When Mario heads into outer space, great things happen. Topping our list of the best-reviewed videogames of 2010 is Wii title Super Mario Galaxy 2 at 97%, the sequel to our 2007 game of the year, Super Mario Galaxy.
The new Mario title edged out the Xbox 360 sequel Mass Effect 2 (96%) and two versions of western adventure Red Dead Redemption at 95% (for PS3 and 360) to take home this year’s title.
GB: "With this feature, we talk about 15 games on the PS3 that should be remade for the PlayStation 5."
The head of Nightdive Studios has posted that The Darkness is on their list of games they want to do, so hopefully something comes from that
Little Big Planet 1 and 2 deserve a mention, IMO.
Good call on Motorstorm, a game released 2 gens ago but still looks and feels so good. Motorstorm 2 and Motorstorm RC were gems as well. They followed up the Motorstorm games with the brilliant Driveclub, which still manages to put modern racing games to shame. Imagine closing down a studio as talented as that ... (!) Incredible.
A little 'arcade-gem' back then was The Last Guy, a top down 'follow the leader' snake-like game where you had to find and lead survivors to safety during an alien invasion, on terrible looking 'Google-earth' maps. Graphics were poor, even back then, but would love that same gameplay with modern maps and graphics.
Street Fighter 4, once it finally had a full roster, was quite good, but it was always an ugly game, sadly. Imagine bringing that back while using the current SF6 engine.
Good suggestions, I'd be in for
LittleBigPlanet
LittleBigPlanet 2
Motorstorm: Pacific Rift
Motorstorm: RC
God damn I love motorstorm so much
At the time I had a low-mid range sony 40” tv, The latency to the controller was waaaay too high, would to play a modern version
In saying that later I got a 3d lg tv and playing the 3d motorstorm in my bedroom with the environment crumbling around the track, was something special, specially compared to what others were playing at the time, will always remember that
Some good choices here and Resistance: Fall of Man is my most wanted PS3 remaster/remake. Not sure about their claim it was Sony's answer to Gears of War though.
I’d rather have sequels than remakes. Look at Dead Space 1 Remake. Would’ve been cooler if we got a new entry and it failed with sales sealing the fate of a sequel rather than just replay the same game and it fail in sales and we never get a new entry.
Remakes are great for things like PS2 and earlier games to really get a crazy new graphical coat, but I think we should ease up on all these remakes and actually do sequels.
Yeah for sure, sequels would be ideal. But in the current market environment where many big publishers are risk-averse, I'd rather get a remaster or remake that a developer can do on a budget that will be approved, rather than nothing for an IP.
I rather they remaster and port over to PC and current gen all the games permanently stuck on PS360. Those games don't need remakes, they need to be given a chance to live again outside of their confined consoles and then give a few proper sequels. Like Sleeping Dogs, Motor Storm, LA Noir, should get another entry.
Yeah I'd be fine with remasters of PS3 games too, they don't have to be remakes.
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.
Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.
Pity.
Rockstar Games’ shiny new Red Dead Redemption port is now on GTA+, and you can play it while claiming some tasty GTA Online benefits.
Rockstar still strying to make GTA plus work
Should be $6 for the rdr game on sale not 6 bucks for a months playtime
I hear ya, 49.99 or whatever the price on that game is, is a bit stiff seeing as it's just a port.
One of my favorite games from PS3 generation. I have the remaster as there was a buy 2 get 1 free deal a while back but the price they are charging for the port is way too high although not surprising at all.
ps3 wins again
Metacritic says
1st ps3
2nd xbox 360
3rd wii
One day i'll be in here reading the comment section and there wont be one mention of fanboy this xbot that blah blah bollocks- playground stuff basically.Yeah not very likely is it
What actually is the average age on here or is it that obvious
List is factually incorrect, wtf metacritic!
Top 5 PS3 exclusives is missing higher rated games than Hustle Kings in the #5 spot.
I mean, MLB10 The Show has a 91 avg FFS, lol! ModNation Racers has an 83 avg and Sly Collection has an 85. None of them are in the top 5 but all 3 should be. For a site about stats and averages, that's a pretty epic fail.
On a sidenote, their "C = 50% or less" rating scale is the dumbest I've ever seen and skews things terribly. Everyone who ever went to school KNOWS that A = 90+ give or take, B = 80+ give or take, C = 60+ give or take, D = 50+ and F = less than 50%. Their bizarro scale is counterintuitive and I seriously doubt when 1up etc give something a C+ they're thinking it's an F numerically.
Don't have an account there. Aw well, I'm sure someone will notice. Right? lol.
Also, oops. Missed the 70% in my grade to number conversion, lol. C+ is usually in the high 70's for example. D for me ran from D- at 50% to a D+/C- in the low 60's. Point stands though. Don't think any of us ever got a 50/100 for that C in History or whatever. :p
Interesting stats.Pc got the lowest number of bad games.In other words,pc games are generally decent.PS3 got the console crown as they had a good year and this year even looking better.X360 got the most games.
So,no one is a runaway winner.
So,the debate of who is best will be continued...
