As we embrace the 8th generation of consoles, I feel we should remember the best games of the last. The 7th generation of consoles includes the:
- Xbox 360
- Playstation 3
- Wii
What do you think are some of the all time greatest games released for these systems and why? This does NOT mean your favourites (necessarily) but games of the highest grade of design excellence.
I'll start us with BioShock. It wasn't my all time favourite game but an undeniable gaming classic on many levels.
-
Halo in general. Especially Halo 3. Just Cause 2 Red Dead Redemption Skyrim
-
Bad Company 1 Halo 3 Cod 4
-
Halo in general, not including 4 Assassin's creed up to and including AC 2 Fallout 3 Oblivion Minecraft BF BC2 Yeah, that seems about right. (Baring in mind i haven't played bioshock)
-
Halo 3 MW2 AC2 Bioshock
-
Basically what everyone is saying and I also liked Deadspace and the Dead Space 3 co-OP was fun

Halo 3 Halo ODST TES: Skyrim Dark Souls Minecraft Mass Effect 1-3 sans last 10 minutes Asura's Wrath DLC(lol) Ending Mario Galaxy 2 Deus Ex:HR Assassin's Creed 2---Brotherhood Battlefield BC2 SSBB Xenoblade Star Wars TFU2 (guilty pleasure nonsense) etc. and tons of PC stuff that robs my wallet with each sale.

Edited by TrustySnooze: 6/4/2013 10:52:59 PMI don't know about the highest grade, but I think GRAW, Call of Duty 3, and Halo 3 were pushing it for their time and quite enjoyable. On the other hand, Halo Reach is of great quality. I also really like Ghost Recon Future Soldier, but there are a few things I think they could have perfected. I guess I shouldn't forget about Portal 2 either.

Halo 3 Bioshock Gears of war
-
Halo 3 BioShock DE: Human Revolution Portal 2 Assassin's Creed II Red Dead Redemption Skyrim

Mass Effect 1 (1 only), Journey (<3), and Metal Gear Solid 4 (yes, even without the ending the story was great).
