They're all wrong.

Good thing "Greatest" is just an opinion.

Tempist5565d ago

Albet a shared opinion.

Note: Only about 3-4 games on the Nintendo platforms are NOT made by Nintendo.

Product5565d ago

ZX Spectrum - Chaos

Oh and the original Dizzy was the best of the series. Tough and not very forgiving though. Manic Miner was overrated.

GOD OF WAR
PS3: uncharted, R&C, POP, burnout, HS
xbox: DOA, colin mcrae, mortal kombat(not sure which game it was terrible game but the bonus puzzle game was so addicive with my brother AH the good old days!!! damn what was i thinking??)
xbox 360: some good games but MASS EFFECT really surprised me really good game and also LOST PLANET also good

edit: ahh forgot other great PS1 games (there is way to many) DRIVER the original is still the best one awesome game just got worse as it went on, also soul reaver, cool boarders, speed freaks, parapa the rapper(come u know u like it :) and on XBOX360 also PC JUST CAUSE 2nd game hopefully this year

Obama5565d ago

Steven I gotta give u bubbles for putting Valkyria chronicles on the list. I agree with you that it is the best game on the ps3 yet.

pippoppow5565d ago

NES-Legend of Zelda, Close 2nd: ultima Exodus
SNES-Out of this World, Close 2nd:Shadowrun
N64-Super Mario 64
Master System-Phantasy Star
Genesis-Phantasy Star 2, Close 2nd: flashback
PS1-FF7, Close 2nd: Resident Evil
PS2-FF10, Close 2nd: ICO
PS3-MGS4, Close 2nd: Valkyria Chronicles & Uncharted
PC-Myth the Fallen Lords Close 2nd: Alone in the Dark

- This list bought back some memories. Just have to state that the 90's, to me was the best decade of gaming, especially for the PC. With the advent of 3D gaming being spearheaded by 3DFX there really were alot of new ideas and a smorgasbord of genres during that time which made it amazing. So many other great PC games like X-Wing, Wing Commander 3, Ultima 7, Full throttle, Mechwarrior 3, X-com etc. Overall, what a decade. Wish they would revive and/or create new genres which is the main thing I find this gen lacks currently and needs.

INehalemEXI5565d ago

Bubbles to callahan09 because hes right Dreamcasts greatest was Shenmue.

callahan095565d ago

I find that somehow I've forgotten about portables & the TG16, so:

TG16: Devil's Crush
TG-CD (TurboDuo): Dracula X: Rondo of Blood
GameBoy: Tetris
GameBoy Color: Metal Gear Solid: Ghost Babel
GameBoy Advance: Metroid Fusion
DS: Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin
GameGear: Sonic the Hedgehog 2
PSP: Jeanne D'arc

rockleex5565d ago

One of the best games ever made. ^_^

I had never played it until it was released on the PSN Store. Its better than 95% of games out right now. >:D

The only bad thing about it was that it ended. :(

I just wish they could remake Symphony like SSF2THDR. Or make a new Castlvania that could stand up to Symphony... next gen style! >:D

callahan095564d ago

If you liked Symphony of the Night and never played the GBA and DS Castlevania games, I would HIGHLY recommend them. They're all great. My favorite one, though, is the second-to-newest one on DS, PORTRAIT OF RUIN. It's awesome in every way.

NathanGra5565d ago

You can disagree with them (and me for that matter) all you want, but this list was very refreshing and very well thought out. The writer(s) did a great job in analyzing their picks. I love that Mario 64 and Goldeneye took the 64, but don't think that San Andreas should have for PS2. FFVII would have my pick for ps hands down. Very fun read.

MassErect25565d ago

That list was great. Super Mario Galaxy is the best game of all those "best games".

Jubo15565d ago

i thought super mario galaxy was a amzing just not the best of the best games. i thing mgs4 wasm just my opinion though. and wth with gta being ps2's top game and okami second? what about mgs3 shadow of the colossus and there are tons more

Marceles5565d ago

Mario Galaxy was good but overrated to me. Mario 64 was a more incredible game when it first came out than Mario Galaxy, even though the level design in Galaxy is epic. I also like the fact that you can't really shortcut your way through a level in Galaxy. I definitely wouldn't put Mario Galaxy over Link to the Past or FF7...there's absolutely no way.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

CrimsonWing6949m ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker36m ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo26m ago(Edited 25m ago)

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing6916m ago(Edited 16m ago)

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos6h ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Tacoboto5h ago

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger885h ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
