These are my top 10 games of all time. I have thought about this one for days now, and this thought is worthy enough to be posted.
Number 10: Soul Calibur- Genre: Fighting- DreamCast
I remember popping this game in my DreamCast and just...being blown away. There was nothing like it! Except I think they ripped of Tekken 3 a bit, but who cares. The graphics were incredible at the time, and still are. The gameplay, sound, and value were incredible and I still pop it in the ol' DreamCast from time to time to play it.
Number 9: Tekken 3- Genre: Fighting- PlayStation
This game was INCREDIBLE. Better that Soul Calibur, bettter than Dead or Alive, better than any fighting game on the market. The only reaseon SC and Tekken aren't tied is because I believe SC ripped of Tekken a bit, but even if they didn't Tekken will still be better. I kick ass in that game, won a couple of championships with my friends, and I lost in the State Semis, to go to national. I was Jin kazama, She (I know,
SHE beat me) was Xiaiou (God, how canyou spell that name?).
Number 8: Resident Evil- Genre: Horror-Action Adventure- PlayStation
There was nothing like it back in, oh who know, '96? '97? Around there. I mean to be able to shot the living day-light outta those zombies was kick ass. I never played any game like it before. There probably was a game like it, but I overseeked it.
Number 7: Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortez Striles back!- Genre: Platformer- PlayStation
Enter the vivid 3D world of Crash Bandicoot! His girlfriend has been held captive and his arch nemisis has a big N on his forehead! Ha ha, I remember that ad, it was so stupid that I had to buy the game. The first one was pretty good, so I owed it to Naughty Dog to buy the 2nd game. what an improvment.
Number 6: Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped!- Genre: Platformer- PlayStation
The 3rd game of the series was even better than the other two combined. I liked the new idea of letting Crash's sister to get a fair amount of levels. The story-line was good, the graphics were perfect (one of the best in history at that time!) and you could keep on going back to it without getting bored.
Number 5: Ratchet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal- Genre: Platformer- PlayStation 2
Yeah, I know what your thinking, this kid only likes platformers! I like a lot of other genres too, but this were one of the greatest games ever! The game was the coolest platformer gmae in history, with all of the guns and missions and crap.
Number 4: Madden 2004- Genre: Sports- Xbox
This Madden was the biggest jump in improment from year to year. The graphics were phinominal, the gameplay was the best, and the value was incredible. I still play Madden '04 on a daily basis! '05 and '06 was the worst jump in franchise history. Madden 05 was great but '06 was nothing but an improvement in graphics, other than that it was the SAME THING!
Number 3: God of War- Genre: Action Adventure- PlayStation 2
This game was one of the Action Adventure games in the history of the video game market. I mean, how cool was it to go back into Ancient Greece and kick ass there? It was freaking awesome!
Number 2: Mario Kart 64- Genre: Racing- Nintendo 64
I just don't know what to say about this game...It was so incredible...I was a little kid when it was released, so it was a perfect game for kiddies. All of your favorite characters being blown up by Turtle Shells, and slipping on bannanas. Good times, gooood times....*looks back at memories of beating his brother with Yoshi and taughting him* Yoshi was the fastest characters in the game (I think ties with Toad and Peach) and hes a Dinosaur!!! How cool is that!
The moment you all been waiting for- Number 1: Resident Evil 4- Genre: Horror Action Adventure- PlayStation 2
From RE1, to RE 2, to RE 3, to Dead Aim, to Code Veronica, to Outbreak, and to the new DS game coming out, RE4 is the best game in history in my opinion and obviously in the series. Leon S. Kennedy is out on a mission Six years aftr the incident in Raccoon City (Can you gat a worse name than that?). His mission---to find the presidents' daughter, Ashley Graham. He finds out the zombies he is killing, is not zombies, but infected human beings. I don't wanna spoil it to you guys who haven't beat the game, so I'll stop it there. RE4 is so incredible...that...umm...I don't even know what to say. Easily the best game in history for me.
I know, I haven't listed all of my favorite games, from DMC3, to Splinter Cell, to Tekken 5, but these are my top 10 favorite. Man, this took me a
long time to time to think about and I finally finsihed.
