Vote for Tomb Raider 1) Tomb Raider

Chicks and Action is a good mixture!

ResidentEvil54life

great to see that tomb raider is back in business worldwide. I thought it would take a while.. :D.. but I’m sure it will once again reach the top as is did the very first time it came out. TRU will definitely rock, more than any other PS§ game have done or will do... she will become for sure, the PS3 face just like she was the ps1s.

I can’t believe this isn’t on the list. Maybe I’m just too old.


Vote for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 2) The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

perfect story, perfect gameplay, perfect music, it owns

the6donof6chron

BEST game and amazing story

Julsnet

I have to give my vote for this over god of war, diablo, and smash brothers because it is simply a masterpiece. Tomb raider is pathetically holding the #1 spot for inexplicable reasons

Vote for Metal Gear 3) Metal Gear

Best Game Series Ever. I Mean The Story Is Better Than Most Hollywood Movies Just The Best, I Hope Metal Gear Will Never end.

copkiller

Lol is this a joke? MG is behind Final Fantasy, Legend of Zelda, and...Tomb Raider??

Battlegun

I cant believe it wasn’t even on the list" I cant think of many other games that could tell a story better than metal gear can. On top of that it completely established the genre of Stealth gameplay single handedly.
The game was also very ahead of its time as far as creativity I cant a think of another game that had as many genuine ideas from button tapping, switching control ports, to how creative they used the rumble feature. when at the time the playstation didn’t even come standard with rumble. the graphics were also very advanced for its time compared.
i think the only reason its not as nearly appreciated is because its very slow paced and is exclusive to the playstation.
the game was very unique in that it was not repetitive from basic gameplay to the boss battles, you were given the choice of how you would engage the opponent whether it be sneaking up on them and snapping there neck or just choking them till the pass out. what made the game great was the advanced AI and how it reacted to you in the game you could actually manipulate your enemy more than jus shooting a gun and make him notice you, you could lure him into other rooms buy tapping the wall or get him to follow footprints.

the game also featured one of the best voice acting I have ever heard it brings you so much more into the game making you really respect the character as if they were real.

truly an amazing game and should definitely be considered one of the greatest of all time!

Vote for Final Fantasy VII Final Fantasy VII 4) Final Fantasy VII

the first game that I actuly played seriously(i was only like 7 though). it was fun, exciting and lasted for many long hours of play. sure the graphics are bad, but the amazing gameplay makes up for it

lezakattack

Best ever.

CyraxQC

Greatest PS1 game, greatest RPG, and just too much awesomeness to put into words. Best game ever, but Ocarina of Time is excellent as well.

Vote for Halo 3 Halo 3 5) Halo 3

Halo 3 is the greatest game of all time. It has sold the most copies out of all games and still after around 2 years since its release it is still selling hugely.

Vote for Metroid Prime 20) Metroid Prime

Still the most highly detailed and high-tech game today, even though it was made back in 2003 (very impressive). While the game itself drives many players insane, the huge detail, design, and unbelievable gameplay make it worthy of the Top Ten.

Vote for Shenmue 21) Shenmue

Although without conclusion, this game was the first with open world gameplay & can hold up to anygame out today. The story is very immersive, the soundtrack is dreamy & the gameplay is an highly addictive rollercoater ride. All in all true classic greatness & definitely belongs on this list.

Vote for Super Smash Bros. Melee 22) Super Smash Bros. Melee

By far the most ingeniously developed multiplayer fighting game. With a blend of characters all across the Nintendo universe, and a nigh flawless fighting system, this game belongs on just about any top ten list.

Greatest game ever! A lot of weapons, moves, a gigantic world, great puzzles, awesome storyline, awesome 2d graphics and awesome music! Why is Tomb Raider #1? This game is a true masterpiece and it should be experienced by everyone!

loganruckmanman

59 games in and this one is yet to be added. You can thank me later. While Ocarina is a masterpiece in it’s own right, A Link to the Past laid the ground work for everything brilliant in a Zelda game, or any action/adventure game for that matter. Never before has a game brought me more joy than this title. Best game ever by a mile.

Vote for Fire Emblem 42) Fire Emblem

A true classic.

Vote for Max Payne 43) Max Payne

I still think that Max Payne made a connection to the players that no other game has managed to clone to date (maybe because no one has really tried cloning the storytelling of Max Payne, not even Max Payne 2). For one when it came it was the first game to ever feature 100 photo-realistic textures, and it introduced "bullet time" to the world. But what always captured me and made me consider Max Payne to be one of the greatest games ever made was never the bullet time or the (for it’s time) fancy graphics. No it was all about how I felt the characters were believable and I found the noir graphic novel style to work, very well. I really saw Max to be a tortured soul doing everything not to go insane. The question if he managed to stay sane or not is debatable especially after the somewhat forgiving beginning of the second game, but then again I am not nominating Max Payne 2.

Vote for Ys: The Oath in Felghana 83) Ys: The Oath in Felghana

Probably the most obscure title on the list by far, but certainly better than most of them. Incredible music, great gameplay, and a fun story make for a winner in my book.

Vote for Chrono Trigger 84) Chrono Trigger

Widely regarded as (and in my open is without a doubt) the best RPG of all time. It came out in 1995 with unprecedentedly good graphics, which even today are nothing to laugh at. The story is... well, AWESOME. Though, typically, it is slightly cheesy, it is obviously well thought out. It has many different time periods that you can go into and countless side-stories.
Another interesting feature is that the main character, Chrono (or whatever you choose to name him) never speaks without your prompting and decision on what he DOES say. He is, in effect, YOU. You choose how the adventure progresses across time; your actions determine what outcome will occur. There are THIRTEEN possible endings; that is not only unprecedented, but has not been rivaled to this day.
The action is great; it was one of the first RPGs to have battle on the main map; also, battle is not random, an annoying feature of most RPGs. Through a variety of special attacks, even combinations combining Chrono and whatever one or two companions he has with him at that time, Square made a game with GREAT combat. I could go on and on, but basically, go try this game out yourself!

There is time travel; great sound in all aspects; great graphics; great storyline; great combat; great replay value; great everything. 13/10 ;)

Videlectrix struck gold on this one. They make great games that are modern, but look classic, with 8-bit graphics and sound.
Peasant’s quest was a fun and hillarius satire of King’s Quest. The sarcastic comments made by the game are comedy at its best.
Definitely #1
