@Nord and NinPanda

Ah... Banjo-Kazooie. Awesome game!

@Carl

Resident Evil 4... best of the series IMO. I'm just glad Kylie isn't in here to see it.

And RE4 isn't my highest rated RE



                            

@Cranky and Haxxiy (I always want to spell it Haxxity)

First off, I want to encourage discussion here. I want users to feel free to ask others why they put X game at the X position. I feel that this thread is a nice vacation from the usual sales discussion we always have here around VGChartz, and to instead talk about the games and what they mean to us.

So Cranky, I appreciate you trying to delve more into the reasonings Haxxiy had to put Uncharted where it is, but I feel you could have worded your question a little nicer. "I really don't think Uncharted is that innovative, but why do you think it is?" would have encouraged healthy discussion rather than having you two all grumpy at one another. And Haxxiy, if you feel like someone's challenging your opinion, I would love to hear you refute by giving your take on the game. Sure, "It's my list." works, but I would love to hear some discussion! This is what this thread is all about. I mean, I know we're all here because these games are important to us, so of course we want to talk about them! (Still bummed none of you guys wanted to talk about Heroes III...)

Anywho...

44. StarFox 64 (N64)
"Hey Einstein! I'm on your side!"
"Do a Barrel Roll!"
"Can't let you do that StarFox!"
Okay, so we all know that StarFox 64 has some of the coolest/cheesiest lines in the history of video games, but beyond the quotes, the game itself is incredibly fun, frantic, and simply wonderful to play. I mean, this was the first game to include the rumble pack, and once the rumbling began, we all knew that all was good in the land of video games. Actually feeling the explosions and the laser blasts was awesome to behold... and the game looked incredible to boot. Heck, I even remember when I finally realized that the robot Andross wasn't the real final boss, and that I had to find secrets in past levels to battle the true form. This game was full of secrets and surprises, and the bosses were big, bad, and fun to take down. To top it all off, multiplayer dog fights were incredibly fun, and allowed everyone to get going and play. Awesome game.

Discuss.

Aye, indeed it is. The same could be said about Star Fox 64. So what was your favorite level?

Mine's probably either Katina or Venom. (But only if you took the hard path.)

Ahhh, the memories. It was called Lylat Wars in the UK, but it was sooo awesome. I really wish they'd do a Starfox Wii. Like Goldeneye though, my memories are nearly completely of the 4-player multiplayer as I never had an N64. We'd have a few hours of Goldeneye then follow it up with some barrel rolling fun! I take it single player was good then? :P



There's been a fair amount of Banjo related goodness posted today, I wonder if there will be anymore soon... *smirks*

@Smeags, Star Fox 64 (Lylat Wars to me) is a great game, which is why it was #49 on my list...

I am tempted to quote you when I put a number to this game on my ranking.



@NinPanda

Oh I don't know... Katina never gets old. Especially after I watched Independence Day.

@Scoobes

The single player was fantastic! If you know of a guy who has a Wii, or if you have a Wii yourself, its only a download away!

@Milky Joe

There certainly has... I hope we'll see more soon. *smirks with Milky-Joe*

Also, I've been seeing a lot of Crash Bandicoots and Ratchet & Clanks too...

Also, does anyone remember this? Console Warz at their finest.



Oh my. That video. It's amazing. I even reposted that one on Facebook.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
