The Top 25 Games for Xbox (by IGN)
I was looking for more games that I could talk about, but instead, I thought it would be better to talk about IGN's new top 25 games list, and give my opinion about it. So here it goes:25. Dead Space24. Lost Odyssey23. Dead Rising22. Shadow Complex21. NHL 1020. Moder Warfare 219. Virtua Fighter 5 Online18. Left 4 Dead17. Fifa 1016. Forza 315. Rock Band 214. Geometry Wars13. Borderlands12. Halo Wars11. Halo 3: ODST10. Gears of War9. Braid8. Bioshock7. The Orange Box6. Halo 35. GTA IV4. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion3. Fallout 32. Modern Warfare (COD4)1. Mass EffectGreat, so now time for a personal review. Frankly, I have never heard of some games (even though I am a quite big fan of video games and Xbox). Games such as Mass Effect, Braid, Geometry Wars, Borderlands, Shadow Complex, Dead Rising, Lost Odyssey and Dead Space. Still, from the movie that gave a little brief taste of the games... some of them are not my type. Games such as Dead Rising, The Orange Box and Left 4 Dead are zombie games, which I am not very fond of. Also, I think that IGN might be too fanatic about Halo. I mean, halo apears in the list three times, being that the only different thing between them is the gameplay. I think they had a lack of creativity.
Most of all, how could they lower so much MW2 (modern warfare 2)?? Borderlands from what I saw in the movie is a WORSE copy of it, and it is 7 positions ranked above than it. Maybe they think that it is hard (which it isn't), because of this quote from David Clayman, one of the reviewers from the site, "You might be able to plow through the majority of the missions in a few days, but collecting all 69 stars is nearly impossible. You'll play until your fingers are numb." Even though I got all the 69 stars in 2 days playing, along with Matheus.In general, IGN is a great site, I just think that humans are bound to make mistakes, mistakes such as putting a hockey game in the top 25's and forgetting about Gears of War 2 (which I believe is better than the first), PES 2009, and giving Braid (a mario arcade based-like game) a position in the Top 9. Braid looked a lot like a copy from the game "Super Mario" where one may find in one of those arcaic arcade game slots. Of course the graphics are better, but it seems somewhat basic. Like this:
I would also make some changes to the list... as to include Assasins Creed (number 1 and 2) in the places of the zombie type games. I would also trade positions the hockey game for the NBA 10 or 2k9, since basketball has a much bigger audience than hockey does.
