Well deserved.

WOW on nr 1? Trying to stir up some controversy, are we?

Didn't Arcanum come out in the 2000's?  You could fuck a sheep in that game. That alone should have made it on the list.

Pretty damn good. I assume it means games played within the first decade of this century, not the century or millenium. In which case, very deserving I say, especially given how open it is to modding.

1st and 2nd places are a joke though.

That screen shot is awesome.

You are never going to create a top 25 list that will please everyone.  Would I have put WoW in my top 1 spot? No. But I understand why it would be chosen.  And I see why Bioshock is number 2, I would have that in my top 25, I loved that game and I all but never play first person shooter games.  Over all, I think it was a good list.  As for MMO games, the only one I played for more than a few months, was COH.  Loved that game.  I was always meant to be a superhero...

Woot Sins!

As for WoW being #1, is anyone really surprised? Disagreeing maybe, but surprised?

A lot of good games in that list.

Bioshock shouldnt really be there though, it's an xbox port.

on Jan 31, 2011

Lot of those games were xbox ports.  Thank god for the Xbox, or there would be even less games for the PC.

Congratulations! Sins' place is well deserved! Especially considering the recent boom in 4x RTS games.

It's a decent list, besides than the Relic love in. (Or at least the inclusion of Company of Heroes and Dawn of War 2 over Homeworld 2 and Dawn of War.)

It'll be interesting to see how this list changes over the next ten years as perceptions change.

WoW as #1 should come as no surprise; I may hate it, but there's no questioning it has definitely been the most influential PC game by a wide margin.

Glad Sins made the list.  As a strategy gamer, Sins, WC3, and Civ 4 would definitely make my top 3 games of the decade.

Tropico 3 as number 25?

 

Really?

 

How much did that cost them?

on Feb 01, 2011

World of Warcraft: I hate it, but I know it changed online gaming and has made mucho money. Yeah, it gets it.

Diablo II: For the same reason as WoW, it's still played today and the vast array of possibilities with each class are amazing. And unlike most MMORPGs, the combat design allows for more tactical play that point and click.

I would kinda agree that Dawn of War should be there more than the second, BUT it really came in small bits which did nothing more than starcraft did. As a whole it was much more impressive.

Homeworld 2 I would be inclined to agree with because I'm a fan, but I get why they didn't do it. It didn't push the boundaries beyond what Homeworld did and it had fewer tactical possibilities than the first, and most certainly fewer than Homeworld: Cataclysm. Not to mention that, unlike Sins, it is not designed to be modded, thus projects like Homeworld: Complex have to stand on their own.

I'm glad Sins (rightly) made the list, but I have to say that article is rubbish.  Tropico 3?!?  Plants vs Zombies?!?  DoW II?   Come on!  These games might be worthwhile in various ways, but the best of the decade?!?  What were they drinking when they wrote this....

on Feb 01, 2011

Hey, don't piss on Plants vs Zombies

That game is soo cool
