43. Halo 3
As a single player game, Halo 3 isn't anything special. As a co-op game, Halo 3 is fun as hell. I don't care for the story with Halo 3, but it was nice to finish the fight (unlike more recent entries), but what makes me like this game so much is how well made the game is and how balanced the gameplay is. Sticking friends online never gets old, and when your good enough to get people across the map, it can be hilarious. I love Halo 3 because it was a fun co-op game, it's simple, addictive, fun, and Master Cheif is pretty damn bad ass.
42. Uncharted 2
Normally I'm not a fan of the type of game where the main objective to to get some rare treasure, so I wan't expecting to like this when I played it. However traveling to Shemballa isn't such a terrible thing in this game. Nathan Drake is hilarious, I could play this game again just to hear his one liners, and the setting of the game changes so dramatically. Climbing a handing train, running up to the coach of a train and shooting down a helicopter, or actually climbing a giant statue to change mirrors all fell very different, and as a result the game never feels boring. You always have to go somewhere new. This game would rank higher, but the game can be buggy at time. One level I couldn't continue because the game wouldn't let me climb a pole and just to the next location, Nathan just wouldn't stick his arm out no matter where I positioned him. Also the idea of super powerful humans, hidden cities, and large temples with doors opened by reflected light just annoy me, it's just to unrealistic. Uncharted 2 feels like the new Indianna Jones, if they can make a new Uncharted more like the original Indianna Jones titles, then the Next uncharted will rank much higher on my list.
41. The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
This is my favorite Zelda game on my list. I just hate how Nintendo has ruined the franchise lately, I wish they kep the art style choice of Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, and I wish the story could be dark as it was here. Anyway, the reason I love Majora's Mask better then Ocarina of Time is because it's harder, and less confusing. I always know where to go, and challenges are designed to be hard in dungeon, not finding the dungeon. Majora's Mask is also one entry that veered away from the traditional path against Gannondorf. I like this, I loved the fierce deko mask, and the game itself had such a rich atmosphere. I felt sad for Link because he had to stay away from Hyrule so he wouldn't alter the events that take place in Ocarina of Time, and well yea. This game had a good story, great gameplay, and was one of the first 3D games where different locations actually felt different. Great use of music to set an errie environment.
TruckoSaurus Great games again. Smash Bros Melee and Mario Kart Wii also made my list, not much above you. Great choices.
MrT-Tar I'm also catching up, but you have some great games on your list. I never played Secret of Mana, but I've heard good things and it;s on my to do list. Paper Mario and XenoGears didn't make my top 50 mainly because I'm a Super Mario RPG fan and I haven't put enough hours into XenoGears to judge it. Majora's Mask is above, same spot as it is for you.
