Forums - Sony - IGN's Top 25 PS3 Games (2012 Edition)

the inclusion of vanquish and high placement of infamous 2 is nice. It seems like there are still a few people out there who care about actual gameplay.

No Demon's Souls and Valkyria Chronicles at 22 = failed list for me.

Lotsa good games on that list I do agree should be there. But I can't let it go for the above 2 games.

Ignorant Gaming Network

 

Idiotic works too


hehehe. well ign definitely makes some dumb decisions, but I still find their site decent.

While I don't care for IGN in terms of gaming journalism, I tend to go there because their site is so easy to navigate, especially when compared to some of the other gaming sites.

I have played 24 out of the 25 games on that list...wow... list still sucks without Wipeout HD/Fury and flOwer though...


IGN does PSN games in a seperate top 25 list.

That suddenly explains a few things Thanks Jimmy.



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.


Xbox One: What are you doing Dave?

Lol looks like my taste has been approved by IGN since I own 23 of those 25 games, except Valkyria and Spec Ops. Btw: Spec Ops TL Top 25? WTF??

I also like how they put gems nobody played like Vanquish and Catherine, how they love the Infamous franchise and how they ignore MGS 4 :p

I would include Rayman Origins, Just Cause 2, Skyrim and Fifa 12 too...



Game of the year 2017 so far:

5. Resident Evil VII
4. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
3. Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
2. Horizon Zero Dawn
1. Super Mario Odyssey

I think they seriously forgot MGS4 considering it was very high all other years xP My top 5 would be something like

1) UC3
2) MGS4
3) UC2
4) GoW III
5) KZ2

:>



Stinky games like Resistence 3, Infamous 1&2 and Spec Ops are there but no Skyrim, Oblivion, Assassin's Creed II, Dragon Age, Dark Souls or Demon's Souls? lol this list is weak.

Man that's a terrible list, no MGS4? Uncharted 3 #1? LOL GTFO, Infamous 2 is 7th but it's not even a good game, why is God of War 3 on there?, why is a mediocre game like Resistnace 3 above things like GTAIV, RDR and Arkham Asylum?


Oh maybe, just maybe, God of War III is on there because it's one of the best games of all time? The most beloved, best selling and most acclaimed game in the genre of all time. You, as well as anyone who doesn't appreicate God of War III, obviously have appalling taste in games. 

I think this is IGN's worst list yet. 

Going by critics the top 25 PS3 games (exclusive) would be:

1. Uncharted 2
2. LittleBigPlanet
3. Metal Gears Solid 4
4. God of War III
5. Journey
6. LittleBigPlanet 2
7. Uncharted 3
8. Killzone 2
9. Demon Souls
10. Uncharted
11. Heavy Rain
12. Ratchet & Clank: ToD
13. Ratchet & Clank: ACiT
14. Wpeout HD
15. Flower
16. Valkyria Chronicles
17. Resistance 2
18. Resistance: FoM
19. Killzone 3
20. inFAMOUS
21. inFAMOUS 2
22. Gran Turismo 5
23. Resistance 3
24. Warhawk
25. ModNation Racers

That is a much more respectable list, however I'd put God of War III 1st because it's easily the best exclsuive this generation and the only Sony exclsuive I give a damn about. I will never undertand what the big deal with Uncharted is, Uncharted 2 was just about ok but overall the series consists of; dumb stories, poorly written characters, no artistic style, poor gunplay, poor platforming and a budget sounding OST. Same with Metal Gear solid 4, that game put me to sleep every time I tried to play it, It's so incredibly boring to play and just as dull to look at, also I've never experienced such a convoluted story before in my life. LittleBigPlanet is great, Heavy Rain is very good and everything else that I've played ranges from meh, ok and good.


My Top 25 PS3 Games:

1. Oblivion
2. Skyrim
3. Demon's Souls

22. BF: Bad Company 2
