Top 5 best Capcom games ever made

Agree or not, here are five of Capcom's best games ever from their massive library of video game gems from over the years.

[Myst]

Feel like something related to Monster Hunter should be here.

[solideagle1]

Okami is the best game ever made. he is missing. and DMC 3 is much better than 1.

thanks

[Blastoise]

No, DMC 3 is not better than 1. DMC 1 had a much better atmosphere, music, setting, enemies, characters & bosses. Nothing in the series has come close to topping the first one. Have you actually even played it? Be honest..

[guitarded77]

Commando!!!

[ThanatosDMC]

DMC1 started everything. Nothing in DMC3 can compare to fighting Nightmare 3 or Mundus 2 on DMD mode.

[Solid_Snake37]

correction*: Published.

[Thabass]

Agree with the Okami. This list is FAIL.

[solideagle1]

Of course i have played all DMC. the depth which is DMC 3 cannot be found on anyother DMC. styles, DMD bosses etc etc but if you think DMC 1 is better then good. In my opinion 3 is much better.

thanks

[smashcrashbash]

Damn straight.It is criminal that Okami should be forgotten for the kind of game it was. It rivaled Zelda in my opinion. Also DMC 3 was the best one.I agree. DMC was good but DMC 3 was even better.It had a lot more depth then the first one.

[adorie]

my top 5 would be...

Resident Evil 1

Breath of Fire 2

Megaman 4

Megaman X6

DmC1

[ThanatosDMC]

Megaman X6! Bubbles up.

MML2 would be another good one.

Chaos Legion if anybody else has played that game.

[colonel179]

I stopped playing Megaman X series at X5. For me the best one is X4. I didn't like X5 at all, so maybe that's why I didn't play X6. Is it really that good?

[Honky Kong]

How could there be 8 disagrees?! Monster Hunter probably made more money for Capcom than all their other games combined! Well i dont know, but its very popular here(Japan)

[PSVITAlitysensor]

Monster Hunter... yeah, but where is Capcom's best game??

STREET FIGHTER II!!!!!!

[geddesmond]

Aye remember the dude who wrote this probabley only played those Capcom games from this gen and last gen. Like WTF is SSF4 doing there. Its good but not capcoms top 5 plus Omnimisha 3 is 10 times better than 1. Same with Devil May cry 3

[RaidensRising]

Dino Crysis mentioned but not on the list and what about classics such as Ghosts N Goblins? Final Fight. Rival Schools,Powerstone and a firm favourite of mine Chaos Legion. Not forgetting RE: Remake.

Meh.

[Play2Win]

Crisis

[HellzAssassin]

Chaos Legion...
Not every day you hear someone mentioning that game. It's definitely one of my favourites as well. It's a pity it was such an underrated and underappreciated game...

[zerocrossing]

I never gave that game much chance since I stoped after the 1st section, makes me wanna give it another go seing all the prais it gets :/

[HellzAssassin]

@zerocrossing

Praise!? Hahaha, so many people hated on the game, and reviews bashed the living **** out of it; hence me stating it was "underrated"... But I guess as time goes by, people decided to like games that people hated on before. Like now, Legend Of Dragoon is highly praised amongst everyone, but back then, everyone was like "OMG FFVII IS SO MUCH BETTER" and so forth... But yet it's still one of the best RPG's ever created in my book.

Either way, you should definitely play the game. It's phenomenal in multiple categories including story, atmosphere, gameplay, character design, voice acting, etc.

[dredgewalker]

@hellassassin

I didn't know that Legend of Dragoon was bashed but I did enjoy the game. Sure it was no FF but it was good in its own right.

[Baka-akaB]

Yeah i always found it "odd" to see that many folks around here love LoD . BAck in the day most people i knew were hating it (that and legend of legaia) and pegging it as some poor man's ff7 .

Then again most of those people couldnt see beyond FF7 , or even only started jrpgs with ff7 .

[dredgewalker]

@baka

I actually didn't get into Legend of Legaia, I just found the graphics too dated at that time and didn't like the art style. It's not that odd to see people like Legend of Dragoon, some of my friends even liked it too. But the best rpg's on the PS1 one for me was FF7, Wild Arms and Xenogears because I spent a lot of time playing them.

[Kingdom Come]

You're mistaking "Dino Crisis" for the planned Prehistoric Prequel of Crysis in development at Crytek, "Dino Crysis".

[badjournalism]

I think we can tell what kinda of gamer this individual is. Can probably determine his age by this list too...

[pandaboy]

about 20 years and not a lame hardcore gamer?

[The GOAT]

Mega Man 2 and/or Mega Man X should have been on that list.
Though I do agree strongly w/ RE2.

[ape007]

resi 4.........

[-MD-]

Well he got RE2 right at least. C+ for effort.

[Megaton]

You're being too generous.

1/5. F. See me after class, msxbox-world.com.

[Venoxn4g]

Nice to see Onimusha.. I loved 1, 2 and 3 ..didn't play 4th from start to finish

If I can add Capcom's published games to the list, I really could add:

Okami
God Hand
Viewtiful Joe 1 & 2

[MWH]

good taste. Onimusha 2 was my personal favorite, still waiting for Onimusha 5 and perhaps Maximo III.

[MWH]

[pr0digyZA]

Sorry one more time :P

[insomnium2]

That's some great use of bubbles there my friend :)

[InLaLaLand]

You also forgot the Phoenix Wright series :D

[jthamind]

lol @ SSFIV. this guy sounds like a fighting game noob, considering SF2 and 3rd Strike are considered the two best fighting games ever made, while SSFIV is considered the dumbed down version.

[dredgewalker]

Even SF Alpha 3 could give SF4 a run for it's money.

[Rampaged Death]

Onimusha ! Capcom need to get started on a new one.

[zerocrossing]

Onimusha, Powerstone, Dino Crisis, Mega man, Rival Schools, Yeah Capcom need to get thier ass in gear!

[tiffac008]

.

[zerocrossing]

Weak list!... that is all.

[pucpop]

resi 4, red planet, final fight, hyper matrix, rival schools, marvel vs capcom, ssfiv:ae, alien vs predator, armoured warrior and finally, zelda: minish cap (co produced)

[Adexus]

I would personally put Shadow of Rome on this list, that game was awesome.

[Venoxn4g]

yea, really how could I forgot it...! great game, Capcom should consider releasing it on PSN .. Haunting Ground too! :)

[Chuk5]

Viewtiful Joe
Super Street Fighter 4
Marvel Vs. Capcom 2
Megaman 2
RE 4

That would be my list. But 5 is far too little.

[3GenGames]

Thank you, I was about to cry at this list, thank god one person agrees on MM2, some great music and gameplay. Deserves to be on the list for sure! >.>

[yokokoroma]

This list is far from being Capcoms TOP 5 games ever made! I think Capcom has at least 10-20 titles that meet that classification. Here are some real candidates:

Okami
Rival Schools
Breath Of Fire
Onimusha
Resident Evil (excluding the bad VA)
Devil May Cry (Original)
Street Fighter II
Sengoku Basara

That aside, why is an xbox site, doing articles, blogs, whatever? on PlayStation titles because that's what 4 out 5 of those titles are. (i.e. Resident Evil 2, 4, Devil May Cry, Onimusha) This is not the first time this site has done a article on PlayStation related games (previous entries were bashing PS3, passing off opinion as fact, etc...). I can guarantee that a official PlayStation site, is not writing and or posting xbox related articles. This is done, to generate traffic on the source website.

[Horny]

Wtf hardly any good games from the 90s. First of all fuck resident evil 4, it was a good game but damn its no where near the best. First 3 were better games in every way but graphics and controls, but tech was limited.

Where the hell are the mega man games? So many games left out from powerstone, dino crisis, to ghosts and goblins.

[wenaldy]

Tenchi wo Kurau 2, is one of my choice. Beating up Cao Cao's troops then decapitate them into pieces is so tense, lol.

[Tdmd]

Ah, onimusha... how I miss you...

[insomnium2]

I REALLY want a HD remake of those. Onimusha 1+2+3 on a single BD with HD graphics and trophies. OK Capcom....GO!

[gillri]

Okami is Capcom? should be near the top if it is

[Relientk77]

Breath of Fire III, and IV

[HarvesterOSarow]

Monster Hunter is great! Capcom used to make a lot of awesome games, but I feel they've fallen apart in the last couple years...a few companies have actually *cough cough*, but who doesn't? SF x Tekken will be a purchase for me for sure. Oh, also I wish Nintendo would let them make another Zelda. WTF Nintendo jump on that idea. Or let Retro take a stab.

[InLaLaLand]

No love for the Ace Attorney series? Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations along with the first Phoenix Wright game are great. Apollo Justice was better than Justice for All.

Capcom suck ass this generation but my Fav Five Capcom games are:
1. Capcom vs Snk 2.
2. Street Fighter 2 (doesn't matter what version).
3. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney.
4. Final Fight
5. Street Fighter 3 (New Generation has a fantastic soundtrack).

[MadMax]

No mention of Darkstalkers? Capcom needs to do a new Darkstalkers game the way they remade Street Fighter 4. Felicia and Morrigan looked awesome in the new Marvel Vs Capcom! My favorite fighting game characters of all time!

[Knightofelemia]

I would have thrown in Stryder that was one of my faves use to play it all the time in the arcade. Megaman I would have thrown in that line up as well I still play the old Megamans on my NES.

[videoxgamexfanboy]

No strider? Automatic fail. Its impossible to name only 5 top capcom games because they have such a large catalog. Try top 10 or 20.

[riksweeney]

Street Fighter 2 is the most important game they ever made.

[Hicken]

No Breath of Fire, no Rival Schools, no Okami...

[PirateThom]

DuckTales.

[DeadpoolBub]

Where's Marvel vs Capcom 2 & Dead Rising 2?

[StitchJones]

I feel this should have been a top ten list. And Dead Rising, Breath of Fire III and Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 should be in that list along with Mega Man 2.

[KidMakeshift]

No old school Capcom love?

Capcom was it's best back in the 80's/early 90's

Dungeons & Dragons anyone?

[Arknight]

Mega Man 2 for sure. Who can forget one of gaming's most epic tunes!??

[CanadianTurtle]

I know its just his opinion, but wow, thats a pretty crappy list.

To be honest, it'd be really hard to make a top 5 list since they've come out with amazing stuff like

Resident evil 1-4
Marvel vs Capcom 1-3
Ghouls N Ghosts
StreetFighter 2
DeadRising
Strider

Yea, way too many to name.

[Thabass]

No Okami? Nope, this list is crap.

[Tigerfist]

I'd remove Resident Evil 4 and Street Fighter and I'd put Killer 7 and Okami instead.

[kingcron]

Just think about how far ahead of it's time the Resident Evil franchise was. Those games sparked a whole generation of zombie loving kids. I don't think The Walking Dead would be as big as it is right now without Resident Evil paving the way.

[baodeus]

Resident Evil (1,4)
Capcom vs SNK 2
DMC (1,3)
Mega Man
Street Fighter 2 (a major leap in 2D fighting games)

[galmi]

devil may cry 1, resident evil 3, resident evil 1, resident evil zero, onimusha, megaman, street fighter 2 3, ex plus alpha, ex 2 plus, rival schools and clock tower 3...yeah and pn 03 too

[Prototype]

Rival Schools
Strider 1/2
X Men vs Street Fighter
Final Fight
Street Fighter Alpha 3

[GamerLifeStyle]

I'm sorry, but Devil May Cry is the only game series I like Capcom for. Eventhough Dante is my most favorite video game character of all-time. Lost Planet is alright too. Righteous!

[Lord_Sloth]

Monster Hunter
Devil May Cry
Onimusha
Capcom vs SNK
Resident Evil

This refers to the franchises as a whole rather than just 1 entry from each series.

[3GenGames]

Bionic Commando for the NES, one of the best. Mega Man 2 also. You can't exclude those 2, you just can't.

[TheMutator]

mehhh that list is for kids!!!
1) Megaman 2
2) Megaman X
3) Demon Crest
4) Street Fighter 2
5) Resident Evil 1

[contra157]

This list is such a joke that I don't know where to start haha.The person that wrote this must of had Xbox for their first system . Clueless.

[deno]

Good one...haha

[Der_Kommandant]

No Street Fighter 2????

Really??????

[Rayko]

1.) Resident Evil PS
2.)Resident Evil Remake
3.)Resident Evil 2
4.)Powerstone
5.)Street Fighter 2 (SNES)

[rizzo-rizzo]

Street Fighter 2 wins. It's one of the greatest games of all time.

If you were born after 1989, you have absolutely no right to make a top 5 Capcom list, or any gaming list for that matter.

[deno]

I guess megaman is a small series? Shameful!!!!!!!

[girlwithturn]

1) Resident Evil 2.
2) Dino Crisis 2
3) Resident Evil Outbreak series.
4) Resident Evil 3.
5) Resident Evil 1.
Oh, god, it's a msxbox-world.com, they didn't play those games.

[deno]

I must say that your taste in games is great.

[acemonkey]

not that bad of a list thank god MvC3 didnt made it
