FAngels Top 25 Favorite Games of All Time
 

Hello there and welcome to Fangels Top 25 Favorite Games of All Time.

Inspired by #1-wwf-fans Top 100 Matches, I set about creating this list of my most enjoyed games from the time I started playing video games on a Nintendo Entertainment System until now with my PC and Xbox360.

Over the next 24 days, I will reveal the games on the list until we get to my most enjoyed game of all time.

Here we go.

Grand Theft Auto IV was the first game I ever pre-ordered. At the time of release I was in Montreal for a concert and it awaited my return. After a few hours of gameplay I became frustrated with the cars handling and lack of speed. It seems to smother you, there was no open areas to explore just a massive concrete jungle and a main character I couldn't get attached to and the game was shelved for a long time.

Over the last few years, I have become fascinated with New York City and how it is portrayed as a sort of entity in movies and television shows. GTA IV was still laying unplayed in my stack of games and I thought maybe this game has more going for it then I first realized.

After a bit more time and several hours exploring the city I began to appreciate the setting much much more. This is what New York is supposed to feel like. A massive jungle of brown and grey. The only relief is a small gem in the city named Middle Park.

I truly believed I stumbled onto something special in this game as you are playing as an immigrant to America seeking the dream with promises of riches and glory but finding a desolate lifestyle and a city underworld full of corruption and violence.

It is amazing as you watch Niko attempt to adapt to American culture while fighting himself with the morals of what he is doing. Some say the story is weak and Niko himself a cardboard protagonist. That may be true, the story may lack any buildup to its climax and Niko seems one dimensional at times.

However look at it from the perspective of an immigrant, betrayed by someone he considered a friend. Coming to the land of opportunity and the greatest city in the world to escape his former life and is met with circumstances that force him back into doing the only thing that he has ever known.

Put that together with the incredible detail and scale GTA IV has to offer and it changed my opinion vastly from the frustrating throwaway I thought the game was.

Fuck you

:y:

Looking forward to everyone else's tears in this thread. Good form, FA. :cool:

The next game I know a lot of people have enjoyed so I have my doubts ill get too flamed if at all.

24. Final Fantasy X-2

Quite clearly.

Post them faster so this isn't dragged out for a whole month.

I barely give a shit in the first place and if this thread is going to be near the top every day for the next month than it's going to make me hate you

Pretty much. If Ossman hadn't saved the thread, I'd already be terribly annoyed.

Deal with it.

Close the thread

23. Beat em and Eat em

Think ill do this once every two days now.

Wow. Shitty idea.

So was your parents decision to have you but we've all learned to deal with it.

Says the guy who jerked off in his mom's sheets because she got him the wrong kind of hot pockets.

How delightfully on cue!

*pizza pops.

I stand corrected. :o

The ersatz colts fans have banded together

I thought what needed to be on cue would be multiple paragraphs on why we should care.

My b.

Can't be bothered findig an Impact thread.

Why is Bully Ray demanding I look at his calves?

Because his thighs are fat.

They're actually pretty toned these days. I was quite shocked.

And they're going to get "bigger and bigger".

If he hadn't said calves, I'd have thought I wondered onto a solo gay cam show.

Again.

It's TNA. You kinda did.

Sting tweeted that he was done a couple of weeks back. But he meant done with someone's shit instead of leaving wrestling.

What a twist!

Even when I was a fat bastard kid, I walked everywhere as fast as possible like a beast and had amazing calves that defied the entire rest of my body.

Nice summary guy :y:, I completed GTA4 and thought it was great, was shitty that you got zero rewards for doing side missions though, that IMO was it'd biggest flaw.

Calves is a nice link into number 22. The videogames hero that would probably have the most defined ones compared to the rest of his body. It's Sonic The Hedgehog!

Oh baby.

Hasney, will you show me your calves?

like Mooby?

I doubt the TPWW servers could cope with the traffic demand after such a wonderful picture of calves.

You're right. The server cries like a Sascha when three more people hop online. The thousands you'd bring in would force it to suicide.

I'll put the picture up on the servers of THQ's next game. Their servers are as smooth as butter so there'll be no issue there!

Put it on the NExt AssCreed game's server.

Kill two birds with one stone.
