FF7 is the best game ever made.not fucking FF12
Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

I reckon A Link to the Past or Mario 64 should' ve been number one. Oh well, Ocarina of Time is pretty awesome too.

Heh finally playing RE4 for the first time (the Wii edition) and I can already understand why so many people praise it and why it came second in their poll as well.

But I' m kinda sad that there' s no Shenmue in that list. Those games were true masterpieces.

No shenmue?? WTF? No nights? WTF? No VF? WTF?


Zelda is a true great Franchise.

It' s a real shame SEGA /Westone did not continue with their Wonderboy seris as in the 8-bit games such as Wonder boy in monster Land and Wonderboy III: Dragons Trap > all the 8 bit Zeldas. If SEGA continued at that quality im sure Wonderboy would of been Zeldas arch rival.


As it stands now, ZELDA truly untouchable, TP is absolute class and full of AAA gaming experiences (only being over-looked by HD whores Wii haters). This coming DS zelda looks to be one of the most accessible action adventures on a handheld yet, truly awesome.

My only wish is Nintendo should make A traditional zelda game for 360 and PS3, To draw more of the graphics whores into Great Nintendo gameplay and expand the franchise. Im sure Nintendo would love to make an Amazingly pretty HD Zelda with beautiful scenery, gorgeous glistening rivers / Seas and spectacular dense lava caves. Could you just image how beautiful a Nintendo-made PS3/360 Zelda game would look. OMFG..

We can only dream.

I' ve got two words to say about that: Hell no!

Not unless the Wii gets Kratos and Master Chief. Which will never happen.

I would have put Mario 64 at 2 and Res Evil 4 at 3 but that' s just me being fussy. Ocarina of Time deserves it in my opinion.

This list is basically made up by retarded nintendo fanboys.

BTW in Japan the FF serie is crushing Nintendo in the best game ever list.

Wonderboy in Monsterland was a really cool game. Maybe with a different, somewhat more serious title, that series would have had more appeal.

Oblivion is not a no.19. Position 70-80' s is more suited.

So could be said about a few of these top 10 titles too...

Everybody has different opinions, so it is impossible to label something " the greatest game ever" .

I think Okami is better than TP, in terms of production values and creativity. It' s
a shame there won' t be a second.

I think Shadow of the Colossus moves a lot better than TP and in terms of boss battles, is a lot better.

TP ending is very typical with the series I mean who would' ve thought???

SEGA are sooo Underrated in these kinda of polls.


Shenmue


Every person i know who' s played Shenmue, absolutely LOVE it. The game is amazing when you really think about it. The QTE worked wonders, the fighting system is just excellently executed and still dam unique. One of the best ever musical scores to boot too. Certainly should be in the Top 5.

Sonic the Hedgehog


Who ever remembers first booting up the game must understand where im coming from. A Classic in every department. Still one of the slickest, stylish, most balanced, best looking 2d bitmaped games ever devised IMO. Just look at the title screen FFS! 16 years on and Still the best.

Panzer Dragoon Saga


OMFG, why is this game so underrated when it' s easily one of the best god dam games ever created. :(



Also, people love to point out how M64 was a big step for 3d gaming but seem to forget how big an impact SEGA arcade games such as Virtua Racing and Virtua fighter contributed towards the transistion into 3d gaming. Both set a standards in how we play or expect from each genre. Even down to ' view points' (VR).. it pisses me off when people go on about M64 introducing the first 3d camera angles in games when it was actually SEGA' s Virtua Racing that did this.

I can' t actually disagree with the above, it' s true how much SEGA did in terms of arcade.

Or maybe when Sega stops dropping acid, but whatever.


You obviously havent played through TP then

I' ve told you before, I' ve played through the entire game. The last half was amazing, and the first half was excruciatingly boring. It should be on the list, but not anywhere near the top. The best game ever actually has to be the best game ever all the way through.

My vote goes to Streets of Rage 2:

Drop in, drop out co-op.

In-game character select screen.

A guy on skates that isn' t a dejected Ice Hockey jock.

Getting away with a last boss named Mr. X.


Streets of Rage 2 ftw!!!
