All correctly guessed :).
15- Age of Mythology
14- Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII
13- Dynasty Tactics 2
Been busy and on hiatus, but it is finally the weekend and a little bit more time. Here are my paragraph hints...
12- This game was originally a PS2 exclusive and is the start of a great series of games. Like game #13 it features tactical gameplay. The series most recent entry on the PS4 was one of the reasons I bothered to buy a PS4. Luckily for Switch owners, this game and its most recent entry also graced the system and hopefully factored in a few of their purchases.
11- While the first game was more action based, this game tried to mimic Pokemon with turn based combat. Except instead of it being 1v1, it was 3v3. Even capturing was similar with using certain items that increase the probability of capture. The more unique features were the odd dungeon crawling design and the level capping, without meeting certain conditions.
10- While not turn based combat like the first 10 games, this entry still features strategy in its gameplay. There are 6 characters and a few guest characters to join you, often when I got guest characters to join I would grind up my main 3 and my off team of 3 by doing the side quest hunts. While doing some of these side quests I would happen upon random bosses and after beating them, be able to summon them.

12- Disgaea
11- Digimon World 2 Unguessed
10- Final Fantasy XII
New hints:
9- This entry is the 4th game in this now long running series. It is like the 3rd game in this series but worse, and the 7th game in this series but better. A notable change from the 3rd game is the voice acting is more professional. One example is a general is voiced by Steven Blum, a famous voice actor for many games and anime series with credits like Spike in Cowboy Bebop, Tom from Toonami and Sub Zero in Mortal Kombat.
8- This is one of the most played games in the world, if not the most. Probably the most important game of the last decade.
7- This game features a character with a name based on an old greek society. While it is not the first in the series, it features a more robust campaign which features both humans and aliens.

Time for reveal, also had some time at work to write some love for them, will maybe have time later for the others.
11- Digimon World 2
A game very much unlike it`s predecessor. While as a kid I was very confused at first with how to deal with my digimon no longer getting any xp. I quickly found out I had to use items to capture more digimon and dna digivolve them together to create a new digimon. The digimon often digivolved in very unexpected ways, but it soon became obvious that there was an intricate system in place not unlike Persona games. As I went through the game and discovered more about the system I was addicted in finding the perfect combos as this was a 3v3 turn based JRPG. Having a fast guy able to heal or interrupt the enemy moves was valuable, and multihit skills were very important. My absolute favorite digimon was not even an important digimon in the tv series. Okuwamon hit all 3 enemies and and lowered all of their defense in one attack, while being ridiculously fast and strong.
9- Dynasty Warriors 4
This game was a continuation to one of my favorite games with more of the same greatness. But it was slightly worse due to being overall easier, and most characters had the exact same campaign within the kingdom with a little bit different starting positions. This game does feature a decent duel system and whenever you duel a tough rival they can get boosts just like you and be quite the challenge. The game also had different strategy, with morale becoming easier to control just by following history. The bodyguards were more specialized but their weren`t enough. The weapon and item system were also a bit more simple. More positives for the game is that the voice acting was professional and top notch with some of my favorites in the game. The siege weapons were more of a thing rather than completely forgotten in DW3. More characters than DW3 of course and although fodder fighting was a bit worse, I think the 1v1 officer fighting was on par or better.
8- League of Legends
This game I discovered pretty late along with my college roommate. The ads for the game made it seem like a pathetic browser game, but we were very wrong. The game features fast paced combat and strategy while you control 1 of 5 characters in 5v5 pvp/ My favorite champion was Pantheon, he looks like a spartan greek warrior and acts like one. Going in early like a man meant you completely destroyed them. His ultimate ability is a semi global ability in which he can traverse a third of the map almost instantly. By doing this you let them know you are coming so, sometimes I might go in 1v3 or worse like a true crazy warrior and try to outplay them (if I was fed enough). That was just one champion, and I played many more and enjoyed most of them. They all play differently and against different enemies gameplay is always different. It is quite the time sync, so eventually I had to have some self control and not play it, in order to enjoy other things in life. But one could legitimately just play this game and many people do.
7- Halo 2
While I often prefer single player games on console, this game was one of the exceptions. Playing this game`s campaign on co-op mode was an early pleasure of me and my buddies. We would rent this game for hundreds of dollars worth over the months and everytime we hung out to play through the campaign. At some point I wanted to beat the game on legendary, and in this game there are snipers that instant kill you no matter where they strike. It was one of my pleasures beating this game on legendary and meticulously taking out each enemy one by one. We found the multiplayer much later in the game, and we did not have Xbox Live, because who pays for that? (haha) Even so LAN parties were ridiculously fun whether it be just 3 or 4 of us. It only got boring when one of us got too good with certain weapons, so we had to spice it up by doing SMG only games or grenade only and etc. Without a doubt the best game on any Xbox system, and I am glad to have owned an Original Xbox.
