Please, post your top-ten games released so far! You need to have played them too!
Here are mine!
10. Mario Golf - Why? Because it's fun... it's a bit low down because the graphics aren't as good as they could be... compared to games like Mario and Conker, the transparent effects don't do it for me.
9. Banjo-Kazooie - The original and best in my view... I loved the fairytale setting and the Click Clock Wood theme was the best!
8. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarine of Time - Apart from taking a long time to type, it took me a long time to complete, but I never once lost interest... Miyamoto Magic, in a nut-shell!
7. Fifa 2001 - I love football... playing it, watching it, talking it... so this is natural, right? The setup seems simpler than ISS. The only problem is the not-so-real ball physics... even on hard, it's a breeze!
6. Mario Tennis - So much fun in one cartridge.... this game defies the laws of physics.... well... not really, but it's good anyway. What? You want miracles?!
5. Extreme G 3 - Soooo fast! Faster than a speeding bullet. Faster than the bullet train. Second only to Iguana, Myst1que and Bonus running towards the New Look sales stands! Graphics and gameplay are great too!
4. Luigi's Mansion - "Miiiiyyyaaammooooootttooooo?!" Enough said! Spooky huh?, well the hair on the back of your neck would be on end if it weren't for Mr. Ghostbuster himself! Luigi is king of the Mansion!
3. Goldeneye - Rare's best for me... Conker was good, Banjo was funny, Perfect Dark was nearly there, but Goldeneye always wore the Rareware crown! It must have been Natalya... Grrrrrr! Multiplayer was amazing too!
2. Soul Calibur - Ivy... Grrrrr... Okay, it wasn't her, or the blonde, but this is the best fighing game to date, and the story-mode just ices the cake perfectly... roll on 2! (You sound like a Green Mile excecution official!) Thanks....
1. Super Mario 64 - Still unsurpassed in 'Game's Book of Video Games', Super Mario 64 is the mother of all things videogaming. Miyamoyo gets a hat-trick in Game's top-ten with the best game in the world, and rightfully so!
There you have it... a lot of the games were N64, but Nintendo is my bag, and I'm not about to change now!
Go Nintendo Go!

6. Banjo - Tooie (N64)
5. CBFD (N64)
4. Black & White (PC)
3. OoT (N64)
2. The Italian Job (PSX)
1. Majoras Mask (N64)
Thats Mine. Anyone played Italian Job. It kept me laughing for 20 mins. Like Driver 2 but funnier.
Majoras Mask a lot of people have said that OoT was better but for some reason I enjoyed Majoras Mask more but in some ways I liked OoT more. But when I added up (ooh took a long time that did) the likes and islikes I liked MM that little bit more.
Black & White, 5 Levels you start off with a cute tiny little creature and you must train him, oh yeah you are a god. Doesn't sound very appealing does it?
Sounds like a Pokemon style God Game not a mixture between the very addictive tamogotchi and Zelda Adventuring style type of game does it? The Levels last you ages and after half an hour you find it very hard to pull yourself away.
CBFD didn't really know much about this game till everyone started talking about it so I waited for more reviews to appear and realised what a great game this sounded like, and a lot of games with hype don't turn out as well as they were thought to be as developers start to realise that eveyrone wants to buy it and kinda slacks off a bit. But a great, funny, slightly challenging and short adventure game from the one and only Rare! Marvellous!
Banjo Tooie - the sequel to what I think was a benchmark game for Nintendo and everyone at that time. Quite a new game which I got only a couple of months ago, it isn't quite as challenging as Banjo-Kazooie but still just as fun and kinda leans towards the humour of CBFD, brilliant game especially the mulitplayer mini sub shoot out.
Mazza 64 - a classic game one of the first out and one of the first to use a fully interactive 3D environment and guess what it is still played by millions today. With countless numbers of levels and stars and other various items to collect it will last you a lifetime, a brilliant idea and game from Nintendo.
Well what can I say...a benchmark game for Nintendo and the world, for its age great textures and challenging gameplay and HUGE environments from the masters of Games design...Rare and Nintendo. Playing as the original Banjo and Kazooie and meeting the future characters of the sequel.
A game I won on GAD, wasn't one of my most anticipated games but I had it on demo and it was very enjoyable so I thought why not and haven't stopped playing it since for at least once a week. Online gaming was good as well although having to type in connections etc.
Sims now this I think is my most recent game and I am waiting for the new expansions to come out as House Party doesn't really appeal to me that much. Big Brother stylee? Well sort of as they didn't have babies crying every second of the day in that program I don't think, and having to go to work etc. But make someone elses life a living hell instead of yours or treat them good and give them widescreen TVs and state of the art computers to play on?
This is my top ten really consisting off Nintendo, and PC, which are currently my favourite platforms, but next year it will have changed as I am hoping the PS2 prices will drop again so that I can replace my past one.

i am suffering a really bad case of dČj· v™
And YES! I am remotely annoyed about there being one too many take-away's, and yes, I do care, and yes, you should shut up before I hurt you!
Stupid, takeaways... last time I go to one!
