The Best Games of 2007: Halo 3, BioShock, Assassin's Creed & More

Assassin's Creed and Halo 3 are only a few games that made our list for Best Games of 2007. Can you guess which game topped our list? It will blow your mind!

[MaximusPrime]

Uncharted should really be in the top 10. (despite being released late this year)

[Kaneda]

I am surprised uncharted didn't even get top 10...

[mesh1]

as i said played uncharted and for gameplay the game is pile of crap this game is a lone of other games and gets so boring it gives me stomach aches when playing it

[MK_Red]

My choices would be:

BioShock
Assassin's Creed
Mass Effect
Ratchet & Clank TOD
Uncharted
God of War 2 (Thanks Danja)
Super Mario Galaxy
Zack & Wiki
Metroid Prime 3
The Orange Box
COD4

+The Witcher

[Danja]

I agree with most of your list but Mass Effect and Assassins Creed has too many flaws to be considered GOTY...

now just include GOW2..and ur list is good...

[MK_Red]

Oops, my bad. Thanks for mentioning GOW2.
As for AC, I really believe it's one of the best games of 2007 and one of the best experiences in years. All the flaws are nothing compared to it's merits IMO.
As for ME, I'm a huge PC / classic RPG fan and ME is the closest games to the classics I love like Fallout, Baldur's Gate and KOTOR even though it may not be as perfect as them.

[Krazy Ken Kutaragi]

Oh bugger fudge that fanboy Danja made a good point. If I want to keep them bubbles and avoid the sony fanatics retribution. I better placate them with a warm fuzzy statement that completely shows any lack of personal opinion or preference.

[Danja]

dude I don't take bubbles from ppl..nor do I put ppl on ignore why bother to ignore or try to censor someone by limiting how many times they can express there opinions I think that's why we all come on the site to read ppls comment along with the news...!!

and GOW2 is the best action game of the year...so why shouldn't be nominated also..?

[wil4hire]

Bioshock
COD4

[to407]

Bioshock is a Multiplat game!?!

[iceice123]

Games for windows and 360 games multiplat. Those people are insecure.

[wil4hire]

Ut3
Bioshock
COD4
Hl2/counterstrike/dod

on my game rig that makes me insecure?

Multiplatform means just that.. multiple platform. You 360 xbots really have issues. I say its a good thing to see multiplats on there, because these are games that all GAMERS can enjoy.

Even though the list included PC and Console games.

Sorry, I take it back

Multiplatform games are bad..? err..ok?

I'd say the person that turns a positive statement into xbot-flame-bs is the one with security issues.

that person is YOU icewake.

[rofldings]

@Icewake

Games for windows?

You mean games for PC. It just so happens microsoft has a monopoly on the OS market so everyone has to use their buggy piece of crap OS to play these games.

[DrPirate]

So let me get this straight...

I've been playing 360 exclusive games such as the Orange Box, Bioshock and Gears of War......Even though I don't own a 360.

I must be a friggin God.

[MK_Red]

Also, I must give special nod to great handheld games Crush and Zelda: Phantom Hourglass.

Rock Band, Heavenly Sword, Crysis, The Darkness, Super Paper Mario and Virtua Fighter 5 also deserve the special nod.

[iceice123]

Left out Halo 3. I don't think it's anything special myself but still. I'd still say "good".

[Probotector]

Super Mario Galaxy is BY FAR the best game of 2007.

Poor PStards, I love when they complain about the lack of their games in GOTY lists. Face it guys, all your ps3 exclusives suck balls! LMFAO.

[Mr Tretton]

...and yet, there was only one Wii game in that list.

[candystop]

Yeah one game better than all the PS3 games combined.

[m9105826]

Is there a reason we can't take away this kids bubbles?

[Shaka2K6]

LOL.

but oh its anti-Sonypro? i see.

The best game this year is Uncharted, with God of War 2 and Rogue Galaxy.

[Xbox is the BEST]

Uncharted, Heaven Sword, haven't played R&C yet (my room mate has a PS#3)but Warhawk is the best game that I've played on the PS#3

[techie]

Gamepro is banned.

[Danja]

cool avatar deep where'd yeh get it..?

[Relcom]

COD4 isn't easily the GOTY.

[ThaGeNeCySt]

Because Bioshock existed this year

[iLemon]

COD4 is the best multiplayer FPS I have ever played. Bioshock was very enjoyable but doesn't really have the replay value COD4 has.

[tony]

my pick would've be bioshock but i'm a call of duty 4 junkie too, so i'm glad call of duty 4 end up #1 .

[Shaka2K6]

To short not worth the money, and the graphics are nice but its all about the gameplay which Uncharted has the best gameplay of any game this year.

[razer]

and I have to say it's a hard choice between COD4, BioShock and Mass Effect for GOTY. But COD4 is just so intense and cinematic that I can see why they chose it.

What console would allow you to play all but 3 of the games in that list?? Yup the 360.

Could that site have any more PS3 ad's on it.. jees.. I had to site thru a PS3 commercial before watching the video and then all the side banner ad's are for the PS3.

[rofldings]

Guess you wanted some 360 ads so you can jack off to them, right?

[razer]

you sound a wittle mad.. are you gonna cry??

Actually, I find it ironic with all the Gamepro ad controversy lately about advertisers paying for good reviews that Sony would be so well represented.. I know it prolly went over your head. Just go back to playing Duderaider and let the adults talk.

EZCheez: Nah, I think the PS3 is a good system. I have been attacked by one too many PS3 fanboys on this site and I guess I am defensive more than I should be. I just really wanted to say Duderaider.. Uncharted is a beautiful and fun game. I think a 360 fanboy would not be able to admit that.(?)

[EZCheez]

I've always taken you're word for it, but your comments about PS3 have been nothing but derogative lately. The only reason I find that weird is because of all the great games that came out for it last month, and it just doesn't add up. If you don't own one and you want to flame then whatever. Just don't lie about it.

I've never heard anyone sound so repulsed by something that they paid so much for.

On topic though, Uncharted gets robbed more and more everyday. I was the first to come on here and admit just how bad Lair was, and I'll be one of the last to stop giving praise to Uncharted. Why? Because they both deserve it.

[fopums]

I'll wait for the actual GOTY awards, though I agree that COD4 was #1 but that may change for me after the 10th :D

on a side note, they said first place will blow your mind? why? COD4 rocked most every other console game this year at least as far as visuals go, plus the great gameplay and sweet multiplayer...

[Douchebaggery]

My GOTY wont be in anybody's list but Warhawk is the most fun I've had with a game this year.

Story, innovation and graphics are all important but at the end of the day fun is what gaming is all about for me.

[Relcom]

But i couldn't pick as the best cause i stopped playing it to play COD4. Its is the second most fun i have had though. Or third i loved ratchet and clank

[Douchebaggery]

I'm talking about the criteria people use to choose GOTY

[candystop]

I'm going o have to go with Bioshock and Halo3 multiplayer!

[SF49er408]

UNCHARTED IS OVERRATED. SAME WITH RATCHET.

.

Yea its a game that was supposed to be excellent but instead theyre dull, ripoffs. Uncharted is good but not great. Ratchet looks like a xbox live arcade game. sieriously.

//

Im playin both ratchet and uncharted and there is no replay value whatsoever. In halo 3 i finished the campaign on normal, heroic and legendary, 1 more time to get the points from the meta game and 1 more time for the skulls. Ive played the campaign like 5 times. It has way better graphics than ratchet. Ratchet is alright but its the same s**t over and over again. Halo 3 i got multiplayer over and over again. Gotta say i like the xbox way more now that i got a ps3. ps3 has not impressed me. at all. maybe a little with uncharted but that is a complete rip off of gears of war and its repetitive as well. Enemies and shooting is tough and wobbly. ps3 controller blows. damn japanese have too small of hands. and wtf is with having two joysticks on the bottom?? 360 controllers way better. and no achievements of ps3. all in all 360 just stomps the ps3.

.

you guys rag on the 360 for being loud, but the ps3 is like a f**kin loiud add vacuum cleaner after about 15 min.

[fopums]

I dont think you know the definition of overrated....

[vloeistof]

then what is halo3 then.

[DrPirate]

SF49er. I cant even state how many multiples of fail your post is....

[razer]

when you said R&C looks like an Xbox Live Arcade game. All I can say is, NO WAY and that you have never played R&C. I was kinda thinking all the Pixar comparisons where BS, but after I got into some later levels in the game I will say it looks kinda like a Pixar movie.

[mesh1]

uncharted is a terrible game for gamers that have played games alL their life its just a weak game very very very repetitive for me GOTY EASILY IS BIOSHOCK FOLLOWED BY MASS EFFECT THEN COD4 AND HALO 3 NOTHING ELSE GETS IN THERE

[Shankle]

*sighs* another one for the ignore list I think....

[jinn]

halo3 and cod4

[wiizy]

just dont add those joke ps3 games like ratchet and clank, lair and heavenly sword...... add the cream of the crop mario galaxy and metroid on there and im good

[Shaka2K6]

Totally trash with horrible graphics and pathetic online gameplay full of 12 year old xbots..

[The Chief of Mjolnir]

Wow. So you think that everyone that owns a Xbox 360 is a Xbot? Loser...

I guess you´re trying to trash a GOTY contender. And you fail, because you can´t come up with any good comments. Every time you comment, you are trying to trash a game or the 360.

Go back to your closet, evil monkey.

[Rhezin]

Meh I'll admit it Bioshock and Uncharted get a tie for GOTY. Anything else is just a toy.

[TheMART]

The top 4

COD4
Bioshock
Halo 3
Mass Effect

Only playable on one system. You gotta have the XBOX 360

[m9105826]

I dunno what you might think, but I'm relatively sure I played both COD4 and Bioshock (mediocre IMO) without owning a 360. And some day, I'll play Mass Effect... when the better version comes out on PC. And I'll torrent it...

[harpua]

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH Halo 2.5 and Mass "Framerate" Effect!!!!

[m9105826]

Off topic, but why can't we disagree or take bubbles away from some users?

[Shankle]

I think it's just you.

[m9105826]

It's just Probotector, his plus an minus are greyed out on every thread i go into.

[mintaro]

assassins creed should not be there, it was nowhere as good as they made it out to be and in place of ass-ass-ins creed should be uncharted

[otherZinc]

HALO 3 in their top games list for game of the year, are complete Fools. A game like that must be on your list or your dumb-ass is up to something.

My choice: HALO 3.

[BIGBAER]

None of the other contenders match Halo's replayability or reach the level of Halo 3's multiplayer excellence.

Halo 3 is a deep, rich, gaming experience. It is NOT a "one night stand" like so many others. It will be played for years, long after the others are forgotten.

[The Chief of Mjolnir]

People are playing Halo 2, too, so I think you´re right.

[cr33ping_death]

everyone i know who was playing halo....me included...stopped playing halo for COD4. i still dont see what halo fanboys see in that game.
