Kotaku Gift Guide: For The ‘Dudebro’ In Your Life

Everyone has a gaming ‘Dudebro’ in their life – I know I have. The kind of guy that enjoys playing games, but isn’t necessarily ingrained in the culture, the guy that enjoys his first person shooters or his sports games, but isn’t trawling the web for news on The Last Guardian. Well, Christmas is rapidly approaching, and you may have to buy a gift for your ‘Dudebro’. This is our guide.

SUGGESTION #1
Call of Duty: Black Ops: RRP $119.95
Whether you love it or hate it, the Call of Duty series is inescapable, especially for those that only buy a couple of games a year. In a sense Call of Duty: Black Ops is the quintessential ‘Dudebro’ game, and you’ll rarely get a dissatisfied look when they unwrap this bad boy. It’s probably also worth mentioning that Black Ops is by far Treyarch’s best Call of Duty game yet, and we actually prefer it to Modern Warfare 2.

SUGGESTION #2
FIFA 11: RRP $109.95
Sports games are a top pick for your more casual 360 or PS3 owner and, depending on the sport, you may want to switch this for NBA Jam, Fight Night Round 4, or Madden. We reckon, however, that FIFA 11 is probably the best sports game on the market at the moment – you can’t go wrong with this one.

SUGGESTION #3
UFC 2010 Undisputed: RRP $109.95
Depending on the preference of your ‘Dudebro’, you may want to swap this for Fight Night Round 4, but MMA is starting to become super popular these days and UFC 2010 Undisputed is the best of a small sub-genre. As a multiplayer game it’s also a lot of fun. Aggressive ‘dudebros’ may take the action too far, so use your disgression when choosing this game. If your ‘Dudebro’ is the kind of guy that sinks beers and goes out looking for walls to headbutt, you may want to steer clear of this one.

So what do you think guys? Have we missed anything? What are you going to buy for the ‘Dudebro’ in your life?
