It is very difficult to make a list of only 10 games in general, because I have had favorite games every generation and it is difficult to put a game on top of another game of another generation, I left many games out, I made the list with the first games that came to me to the mind.
Edition: I forgot to put Halo CE, Halo Reach, Re2, Castlevania SotN, Metroid, Metro 2033, etc, etc etc.
I really miss Yu-Gi-Oh! trying different things. The chess/deck leader styling of DotR really sold it to me. I’d pay $60 for a port if they release one, honestly.
Whew, that’s tough. Not sure I can order them (aside from ME2 being uncontested #1). I’m just going to stream-of-consciousness list 10 games and see where I land. I’m sure I’ll forget a ton of my favorite games.
BioShock 2 is so great. I love 1 and Infinite as well, but 2 has such a great story, great shooting, great DLC… I even enjoyed the multiplayer. Best of the series for me definitely.
For now, I’m pretty confortable with this top 10. But it could change any minute
1- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
2- Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock
3- Silent Hill
4- To The Moon
5- Bioshock
6- Nier: Automata
7- Gears of War 2
8- Red Dead Redemption 2
9- Need For Speed: Most Wanted(2005)
10- The Sims 2
This is too hard, I have to do some honorable Mentions:
THPS2, The Last of Us(didn’t played Part 2 yet, just bought a PS4 this month), Forza Horizon 4, Mass Effect 2 and Max Payne
No ranking. I refuse. And these are just what jumps to mind, and I’m restricting to one per franchise.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Forza Horizon 4
Super Mario Galaxy
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
Fire Emblem (GBA)
Wolfenstein: The New Order
Gears of War 3
Super Smash Bros. 4 (I prefer it to Ultimate)
Rune Factory 4
Portal 2
Honourable Mentions: Alpha Protocol, Outer Worlds, Halo 3, Perfect Dark, Banjo Kazooie, Breath of the Wild, Dishonored 2, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Ghost of Tsushima, MSFS, Fallout New Vegas, Gears Tactics, God of War 2018, Psychonauts, Hellblade, Modnation Racers, Prey 2006… and like a billion others but I don’t want to keep upgrading the thread.
