That list is from GameRankings.com. It averages the ratings from every popular magazine and website. This is just about the best site you can trust on the web for game ratings. And yes, GTA and Metal Gear used to be on the top 10 until Resident Evil 4 (both GC and PS2 editions) came along and shot them down errr... took their places :P
Not me. My bet is most of the review averages were based on kids votes. And don't get me wrong, I'm 34 and love to just drive around killing everything and everyone in GTA when I have a moment. I however will not let my kids play any of the GTA series much less most FPS games either. They really are just too violent and I want to make sure my kids understand the difference first so they make solid choices in real life. so they would have been voting for most of whats in that list as well.Quote:

Heck my 10 year old still sits down to the DC and pops in one of the various emulation Cd's I have made. :)Quote:

Other then that I have not touched all the PSP games, but I have played many and not one of them made me go "I gotta have it!". Sad really.
Maybe E3 becoming smaller will allow some of those game companies to get back to the most important element that's been missing, being fun. I'd rather play games with "not so great graphics" or "less then wonderful music" as long as the game itself is a joy to play.

GoldenEye 007, Resident Evil 4, Super Mario 64 and Half-Life 2 (PC) are all games that deserve to be up there. I pretty much agree with the list. :)
...but I'd probably include Mario Kart (snes) , the GTA series and super street fighter 2 turbo x (dreamcast).
Resi Evil 4 is (still) just amazing on the GC. :)
Nope. These averages are based on press reviews buddy. Go to www.gamerankings.com and check 'em out; it's the only site you'll ever need to go to to see whether a game is worth buying or not I've been going there for years, so this top list is no stranger to me I've seen it change throughout the times.Quote:

Goldeneye and Mario64 were great games to, as is Half-Life. Halo is a great game, but dare I say, over-rated. I'm also a little dissapointed not to see any of the FF playstation games on there (VII, VIII, and IX). You can't get much better than those, really (except Zelda). Banjo Kazooie was also very memorable, maybe not enough to make it on the top 10 but close. And yes, I think Vice City or San Andreas should be on there somewhere as well (they're pretty close; San andreas comes in at #13, Vice City at #19)
Hey, where is Shenmue? :mad:
true, wheres metal gear.Quote:

I haven't played Zelda, but nothing compares to a good weekend with the PS, FFVII and some snacks :)
If you havent played, and beaten, Ocarina of Time then you dont deserve to hold a controller!Quote:
