It's not a good idea to say that F3 is better than the other Fallouts on this forum, and it's an even worse idea to explain why. I would recommend not bringing this up, because otherwise it wont end well :lol:.

These lists are always geared towards the severelynostalgic gamers. And Metroid Prime should be in the top ten.

Just saw the full list, it's not too bad, yah there are lots of flaws but overall it's not too bad. Surprised at LoZ getting #1.

Biggest problem though is Galaxy is only at #51 and Yoshi's Island is all the way at 185.

Ehm, no, not really, I think Fallout 3 is better. Less RPGish, but overall better.

That's because when people say Fallout 3 is bettersomeone goes on a rage and gets very upset. That's why it's better just to say nothing at all, because you just end up overwhelmed with people making personal insults and repeatedly telling you the same thing over and over again. People take it very personally. That's the nature of this forum, mob rules.

What? Bully was an excellent game. MGS3 was also an excellent game, and I do prefer it, but regardless they are both excellent games. I wouldn't put them that far apart myself.

Which confirms that Halo 3 received most of its high scores because of hype and not because critics actually considered it such a good game. Anyways that Xenosaga is there and Xenogears is not is annoying to say the least. Xenogears should receive more praise! I don't get why this game is not appreciated in the same level as FFVI, LoZ or Chrono Trigger.

Interesting that Halo 2 is on there though. I think he might have missed it though, I doubt it's not on the list if the other two are.

EDIT: Had a look over the list and it's not. Strange, Halo 2 was at 110 aswell. I would not have put Halo 2 above Halo 3, that's nuts if you ask me, espically when 90 places down it's stil not there.

Yeah, that is the logical conclusion to that one...

Max Payne is too low, Ass Creed + COD4 are too high and Freedom Fighters and Advance Wars DS should be on the list. There. That's what's wrong with it. Good to see Infamous & Crackdown on there though.

Which confirms that Halo 3 received most of its high scores because of hype and not because critics actually considered it such a good game.RedruM_I
A list made by one site confirms that? Eh... no. At all.

[QUOTE="SpruceCaboose"][QUOTE="angelkimne"]WTF, they gave Halo 3 9.75/10 and yet it's still not on their top 200. :?WasntAvailable

Halo CE got the nod. Most of GI prefers CE to Halo 2 or 3.

Intrerting that Halo 2 is on there though. I think he might have missed it though, I doubt it's not on the list if the other two are.

Its not on the list. My thinking would be thus: Halo CE invigorated FPS games on home consoles. Halo 2 introduced the Xbox Live formula to Halo. Halo 3 did not have anything "new" for the series really.

Yes, yes it is. I loved Crackdown. Thought it was very overlooked by many people.

KOTOR should be higher imoWarEagle1357
Most definitely and maybe around the twenty's or even higer for a more accurate assessment in my opinion. Call of Duty 4 is relatively high on that list, and there are certainly better game than this one. Anyway I am just glad that Resident Evil 4 came in at number 18, Resident Evil 2 at number 41, and Resident Evil 1 at number 106.

Mabye, the list seems to take into consideration time diffrences aswell. Personally I don't think that's a good way to compare how good a game is. We arn't in 2004 anymore, if a better version it out then it's still better. I will enjoy Halo 3 over 2 if I were to play either for the first time (Which is physically impossible.).

Well, confirms it for me. I still have no other explanation as to why such an average game received such high scores. Yahtzee's review is probably the one I agree with the most: fun, massively hyped game but ultimately average.

Agreed, although I don't like that they're using the same city for the sequel. This left me nonplussed.

seeing as how little big planet and MGS 4 are so low on the list does it also confirm that they're overrated? And seeing as how crackdown outscored MGS 4 and it's only 1 slot under little big planet does that mean both of those games deserve crackdown scores?

More like Top 200 Nostalgic games of all time.

The only one that even deserves to be in the Top 100 in the Top 10 you posted is Half Life 2.

Floppy_Jim

There's so much wrong with this list it's not even funny. Kingdom Hearts 2 is better than Quake 2?

inFamous is better than MGS3 and Eternal Darkness?

Batman: AA is better than Unreal Tournament and DOOM II?

Rock Band 2 is better than RE?

Guitar Hero is better than MGS2, SoulCalibur, KoTOR, etc?

God of War and WoW are better than StarCraft? Who made this list?

Not a bad list, by any means. However, OoT should definately be #1 and Call of Duty 4 shouldn't even be there.

There's so much wrong with this list it's not even funny. Kingdom Hearts 2 is better than Quake 2?

inFamous is better than MGS3 and Eternal Darkness?

Batman: AA is better than Unreal Tournament and DOOM II?

Rock Band 2 is better than RE?

Guitar Hero is better than MGS2, SoulCalibur, KoTOR, etc?

God of War and WoW are better than StarCraft? Who made this list?

yes KH2 is better than Quake 2 in my opinion. And in your opinion quake 2 is better than KH2. And for someone else they are both crap. See, its all subjective, its impossible to make a list like that. But of course thers many games that can be consdered better than others and deserve higher spots than others.

It's at least brave that they're not publishing the same kind of list as always with OoT on top and whatnot, but I think they've put too much focus on innovation. Of course, innovation is important in a game, but there's absolutely no reason to even consider the original Legend of Zelda the best game of the series. That it was the first seems like a lacking argumentation. The same basically goes for Super Mario Bros. Super Mario 64 was at least as innovative, as it was vital in the creation of the 3D gaming era.

Also, if they went by innovative gameplay, Goldeney should be way higher as it is one of the most influential FPS games ever.

Game opinions are subjective, but if you're going to make a list like that, you have to be as objective as possible. And objectively, I don't see how you can justify this list.

The only thing I find extremely "polarizing" is Call of Duty 4 ranking so high. Other than that, it looked solid enough.

Halo 3 > Everything else

This list sucks!

Chepocles
Halo 3 isnt even in the top 200 list nor should it be. Number 26= God of War which i think should be in the top 10 but still good.
