What a terrible list with the ranking inside the article being even more skewed.

Dishonored and Batman over MGS3??

imtheman20133711d ago (Edited 3711d ago )

I don't understand how a lot of people consider the Arkham series stealth. Yes, there are some parts of the game in which using stealth is beneficial, but for the most part, Batman: Arkham Asylum/City/Origins is an action game with some stealth elements. The Arkham games are, for the most part, fantastic, but I would never label them in the genre of stealth.

SteamPowered3711d ago

They have an entire Stealth section in batman in the riddler challenges. They are really good I thought.

imtheman20133711d ago

@SteamPowered

I'm not denying that the stealth that is present in the Arkham games is good, because it is. But the majority of the game is not stealth. I'd say that each one of them has about 30% stealth and 70% beat'em up.

Like I said, they're great games, I just wouldn't really label them as stealth.

CallDaCheeseBox3710d ago

Dishonored definitely deserves to be on the list. One of the funnest stealth games I've ever played. But above mgs3? Hmm... I think that anyone who says that is treading on sacred ground...

Benchm4rk3711d ago

The biggest joke is Chaos theory at Number 10. What a crap list.

OhMyGandhi3711d ago (Edited 3711d ago )

Chaos Theory and Pandora Tomorrow should both be at the top of the list. Dishonored, while a great game, is not a prime example of the stealth genre, nor is Batman.

McScroggz3710d ago

My top ten:

1. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
2. Metal Gear Solid
3. Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory
4. Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriot
5. Thief: The Dark Project
6. Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow
7. Tenchu: Stealth Assassins
8. Dishonored
9. Siphon Filter
10. Hitman: Absolution

It's hard to put an Assassin's Creed or an Arkham game on the list.

Im not even going to say anything, this is a fucking insult

The Arkham games are largely excellent, a shame they are being followed up by that god awful looking suicide squad game.

RaidenBlack190d ago

All 4 Arkham games are just amazing...
With the Gotham Knights turning out sub par, hope the Suicide Squad fails as well... So that both Rocksteady and WB Montreal goes back to creating good single player DC games ...
A batman beyond game maybe?

anal_vegan_moans189d ago

Having the game fail would make it harder for them to get funding for their next game, please don't wish this on them. They already delayed the game a whole year after backlash, so we still have to wait and see how it will turn out.

GhostScholar189d ago

I think asylum and origins were great. City was good. Knight was horrible.

You can't expect a game to match 96-94 meta apple for apple. Different era and different gen. No need to diminish either game's achievement. Arkham City and Spiderman 2 are both amazing sequels that improved upon their already incredible first parts.

Tacoboto190d ago

To back that up, there are major websites that adjusted their review scales.

IGN used to have a 100 point system; now it's a 10 point system. I remember GameSpot back in 2004 was razed for giving Halo 2 a 9.4 when IGN gave it like a 9.7 or 9.8

darthv72190d ago

Arkham Asylum was great, but when City came out... wow what a total overhaul that was. Nothing has had that type of night/day difference in scope and scale since.

SM2 is looking to be a great game in itself. Definitely an upgrade over the previous entries. Just from the opening battle with sandman, it gives me god of war 2 vibes with how that one opened with the battle with colossus of rhodes. That is still one of my favorite sequels of all time.

Zeke68190d ago

Thanks for the spoiler how the game starts loser...

darthv72189d ago

Zeke... you've had plenty of time to play god of war 2.

GaboonViper190d ago

And right on cue, here comes the downplaying of Insomniacs masterpiece, not gonna work, this game is gonna be beast in success.

BehindTheRows190d ago

From the same folks who gave it a 10/10 no less.
