Finally...The RedCafe Top 50 Video Games Of All Time - Brought to you by Duffy, not Duffer

[Olly Gunnar Solskjær]

Likely by the time you wake up the game was finished because your two companions killed everything. If you had slept a bit more they would have gone ans single handed destroy all the reapers.

That could be quite good TBH, since that'd the only way that game would get played again.

You were never going to like a game with no jump button Olly.

Roll doesn't cut it. AMIRITE?

That's probably quite accurate really

@Revan I played DA before Mass Effect. It appealed much more to me at the time. I only had a skeg at Mass Effect cos I was bored one summer. Jade Empire's alright, never really got into it. Not everything before EA was good, no, but things that have suffered post EA have suffered in a very stereotypically "post EA" way. A focus on looking like a good game, rather than being one.

Definitely. Mass Effect 3 was exactly that. On DA2 they didn't even tried to do that, it was basically a promising story with the same rehashed dungeon on the entire game.

 

[Ryan's Beard]

Yeh I avoided DA2 entirely. Filthy casuals.

 

[Eboue]

You are all the biggest nerds on here.

 

[Ryan's Beard]

Wow. Thanks Eboue you prick.

 

[nimic]

No, you're wrong @niMic . And you're the biggest nerd on here.

If I'm the biggest nerd, surely I'm also the biggest authority on video games that aren't CoD?

Check mate, mate.

 

[Bebe]

You lost the right to give opinions when you voted FF8 over FF6.

On a bit more serious and less cnutish note, how good is Lairs of The Shadow Broken? Arrival was as stupid as Mass Effect 3 but I heard good words about Lairs.

Lair of the Shadow Broker is absolutely excellent. So is Overlord.

 

[NM]

Mario should win. I don't care which one.

Considering Football manager only has minor improvements ever year, I feel like it would have been better just to have all the fm's as one and then as an overall ranking. Probably the same with Fifa or other sports games.

In the longterm sports games have obviously changed quite a bit. I enjoyed FIFA 98 much more than most other editions

That's the reason why I didn't include an FM game in my list.

 

[Mrs Smoker]

So far, terrible but expected.

Ride was nice though.

 

[Rooney in Paris]

The KOTOR debacle! I can imagine some of the fans having brain aneurisms when discovering it!

 

[ZDwyr]

I enjoy these list threads. I'll have to try and get involved in the next one.

 

[Siorac]

Polish does not a great game make. They looked nice. The UI on PCs was a miscarriage. The entire story was linear, choices were empty and meaningless other than the "set piece" choices which tended to force you into unnatural situations just so you could make a GAME CHANGING (tm) Decision. They were OK. The first one really shone when you were just bumming about the galaxy landing on planets with the MAKO. Something they decided to strip from later iterations. It could have been Dragon Age or Baldur's Gate in Space (i.e. it could have been as good as KotOR) but it screamed of AAA "Look at our shiny graphics and experience our set pieces" rather than "we made a good game". Meh

That was the worst thing about ME. Bumbling about in that stupid vehicle, discovering small bases with entirely identical layouts. You kill everyone in there, sidequest done, will to live broken.

The first Mass Effect shone when it came to its story and setting. But I could never ever convince myself to replay it because of the soul-destroying tedium of the Mako sidequests.

 

[Cina]

Shut up Revan, you're even more annoying in here than you were about Moyes. ME2 > ME1, facht.

 

[Revan]

If I'm the biggest nerd, surely I'm also the biggest authority on video games that aren't CoD?

Check mate, mate.

NO, you're the biggest COD nerd. So feel free to decide which one of those games is the best

 

[Revan]

Shut up Revan, you're even more annoying in here than you were about Moyes. ME2 > ME1, facht.

I was right one Moyes, I am right here too. Just wait until ME2 is sacked.

 

[Cina]

Most of us were right about Moyes, we just didn't act like PMSing teenagers for the last ten months.

 

[Siorac]

I act like that all the time, you should try it, it's great. Most people are too irritated by it to object to anything I do.

On another note, I'm going to replay Mass Effect 2 because of you cnuts. Shame on you.

 

[Melvyn]

Every time Mass Effect comes into discussion, the thread inevitably descends into shiteness.

 

[Cina]

Every time Revan comes into a discussion, you mean.

 

[Siorac]

Every time Mass Effect comes into discussion, the thread inevitably descends into shiteness.

No, it's only because we allowed a Chelsea fan to do the counting. It's all duffey's fault.

 

[Redlambs]

Oblivion and GTA5 in the middle there?

I want to shoot each and every one of you.

 

[Melvyn]

We should all just agree that ME3 was the best. Saves the bickering.

You get first bullet.

 

[Dirty Schwein]

Cant believe Link To The Past is that low on the list. One of the best RPGs I have ever played

 

[Duffy]

Think we need some other controversy to get away from this Mass Effect argument. Numbers 20-11 coming up, the top 10 countdown this evening.

 

[Melvyn]

You get first bullet.

• Xbox One: Master Race
• Witcher series is overrated
• FF13 was enjoyable
• ME3 ending was fine

Am I doing this right?

I loved it too, but only included one game per series on my list

in hindsight maybe I shouldnt have done that

 

[Randall Flagg]

I reckon I could beat anyone here is streetfighter 2

 

[SmashedHombre]

If ME2 comes out ahead of ME1 we're never having a top 50 list ever again until all candidates have been clinicallyy screened and passed appropriate fit for purpose tests.

WoW needs no explanation as to why it's on the list.

 

[Cina]

WoW is the CoD of MMO's.
