BS BS BS.
Completed HL2 a few weeks ago. It's just not a good game. It's a generic corridor crawl with bugger all story, bugger all tactics, and the only good parts are the last two levels because of a)Seeing the inside of the Combine HQ b)The all-new-and-improved Gravity Gun.
Halo was made in 2000 and a far, far more influential game than HL2 ever was.
Also what about other genre defying games such as Devil May Cry, God of War, Soul Caliber 2, Call of Duty, Unreal Tournament, Perfect Dark etc?
What a god-awful pile of crap to pick as being the best of the decade.

Then again their choices for the best films for the decade can be described as malignant to the art of film making, missing films such as Gladiator, The Departed, Broke Back Mountain, Last King of Scotland, Downfall etc.

Come on, I know you disagree but calling those games crap? I think its too much.

yeah you are right, SotC is probably one of the best games, if not possibly the best, I've ever played, as well as KotoR, and GTA3 being defining games of their generation.

I just think it could have nodded more towards the genre defying games like Gears of War, God of War, Devil May Cry etc, but that'd have let to having make a few trade offs with some games, but I think people would agree Vice City should be up there, not GTA3 =p
