On a greatest games of all time list? I love Platinum, but the only game from them that belongs on here is Wonderful 101 and maybe Bayonetta.
Mario 64 at....16. Under games like RDR and Skyrim.
You can't be serious Forbes.
The historical significance of Mario 64 can't be overstated. Its influence can be seen in pretty much every 3D game that's come out since. There is no game that represents such a huge leap forward for games. There probably won't ever be again unless someone 1) invents the holodeck and 2) launches it with a game that's a brilliant execution of the new medium.
PS - Nothing against RDR and Skyrim. They're both great.
It's READER voted so direct your abuse and accusations of 'garbage list' at randomers on the internet.
Bayonetta is one of the best action games ever made if not the best. It's a lot better than many games in the list.
Ok, can you describe or explain why TLOU is one of your favorite games of all time? Because I don't see how a game with cliche story (post apocalyptic survival story we have seen many times in gaming/ other media and done much better ) and average gameplay with passable A.I (Naughty Dog got away with their scripted E3 demo) that emphasis on stealth could be the best game ever.
Where does the game innovate or push gaming in general? I'm not saying that TLOU is a bad game, but in my opinion it's highly overrated.

Can't say I agree, the genre switch-ups made sense for me and never took me out of the game. Especially robo Punch-Out was brilliant.For sure. It's sad those games don't have the audiences they deserve.
TW101 has way too many poorly balanced minigames. It would tie Bayonetta for Platinum's best game if its gameplay weren't so uneven. The combat and presentation are brilliant, the genre switches are not.
Metal Gear Rising is ridiculously underrated, BTW.
Sure, but I'd put Devil may Cry over it when it comes to influence on the genre.Bayonetta is one of the best action games ever made if not the best. It's a lot better than many games in the list.

It would be fun.

Goddamn, you are truly shaken by this.I hate to burst your bubble but The Last of Us will win that too. Popularity contests means you get IMDB-like voting.
Goddamn, you are truly shaken by this.
Have you ever played The Last of Us, out of interest?

I rented it on Redbox and finished the campaign over a weekend. Why do you ask? Am I to receive the generic "You must have not played The Last Of Us!" chestnut?
And I'd appreciate you not assuming my feelings, thanks. It makes you look foolish and reaching for things to say.
Maybe if you only remember games from the N64 on, sure.
I get the impression that many of the more extreme TLOU haters have never played it

Or you just have the opinion that it's not one of those one games.loving this TLOU salt tbh
any of these types lists are a joke, and any one of 10 or so games could be placed at #1 because at the end of the day there's opinion involved
but to say TLOU isnt one of those ~10 games is forced blinders / hipster contrarian

Oof. That's the kinda KO that sends the poster flying backwards into some breakable barrels.Is saying that any better than saying this?
It HAS to happen
I asked because the game has clearly affected you quite deeply.
It's cool though, a brief scan of your post history told me everything I needed to know. You really do have quite the issue with this game.
That The Dark Knight is a better movie than Schindler's List.What does IMBD-like rating mean.
Why does it have to push gaming or innovate to be a fun game? What bearing does innovation on how fun a game is?
The AI wasn't perfect, sure, but really, what games have AI that are good and don't have weird quirks? I know people love to cite Halo and Half-life for their AI, but I've beaten both, and don't feel that their AI is any better (or worse) than the AI in The Last of Us. I think the only game where I've actually been impressed with the AI is the original FEAR.
The story is filled with cliches, but what story doesn't have it's fair share? The ending was still superb, and the story was well told and well acted.
The stealth was the best part of the game. I loved that I could engage, and disengage at will. There was no fail state for being noticed. You always had options to get out of a jam if you were spotted.
As for what I loved about the game? I loved the gunplay. Every gun felt unique and powerful. The hit response was great. And weapon handling was excellent, as were the controls. The game had great atmosphere, and the game could be incredibly intense (particularly areas with a lot of clickers/stalkers). I loved that there were upgrade elements (both for Joel and his weapons). I loved the wide linear level design. A lot of fun playgrounds to sneak around and fight in. I loved the seamless mix of melee and gun-based combat. And the mix of stealth gameplay and direct combat.
Was the game perfect? No, obviously not, I think the game has it's share of imperfections. But I also loved Resident Evil 4, and I have a ton of issues with that game as well. Unlike seemingly most people, I can find flaws in things that I love, and still enjoy them regardless.
EDIT: It honestly seems like most people just turn a blind eye to flaws in the games they love while nitpicking games they don't enjoy. People are so convinced that the game they didn't enjoy must have been flawed, and so they look for reasons why. But the games they loved? Just so good, there could be nothing wrong with it.

Pretty sure The Last of Us would go number 1 there too so no point.
No, everybody is allowed to make a list.Lol at the negativity. Its like you guys are saying there is no place on the internet to have a poll about what your favourite game is. Only critics are allowed to compose a list!
I get the impression that you're full of shit and are only assuming what people have and haven't played based on nothing.
Can't say I agree, the genre switch-ups made sense for me and never took me out of the game. Especially robo Punch-Out was brilliant.
Sure, but I'd put Devil may Cry over it when it comes to influence on the genre.
All three would make my list in seconds though.
Bayonetta was an evolution of the genre, but I agree with you. Devil may Cry started the genre, but sadly it didn't make the list which is a joke. I don't know the criteria they followed to make the list, because it's inconsistent.
I've never bothered with the multiplayer personally. For me this game is about Joel and Ellie getting their bond on whilst we traverse a familiar and yet corrupted land.It's a fantastic game. A truly fantastic one. I'm on my 2nd (or third) playthrough now because trophies are a weakness of mine. Although those multiplayer trophies are a bit of a turn off. The game has horrible mulitplayer.
But still, the best game of ALL time? Come on. As good as TLoU is now, I personally don't see it being a game that ages gracefully and I don't mean visually either. Not many 3D last gen games will age well visually, that's just a pitfall of 3D.
Why?
The criterion was "random Empire.com user" so I'm not surprised at the lack of japanese games outside of FF.Bayonetta was an evolution of the genre, but I agree with you. Devil may Cry started the genre, but sadly it didn't make the list which is a joke. I don't understand the criteria they followed to make the list, because it's inconsistent.
