I was about to mention Warhammer Space Marine. It got ignored, but it's a great game. More shootery, but getting up close for skull crushing was always great.

The best 3D brawlers (still trying to find a good name for this genre), in loose order:
Ninja Gaiden 2 (at the very top, probably)
Bayonetta
Revengeance
DMC4
Anarchy Reigns/Max Anarchy (underrated campaign)
DmC
And then everything else. I'm considering putting Dark Souls and Monster Hunter in this category, as they certainly have more in common with DMC or GOD HAND or whatever than Final Fantasy or Diablo or whatever, and the Musou games fit, too. Not that any Musou games would deserve to be on this list, lol.
I have Warband but haven't played it. I should.
The best third person shooters, in loose order:
Vanquish
Resident Evil 6
Binary Domain
Resident Evil 5
Gears of War
Uncharted 2
Stranglehold
Gears of War 3
...not too sure about that one, aside from liking the top games a bunch and liking the bottom games a good amount. Probably forgetting a bunch.
Regarding Ninja Gaiden, do you guys prefer the Ninja Gaiden Sigma games on PS3 or Ninja Gaiden Black/2 on 360? There seem to be key differences there.
Bayonetta, Vanquish, and MG:R are easily the best with the caveat that I haven't played DmC yet. I could classify the others all day but those are the standouts.
NG2 would make a nice fourth.
I haven't played the Sigma games myself but going by my time with NG3 and seeing videos of some of the shittier parts of Sigma and Sigma 2, I can assume I'd prefer Black/2 to Sigma/Sigma 2.Quote:

Sigma 2 is radically different from 2 though. Team Ninja built the game up with their NGS engine rather than port over the game. It has a lot less enemies on screen, reworked levels, etc. NG2 had some problems but most people feel S2 went too far in the opposite direction.
I honestly wasn't crazy for 2097. It's a significant step down from its predecessor in terms of variety and that kinda dampened the whole thing. I do have high hopes for 4, though.

That's an alright way to go. I personally played through Sigma on Vita.
