Oh, I forgot Plants vs. Zombies. Sure, simple casual game but I still liked it's style and humor.

I played Warcraft and Frozen Throne again not so long ago. Still a bloody good game even today.

Meh. None of these games are Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Therefore, they aren't even worth my attention. Except Elderscrolls:Oblivion, which was.

I find it quite difficult to get excited about single player games myself, but what I can provide is my Top Ten Multiplayer Console games of the Decade. That's right.

Dead or Alive 4 (Xbox 360) 7. Burnout 3 (Playstation 2) 6. NBA Street Homecourt (Xbox 360) 5. Zelda Four Swords (GC) 4. Powerstone 2 (DC) 3. Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 (DC) 2. Conkers Bad Fur Day (N64) 1.

Yeah, but then I would be playing it on my own on my PC. It simply wouldn't be the same. What made it so good in the first place was me and three other people running around as Monkeys trying to stick Sticky Mines to each other in Eliminator mode. Turning and calling my mate a bastard as he tags me then runs away as I'm on my last life. And then all I can do is wait till he decides to trigger the explosive and put me out of my misery. And while I wait for the next round. Have a beer and launch a verbal assault on all of them. Good times.

Makes no difference to the console. :-P

You can play it on PCSX2, by the way. ^^ That's how I caught up to all (well, most of) the PS2 titles I missed. :-P

Of course it does. It makes a big difference. I'm not getting people round to huddle round a PC. That's just gay.

I would agree with Lims list pretty much. Advance Wars and Golden Sun

Hook up your PC to your TV, get yourself some gamepads et voila! :-P
