Pretty poor list, although i'm happy AC2 is pretty high up, not so happy that Uncharted 2 is below Fallout 3 although i'll admit i hated Fallout 3 because RPGs aren't my most favourite genre so that can slide. Demons Souls at 100??? Come on...

That is just blasphemous, I think the one who did this list should be castrated.

Infamous 2, neat. :) Personally I love the game but I didn't expect it to make the list, likewise with Heavy Rain.

Troll article. While it's hard to argue about subjectivity ...they DO give their games numerical scores. There is absolutely no credibility or consistency in this list. It is something to work you up and give you something to talk about. IGN doesn't care, they want advertising money and clicks from YOU.

[QUOTE="dreman999"][QUOTE="charlesdarwin55"] You forgot atmosphere. And where does it fall flat?charlesdarwin55

PvE CO-OP. Story and story interaction, world depth, and characterization. As for combat, it's just apples over oranges.

The Co-op is the best thing ever happening to anything. The story presentation was great while the story itself was able to do its job, world was deep IMO although you had to somehow create it yourself a bit, it felt very unique and awesome. Characterization what's wrong with it? MAybe not the deepest ever but again it does its job. All this is small things just as story has nothing to do with smg apparantly

and what's apples over oranges what does that mean?

The fact you can't.... A.Talk to anyone. b.Choose who you can play with. c. play with friend with friend when ever you want. This is why the PvE co-op experience is flawed in DS. Even Borderlands got this right and it has PvP elements.Presentation is one thing, any game can have it, as with mood, but outside of that, bearly anything stable is push forward to tell story outside of a save everyone plot.

They need to stop making lists in general. This list failed as soon as they revealed #100 and it continued to go downhill from there.

LOL, Mass Effect 2 isn't even close to being as good as its predecessor, nevermind the best game this gen. It would hardly make the top 50. [spoiler] PLEASE start an argument with me, I've always wanted to have an ME1 vs. ME2 argument. I have essay's worth of material. [/spoiler]

Fallout3 > Halo Reach. Problem lemmings?

Fallout 3 > Starcraft 2. Problem hermits?

Fallout 3 > Uncharted 2. Problem cows?

Fallout 3... Super Mario Galaxy 2... Oh wait. God dang it! Now I have a problem!

Im glad to see Assassin's Creed 2 in the top 10. Alot of my favourite games this gen are on the list. I don't think alot of gmaes deserved their positions, but still, decent list.

Quite possibly the worst list I have ever seen. Just the fact that Wii Sports and DJ Hero are on it is embarrassing enough, but above Demon's Souls as well? :?

What? It's perfect, it all adds to the atmosphere of demon's souls, that's why they won't add it for dark souls! It's on purpose! And you can choose a friend to play with, I played with my friend all the time. DS has PvP elements as well

mood no not any game is close to the mood of demon's souls. What are you talking about? The story isn't the focus in this game even if it's presented very well.

I have nothing wrong with IGN stating their opinion(s), it just seems really contradictory to their earlier opinions. I have this feeling if IGN were to look back at this list at the real end of this generation, they would be shocked too.

How so? IGN has released and hired a lot of people this gen. Surely new people means new opinions?

Very, very, mad that Guild Wars isn't there.

It's is basically the 2nd popular MMO after WoW.

But stuff like Tiny Wings is =.=

Why are there two Mario games on that list when the rules clearly stated that there will only be one game per series?

That is the single worst list I've ever seen in my entire life.

Angry Birds, Mirror's Edge, Far Cry 2, Borderlands, Shadow Complex, Viva Pinata, DJ Hero, SSHD, Bionic Commando Rearmed, Wii Sports Resort, Tetris are better than Demon's Souls, MGS, Vanquish, Halo 3, Just Cause 2, etc.?

There is just so, so much wrong with this list.:|

Weird and lolworthy, just like most things Ign does. Demon's Souls is inferior to Heavy rain? Heck, Crysis is inferior to Modern Warfare?

I don't know why but seeing Mass Effect 2 there at #1 just gives me that unusal feeling that it doesn't deserve it.

Whoa. :| I didn't think anyone liked Farcry 2, I guess I was wrong. And Brainage, Cut the Rope etc. ..seriously? They should had made their own list for that kind of games, no way are they comparable to the majority of the list.

Obligatory "OMG, some by-committee Top 100 list from a mainstream gaming source doesn't perfectly mirror my own! What a failure!"

It's a far better list than I'd ever have expected IGN capable of. A few definite head-scratchers (Demon's Souls and Crysis in the 90s, Fable 2 in the 60s) and it rates some pretty bland-but-popular-because-people-don't-seem-to-know-any-better games too high for my tastes (BioShock, AC2, CoD, Heavy Rain, anything from Rockstar), but overall it's about as good as one could expect, with even some nice surprises like Limbo and World of Goo ranking relatively high (instead of the "gee, we better throw the indie-types a bone so we can pretend to be credible" bottom-of-the-list you usually see).

Also, lulz at not only Mass Effect 2, but Fable 2 ranking higher than The Witcher 2.

Terrible, terrible, terrible. How can Mass Effect 2 be on top? I loved ME1, I think I even gave it a 10/10 review, but ME2 bored me to death before I even finished it. And where is Mount and Blade?!?!? Come on people...

I think it shouldnt have numbers at all just 100 games that are pretty good, and for the sake of gaming why throw casual puzzle games into this mix? tiny wings, cut the rope those are games you play when waiting for an email or in the bathroom

DA:O is a PC game with a bad port on consoles

but seriously how can Fable 2 be better than both DA:O and Demon's souls? The last two being some of the best rpgs this gen.

Well, just going by the top 10, I disagree with 4 games even being in the top 25. The others are all decent games, but many of the games around 50 are better than the top 10.

I know, but I played the game on my 360. I still liked it pretty much. I like Fable II more, though, it's a more passionate game, IMO.
