I'd like to make a little post about the games I think are the best through all time. Keep in mind this is personal preference.
10. Portal (PC)
Released on October 2007, this game really caught my interest. I had no idea this game was being developed until Valve released The Orange Box on Steam.
I have always loved puzzle games, so this game was right up my alley.
Not only was the puzzles itself very entertaining, but the story line, which continued from the Half Life series, was just plain awesome.
9. GoldenEye 007 (Nintendo 64)
Released in 1997, this game was THE game to play when having friends over. The multi player part was the best.
I remember we used to ban the golden gun from being used, simply because it was way too overpowered.
Who doesn't remember those remote mine fights?
8. Pokemon Stadium (Nintendo 64)
Pokemon Stadium....Where do I start? It was released in 2000 and I even play this game the day today, simply because its really addicting.
I remember the single player part of the game as really difficult (the part where you defeat the gyms), and I still can't beat them.
The multi player part however, is brilliant.
Ekans hurl hoop anyone?
Or how about some Clefairy, Clefairy?
7. Lego Racers (Nintendo 64)
Released in 1999, this is another game which focuses on competitive play. I prefer this over Mario Kart, because I really like the power-ups of this game.
Who doesn't remember this guy?
If you ever played through the whole game, you remember this track. Its the last track in the game, and the most challenging both in single player and in multi player.
Gather 1x green block and 3 white blocks for teleport!
6. Starcraft
YEAH! Starcraft!
Released in 1998, this is the best PC game I've ever played!
Having lan parties back in the day and playing Starcraft was simply awesome. Not only is the campaign section of the game great, with an awesome story-line, but the multi player had so many great custom maps!
To name a few:
Turret defense
Fastest map possible
Nazi defense (LOL)
Tank defense
Mass these and prepare for a shitstorm.
Part 2 coming soon.
