Best and Worst games of all time.

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Best and Worst games of all time.

OK, I am just curious. What do you people think are the best and the worst games of all time? When you answer, please list one or more reasons why you chose to put the game in the spotlight, see my example below.

Best game: Freelancer

+ Good Graphics
+ Lots of space for you to explore


Worst Game: AMF Bowling 2004

- Bad Graphics
- Horrible physics
- Atrocious voice acting
- This is supposed to be a pro bowling game, but the allys are always empty
- Bad character editor

Best game ever? Wow, that's really a tough one. There's a lot of awesome games out there. But since I have to choose, I'll take Call of Duty. It doesn't have the best graphics, but the gameplay and the immersion level are second to none. Fantastic production values, awesome music, voice acting, gameplay, everything. I love it.

Worst Game Ever: Daikatana. I don't need to say anymore.

Best Game, hmm, probably the entire Silent Hill Series but there are so many that i love, GTA series, Goldeneye, Tetris, Streets Of Rage series, FL Legend of Zelda - Majora's Mask just to many games that i love

+Good Graphics (even SH1 on PSone for its day)
+Deep, complex storyline that is still discussed today about SH1 storyline
+superb soundtrack

Worst Game, Conspiracies.

- THE worst voice acting and acting in ANY game EVER!
- Terrible Graphics
- Did i say how bad the voice acting was? Seriously it was enough to make my ears bleed

Although when Grand Theft Auto San Andreas comes out, this will probably change

Best: GTA games-good gaphics, storyline, music and creativity
Freelancer-Good story(except ending), great graphics and music is good
FF7- Story,music, and everything else is super!

Worst: Mall Tycoon--The graphics are horrible, the missions are boring and
and i gave up on it after an hour

Best game: um, DUNE 2!!!!! j/k. um, probably starlancer of the HL mod series.

Worst:
Street rod (none of you will have heard of this one), graphics were crap, no voices, and when you bet a high amount of money, the AI ALWAYS wins....

Best game? That's a toughie. There are way too many choices. Still, if I had to take one game onto a desert island it would probably be Deus Ex.

Worst game? Daikatana was pretty awful but nothing, absolutely nothing, compares with the utter crapfest that is The Mystery of the Nautilus (don't ask how I know)

I am just shocked. The only bad Grand Theft Auto game they ever made was on the N-Gage QD, where you had five weapons to choose from(Uzi, M4, Molotov Cocktail, Shotgun and Bazooka.) And it had the worst camera I have ever seen, it floats about forty feet above your character, there is no map, and you can't carjack anyone. What kind of crap is that? The ability to carjack people is the mainframe of the GTA series, and besides, where do you think they got the name Grand Theft Auto from? But so far, Vice City is the best GTA game out there, at least until San Andreas is released.

Umm... IBT, Natural Selection was a User Mad Modification. not a full game. And its GTA -4- Vice City, and Vice City was the pinnicle of the GTA series, and it plays similar to (an australian R) R-Rated movie, using the "so wrong its right" theory.

anyway, my votes.

Best Game(s):
System Shock 2.
Pros:
+Storyline was, wait IS one of the best avaliable
+SHODAN
+Great Voice Acting
+RPG style elements
+Awsome sound effects
Cons:
-Graphics aren't really up to scratch nowadays... (add the Rebirth pack however...)

Deus Ex
Pros:
+Storyline is one of the best, conspiricies, changing sides, twists and turns... magic
+Good Voice Acting
+RPG style elements in an FPS
+Great Atmosphere.
+Awsome Music
Cons:
+High difficulty level.
+Large Save file Size.

Worst Game(s):
Daikatana. No explination needed.

360 (PSX)
A wipout clone which was really really bad.

I have no #1 game anymore, it used to be half life when i played that and the mods pretty much all the time. SO:

Top Games:
Half Life
+ Natural Selection
+ Counterstrike
+ Day of Defeat
+ Team Fortress
- Too many assholes play it now

Operation Flashpoint
+ Go ANYWHERE non linear masterstroke, use your own mind of how to complete a mission.
+ Use ANYTHING non linear masterstroke #2, grab any vehicle or weapon if its going to help you
+ Build yourself more power from private to squad commander using simple team controls.
- Appauling physics engine, tanks used to bounce while standing still becase of imperfections in the floor.
- Graphics are now stupidly out of date.

Starlancer
+ Space hasnt looked that gorgeous since Homeworld
+ Teamwork built up you actually cared about your team-mates
- Except Moose....who was an idiot and needed to shut up.
+ Great storyline and exciting range of missions.
- Ended just when things were getting interesting.

Worst Games (that i've played, i've seen some ghastly games but never wanted to play them):

South Park (N64):
+ FPS
- FPS??? SOUTH FREAKING PARK???
- No Fun whatsoever, snowball fighting got old ultra quick, especially when its on an N64.

Terminator 3 (PC):
- Poor mans Battlefield 1942, the game had everything going for it but delivered the least fun experience ever. Trust game companies to be the worst people to know how to make a movie tie-in game good.

Spiderman 2 (PC):
- I actually installed this tripe, i had to buy a new hard drive to make it up the computer because you can never REALLY uninstall evil.
- LINEAR!!!!
