Hey

Well, after all these days of posting lists I finally came up with my top 200. I'm kinda throwing them out of nowhere but I already talked about most of them previously, so this is just for fun and to show what is the best of the best for me.

I will put it as a countdown from 200 to 1, each game with the system(s) I played it on. And not including 3DS games since I haven't accomodated them yet.

Hi

Here is the third part of my series of blogs with gaming Top Lists. As I said before, these are simple versions of the lists I have planned to post since last year.

First, a link to the 2nd part, which has a link to the 1st part, which has links to the first four lists

http://www.gamespot.com/users/bak1234567890/show_blog_entry.php?topic_id=m-100-25979523

And today I will post three more (Top 10 XBOX, XBOX360 and OTHERS). Now these may not be the best ones cause I moved to the HD consoles too late, but in my defense, I have the most interesting titles of each system (a shame I couldn't play some of them though, since my PS3 stopped working). Anyway...

---

My Top 10 XBOX Games:

#10. Spyro: A Hero's Tail
Reason: Fantastic platforming, that is all I remember of it.

#09. James Bond 007: NightFire
Reason: One of the very few good movie games, one of few FPSs I liked, great story, great graphics and decent multiplayer.

#08. Need for Speed Underground
Reason: Very realistic graphics with unmatched street racing gameplay for the time.

#07. FIFA 07 Soccer
Reason: I didn't like the controls as much as in the GC version, but it had more cool features and was the best sports game on XBOX.

#06. Halo: Combat Evolved
Reason: The only Halo title I really enjoyed. The gameplay was somehow groundbreaking, stunning graphics, responsive controls, awesome vehicles and good multiplayer.

#05. Crash Twinsanity
Reason: Insane platformer with diverse, fun and some really crazy levels.

#04. Ninja Gaiden
Reason: Despite the ridiculously hard difficulty, it has lots of quality from the amazing visual design to the epic story and characters, and very satisfying action.

#03. Burnout Revenge
Reason: Not only is it one of the coolest looking and best designed XBOX games, but the multiplayer is a blast.

#02. Fable
Reason: Marvelous role-playing game with decent story and beautiful environments that contribute to the superb gameplay.

#01. SoulCalibur II
Reason: Just like the GameCube one, it's outstanding in every aspect, featuring a variety of modes to play and well-developed characters, simple controls and addictive gameplay. You can read even more in my GameCube list, a few blogs ago

-

*Some games I still want to buy that could be in the list:
Burnout 1-3
Dead or Alive 3
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
Hitman series
The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind

---

My Top 10 XBOX360 Games:

#10. Super Street Fighter IV
Reason: The most advanced SF game, sweet graphics, wonderful stages, fun game modes and a wide variety of characters and styIes. It doesn't beat SoulCalibur though.

#09. Need for Speed: Shift
Reason: Competitive, realistic and enjoyable racing experience with several features not found in other games of its genre.

#08. Resident Evil 5
Reason: A worthy successor to RE4, keeping the suspense and fine gameplay while adding bright visuals and other cool stuff.

#07. Braid
Reason: Because it is more awesome than many boxed games, it's cleverly designed and excels in story telling, making it one of the best puzzle/platformers ever.

#06. Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
Reason: Good animations, great sound, awesome controls, Ezio Auditore, Italy, online multiplayer...

#05. Mass Effect
Reason: A futuristic space-themed RPG that is as cool as it sounds, featuring interesting characters, good-looking areas and overall extraordinary gameplay.

#04. SoulCalibur IV
Reason: It has most of what made SC2 so amazing, plus Yoda and other new content, and of course the graphics and sound rock.

#03. Dead Space
Reason: Up there with Resident Evil 4 as the best horror games (that I've played). It's just thrilling from beginning to end.

#02. Mass Effect 2
Reason: See #5, but with better story, deeper and memorable in every way possible.

#01. Fable II
Reason: If there is an action RPG I prefer over Mass Effect, it's Fable. I mean, the music, the story, stages, controls are so epic. It has a huge world to explore and tons of things to do, and the dog... =)

-

*Games I have not finished that can still change position or get in the list:
Red Dead Redemption
Dead Space 2
Resident Evil 5
Mass Effect 2

*Some games I still want to buy that could be in the list:
Bayonetta
Dead or Alive 4
Dragon Age II / Origins
Fable III
Ninja Gaiden II

My Top 10 "Other" Games (this includes mainly Playstation games, some multiplatform and others I played on Mac)

#10. ICO
Reason: Intruiging story with a mysterious atmosphere, simple controls that work well.

#09. VVVVVV
Reason: Excellent music, incredibly hard but not impossible to beat, good gameplay worth every V in its name.

#08. Marvel vs Capcom 3
Reason: Enjoyable battles system, lots of great characters and stages.

#07. Portal
Reason: Surprisingly funny and original first-person puzzle game .

#06. SoulCalibur V
Reason: Yet another solid 3D fighter, this time with Ezio Auditore, much improved online and character creator, along with very detailed graphics.

#05. Shadow of the Colossus
Reason: Totally epic, like, seriously. It's a shame my PS3 died cause it could have gone up to #1 of this list.

#04. inFamous
Reason: Quite the electrifying action game :p offering simple yet challenging gameplay, and lots of exciting story missions.

#03. God of War
Reason: A pleasant surprise that became one of my favorite games ever, a masterpiece in action adventure, puzzles and mad combo attacks .

#02. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
Reason: Not too far ahead of GoW, but it does stand out in every single aspect, the presentation is brilliant, characters and story resemble some of my favorite movies, controls are flawless, the levels are diverse and the game is exciting until the end.

#01. FIFA Soccer 10-12
Reason: Well, I didn't want these to take my last two #1 spots so I put them together Each is basically an update of the last one, but EA always manages to make vast improvements and release the ultimate football game, there's too much replay value, visual and sound quality and a superb multiplayer experience, not to mention the detailed and well-researched stats.

-

God of War 2
Uncharted 3
ICO
Shadow of the Colossus

Thanks for reading, hope you liked it and feel free to comment

Hey again

Welcome to another of my final blogs, where I will post more gaming Top Lists. As stated in part 1, I've decided to do a simple version of each list since I don't have time to make the bigger blogs anymore.

Here's a link to the previous blog, which has links to the first four lists, and two new ones (Top 30 Wii and Top 10 WiiWare)

http://www.gamespot.com/users/bak1234567890/show_blog_entry.php?topic_id=m-100-25978935

---

Today I am writing two more: Top 20 GameBoy/Color/Advance Games and Top 20 Nintendo DS Games. And unlike the Wii games, these are not so fresh in my memory so my comments may be inaccurate but the lists are done since some time ago and very well-thought.

---

My Top 20 GameBoy/Color/Advance Games:

#20. Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones
Reason: Although I wouldn't have played it if it wasn't for the ambassador program, I can't help but to like the story and characters, and the easy gameplay at least in the first chapters.

#19. Yoshi Topsy-Turvy
Reason: One of few games that used the tilt function, and did it very well. Good graphics and sound also stand out.

#18. Pokemon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire
Reason: Fun pinball game with lots of Pokemon elements.

#17. Metroid: Zero Mission
Reason: Excellent presentation, exciting adventure.

#16. F-Zero: Maximum Velocity
Reason: Not the best F-Zero, but it gets the job done.

#15. The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
Reason: I only played part of it and found it extraordinary. Seriously, it has potential to be my favorite Zelda game.

#14. Mario vs. Donkey Kong
Reason: Mario, DK, great design, clever puzzles, epic music and sound effects.

#13. Yu-Gi-Oh! Worldwide Edition: Stairway to the Destined Duel
Reason: Pure Yu-Gi-Oh fun, mostly a well designed and addictive game.

#12. Mario Tennis (GBC)
Reason: Sort of a sports RPG game with hours of fun, likeable characters and deep gameplay.

#11. Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land
Reason: Easy, but brilliant title featuring everything that makes Kirby so amazing.

#10. Wario Land 4
Reason: Extremely fun, funny and smashing game =)

#09. Mario Kart: Super Circuit
Reason: It's Mario Kart, it has several cups to master and always offers a challenge in higher difficulties. Perhaps it lacks a bit in the control.

#08. F-Zero: GP Legend
Reason: Fine story mode, cool characters and the intense races this series is known for. Everything works perfectly to make it my favorite FZ title.
Note: I was wrong in the SNES list, the case where F-Zero beats Mario Kart is not so rare:P

#07. Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald
Reason: Good story, improved graphics, new Pokemon and new features that make it hard to stop playing.

#06. WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!
Reason: Tons of content, with the most basic mechanics and a touch of humor in each of the awesome characters and games, plus some incredible endless and multiplayer games.

#05. Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
Reason: First Mario RPG on a handheld, superb story and gameplay overall, keeps you busy for a while.

#04. Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3
Reason: A portable Yoshi's Island plus the original Mario Bros. and some extras, lots of adorable Yoshis and many well-designed levels.

#03. Metroid Fusion
Reason: It's a masterpiece. From the memorable story, stages and boss fights, to what I think is the best Samus design ever.

#02. Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal
Reason: Deep role-playing experience, lots of creatures to level up, enemies to defeat and areas to explore, I could go on, but the most important thing is that they're incredibly fun.

#01. Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow
Reason: See above. And add originality, epic music, most of the best Pokemon and gym leaders, all for the first time in the Game Boy :cool:.

NOTE: As a last minute decision, I put together the 3 Pokemon games of each generation because they aren't much different after all and were taking too much space in the top ten, but my favorite versions are Yellow, Crystal and Ruby.

-

*Games I have not finished that can still change position or get in the list:
Kirby & the Amazing Mirror
Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones
The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap

My Top 20 Nintendo DS Games:

HONORABLE MENTION (practically tied at #20). Diddy Kong Racing DS
Reason: Enjoyable racing game with online, story mode and good controls.

#20. Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time
Reason: It's pretty awesome, introduces some new ideas to the series. I found it a bit hard for some reason.

Reason: Nice graphics and sound, high speed Sonic action that almost everyone loves.

#17. Yoshi Touch & Go
Reason: Yoshi, touch screen, mic, magnificent playablity and more Yoshi :D.

#15. Star Fox Command
Reason: Most likely my favorite Star Fox game, great story and gameplay, and pretty good multiplayer.

#14. Metroid Prime: Hunters
Reason: Not my favorite genre (cause I suck at it) and still manages to be in my favorites, it has clear visuals, badass bosses and online multiplayer.

#13. Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis
Reason: More and better puzzles, colorful artwork, lots of replay value with level creator and wi-fi connection.

#12. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney
Reason: There's nothing like Ace Attorney in terms of story, investigation and overused quotes:P I just had to put it here, and am totally getting the sequels when they come to ipad xD.

#11. Golden Sun: Dark Dawn
Reason: Surprisingly one of the best RPGs I've played, easy but exciting combat, long story with many twists, great dungeons.

#10. Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword
Reason: Beautiful locations, cool characters, good use of 2 screens, (a little) easier than other Ninja Gaidens and exceptionally fun.

#09. Yoshi's Island DS
Reason: More Yoshis, more babies =/ and new levels with bosses that are all a blast to play.

Reason: Endless gameplay possibilities. Besides that, I've said too much about the series already.

#06. Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship 2007
Reason: Guilty pleasure that I forgot in my list 4 years ago. But it's really full of quality, a myriad of things to do and perfect online implementation.

Reason: It's the original N64 game with 4 characters and enough new features to make it stand out.

#04. New Super Mario Bros.
Reason: Almost a perfect update of the originals, featuring fantastic worlds and increasing difficulty, and some worthy extra content.

Hey everyone!

It's been a while since I wrote a blog, hope people still remember me:P

If you saw my previous entries, I was posting lists of Top games by console. My goal was to cover all systems by the end of last year, which of course didn't happen. And I'm sad to say I'm leaving GS very soon so I have no time to make all those big blogs and prediction games...

So I will rush the whole process and post a simple version of each list, starting with the 4 Nintendo systems I was missing.

First, here is a recap of the lists so far:

And now, my Top 30 Wii Games (so far):

#30. The Conduit
Reason: Great multiplayer, and a good attempt at something no one wanted to do for the Wii.

#29. SoulCalibur Legends
Reason: Nothing like the normal SC, but it was still a fun game for me, with some of the best characters and stages in the series.

#28. FIFA Soccer 08-12
Reason: While at first I hated the Wii controls in FIFA, I got used to them and realized that it's great to play with friends, and the Wii versions have a few modes the other consoles don't.

#27. Metroid: Other M
Reason: Good graphics, good controls and excellent gameplay in some parts.

#26. Excitebots: Trick Racing
Reason: Epic, crazy and different racing game with tons of content and nice overall design.

#25. Sonic Unleashed
Reason: Impressive sound and graphics, nice story and to be honest, I loved the werehog levels :D.

#24.Super Paper Mario
Reason: Interesting Mario RPG, although not the best of them.

#23. Need for Speed Carbon
Reason: Exciting street races and excellent gameplay overall.

#22. Sonic and the Secret Rings
Reason: Fast-paced Sonic game with well-designed levels and awesome multiplayer minigames.

#21. Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games
Reason: If I remember well, some sports were boring but others were a blast and you could play them in various forms. It also features a bunch of characters including Yoshi and Shadow :cool:.

#20. Mario Party 8
Reason: Same as every Mario Party, fun minigames, plenty of game modes and all the craziness of the Mario crew...

#19. Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games
Reason: Good visuals, more and more entertaining sports along with new fantasy events (or something like that).

#18. Wii Sports
Reason: A must have for Wii owners (literally:P) and a collection of 5 sports that are very enjoyable with family and friends and use the Wii controls very well.

#17. Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars
Reason: An exclusive 2D fighting game, great online, great character designs and wonderful battle system.

#16. WarioWare: Smooth Moves
Reason: It's like most WarioWare games, funny, simple and outstanding in almost every aspect.

#15. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
Reason: From what I played so far, it has a fantastic story, amazing soundtrack and a lengthy quest so it can still go up in my list.

#14. Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands
Reason: Well, it's a really fun and good-looking action game, inevitably one of my favorites.

#13. Red Steel 2
Reason: A pleasant surprise (for me at least), improving the first game in every way possible, with some of the best controls on the system, superb sword fighting and decent first-person shooting.

#12. Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition
Reason: The best horror adventure title, on the Wii. The story, settings, characters and action are incredible.

#11. New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Reason: Old-school Mario with new elements, Yoshi, perfect difficulty, good sound, multiplayer, Yoshi and brilliant level design.

#10. No More Heroes
Reason: Funny and unique title featuring badass characters, cool bosses and addictive combat.

#09. Wii Sports Resort
Reason: Seven more sports than the last one, 100% better controls, lots of things to do in each sport and a beautiful island setting make for an unbelievably simple but exciting game for all ages.

#08. Donkey Kong Country Returns
Reason: 2D platforming at its best, lots of variety, fine visuals, sound, control, length and characters.

#07. Punch-Out!!
Reason: Another cIassic series resurrected in the Wii, perfect combination of boxing and strategy, memorable fighters, challenge that keeps growing until the end, fun multiplayer, and more.

#06. Mario Strikers Charged
Reason: The best unrealistic sports game... by far. Not only is the presentation and single player experience worth it, but online modes add value and addictiveness.

#05. No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle
Reason: Because everything that NMH1 lacked was taken care of in this one with even more bosses to defeat, an even better story, more fantastic minigames, very awesome scenes and in-game action.

#04. Mario Kart Wii
Reason: My favorite Mario Kart thanks to the wii wheel, bikes, 12 players in a race, online features, all combined into an unforgettable game experience.

#03. Super Mario Galaxy
Reason: It's an almost perfect running and jumping adventure in space, I think all of you know that by now:P

#02. Super Mario Galaxy 2
Reason: Honestly, it was too hard to choose between the two Mario Galaxies. 2 is like an immense expansion to the first one with tons of new stuff and different elements... and Yoshi!

#01. Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Reason: Sweet graphics and animations, the best soundtrack you will ever find in a game, flawless controls with lots of options, the most iconic characters from each series, final smashes, story mode, trophies, demos of old games, online (which is the only part I think could have been better), and just too much quality and hours of fun, like a fighting game should be.

And now my 10 most loved GC titles...

---

#10. FIFA Street
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Developer: EA Canada
Genre: Sports
Year: 2005
This game is pure fantastic football. Featuring soccer gameplay unlike any other since, as the name says, it is street soccer. It's a shame it didn't get very good ratings because there is a lot to enjoy here. It's very easy to play like every other FIFA, and has cities from all over the world, characters that actually look similar to the real life players, as well as the ability to create and customize your own player. Rule the Street mode is excellent with friendly matches, tournaments and unlockable players in every city, and during the actual games you can perform many tricks and score incredible goals. It does get a bit repetitive but if you like the sport it is a very recommendable game (although it is outdated now, and the sequels are not as good imo).

#09. Kirby Air Ride
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: HAL Labs
Genre: Racing
Year: 2003
Another underrated game. Perhaps this was "different" from the normal Kirby titles and it may not be a great single player game, but I still found a lot of quality in it. Being from the same developer as Smash Bros Melee, the presentation, graphics and sound have many similarities with that game, which I think is a good point. The game itself has 3 fantastic modes: Air Ride is like the main game where you can race in full tracks against CPU/human opponents, Top Ride has smaller tracks in a top-down view that is perfect for a quick crazy game. And then there's City Trial, which is a completely different thing, up to 4 players are in a city and have to find power-ups and the best machine until time runs out, then they compete for first place in a random event, this was fine with computer opponents but if you could gather 3 friends it would be a blast, I spent hours just playing that. There are also many things to unlock, secrets, Kirby colors and more, but I already talked too much about this one.

#08. Pokemon Colosseum
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Genius Sonority
Genre: RPG
Year: 2004
Like Gale of Darkness, Colosseum took the Pokemon franchise to a whole new level on the GameCube. I believe it has a lot of merit for being the first Pokemon RPG with console graphics and features. The basic gameplay is quite easy and very pleasant, and has a phenomenal styIe. It's one of the few games I have played and completed more than once, mainly because of the great battle system with the different stadiums and opponents, plus a remarkable story and the very good idea of shadow pokemon. And like I said before, Nintendo really needs to do another game like this...

#07. Super Mario Strikers
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Next Level Games
Genre: Sports
Year: 2005
Super Mario Strikers was like SEGA Soccer Slam, but a few years later and with Nintendo's most important mascot, Next Level Games did a wonderful job and brought one of the top sports games of all time. Like many other games of my list, I had tons of fun playing it alone or with friends, since almost everyone loves soccer here and the game is so fast and addictive! It has enough cups to keep you entertained for a while and an option to create your tournament. It's also a very challenging game, especially the last difficulty that almost doesn't give you a chance. And well, the gameplay is incredibly fun with all the amazing goals you can score, the items, super strikes and of course hitting the rival players always felt so good XD.

#06. Mario Kart: Double Dash
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Nintendo
Genre: Racing
Year: 2003
There's no doubt Mario Kart defined the kart racing genre. All of its games are good and Double Dash is no exception. It features the usual Mario Kart gameplay along with new characters and courses, and some of my favorite things in a racing game like character specific items, all-cup tour and two players per vehicle. All of those add to make one of the best games on the system and a personal favorite for me.

#05. FIFA 07
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Developer: EA Canada
Genre: Sports
Year: 2006
Yes, another FIFA game! But I promise it's the last one. And it is definitely the best sports game on the system, sure there are better soccer titles now but if you played this one back then you may know why it's so high. The improvements were huge in every area, the ball control feels better than ever and there are lots of play possibilities while the controls are still very simple, sound is pretty cool too and it even has some of my favorite songs =0 The old modes like manager and tournament are fun and the new FIFA 07 Lounge mode was very original and worked perfectly. Overall, it's a fantastic game I enjoyed for a long time.

#04. Super Mario Sunshine
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Nintendo
Genre: 3D Platformer
Year: 2002
This, I think is an underappreciated Mario game. It plays like the other 3D platformers and has hours of fun. The setting is a pretty cool island, different to the usual Mario games, and it feels good to simply walk around it and discover all its secrets. But the actual game is about going to the different zones and getting all the shines (some of which are very challenging) and defeating Bowser. You also have FLUDD, which I really liked, and the awesome green dinosaur that actually appears in many colors in this game =D. The whole game is very entertaining, the artwork was impressive for 2002, and camera was improved a lot from Mario 64, making it a formidable 3D platformer.

#03. Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Intelligent Systems
Genre: RPG
Year: 2004
Nintendo certainly surprises me with each new Mario game, and TTYD, while it may look strange with the paper artwork, is a well-developed RPG for all ages. Featuring a lengthy adventure that might just be the best story of a Nintendo title, with some cool and humorous characters, and incredibly clear and colorful visuals for its time. The gameplay mechanics and battle system are also greatly implemented, and well, it's just very fun until the end. Even though I was never able to beat it because of some problem with my disc, it's one of the games that got me most into it and was a fantastic experience.

#02. Soul Calibur II
Publisher: Namco
Developer: Namco
Genre: Fighting
Year: 2003
Soul Calibur 2 is not only the best looking fighting game on the GC, but also the most addictive, those two things alone make it a superb videogame, and there is much more for it to stand out. Personally I have never played the first SC but I know it has some impressive ratings, and I think SC2 deserves just as much, from the amazing introduction to the very intense final battles, and the huge amount of game modes and content. It also features various badass characters and tons of different weapons, a Weapon Master mode that keeps you busy for a while with its good story, several challenges, dungeons and unlockables. Graphics are the best on the system, every stage is very detailed with stunning backgrounds, sound is flawless and music is excellent. Not to mention the fun multiplayer modes. Everything adds a bit to the outstanding gameplay, and I think I'm still forgetting other good aspects of this game .

#01. Super Smash Bros. Melee
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: HAL Labs
Genre: Fighting
Year: 2001
So you thought SC2 was the top fighting game of this list? Wrong =P After several days of thinking about it, I came to the conclusion that my top 2 GameCube games are of the fighting genre. But SSBM is different and extraordinary in its own way. Starting with the character roster that features all-time Nintendo icons and more than twice as many characters as the first Smash Bros. game. The gameplay is almost perfect, it never gets boring and becomes even more amusing in the different stages and with the crazy items, all of them coming from Nintendo videogames. The presentation is the best of any GC title, and the tournament mode, trophies, single player and multiplayer, everything was awesome. I simply can't find something better in the GameCube generation of gaming.

There it is, hope you liked this list as much as I enjoyed making it. I had planned to post at least another list this summer but my vacations already ended. So the next one will be in a while and I think it will be the Gameboy list first and i'll leave Wii for when Skyward Sword comes out.

#20. Sonic Heroes
Publisher: SEGA
Developer: Sonic Team
Genre: 3D Platformer
Year: 2004
One of the blue hedgehog's best appearances on consoles, and this may be unbelievable for some people, but I like Sonic Heroes better than the 2D Sonics. It's a magnific platform game with a lot of diversity in gameplay, many levels with colorful visuals, and 4 different teams and stories to play. Despite the controls being frustrating at times, it was possible to beat the game and it still left you wanting more, so you could go for another team:D. Each team has three characters that have to be used wisely for speed, power and flying. And while it has some of the worst characters in the series, there are also a few of my favorites like Shadow, Omega and Espio. So yeah, it's a pretty good Sonic title.

#19. Sonic Riders
Publisher: SEGA
Developer: Sonic Team
Genre: Racing
Year: 2006
Once again a Sonic title, this is perhaps my absolute favorite of the series, and it's not a platformer =0 In fact it is an exciting racing game. It has all the good and bad Sonic characters riding some skateboard things. And at first it is hard to get into it but after 4-5 races it gets very entertaining and there are lots of modes. Story is nothing special but still fun, just like the grand prix and other modes. All would put a good challenge along with nice graphics, music and multiplayer.

#18. Luigi's Mansion
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Nintendo
Genre: Action Adventure
Year: 2001
One of the biggest adventures with Luigi as the main character… Ok, it was the only Luigi game until 2012, and very short. However it's one of the best quality you can find for GameCube with the simple story where you must play as Luigi to save his brother in a big mansion. The gameplay is especially awesome, just capturing the ghosts is so fun and I remember playing a lot and beating it about four times. I do hope the 3D sequel is longer and just as enjoyable.

#17. Sega Soccer Slam
Publisher: SEGA
Developer: Black Box
Genre: Sports
Year: 2002
Back when there were few non-typical sports games, SEGA had, in my opinion, an exceptional game in Soccer Slam. Featuring six different teams to choose, each with funny characters and epic abilities, and a crazy gameplay styIe that make it fun to play at any time. The game also has a good multiplayer and various modes to play that any soccer fan would appreciate.

#16. FIFA Soccer 2005
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Developer: EA Canada
Genre: Sports
Year: 2004
Another FIFA game, this one has a special place for me because it was the first one to feature the mexican league with all its teams. But that was not the only great addition it had, things like create a player, create a tournament, and a vastly improved career mode made it the best sports videogame at the time. I believe some plays like free kicks and corners were never as good as in that game, and the overall gameplay is just right but there was still room for improvements especially in graphics and small details that were implemented in later entries of the series.

#15. FIFA World Cup: Germany 2006
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Developer: EA Canada
Genre: Sports
Year: 2006
Yet another futbol game! And what can be better than the world cup with all its greatness? But really, while I am a big soccer addict, these games are actually very well made, I mean it must take a lot of research to put so many teams and players with the correct stats, and then make the game so easy to play and hard to master. In addition to the world cup and tons of national teams, this game has a good amount of modes and stuff to unlock, and menus are incredibly easy to navigate. The only aspects that aren't so good imo are the graphics and sound effects, including commentators that made a lot of mistakes.

#14. F-Zero GX
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Amusement Vision
Genre: Racing
Year: 2003
F-Zero GX may be single most challenging racing game on earth. It was truly amazing with some of the best graphics and music of the time and incredibly responsive controls. And if you're like me and have a passion for competitive racing, there's no reason not to love this one, since it has 30 badass racers, 20 well-designed courses, a great sense of speed and that futuristic feeling that the series is known for. There is also a story mode, lots of unlockables and customization options that give it a good replay value. But like I said, this game is not easy at all, the last courses are a pain even in novice difficulty and just finishing them was a big achievement XD.

#13. Mario Party 5
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Hudson
Genre: Party
Year: 2003
This is one of the ultimate Mario Partys you can play. I do consider all the series fun, and #5 only added good things including excellent playable characters, some of the best boards and items ever, and plenty of new mini-games that use the GameCube features to the limit. The story mode is a great experience and the mini-game modes are simply amazing. I personally never stopped having fun with it and would highly recommend it as a very complete party game.

#12. Super Monkey Ball
Publisher: SEGA
Developer: Amusement Vision
Genre: Party
Year: 2001
Monkey Ball is another party game, but it is very different from MP. First there is the main game, which is a very unique and challenging adventure of… monkeys, inside balls, trying to get to the end of every level. I was never a fan of the idea, but when you play it you notice how fun and addicting it is. And then there are 3 incredible party games (monkey race, fight and target) plus 3 unlockable minigames, all of them work perfectly and make it a fantastic party game for everyone, and at least to me it was a very pleasant surprise at the time.

#11. WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Nintendo
Genre: Party
Year: 2004
The best mini-game collection series came back on the GameCube for its first appearance on a home console, and it came with more Wario, crazy characters, funny moments and of course, epic mini-games. What I really like is how simple each game is and how the difficulty can still increase so much, also being so easy to play for everyone, it has one of my favorite multiplayers ever, featuring many fun games to choose. Controls, graphics and sound are also good but not the best, it's mainly the fun factor that makes it so great.

TOP 10 COMING SOON...

PREDICTION CONTEST

And like I said before, the prediction contest is back again. I'm afraid I have no prize to give this time, but there's still the big one for the winner of the overall leaderboard (which Bzilla56 currently leads with 19 pts.)

Anyway, here are the rules:

To enter, leave a comment saying 5 games that you think will be in the top 10 and their positions. For each game you predict, you will get from 0 to 3 points:

If the game is not in the list = 0 Pts.
If the game is in the Top 10 = 1 Pt.
If the game is in the Top 5 = 2 Pts.
If you predict the exact position = 3 Pts. bak1234567890

Good luck to everyone who participates.

And I will give you a little hint, I own all of those games. And RE4 is not there since I have the Wii version ;)

The last part and prediction results will be up later. I still need to write descriptions for the top 3 games but that shouldn't take long...

And that's all. Thanks for reading and feel free to leave your comment/opinion/prediction entry below :D

Anyway, on to the list. (I kinda made the descriptions too long this time, but you don't have to read them unless you want to know the specific details)

---

#30. Donkey Kong Jungle Beat
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Nintendo
Genre: 2D Platformer
Year: 2005
For the second time my list begins with a DK game that I never owned, but always wanted. From what I played of Jungle Beat, it was one of the most unique platformers on GameCube. The bongo controls feel weird at first, and to be honest I don't want to play another game with them, but they worked really well in this and along with the awesome characters, graphics and sound make it a very recommendable game, even if it's number 30 of this list.

#29. FIFA Soccer 06
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Developer: EA Canada
Genre: Sports
Year: 2005
And here is the first soccer title of my top 30 GC games. This one was, in my opinion, a greatly improved Fifa, even though the graphics and sound were still not the best despite featuring good music. But what made it so special were the game modes and the significant amount of content, some of it new and even exclusive to this game. I remember playing it almost every Friday with friends:P making tournaments or just playing random matches. And the career mode was excellent as well, it sure made me addict to this game for little less than a year.

#28. Need for Speed: Underground
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Developer: Electronic Arts
Genre: Racing
Year: 2003
Underground was the first NFS game I played (well I don't remember if it was the XBOX version before, but I liked this one better). Back when kart racing was the best part of the genre, this game made a great exception. I do not remember the controls being very good, but when you master them it is such a fine gameplay experience, with pretty good graphics for the time, excellent sound and a variety of cars with different elements that add to the fun. A perfect title for anyone who likes realistic car racing on a console.

#27. Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Retro Studios
Genre: First-Person Shooter
Year: 2004
MP2 was the game that introduced me to the Metroid Prime series (and yeah, I still don't own the first one). At first it had a great impact in my gaming life, from the incredible looking boxart to that dark atmosphere and superb gameplay. Unfortunately I found the game too hard and got stuck at around the second boss:P That was a moment of frustration, but I still love this game and am now replaying it years later, it is undoubtedly one of the best First-Person games of all time.

#26. Crash Tag Team Racing
Publisher: Vivendi Games
Developer: Radical Entertainment
Genre: Racing
Year: 2005
This is one of the weirdest games I have ever played, it probably beats Mario Kart in craziness. Seriously, having all those characters and vehicles, and then being able to combine them in the race to form completely new cars is too crazy. But it also gives a bunch of possibilities for strategies in multiplayer. The story mode (don't remember how it was called) was a brilliant idea, the music and sound effects are excellent. Oh, and the loading screens… :p

#25. Mario Power Tennis
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Camelot
Genre: Sports
Year: 2004
The second Mario Tennis on a main Nintendo console. This is a fantastic and very accessible sports game. While the rules are very close to normal Tennis, it still allows for a lot of Mario madness. Featuring all the characters we know and love, and a selection of creative courses to play in, mixed with incredible gameplay and almost perfect controls. But my favorite part of it was definitely the tournaments and other game modes. There is just so much to do and there's also multiplayer which never gets boring with friends. The difficulty is very dynamic but overall easy. Also the addition of character specific power shots made it more fun. I belive it's a must-have for any Mario sports fan.

#24. Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Genius Sonority
Genre: RPG
Year: 2005
Pokemon XD, the second Pokemon role-playing game on the Cube. And what an epic game it was, using many familiar elements from the handheld games, but also featuring a great story along with some cool characters. I totally love the battle system and most locations in this game that look wonderful. I've always hoped for Nintendo to make a sequel on Wii, or maybe even Wii U.

#23. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Nintendo
Genre: Action Adventure
Year: 2003
Ok, I admit I didn't play this game so much, and it's not even close to my favorite Zeldas now. But it must be recognized as a great GameCube title, especially the final levels and epic boss battles. If my memory doesn't fail, it had some nice graphics (even though I prefer the realistic look) and controls were responsive. The story is ok too, but I think Nintendo can, and has done better with the series.

#22. Mario Party 4
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Hudson
Genre: Party
Year: 2002
This one is basically what the title says. A very complete party game featuring lots of game modes and elements from the Mario Bros. universe. While it was a hard challenge to make it as good as its N64 predecessors, Mario Party 4 had one of the greatest board game experiences along with amazing minigames and a satisfying story mode. But in the end it is just pure fun and I have great memories of it.

#21. Capcom vs. SNK 2 EO
Publisher: Capcom
Developer: Capcom
Genre: Fighting
Year: 2002
There is no doubt Capcom makes some of the best fighting games, and this wasn't the exception. Despite a few difficulties to control, it is well designed, and features most of the best fighters from both series. I didn't know even one of them at that time, but all looked cool and were fun to play with. The stages are great as well, and it's a good game to play with friends. I wish it would have had online:P.

TOP 20 COMING SOON...

And that is all for now. This blog took me hours to write due to GS glitches, I apologize if some are still there... Like I said, parts two and three with positions 20-11 and 10-1 will be up next week along with a prediction game.

And on another note, I have almost finished my Top 30 GameCube Games list (finally) so I will post the first part some time this week. The 2nd part would be up early next week with a prediction game, and a few days later I'll post the 3rd part with prediction results.

That is all for now, thanks for reading:D

Hey :D

I finally have time to write a blog again, and on a completely new computer:o Basically last week my laptop started to work weird and turn off at random moments, and I decided to buy a new one. Then I was offered a new Mac for a low price and couldn't resist to take it =P

I got almost everything i had in my old computer, plus three games. And it looks amazing, much better than my old laptop. The only problems are that I have no money now, and I cannot have ImageReady (no idea of how I got it before) so I have the 30 days version of PhotoShop and after that I'm back to designing with Gimp xD Also I'm not able to open my GameSpot PMs, but that might just be a glitch...

In other news, I have new downloadable games! I bought War Pinball HD, Braid and Bejeweled 3 all for Mac, And got 3D cIassics: Excitebike and Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again! (i missed this unique gameplay so much =o ) from the 3DS eShop. I may also get a couple more from virtual console this week.

And well, I'm out of school for now, so hopefully my GameSpot activity will increase. Been planning many things for my union, as well as the rest of my Top Game Lists that I will blog later.

That's all I want to say right now. Thanks for reading, and be sure to come back when I post my next list :P

Yeah

Like the blog title says, it's my 18th birthday today:D I am just posting this blog quickly, I won't be active on GS today and maybe the rest of the week, but I'll come back to answer comments in this and my last blog, and will get to work on my next Top Games List.

Well that's all, thanks for reading and see you all later:P
