Now that I find ridiculous, Bioshock may be a great game but it isn't even close to the top 5 much less the top 10!


This is just based on average reviews. Their number one is Ocarina of Time, which I find laughable.

This thread is getting dangerous. I better skedaddle!

Though I will say this: I'm sure Irrational entertainmebnt deserve the success. From what I hear System Shock 2 was a great game as well and really ahead of its time. It's nice to see that the rest of the world has finally caught up to Irrational Entertainment and they're finally getting the respect they deserve.

Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

It's not Miyamoto related but . . . Super Metroid =O

(Mario 64, ALttP, and SMB3 are far better games than OoT IMHO so I agree with those above).

Super Mario 64
Super Mario World > Super Mario 3
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
Link to the Past
Star Fox 64
OoT

I would say that Super Mario World 3: Yoshi's Island is the BEST 2D platformer ever created...but I would rank World above it in Best games because it is more traditional and pure Mario.

Zero Punctuation:  Bioshock Review

A pretty hilarious four-minute review of Bioshock.
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

Ah the Deus Ex maneuver.... Max Payne is a classic too. Okay, those are all good games you got listed there, and Killer7 had the definitive edtion on the Cube. Still, your Ninteno fanboy license is subject to a 60 day probation. THEM'S THE RULES

I likewise agree with his review. The game was great and all, Deus Ex was such a better FPSRPG and had a deeper story and better RPG elements.

While opining on the GTA development cycle, Zelnick said, "I would say probably roughly an every three year [release] schedule would be optimal. ... I expect we would apply roughly the same strategy to BioShock, because BioShock is shaping up to be a very important franchise. I don't was to say more than that about BioShock because I certainly don't want to jinx it, but I feel awfully good about where that is going."

Why don't people rag on Microsoft more for pc games being dumbed down for the xbox again and again.  Off the top of my head I can think of a ton of pc series that have had all (or many of) the "hardcore" elements taken away.  Bioshock seems to be one,  Oblivion, Deus Ex,  Mechwarrior seems to have disappeared after MechAssault came out, and Crimson Skies apparently had a flight sim like game on the pc although I did like Crimson Skies.  Rainbow 6 has also been gutted of the realism it used to have so much that they even have a third person view that lets you see around corners without actually poking your head out.  I know theres more I just haven't played them.  Did Command and Conquer change because of the xbox version?

I haven't played Bioshock so this isn't an attack on the the game but the trend that it is following.
