So this list took forever to make. I can quite say it was easy, but after my playing, and sleepless nights, I am final able to comprise a list of my Top 10 favorite games of all time, and why they are. So with farther delay.
Number 5: Journey (2011)-thatgamecompany.
So much could be said about Journey. It is beautiful, emotionally moving, heart warming, and poetic in every sense of the word. Journey is simple, and easy to play, making it not only accessable, but gives the game that much more powerful of a narrative. Overall, Journey is my favorite game that is a PS3 exclusive, and I highly recommend this game to anyone, gamer and non gamer alike.
Number 4:Pandora's Tower (2013) Studio Ganbarion
A wii game almost made it onto the list. But nonetheless, Pandora's is a must experience. It is a captivating tale, and the best romance I have experienced since the Notebook. Pandora's Tower is a must play for those who love a good love story. Kirby Return to Dreamland (2011)-Hal Laboratory The game on this list was originally going to be Super Mario Bros 3, however; Kirby's wii adventure into Dreamland is a mystical tale, with some of the most enjoyable and richest platforming sections in any game to date. The smile on my face while playing this game never left. The Wii may not be a hardcore console, but Kirby Return to Dreamland is a joy filled experience.
Number 3: Metroid Prime (2002)-Retro Studios
It took the longest time to figure out which of the amazing Metroid Prime games I should put on this list, I knew one had to make it, but in the end, Metroid Prime is the fantastic stand alone game and the reason my I played the Metroid series to begin with. This game is a stunning accomplishment in gaming and stands as the most atmospheric games ever.
Number 2: Bioshock Infinite (2013)-Irrational Games
Bioshock Infinite is the one game that will forever stand out in the over saturated shooter market. Main reason uniqueness and and power narrative feats the game convays through a power gripping tale. Bioshock Infinite is so much more than just a shooter. It is simple a work of art.
Number 1: Shadow of the Colossus (2006)-Team ICO
This game should be a given. But in the end, Shadow of the Colossus is a game that is simply a masterpiece in everyway. From its poetic like narrative, to a dark and isolate world, to an ending that still to this day is talked about. Shadow of the Colossus is my personal favorite game ever.
Honourable Mentions.
Kirby Return to Dreamland (2011)-Hal Laboratory The game on this list was originally going to be Super Mario Bros 3, however; Kirby's wii adventure into Dreamland is a mystical tale, with some of the most enjoyable and richest platforming sections in any game to date. The smile on my face while playing this game never left. The Wii may not be a hardcore console, but Kirby Return to Dreamland is a joy filled experience.
Portal 2 ( 2011) Valve- Portal 2 took the formula for first person games, and turned them on there head with the Original Portal, why Portal 2 makes it on this list is because it was that much more of a game that I value, and will always be a game I will remember.
