umm… Best games kinda hard…

1. Close Combat 3-5. \< by far… Must be the most realistic real  
time strategy game, where how fast you click wont matter if u win or not.
2. Day Of Defeat. \<- Great First person shooter…
3. Rogue Spear \<Good tactical FPS
4. Baldur’s gate II \< My favorite RPG, with loads of quests and stuff to do.
5. Half-Life \< The Best FPS storyline…
6. Counter Strike \<stupid people make it #6
7. Final Fantasy 7 maybe even (2 & 3) \<blows the rest of the Final Fantasies out of the water!
8. Ceasar III \< Great city builder sim
9. Natural Selection \< One of the best Mods for halflife… its: Star craft + Aliens Vs. Preditor = Natural selctions
10. Ghost Recon.

Nowadays she just sits around watching MTV all day. The only time she moves out of the chair it seems is to either goto school or to get food. All kids that age seem to be like that now. I weep for her generation.:_(

\*(i may have spent a lot of my youth on computers, but at least i was being constuctive! and i went outside…sometimes) \*\*

I loved the character. I did the same thing with my brother… he was Tails, just jumping around, and I was Sonic, trying to save the world… or animals, whatever.  
Knuckles is cool too. I like his hair… or whatever that is.  
Tell your sister to do some sports or something. 😉

God bless Nintendo 🙂

Here’s an article I found today on IGN: [http://top100.ign.com/1-10.html](http://top100.ign.com/1-10.html)

Looks like my favorite, Zelda, makes it twice in the Top 10 spot =) Only if Mega Man X would have made that list hehe.

Cheers!

I have just spent most of the past week playing the new ZELDA. This game absolutly rocks!I have completed once already and yet i cannot seem to stop playing it. So many side quests, so much treasure, so many mini games, so much unstoppable FUN!

Thankyou Nintendo, i pledge allegiance to you eternally.

K man - that’s a great list eh? I am a member of IGN (an insider they like to call us) so I have been checking this out for the last 2 weeks. I think they did a really good job on the list and some of them I have totally forgot about, so it was refreshing to see some of the titles again.

One thing that’s too bad about these lists is there is always going to be games left off the list that others think are very worthy…

I guess the list doesn’t include many recent games such as WarCraft III. Yet, Metroid Prime is there…

Yah good point Kirupa - I dont think Zelda Wind Waker was in there either…

I guess we will have to wait for another 2 years when they do it again… 🙂

you know what, I dont think Mario Bros 3 was on the list… that’s a travisty. That was one of the best games ever! It introduced so many new things… not to mention it had the biggest marketing campaign ever - “The Wizard” Movie 🙂

One of these posts again eh… ? 🙂

I am just now back into Zelda Wind Waker and loving every single solitary min of it - I am so hooked it’s not even funny. I finally have some free time from work and Link is taking up every second 🙂

I also really enjoy NBA Street 2, Rayman 3 (on sale for dirt cheap and it’s a fantastic game - go get it if you like Platformers that are absolutly amazing and full of crazy art and colours, it’s like a permenant Acid trip! hahah)

Dipi - nope, it’s for all systems… I have it for GameCube cause all my buddies have one. I would suggest getting it for Xbox if you can though… I think it has a bit better visuals and quicker saves. Either way though - on IGN all 3 games got a 9.4… it’s a fantatastic game.
