What Are Your Top-Ten Games Of All Time?

    My Top Ten Games through-out my life time :

    1. GoldenEye, N64 - bond theme, excellent graphics and the best multiplayer
    2. GTA3, PS2 - violence, car chases, and good theme
    3. Mario64, N64 - still the best 3d playformer
    4. Mario Kart, Snes - in 1993 it had the best multiplayer ever
    5. Driver, PS - Big cities, Funny Crashes, and Great Graphics
    6. Age Of Empires2 TC, PC- my favourite online game
    7. Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, N64 - Classic RPG
    8. Street Fighter2, Arcade - Great characters, Special moves and lots of updates
    9. Mortal Kombat2, Arcade - Violence, Gore and Fatalaties
    10. Elite, PC- classic space exploring, trading and battles


    I think GoldenEye is in a league of its own. The likes of Halo or Max Payne are good but, they when you compare the level design, weapons characters or multiplayer they just dont come up to scratch.

    ....cough...splutter...halflife:generations...choke...

    you've put up only 2 pc games (and one's thats from donkeys years)

    you should try a lot of the pc recs from other posters, for fps spooky donkey has it pretty much covered...

    If you have a good pc at home Steve_Astn then i'd say pick up a copy of PCGAMER/PCZONE and look at their recs, some absolutly class games out there that you mightened have tried!
