What Game Will Become The Coverboy Of This Gen When We Look Back?

When we all played ocarina of time many years back, we knew that it wasa standout experience. I dont know if back then though i said to myself "Golly,this game is so good i think we should officially name it best game ever and talk about for decades to come"

We dont quite know during a generation what game will become the one that represents the best this gen had to offer, what game will become the one that first comes to mind when THAT SPECIFIC GEN is mentioned. Our gen isnt over yet, and there may be a game that tops everything we have played so far

BUT, based on what games have come out this gen, name that ONE GAME you think will be coverboy for this generation when we look back with nostalgia 10 years from now. Im interested in what you guys come up with

Mass Effect 3 ? :o

I hope.

The answer is obvious, Duke Nukem Forever.

Wii Sports :P

Uncharted, Mass Effect, and Assassins Creed have been the three pretty much hugest new IPs this gen, i wouldnt call them UNANIMOUSLY loved tho, not quite like ocarina was or bioshock currently is

Bioshock

Probably the souls games.

Bioshock

Mess Effect, Uncharted, and Gears....and sadly Skyrim too...lolydnarrewop

Bioshock

[QUOTE="mems_1224"][QUOTE="ms555"] I think personally that that is the strongest candidate, its such a unanimously loved and respected game, not many other games this gen have had the same amount of praise. Other close candidates? im thinking super mario galaxy, portal 2, and im gonna extrapolate and say GTAV might end up being in this category. But i wont be too hasty to bet on that yetms555

This gen will mostly be remembered for the Red Ring of Death.

It will go down as one of the biggest fails in gaming history.

No single game seems to stand out much, perhaps Gears.

For me? hmm Mass Effect or Uncharted I think... for the gen going with the crowds opinion? probably CoD4 :?.

SapSacPrime

Probably Mass Effect series, Red Dead Redemption, Arkham City/Asylum,

It'll be different for each group of console owners, but my gut tells me it'll be remembered (good and bad) for CoD.

Bioshock is my favorite game this gen.

Hardware with failure rates that high never get forgotten.

And what a handsome coverboy it is.

It will be something overrated for sure. At this rate it's looking to be Skyrim. It's a great game. I even love it at times but damn does it have some big problems, especially on PS3.

Call of Duty. It's been the biggest and most influential game (for better or worse) this entire gen.

Mass Effect? Bioshock? Uncharted 2?

Surely it will be something along those lines. If I had to take a stab at it, I'd place my bets on Mass Effect as a series that kind of tells the story of what happened in gaming this gen. It's got the sales, the critical acclaim, and the gameplay/story appeal to call it this gen's coverboy.

COD, Gears, uh... minecraft and the rise of indie games?
