50. WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$ (gamecube)
Now you may be thinking, "WTF is a stupid port of a gba game doing here. This is supposed to be a list about good quality games." Well, I was dissapointed myself when I rented it too a found out it was just a port, but nintendo pulled a fast one on me and my friends a brought me one of the best home console party games I have ever played. Once you go hear someone yell "Piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzaaaaaaaaaaaaa" at the top of their lungs and then deciding wether to give them 9 or 10 claps for doing it is one of the funnest things i've done with my friends. It sucked that I only had to controllers, but see that yellow sticker on the box. Thank you animal crossing and my cousin that bought four swords. Bam!!!! two more controllers. This game brought weirdness to my house in the funnest way possible and it deserves to be on this list. :)
49.scott pilgrim vs. the world (ps3)
This game is just fun going back to what fun used to be. While new, it still packs a punch of awesomeness in each level. I never read the books or see the movie, but when I saw that an 8-bit style, movie tie in, beat-em-up was coming with music by anamanaguchi. Day. One. Download. Easily the best piece of fresh air in a while. Beat the game solo and was throughly enjoy. Beat the game with my friends and this game was pure joy. Easily the best 8-bit, movie tie in, beat-em-up I ever played (There needs to be more of these games made.) :)
48. Sonic CD (PC)
I'm more surprised at how close this game didn't even make it on this list but I'm so glad it did. I thought that this sonic was just fantastic, esspecially with the time travel mechanic changing the entire level you're in. The real reason I think i like this sonic the most is because of that awesome opening fmv and catchy song "song boom." It also had metal sonic as a bad ass and the race against him is just epic (unlike sonic heroes (ugg cant believe that game came out) .) More Sonic and less everyone else is just what makes this Sonic title great and definately worthy of being on this list. Sonic Booommm Sonic Boomm Sonic Boomm Sonic Booom. :)
47.Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando
To be honest peoples, I didn't play the original before I bought this game (hell I bought up your arsenal before I bought the original.) Though if you really didnt care about the back story the game was ok with that because it says screw youre home world we're taking you to an entire new galaxy in the first 2 minutes. This game was so funny that I would just you all my big explosion guns just to rush and get to the next cutscene. Though when you boil this down to its core game was mainly about 2 things: getting better guns and blowing shit up. and how you ask do you get better guns you say, well I'll tell you"BLOW SHIT UP!!!" this games one of my favorites of the ps2 and definately my favorite in the series.
Tangent: Thank god they changed rachets voice actor from the first game to and oh yea that next game of yours, yea I turned it into a sheep, a black sheep, that explodes, and BLOWS SHIT UPP!!!!!
46. Earthworm Jim (pc)
Talk about a classic character. In the early 90's this was the mascot that represented how weird and awesome a video game mascot can be. Every level was just filled with awesome levels from the junkyard you start in to hell to under the water to an outer space racing an evil chicken. There was always something weird and cool just around every corner. The level design and platorming were just groovy and I cant think of any reason why this game shouldn't be on my list. MMMMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! :)
45. Jurassic Park (arcade)
Wow, another movie game, might aswell spoil it now and say E.T. is number 1. Well you guys first need to go down to your local Chuck E. Cheese (mine closed down :*( ) and go and play this game before they take it out. This is easily my 2nd favorite movie tie-in game because it only focused on 2 things: make sure you dont get hit by dinosaurs or spit and tranq the giant T-rex in every stage. Playing with a friend and getting to the end is just on of those moments thats you need to experience to understand. This on- rail shooter is more than just an awesome game.You see that chair. The mexicans call it hydrolics. :)
44. Half-Life 2 (PC)
Oh the memories. I remember getting this game in the orange box and thinking that this would be one of the good games to play after Portal and Team Fortress 2. Damn how I underestimated this game before I played it. Easily one of the best PC games and shooters ever made. This (and the orange box) is what made me and my cousin fall in love with Valve. The story is just phenominal, the action is packed, and the gravity gun is still one of gaming greastest weapons of all time. I still don't know why they haven't announced Half-Life 3 yet (I've given up on the episode 3 announcement) but I'm gonna get a new compy for Portal 2 so I hope they announce it soon after. :)
43.The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks
past performences do not equal future results. This was one of the best kicks in the face I ever had and I'm glad I got this Zelda. I Bought Phantom Hourglass and while still fun, I felt that they made some bad game decisions (temple of the Ocean King, only ship control.) This game, however, took note of the problems and fixed them. I didn't like sailing in PH but I loved it in Wind Waker. In this game they managed to get back that great feeling of travel and exploration you love to have when traveling Hyrule. The dungeons and bosses were epic and the items were just as fun (sand wand FTW.) Even customizing your train and turning it into a cake was enjoyable. This is handsdown the best handheld zelda and is the first zelda games on this list. :)
42. Metal Slug X (arcade)
I never forget going out to dinner at my local Chuey's. I will always remember 3 thing from that place. It was always damn loud, you got oreos with your meal, and in the back they had awesome arcade games I could spend hours playing. The best one they had though was Metal Slug X. Damn. My sister and I could play that till our 2 dollars were gone (though see liked the claw machine (hell she was good too she once got 2 stuffed animals in 1 try.)) Even playing this game with total strangers was kick ass. Negociating who get rockets and who gets the lazer is fun aswell as accidently taking it and being yelled at. Every arcade no matter how small or big needs to have a metal slug game in it and since this is the only one I throughly played, this one makes it on the list. :)
41. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (PS3)
I don't think many people will have this game on their list but I don't see what all the hate is with this game. This game is one of the best game that have come out this generation. I got into the HD conoles late but just in time before this game came out and this game is what showed me what this current gen of games have become. I thought the single player campaign was fantastic, so much I beat it on veteran. The online multiplayer was so fun and diverse in new game modes (domination, seartch & destroy, Kill streaks) even when the online got filled with exploiters, it was still enjoyable. Though the star of the game wasn't the campaign or online multiplayer, it was getting a friend and doing all the spec ops missions. I don't think this game would have made the list if it wasn't for spec ops. Sitting with my cousin and getting almost every specs ops mission done(Damn you Snatch and Grab) on veteran is so much fun that words can not describe the joy of failing for 2 hours to finnally complete the mission on the last second. If you hate the game because of its multiplayer, I highly recommend you get a friend, get this game and enjoy one of the best experiences on consoles this generation. :)
40. Metroid Prime
I don't know why this game made it over Curruption since thats the only Prime that I beat but for some reason when I felt that I needed a shooter for my gamecube and saw this for $15 bucks I just grabbed it and said I'll put it in when a friend comes over. Stupid me when I found out that this game didn't have mutiplayer when I looked at the back of the box when I was on the ride home. I put it in when I got home and once I got to the insect queen I was already in love with this game. Then landing on Talon IV was like seeing the future of video games right in front of me. Going to different environmental zones, using different visors to kill enimies and bosses, scaning the crap out of everything, and getting power-ups everywhere. I don't know why I love this game but never finished it, I got like 2 artifacts and just couldn't care to get to the end (same thing almost happened in Corruption with the power cells.) This game I think will always be compared to Super Metroid to the best Metroid game and I know that Nintendo will do well with this series to make another great Metroid :)
P.S. I loved other M's gameplay though didn't care for the story that much.
39. No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle
To be quite honest here, I thought this game was supperior in almost every way to the original. It had better gameplay, got rid of the hub world, had better beam katanas, had better mini-games, seriously I cant believe this game isn't in my top 10, but the one huge problem that I had with this game was that for some reason I wasn't enticed by the story or most of the assassains that you had to kill in this game and for me, that is what made the first NMH a classic to me. This game has it all, but the problem is that the people you kill don't seem to be worth killing. Few bosses leave the impression that they were worth killing but the few that do are spectacular as hell. I playing as henry and shinobu was fun (exluding platforming.) I think the main reason I like this game so much is because I have the first NMH in such high regard. Once I beat the game, I felt a little dissapointed, but then I read an article on destructiod called "What No More Heroes 2 means to me" and it put so much of the game I didn't understand into a higher and more deeper context. I played the game on bitter after that and shockingly this game became something even more. I suggest everyone who wants to play this game read that article after you beat the game because it made me appreciate this game more than the face value that it deserves. :)
