Re: Top 10 Games of the Generation
My list would probably be:
1. Fable II (surprised that's not on there)
2. Mass Effect (first one)
3. Halo 3
4. Assassin's Creed II
5. New Super Mario Bros Wii
6. Modern Warfare 2
7. Team Fortress 2 (although I guess the Orange Box would supersede this)
8. Twilight Princess
9. Dragon Age Origins
10. Pokemon SoulSilver (can we count handhelds?)
So yeah, I guess I mainly think Fable II and Dragon Age are the big ones that are missing. Although Dragon Age was really buggy and the story kind of disappointing in parts, so maybe it doesn't deserve to be on the list.
I would probably be willing to replace it after I get around to playing Mario Galaxy.
And Assassin's Creed II is just such an original, beautiful, fun game. Definitely deserves a spot on the list.
And I'm sure my opinion on Mass Effect is rare. I actually think Mass Effect 2 is probably the better game, better looking, and without the bad Mako missions (although mining was perhaps an even worse replacement). I enjoyed the first one more for two reasons:
1. The "main story" was more of a focus. I got tired of the recruit person/do loyalty mission pattern.
2. The areas of Mass Effect 1 felt less artificial. So many of the ME2 areas seem like they were designed just to be in a video game.
