I agree with WOW deserving the title more


WoW is not a real game,

  1. it's an online activity 
  2. a trivial time vampire
  3. it's what killed PC gaming as we knew it 
  4. it's the facebook of gaming
  5. an derivative online platform where a community essentialy tells Blizzard what to do

 

Just don't call that crap a game.


1 every game is an activity

2 yup every game is a time vampire

3 lol, pc gaming is not dead

4 facebook is the facebook of gaming

5 even if that were true, it apperantly works

don't patronize me sweetheart.

1) so is cycling 2) so is math 3) i said "as we knew it" learn to read 4) facebook was not built as a game 5) i will take that as an apology

wow is not a video game. it's an online activity that incorporates gaming elements


alright cool story...there is no point in arguing if u dont even consider it a video game lol. and dont call me sweetheart its creepy

Going to have to go with WoW for this one.



I agree with this. HL2 is one of the best games ever made. The attention to detail in a FPS is just unparalleled and when you combine that with the clever use of physics, great art direction, diverse weapons and enemies, strong atmosphere and a beautiful mix of environments you really have the full package.

From that list
Paper Mario TTYD
Metal gear 3

Lol why. A corridor crawl with a non-existent story line wins game of the decade? Halo did HL2 but better - the vehicles didn't handle like poop.

Are you confusing this game with something else?


The story of Half-Life 2. You wake up, shit's gone down, then travel from point A -> B -> C -> D and some chick gets an inexpliable crush on you. And you're being stalked by a dude in a suit. Story done.
And it is a corridor crawl most of the time. There is no lean mechanic and cover tends to be lacking in most places.



Congrats, I guess. Never the less I feel that the only, truly quality property to come out of Valve is Portal. HL 1 and 2 are IMO both overrated.
