Of course its female..where are the males? And if there is one there better be sgt Johnson in it.

Pozzle5187d ago

Yep, they've made a male one too, though I don't know how well it'll do on n4g: http://n4g.com/news/710684/...

And yep, Sgt Johnson is on the list :)

Christie Monteiro african american? is that guy nuts?

Yes_25187d ago

IKR? She's Brazillian.
And Sheva is African. Not African American.
And Alyx is only half African American.

If this is the best list he could come up with, it's a little sad that there aren't really any African American females to choose from in gaming.

Simon's Quest is better than Symphony.

If you're gonna troll, at least make a legitimate attempt.

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.

Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.

That's a pretty fucking great list

The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.

One of my biggest art heroes. His work and vision were truly one of a kind, and he’s been a huge inspiration to my own work. Such a heartbreaking loss.

Remember seeing Dishonored for the first time when it released, fell in love with the art style straight away, so striking! And because of it, still holds up and will for years to come, RIP Viktor

JEECE85d ago

Yep I remember seeing some of the earliest concept art for Dishonored and hearing that the art director of Half-Life 2 was working on it and being excited.

And you are absolutely right, each of those games (HL2 and Dishonored) has a distinct art style that stands the test of time.

Relientk7785d ago

So sad to hear this. I absolutely love the Dishonored series and love the world and art style. It looks great and unique. I'm still hoping for a Dishonored 3

Ethereal85d ago

Damn... Dishonored has such amazing art. RIP.
