What games will stand the test of time? Here's my opinion, which is also the plain truth, because I'm a time traveller... and i never lie.
THE ONES THAT WON'T MAKE IT BUT THAT YOU MIGHT THINK WOULD:
GTA3: Ooops, certainly not. It was a great game, but has been done a thousand times better a thousand times since.
GT3: Ha! as if! Those graphics are lame
PRO EVO SOCCER: Where do you plug the ball peripheral into? Tsk, it's so unrealistic.
HALO: Surely this must have come with a light gun, a steering wheel and a microphone headset?
FINAL FANTASY X: I wouldn't bother with that, the FF series is in triple figures now.
THE ONES THAT WILL MAKE IT BUT THAT YOU MIGHT THINK WOULDN'T:
STUPID MONKEY BALLS: Never before and never again. Forever and always, amen.
CAPCOM vs SNK 2: The finest 2d fighter ever made... and possibly the last to retain any kind of commercial dignity.
METAL GEAR SLUG: The finest 2d platformer affair ever made... and probably the last to retain any kind of commercial dignity.
RESIDENT EVIL: I never liked the game, but since Resident Evil part 100 was released, it has been put on the national curriculum as necessary coursework for GCSE English.
SEGA MARINE FISHING: The only fishing game with a silly fishing-rod peripheral. Therefore the only fishing game ever worth playing.
PS Future results for lottery draws, derby winners etc also available for a fee.
> I think that the GTA series will definitely become known as retro.
Not wrong there.
