No Quake 2 ?? Game had a killer soundtrack.

Well, it was neck-and-neck between QUAKE 2 and DOOM on which ID franchise would go on the list. In the end, DOOM won out. Much like FF7 beat out CHRONO TRIGGER on the Square Enix side.

Great to see Silent Hill 2 at number 1 -- good choice!

Thank You. I wish Konami would put it on Steam, tbh. It's kind of absurd that such a masterpiece is currently unplayable (in it's proper form). Many younger gamers deserve to discover it.

theIndianNoob2595d ago

HALO, needed to be on the top 10 list proper, I don't like this Honorable Mention bull, and neither would Master Chief and neither would MS.

JRPG's have amazing soundtracks. My favourite is Phantasy Star Universe.

Channel 4 would b the way 2-go, atleast the aint afraid 2 get there hands dirty (Shameless rules)

kevco335206d ago

Channel 4 have a number of shows that would convert well to videogames.

A little off topic - that episode of Shameless last night was the first time in AGES I've laughed-out-loud at a comedy program on British TV!

iTWire Review: Ready, Steady, Cook

iTWire writes: "It is on during the working day, so I have not seen it, but from the web information available, Ready Steady, Cook looks like a day-time bastardisation of Masterchief and Iron Chief. This game is looking to cash in on the popularity of Cooking Mama, also on DS."
