Weirdly enough it was Goldeneye I was thinking of, I love Goldeneye 007 and still play it, but that is almost purely due to nostalgia. Aye it's not aged well at all. Thing is I was never a massive fan of it at the time. It was probably the best FPS out for consoles back then, but there were far better ones out for the PC even then. Similar to how Halo is viewed.

There was also a weird sequel called Secret of Evermore that was really good as well. Mana, Evermore and Chrono Trigger were the absolute nuts and still hold up today. Of course, since we're talking about the zenith of 16 bit RPG greatness, the correct answer is of course Earthbound. A game I can't believe I've left off my top 10.

GiGi Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 There's going to be some shite in the top 10 eh? Fun thread though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've missed out Champ Man 01/02 Metal Gear Solid (#1) CM 01/02 would have been my number 4. I did think about MGS, but MGS3 is the best of the series, and it's already been out. You're probably right though that the first one will be there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunning1874 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Since we're into the predictions stage, we've not had a GTA out yet. I'd have thought Vice City, San Andreas, IV & V were all certain to feature somewhere, with Vice City & San Andreas most likely to be in the top 10, but all in the top 20?

1320Lichtie Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Is voting closed???If it is here's mine anyway 1. Gta San Andreas - no competition 2. Gta Vice City - just too good to put any further down some of my childhood memories on these 2 games..!! Unreal3. Gta 5 - now I know it's poor having a top 3 consisting of GTA but genuinely the way I feel 4. PES 4 - best football game ever IMO 5. Call of Duty WaW - best ever shooter6. Bully - class, especially when I was in school playing it7. Mafia 2 - love the genre. Loved godfather and scarface too but not top 10 8. LA Noire - lacked depth but I loved the idea of it, wish they could bring out one on the newer consoles, could be brilliant 9. Twisted Metal - what a game, driving about around Paris etc smashing everyone with weapons on your car, ps1 favourite 10. Urban Chaos - can't even remember what happened properly but know I used to love it, ps1 game where you were polis and done training etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saigon Raider Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 La Noire in any top 10 apart from a most disappointing list is bizarre. Genuinely enjoyed it for around 20 minutes, then it became a massive drag - didn't even finish it - shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 La Noire in any top 10 apart from a most disappointing list is bizarre. Genuinely enjoyed it for around 20 minutes, then it became a massive drag - didn't even finish it - shite. And yeah sort of understand that, just the genre and type of game it was though. Wee bit different and I absolutely loved the homicide bit of it. Fell away a bit after it went on to the narcotics part but right up my street which is why I put it in. Na mate I've just been releasing results for a week while votes still drop in. Sort of knew. I'd had it typed out ages ago I think but never posted. Still showed when I came on thread, just wanted to put mine out there. Eta: actually thought it was 20!!! Only seen Zelda, I'll need to go back and catch up. An updated list after every post would be good, or am I getting a bit cheeky here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Skyrim and The Last of Us will make it into the top 10, too. Have we had any current gen games yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamaldo Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 None of my top 10 have been mentioned yet. I'd be amazed if the majority of them weren't though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 FWIW This is Football 2003, is the best footballing game theres ever been. Only game that'll likely ever have Arbroath on it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dindeleux Posted December 21, 2016 Author Share Posted December 21, 2016 PIE AND BOVRIL 50 Greatest Games of All Time 19th placeSuper Mario Kart It had to appear at some point on our list and rocking in at number 19 is Mario Kart. A few of you will be surprised that it is this low down the list but pretty much every game to come will be highly rated by everyone. We have very few ties in our top 19 so almost every game sits alone.Released back in 1992 Super Mario Kart followed on from the success of the Super Mario Bros games of the NES and SNES. Coming out on the Super Nintendo (possibly the greatest console ever? I had a Mega Drive as earlier mentioned but the SNES was superb for it's time) this is a racing game that had both single and multiplayer modes. The multiplayer mode, in my opinion, was fantastic in terms of its playability but also how well set up the split screen was. At the time (and since) a lot of racing games could be quite difficult to play on split screen but due to the look of the game it didn't seem to be an issue on Mario Kart.Super Mario Kart was so good that it was able to step away from the standard Mario games and launch its own franchise effectively with many follow up games and products off the back of the original.I mean, just look at it Super Mario Kart sold 9 million copies based on just the original game and with various DS, Wii and N64 games the series has been a great success. Super Mario Kart is ranked as one of the greatest games of all time and is given reviews online between 9/10 and 10/10. A superb pick up and play game and given 31 points on the poll, coming in at:2 x 3rd place1 x 4th place1 x 5th place 1 x 9th place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francesc Fabregas Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 LA Noire had some pretty amazing moments in it, especially the interrogation scenes, but it was boring in parts, especially the driving sections. The city was absolutely enormous and looked gorgeous but there was nothing really to do beyond the major missions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
