaD short and sweet:

Gunbird 2 is, essentially, the most bat-&#$% insane shooter ever forged. I became engrossed with it when it came to the Dreamcast and everyone I’ve forced to try it has also fallen under its spell. It takes like nine minutes to complete, but features some of the most incoherent (read: awesome) storylines ever. Pro-tip: match chibby flying-carpet straddler Hei Cob with anyone and strap in for an endless march of fat jokes.
