100 | So flawed it hurts but the closest we have to a good Lovecraft game... for now. | | -- | -- |
99 | A great horror themed game for Sega Genesis | | -- | -- |
98 | Hasn't aged well, but is worth looking into. Closest you could get to playing a real live DND session with friends. | | -- | -- |
97 | Decent strategy game, beautifully animated. | | | -- |
96 | A short "walking simulator" kind of game with a decent mystery and occult flavour. | | | -- |
95 | Very solid RPG, but gets monotonous. | | -- | -- |
94 | A very good Diablo clone. | | | -- |
93 | Fun top down sci-fi shooter with RPG mechanics. | | -- | -- |
92 | Interesting point and click adventure game about music. Kind of "dreamlike" | | -- | -- |
91 | Decent first person fantasy game. Was hoping more would come of it. | | -- | -- |
90 | Point and click adventure game with dark premise. Inspired by painters such as H.R. Giger and Beksinski. | | -- | -- |
89 | Great atmosphere and a topic of much discussion in certain gaming circles. Short, pleasant puzzle game. | | -- | -- |
88 | Sadly a very flawed game. It's story ranges from great to uninspired, it's characters are either very intriguing to boring, and the game play ranges from fun RPG to monotonous. There's no consistency. The sequel isn't much better. Great creature design and world building however. | | -- | -- |
87 | A weird RPG that blends the occult with 1913 real-time people and events. There's a few games in the series, but the original is worth checking out. | | -- | -- |
86 | One of my favorite fighting games of all time. | | -- | -- |
85 | First person beat'em up. Highly imaginative world. But, it's kind of clunky. Play it for the experience, but don't expect to walk away from it with anything more than a memorable and unique experience. | | | -- |
84 | A unique horror experience that relies heavily on audio recording analysis. Creepy and well executed, but flawed. | | -- | -- |
83 | I had a lot of fun with this game. Multiplayer was solid. | | -- | -- |
82 | Easy to learn but hard to master is the best way of describing it. Tons of fun. | | | -- |
81 | Not the greatest game, but a killer soundtrack. Not for everyone and it's false advertising killed it for many. | | -- | -- |
80 | My favorite in the series. Deeply flawed and easily exploited gameplay system aside, the more "realistic" (from a FF perspective at least) was more appealing to me than FF7. Not for everyone, but as someone who isn't a huge FF fan, this is my pick for the series. | | -- | -- |
79 | Soft spot for this God of War clone due to the nature of it's content. A very well done game that I feel does the source material justice. | | -- | -- |
78 | Didn't dislike this game as much as everyone else, thought the Batmobile parts were fine, and it expanded upon the mechanics of City. The whole Arkham Knight character controversy is understandable, and a little silly- but fits within the Arkham world mythos. | | | -- |
77 | Never was a fan of LOTR, but this game is an amazing open world experience with a neat "Nemesis" system. | | | -- |
76 | A fusion of Diablo and a modern FPS, comparable to Borderlands but with a more ridiculous premise and more vulgarity. One of the best games of 2016 IMO. | | | -- |
75 | A bit of a low point to end the series on, there should have been so much more. Somewhat satisfying storytelling wise but the gameplay leaves much to be desired. | | -- | -- |
74 | A great FPS, really good level design. | | | -- |
73 | Best in the series. Worth playing | | -- | -- |
72 | A lot of fun, but quite difficult. The controls are a bit tough to master. Great atmosphere and gripping story. Voice acting is a bit hit or miss. | | -- | -- |
71 | A very good modern "metroidvania" style game. | | | -- |
70 | Just as good as the original game. Nothing more, nothing less. | | | -- |
69 | Fantastic game. A solid successor to Half-Life 2. | | -- | -- |
68 | I enjoyed this game a lot when it first game out, the sequels are arguably "better" and have a formula that works, but when this game came out there wasn't an FPS with as much openness to it, really set the bar. | | -- | -- |
67 | First video game I recall owning. | | -- | -- |
66 | Enjoyed this game, but found it outdated when it was first released. | | | -- |
65 | While not a fan of the 3 releases for one game kind of deal, all 3 of the games were great. Multiplayer is kind of broken I find depending on which version of the game you play. | | -- | -- |
64 | A great FPS with horror elements. I think everyone remembers Alma fondly... | | -- | -- |
63 | The best 3D MK game, even better than MKX in my opinion. Hits me right in the nostalgia since it pays homage to MK 1-3. | | | -- |
62 | One of the first video games I played on a PC. | | | -- |
61 | Wasn't a fan of the other ones after they went from being a turn based RPG to a post-apocalyptic Skyrim, but this one is fantastic. | | | -- |
60 | My favourite XCOM game. | | | -- |
59 | Great game play and great storytelling. Ending falls a bit flat however. | | -- | -- |
58 | A good return for the game series, but short lived. Poor followups have put a nail in this series coffin I'm afraid. For fans of Castlevania. | | | -- |
57 | Best in the series. A prequel unlike any other. Has some of the best boss fights in the PS2 era of gaming. | | -- | -- |
56 | Best in the series in our opinion. | | | -- |
55 | Badass - 'nuff said. | | -- | -- |
54 | A great horror game, probably the best game set in the Alien mythos. | | | -- |
53 | One of my favourite beat-em ups. The character choices were great. Fond memories. | | -- | -- |
52 | Good comic book themed story and amazing gameplay. Improved on the original in every way. | | -- | -- |
51 | Addictive and very creative gameplay. | | | -- |
50 | A weird one, somewhere stuck between the first and the third as far as style goes. Game play is great and some very memorable boss fights are in this game. Great lead up into Witcher 3. | | -- | -- |
49 | Played the hell out of this when I was in high school. Some of the best multiplayer maps IMO. | | -- | -- |
48 | A unique gaming experience, great voice acting and atmosphere. Kind of a mix of an FPS and an adventure game with some unique mechanics involving light and darkness. Much better than the ho-hum rail shooter that is the sequel. | | -- | -- |
47 | A fantastic RPG. Product of the 2000's gaming tropes however. | | -- | -- |
46 | All the first Dawn of War games were great IMO, but this final expansion is the culmination of what the RTS was trying to achieve. | | -- | -- |
45 | See Sonic the Hedgehog 3. | | -- | -- |
44 | Improved on the sequel in every way. When coupled with Sonic & Knuckles, became a very unique experience. | | -- | -- |
43 | The original is great, but the sequel is worthy for it's expansive focus on furthering replay. | | | -- |
42 | Fantastic FPS/Stealth game - it comes with a remastered version of the original Escape from Butcher Bay which makes this the must-have version. Really would have wished for this to be a trilogy. | | -- | -- |
41 | The soundtrack, plot, voice acting and atmosphere are just perfect. A love letter to the 80s. | | | -- |
40 | Ridiculously tough, but tons of fun. Great soundtrack and atmosphere. | | -- | -- |
39 | Improves on the original in every way, varied game play and more killer music. | | | -- |
38 | Best in the series, despite recent controversies. | | | -- |
37 | Favorite in the series, I found this game to be the most balanced and loved the inclusion of the aliens as a playable race. | | -- | -- |
36 | A great horror game from the creators of Max Payne. Exploration is fun, and while the gun play gets a bit monotonous by the end, it's a solid horror romp. | | | -- |
35 | One of the best RTS of all time. | | -- | -- |
34 | Absolutely beautiful game with a compelling story and a great twist. | | | -- |
33 | Old school. Game changing. | | -- | -- |
32 | Absolutely classic. | | -- | -- |
31 | Classic multiplayer, but also amazing AI for the single player bots at the time. | | -- | -- |
30 | Haven't played a fighting game as much as this. I'm hooked. | | | -- |
29 | Best of the SNES/NES era of Castlevania IMO. | | -- | -- |
28 | Great game - arguably the best one in the series. | | -- | -- |
27 | Great story, decent turn based strategy game with some glaring flaws. The wild west setting has never been so much fun. | | | -- |
26 | A great sequel. More shooter than RPG this time around however. | | -- | -- |
25 | Fun first person puzzle game. | | -- | -- |
24 | Killer soundtrack, awesome "barebones" gameplay and story. One of the best modern FPS IMO. | | | -- |
23 | Pretty much a spiritual successor to Silent Hill in many ways, focusing on dread and mystery. Worth looking at, but quite a difficult game. | | | -- |
22 | They really can't top this one. Stealth gaming perfected. | | -- | -- |
21 | Film Noir in a third person shooter with fantastic bullet time gameplay. Great atmosphere and solid gameplay. The best in the series. | | -- | -- |
20 | A little underrated IMO due to the immense popularity of Unreal Tournament. Worth checking out, but is a bit long. | | -- | -- |
19 | Little bit of a no brainer. | | | -- |
18 | One of the first games I ever bought with my own money. | | -- | -- |
17 | Oh what could have been... what a hell of a teaser though. | | -- | -- |
16 | Improved upon the original in every way, the story is still suitably comic-booky and really caters to fans of the Batman mythos. | | -- | -- |
15 | Not as good as the original IMO, but a very good game nonetheless. | | -- | -- |
14 | Still waiting for HL3.... | | -- | -- |
13 | The weakest game in the series, but not a terrible game. For the lowest point in the series, it's quite a decent game. | | -- | -- |
12 | A tremendous sequel. A must play game for all FPS/RPG and Sci-Fi fans. | | -- | -- |
11 | The best in the series, insanely steep learning curve but once you get the flow right it's one of the most satisfying gaming experiences. | | -- | -- |
10 | A great PC RPG, hit some snags when it was first released but the "enhanced edition" is fantastic. Must play. | | -- | -- |
9 | Who knew a story about Androids could make you cry? Must play game. | | | -- |
8 | Like Zelda but with blood, and more mature themes. Insanely underrated. | | -- | -- |
7 | One of the best superhero games of all time, first time I played a video game and actually felt like a superhero. Captured what fans wanted in a Batman game. | | -- | -- |
6 | The greatest cyberpunk game ever made? Maybe until the new Cyberpunk game from the Witcher Devs comes out... | | -- | -- |
5 | Created the "Metroidvania" genre that so popular today. Great music and atmosphere. No Castlevania game has lived up to this one's grandeur. | | -- | -- |
4 | This game changed gaming as far as I'm concerned. It's a must play. | | | -- |
3 | Great storytelling, a high point in the series. | | -- | -- |
2 | One of the best videos games I've ever played. Great world building, memorable characters and lots of replayability. A great RPG. | | -- | -- |
1 | Influenced us to write our third release, a concept album titled Restless Dreams. A horror masterpiece. | | -- | 10 |
