Re: Game of the Decade
Then you clearly haven't played the games yet. =) LOTR BFME was VERY innovative for an RTS at the time.-Prometheus- wrote:@Siemens: For me to give my vote to any movie title it has to be one hell of a game. The last movie game I played was Power Rangers. Since then I've been completely disinterested as it seems like they are just milking the title without putting much into the game to make it great. LOTR may be great but it just looks like another repackaged Dark Reign/Warcraft without much originality.
In the end I think the game most played will get the most votes and not the best game.

Both had an average of more than 80 and that is saying a lot for a movie based game.

1. Stronghold (first game that really got me hooked to RTS)

3. Unreal Tournament 04 (Great laning memories)
4. Warcraft 3
5. Plants vs Zombies

Re: Game of the Decade
It seems like there are going to be a lot of ties. Can I suggest that in the case of a tie that the game which had the the higher metacritic rating gets preference?

Holy crapper dude, is it THAT long already?jamin_za wrote:Not from the last decade, or it would have been my #1 choice - 1998Sojourn wrote:4. Starcraft - original first release, revolutionised RTS for lans
I actually played through the whole original series to get up-to-date with the storyline, in anticipation of the new release.
It does not feel like more than a decade ago... frankly that should be enough to have it included.
In fact, if other people can squeeze past to get Diablo III included, then this should pass based on longevity.

Re: Game of the Decade
So the point of a game called FEAR is not about being scared?D3PART3D wrote:Go play F.E.A.R. again, because if it's the scares you remember you must only have been semi-conscious while playing the game. Horror. Was. Not. The. Freaking. Point.
My votes (not in order):
1. Deus Ex
2. WoW
4. Doom 3
5. Tekken 4
6. God of War
7. Final Fantasy 8
8. CoD (1st one because it started it all, but I have enjoyed all of them except World at War)
My votes go to games that have held my attention for more than the first couple of levels, and in which I was more than a little immersed.

Re: Game of the Decade
That was of course Monolith's intention, but they failed horribly if you ask me. The spooky bits created great atmosphere, but it was the combat set your pulse racing. There were two excellent bits involving Alma popping up when you least expected her, but Jack-in-the-box scares are so utterly lame (I'm looking at you especially, iD Software ). The last level of FEAR was scary enough I guess.GreyWolf wrote:So the point of a game called FEAR is not about being scared?
Go play one of the earlier Silent Hill games and then see if you think FEAR's horror can compare. It just doesn't.
I would most certainly have voted for FF8... if it had been released this decade.

Re: Game of the Decade
I'm busy with FEAR Perseus Mandate expansion and there was one scene that made me poop bricks. someone leads you behind a corner then theres no one there then when you turn around he is in your face.
And no a 1998 game wont be counted sorry. You can make that game of the previous decade

Re: Game of the Decade
Monolith does get some credit, for fear it is their first somebody game, every thing before fear was C rated....

Re: Game of the Decade
Okay sure, I could imagine experiencing the game your way. Perhaps I've just been desensitized, we both agree it's a great game.-Prometheus- wrote:I don't think they failed. The point was not to make it more "fear"ful but rather different. Without giving too much away, after a while you would expect nothing to happen and then it does. There were other scarier games which I haven't played through yet for that reason (don't laugh) but FEAR was more unexpected and setting the atmosphere and not up in your face.
And no worries, Silent Hill has sent braver men running to their mommies.
@Wiz - True. How were their previous games in any case?
