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...JohnF111That is just blasphemous, I think the one who did this list should be castrated.
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[QUOTE="dreman999"][QUOTE="charlesdarwin55"] You forgot atmosphere. And where does it fall flat?charlesdarwin55
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.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.
Will there ever be a list of a top 100 where everyone agrees? Absolutely not. Stop complaining. mrmusicman247This. You can't please everyone.
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 wellmood 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. BlabadonHow 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 =.=
and theres no Phoenix Wright? :/
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.
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...
Of course you'd think so. *insert more gloating comments* :twisted:Like pretty much everything IGN has ever published, it's pretty pathetic.

[QUOTE="LookAnDrolL"]Fable II is better than Demon's Souls?? :lol:edidili
looool .. I just noticed it. Fable 2 is better than DA:O too. C'mon now, opinions or not that's just wrong.
I agree, actually. But maybe that's because I played DA:O on the consoles.[QUOTE="edidili"][QUOTE="LookAnDrolL"]Fable II is better than Demon's Souls?? :lol:khoofia_pika

I agree, actually. But maybe that's because I played DA:O on the consoles.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.

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.DA:O is a PC game with a bad port on consolesI actually enjoyed Fable 2 more than either Demon's Souls or Draggin A**: Boriginsbut seriously how can Fable 2 be better than both DA:O and Demon's souls?

I think this is the first time I agree with you on anything.Like pretty much everything IGN has ever published, it's pretty pathetic.
