10. Majora's Mask
Probably my favorite of the lot. It was depressing, it was eerie, it was interesting. Also some of my favorite video game music ever. 9. Bioshock More for the atmosphere and aesthetics than the gameplay, but I still enthralled the entire way through. 8. Mass Effect/Dragon Age/Jade Empire/KOTOR These are all the same game. AND YOU KNOW IT. I still like all of them though. Especially JE and DA:O. In fact, DA:O is probably the only one that isn't a straight KOTOR clone. Still. I'm doing it. 7. Total War series Sure I suck at strategy games. Doesn't stop them from sucking away my life. Especially this unholy Civilization/Age Of Empires bastard baby. 6. Fallout 1 I <3 this gaem. Fuck Fallout 2 and 3. This is the best. 5. Banjo and Kazooie/Crash Bandicoot I MISS BEING A YOUNGSTER 4. Oddworld Yeah, I bet you've never heard of it. It's pretty cool you know. Atmosphere and shit overshadowed the gameplay except in SW. Which may be my favorite. That or AE. 3. Shadow of the Colossus DUN DUN DUUUN DUUUN DUUUN DUN DUN DUN Beautiful and ridiculously fun. 2. Morrowind DUN DUN DUN DOOO DOOO DOOOOOOOOO I'll admit, the gameplay was ass. But the landscape was amazing with it's giant mushrooms and volcano. The characters were fun to learn about, especially when you learn that Vivec has raped a guy's mouth to death. Twice. Also FETCHER. S'WIT. N'WAH. 1. I don't know. :

10: Jak 2 (PS2)
Good platformer. Poorly executed Krimzon Guard alerts ruined it. Being out of vision achieves little, as a guy will spawn around the corner (you can see on your map) and run to you ruining your hiding spot. 9: Klanoa 2: Lunatea's Veil. (PS2) Haven't played in a few years, but I remember it being quite fun. 8: Red Alert (PC) I've always loved the way this RTS plays. 7: Duke Nukem 3D Atomic Edition. (PC) The level design is puzzling, and the bosses are bitches. The enemies inflict the right amount of damage to keep you above your toes (higher than on them) 6: Oddworld: Abes Oddyssee/Exodduss. They win the atmosphere awards. 5: Metal Gear Solid 4 What isn't to like? Stealth is a lot funner than I thought. 4: Okami I fell in love with the unusual graphical style. The brush powers were a brilliant mechanic that was executed perfectly, in my opinion. 3: Quake 3 Best multiplayer shooter. Intense action. 2: Kingdom Hearts The most brilliant real-time battle engine ever, which I've only recently started to appreciate fully (not spam X) 1: Jade cocoon 2 Amazing battle engine, easily over 100 hours play time and way too much replay value. Did I mention monster raising? |
