Eurogamer's Games of the Generation

[NeoZeedeater]

You're right. Looking at the picks again, bad isn't the word I would use. I forgot some of the stuff that made the honourable mentions. I probably complained about the lack of System Shock 2 votes, though. And if we did a last gen list again, I would be fighting to have Planescape: Torment included.

Journey is every bit as good as Portal. Come at me.

Absolutely. It deserves every accolade it's been given.

That being said, anyone that calls a game a "life altering experience" needs to get out more.

Since it seems folks feel a collective list would be hi-hum, maybe TNL can it's own 'Games of the Generation' articles...?

I always forget that VVVVVV is the true GOTG. Let's make it official: VVVVVV, GOTG

If each one of us took a game we feel really strongly about and wrote an article about it, it would be pretty neato. I want to read about Korly's adoration for Tekken Tag Tournament 2.

Trying to aggregate the lists in the thread we had recently is a waste of time. I mean, I'm pretty sure my top two games aren't on anyone else's list. But what do I have scattered throughout it? Skyrim, Red Dead Redemption, Mass Effect 2, Team Fortress 2. All mass-market games with super-wide appeal and a number of flaws stemming directly from the deliberate decision to cater to as many people as possible.

I will put crusader kings ii at the top of my list, just for you bvork.

[Yoshi]

The Last of Us is number five.

Sad that none of Eurogamer's picks emphasize gameplay as their main hook. I'll be interested what else makes the rest since I have some respect for the site. But for now; puzzle FPS, open world game, art game (never played), open world game and cinematic game has my balls in a knot.

I think Portal emphasizes gameplay.
