Super Mario Galaxy 1 5. Bioshock 1 6. Portal 2 7. Uncharted 2 8. Batman AC 9. Red Dead Redemption 10. Bioshock Infinite Honorable Mentions: DARK SOULS FALLOUT 3 DEUS EX HR HALO REACH BATTLEFIELD 3 MODERN WARFARE 1 JOURNEY MGS4 SUPER SMASH BROS BRAWL ASSASSINS CREED 2 WITCHER 2 Games i personally almost put in- FARCRY 3, Walking Dead, Borderlands 2, Max Payne 3, Halo 4, Zelda Skyward Sword, Limbo

you guys are too picky to be a decent judge of gaming.

i have literally played hundreds of games this gen that i thought were good.

my best of list would probably be over a hundred games.

Anytime a thread title has "Can we agree?" or anything close to that I can go into the thread knowing I will not agree. Never fails.

Sorry, but Halo 3 definitely makes the top 10 list. Still unmatched when it comes to content. I mostly agree, although I'd swap out Mass effect 2 for either 1 or 3. Oblivion instead of Skyrim. COD4:MW deserved to be there more than the likes of Portal 2.

It is an amazing game though. If anything, it pushes uncharted 2 into irrelevancy. Both shouldn't be on the top 10 list because TLOU is superior in every way.

Even tho i think its totally fine to disagree, to say its sucky would be a bit extreme i think. Most of these games are the ones considered the instant classics and masterpieces of this gen, im curious what u think should have made the list

I don't know about the positioning of the games on the lists but I will say I agree that all the games on both lists are excellent.

You are asking a bit too much to get all of these knuckleheads to agree on anything though.

Exactly.

You named off several games I either do not like or simply thought were mediocre so thus I cant agree with your list of the best games because I dont think quite a few of them are.

You cant really argue personal taste since no two people have exactly the same one. Just because I like a game doesnt mean others have to, and if other people like a game I dont then thats fine and doesnt make the game actually bad, just means I think its bad.

Any list based on pure opinion is always a waste. Unless you can list something based on facts then a list means nothing.

Why is Halo Reach an honorable mention? Is it because Bungie made it and because they're multiplat now so they can do no wrong? Reach was hated by the Halo community too.

No, not really. Plus, there's a crowdsourced thread on this very forum, like, three threads down from your thread, that is basically trying to compile a list of the best games this generation that will hopefully actually have some legitimacy because all of System Wars is voting on it.

NO Also, this thread is an automatic fail. Not only are 10 games way too few to sum up the entire gen (keep in mind this gen has been way longer than previous ones), but of course no one is gonna agree with that list.

Trials Evolution isnt even on the list, easily one of the top 3 games of this gen.

 

The only way someone could not have that on the top 10 list is either they never played it, or they are filthy casual, which invalidates their opinions.

Nope. Can't fully agree with the list. Probably not an overall bad one though, and I do give you proprs for mentioning Halo Reach.

Honestly was not too impressed with this Gen Besides

The Last Of Us, Bioshock 1, and Disgaea 4.

Sure there are lots of great games, but these are the ones I remember the most (The ones that. There experiences dont top other PS2 games like ICO or Shadow Of The Colllosus though.

So I guess it was a OK gen. Hopefully next gen will be better.

Started playing Demon's for the first time after LOVING Dark and I don't know why people say that. Demon's is one hell of a game but Dark Souls is overall much better and refined
