absolutely nothing. Makes no sense why it is up there.What influence or radical changes in gaming did Twilight Princess cause?

Well Halo:CE influenced MOST FPS games on consoles. So there is some sense in that decision.Halo: CE in 4th and Half-Life 2 in 6th made me laught. Opinions are funny sometimes. :lol:

[QUOTE="RedruM_I"]I agree on FFX not being there. Uncharted 2 should be there in the top 3. Shadow of the Colossus should be first instead of WoW.Drakes_Fortune
The list isnt really about the 10 best games of the decade, but the most revolutionary and with bigger impact on the industry, the ones that influenced many other games. If it were about the top 10 best games, GTA SA would have been there instead of GTA 3 and so on. So Shadow of Colossos shouldnt be first at all, i dont think it was very revolutionary or had many influence in many other games, maybe it shouldnt even be on top 10, but alright. Said this, and as the list follows this criteria i might agree with FFX no being there, but if this was really about the top 10 best games, then it should be there.
Biggest Impact? If that's the case, then Wii Sports and Wii Fit should be on there.
Metroid prime didn't influence anything. I can't see why it's up there tbh :?.Decent list. I'm just glad they included Metroid Prime. Any top ten list that lacks it is fail. :P

Was influence a pre-requisite? A game can't be on the list for simply being an excellent game?

I know but since when should ports/rereleases count.Seabas989
I dont agree with RE4 on the list. Remake beats the crap out if it. There are others I dont care for like galaxy or halo. Well its thier list of opinions so watever.

Wii Sports and Wii Fit are gimmicks, not story driven games. Devil May Cry is trully astounding when it first came out, infact, there wasnt anything like it, and pretty much every hack n slash adventure game has used and abused the DMC formula since. It was designed amazingly, and its a shame the remaining DMC series lack that "artistic" touch that DMC1 had. DMC3 however was brilliant but again, no good art direction.

...No.RE 1 is a great remake.. but the gameplay is still almost the same from its predecessorI dont agree with RE4 on the list. Remake beats the crap out if it. There are others I dont care for like galaxy or halo. Well its thier list of opinions so watever.

ALTTP is one of my top 3 favorite games of all time and my favorite game of the 90's. However it shouldn't count because the game was originally released in 92 and games that should be on a list of best of the deacde should be original games released in those 10 years. Obviously GT didn't put any GBA or any other rereleases or else we would have saw Chrono Trigger, Super Mario 64 Advance, FFVI Advance, Super Mario Advance, etc.
I will say it has aged well but hey put it on your greatest of the decade list. I'm not stopping you.
I grade it a 6/10, DMC, LoZ:TP, and Metroid Prime shouldn't be there and I don't think RE4 should be as high as third (but I'd probably give it a latter-end spot at 8 or 10 maybe). I'm sort of surprised to see how much of the shaft decade-raters have been giving MGS4 but glad to see they still remember how awesome SotC was.

okay how is a laughable story better then no story.. id rather play an online game with no story then playing a game with a terrible story full of cheesiness.. and what game had a bigger impact this gen then wii sports.. ? (sans brain training or nintendogs)[QUOTE="Sky-"]absolutely nothing. Makes no sense why it is up there. they did have the point that it did interesting things with the motion controls, and it did do great advances in puzzles and such. Seriously, for all its faults TP had the best dungeons of any zelda game (any 3d zelda anyway).What influence or radical changes in gaming did Twilight Princess cause?

Also, to people who don't think that Metroid Prime was influential, what planet are you on? MP was called a "First Person Adventure", and it was the first of its kind. Games like bioshock simply would not exist in the same way without MP's influence. Besides that, it ramped up the standard for quality in all First Person games.
there is a diffrence with this list and IGN's
ign only picked from their GOTY's this decade
while GT is pritty random
considering some of the games on the list (TP) , and the placement of others, like halo on 3rd
they should have made the criteria for those games clear, now it just seems like more personal opinions, insted of taking it from the neutral side,
whice would be like "the most influencal games this decade" or "best scoring games" ect.

i'm pretty sure that this list is about overall excellence. Originality is a huge plus, and the measure of anything truly great is how often it is copied and by that measure Halo should be at #1 (as much as I hate that series). Execution and fun are factors too I'm sure.[QUOTE="Half-Way"]i'm pretty sure that this list is about overall excellence.

GunSmith1_basic
well your probably right, going by that they made the list pritty right, considering
how many play the game
how ofen its copied
and fun factor
however ALL those games are copied alot .they basicly picked the iconic games of every genre
mario for platformer
halo for FPS
GTA for sandbox
zelda for action/advantrue ect.
and their placement was based on how popular the genre itself was.
which resulting in halos high rank, becouse FPS is argubly the consoles best selling genre
while the PC with its MMO's clearly has more players
Wind Waker should replace Twilight Princess because it has a nice change to Ocarina of Time and Resident Evil 4 fully deserves a place well it felt fresh because the others were getting a bit stale.
Remove Twilight Princess and you have a solid list.Bread_or_DecideI agree. remove TP for Wind Waker.
Silly question but how is Halo revolutionary?! DibdibdobdoboIt's in the title. combat EVOLVED. Is that not enough? lol.
