Shadowrun is a pen and paper style game similar to Dungeons and Dragons; however, there have been quite a few games released utilizing the franchise’s cyberpunk, magic setting. The one I’ve played most is the first-person shooter from 2007. The game has unique mechanics for an FPS and requires a significant amount of teamwork, map…
The original Rogue Legacy was the second roguelike I ever played; the first was the legendary The Binding of Isaac. I recall Rogue Legacy being a fun side-scroller roguelike and playing it for hours on end. However, I whole heartedly believe its successor, Rogue Legacy 2, is a vast improvement and easily deserves a spot…
Traditionally, when talking about great years for gaming, 1998 is often referred to as the greatest year for gaming ever. A close look at 2010 showcases a gaming list (at the top level) that is as good, or nearly as good, as the legendary 1998 top ten best games’ list. 2010 brought us games in…
As we approach the end of the 2000s decade, we begin to see some of the most refined games from the PlayStation 3/Xbox 360 era. As always, we took off the list games with less than 20 reviews to their name, and games that had multiple versions on the list. We have removed versions…
2008 was a great year for gaming. Big titles from major franchises such as Metal Gear Solid and Grand Theft Auto arrived on “new” console hardware. For the first time in years, a JRPG managed to break into the top ten best games of the year. The game of the year was GTA IV,…

The bulk of these efforts has yet to pan out, but with 2023 ever drawing…

As we have done recently, the lower scoring version of a game that is featured twice or more on the list is removed to allow for other titles to enter. This time, PS3 versions of BioShock and COD4…
While the Xbox 360 arrived in 2005, its impressive next generation software did not hit stores until 2006. The year also saw the launch of the PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii, meaning a ‘new’ console generation had just begun. As usual, Sony’s system had an awful launch lineup, and thus, none of its games…
Deus Ex is one of the greatest first-person role-playing games I have ever experienced. The game made me love the futuristic, cyberpunk aesthetic. Its freedom of choice is legendary, and it offers a top-of-the-line story. Though the title is from the year 2000, Deus Ex is a strong competitor for the greatest FPS RPG ever…
2005 is here! It brings the last hurray of the short PS2, GC, and Xbox console cycle. In the home console space, the Xbox continued to dominate critical reception with its high-quality titles and superior rendition of multiplatform ports. The PlayStation 2 continued to punch above its pedestrian hardware specs by showcasing some impressive late…
