"Legend of Zelda"
Turok
Really Kotaku?
My top 3 are:
1. Skyrim
2. Tomb Raider
3. Far Cry 3

1. God of War 2: Badass bow with ice storms and shit
2. Tomb Raider
3. Skyrim (one of the few weapons that are actually fun to use, especially since you don't have to deal with retarded cameras doing backflips)
