Challenge for us escapists, let's make a list of every good game this gen!

[shadow_Fox81]

Limo-because it shows how much you can do with very little (something all game design can benefit from)
Bioshock- because it shows maturity and careful design with ambitous art can sell well.

also i call bullshit on the whole no Pc thing because that almost entirely removes entire genres and a thriving indie comunity.

that said.

Amnesia the dark descent- because its mature, inspired, compelling, thought provoking and above all forces strong emotive responses entirely through gameplay.

I shall have to say:

-Splatterhouse

-Armoured Core 4

-Duke Nukem: Forever (I don't care what anyone says, the demo alone has made me want to go out and get it...if I had the money avaliable)

You are aware that after enough posts we're either going to have people repeating each other or we're gonna run out of games to list.

 

[Kae]

Half Life 2, Team Fortress 2 and Little Big Planet.
Also

I'm bored , so i came up with this idea,let's name every good game that came out this gen( i know 'good' is subjective , but let's try anyways ).

So here are the rules :

1)Post 3 games from this current generation ( wii ,xbox 360 and ps3 only , no pc or handhelds plz )

Why no PC? I really don't get why not.

 

[Signa]

Call of Duty: Black ops
Madden '11
Halo: Reach
/troll


My list is empty. Bioshock is the only game that deserves a nod really. I suppose Borderlands is worth noticing as well. I couldn't count Portal because I consider that a PC game, because that's how Valve is.


Ninja Edit: Ok, I looked at my Steam list hoping to find that one game that I forgot about, but they are all PC games, from PC devs, or just shit.

Final Fantasy XIII
Vanquish
Metroid Prime 3

Vanquish is the second best shooting game I have ever played in my life, someone had already beat me to Deus Ex Human Revolution. So Vanquish gets my reconistion

And now for some smaller titles...

Bastion - Story and Gameplay meshed seamlessly? FINALLY???? TAKE MY 15 DOLLARS AND GIMME!
From Dust - Short, Sweet, Challenging. It goes from a God Game to a Survival Game, a total opposite-genre sweep.
Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet - An awesome name for an awesome Metroid game

-Chillz

 

[JoesshittyOs]

Call of Duty 4

Assassin's Creed

ehhh..... Bioshock.

 

[mireko]

Valkyria Chronicles - Tight gameplay mechanics, beautiful watercolor style and a fun (albeit very cheesy) story with a great cast.

Resonance of Fate

Tales of Vesperia

(you guys were quick to snatch up the others)

Half Life 2, Team Fortress 2 and Little Big Planet.

If I had to guess, could it be because the PC doesn't have "generations"?

 

[StorytellingIsAMust]

Batman Arkham Asylum
Assassin's Creed
Portal

 

[teisjm]

LoZ:TP (i know it's also avalible on GC, but made for Wii as far as i know)
BF:BC2 (dunno if it's good onconsole, played on PC but it's avalible for them as well)
Mario Galaxy

Sorry, haven't played any good PS3 games that haven't already been mentioned

...
I found that Infamous just really worked as a game. There was nothing terribly spectacular about any element of it but as a whole it worked as a nice flawless experience. I was quite surprised when I played it, as I wasn't expecting much but I would definitely recommend it to everyone.

Same here, i've restrained myself from getting the sequel, in order to leave in on my wish-list for my birthday, can't wait to play it though, the first was excactly as you describe it.

Also, here's a virtual slap, for stealing what i was gonna post. Damn ninja.
