Destructoid.com Top 50 Videogames of the Decade

[BaudAttitude]

Glad to see some Deus Ex love, but now I'm going to have to go reinstall it.

At least I have school holidays coming up.

Very happy they chose Snake Eater as the entry to represent MGS. They said it was a tough call between that or MGS4... not as far as I'm concerned. MGS3 is the absolute pinnacle of the series. Would have been top 10 on my list though.

And oh dear... Okami.

[Kubrick]

Far too many RPGs

[smouty]

Wii sports will be in there somewhere.
Maybe Killer 7, A halo etc
I heard Nintendogs was no.1

[endo]

I'm not really sure what to make of the list so far, and I'm not really bothered anyway to be honest, but there's some dodgy writing there...

So, without further adieu, it is our pleasure to present...

Er, what? The word you're looking for is ado, chaps.

Videogames started to display their own voices -- their own souls

Yeah, deep man, that's beautiful. By the way, is it possible to display a voice?

As will Fallout and (possibly) Planescape Torment, if it qualifies for inclusion.

Well, the first two Fallout games were released in 1997 and 1998 and Torment was released in December 1999 so they don't (sadly) qualify for the list.

Yeah, but Fallout 3 qualifies and they can use that to represent the series. I checked Planescape's release date and I thought that they might be cheeky and include it anyway.

Ugh. I just puked a little in my mouth.

[KIT786]

Added the top 10, and all i can say is hmmm. While a few would definately be in my Top 10, most would not (to be fair I haven't played 3 of them anyway).

Surprised at the lack of a lot of franchises in the list (no fallout?, SF, Pokemon, Chibi-Robo), no racing games or general sports games.

I don't know if its only me, but turned out to be quite a disappointing list. Maybe 50 games is simply too little to sum up the last 10 years

22. Ico
21. Ikaruga

WTF lol. Ikaruga above Ico? Ico not in the top 20, nevermind the top 10? The article just lost it's credibility right there.

[Decider-VT]

Dear Journalists,

We get it. Hell, we even played it. Yes, Portal is good. We know. You can stop talking about it now.

Thanks anyway.


Yours,

The World.

No Halo? Probably not there just to get a reaction.

[speedlolita]

Hahahahaha. Pitiful top 10. SotC was boring as hell IMO.

[Barla Von]

No Halo?

I wouldn't have put Halo in there either.

My top 10 would look something like this:

1. Ico
2. Half-Life 2 inc episodes
3. Shadow of the Colossus
4. Deus Ex
5. Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne
6. Resident Evil 4
7. Gradius V
8. Jak & Daxter
9. F Zero GX
10. Project Zero

Destructoid eat yer heart out!

[jamesy]

I would've placed it nicely one place above half-life 2.
