Top 5 games of this generation so far

Still waiting to be honest. Most of the new games this generation have been remakes/clones/sequels to the previous generation which had far better games. Gran Turismo 5 will be at the top for me, but mainly because everything else so far has been a massive disappointment.

1) Prince of Persia (all three parts) :yep:

2) God of war (again, all 3 parts)
3) Heavy rain
4) Obscure: the aftermath
5) Tom Raider Legend
These, i guess, i could put as top five although honestly there are other really good games that also deserve to be on the list.

Not sure about order but...

Mass Effect - Redefined and reimagined RPGs for me, the dialogue system was so fluent and the game was presented like a film which I found incredible.
Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - The closest we've gotten to literally escaping the real world and enetring a fantasy.
BioShock - Blurring the lines between FPS and RPG, entertainment and art, and making us think about morality, philosophy and politics...
Braid/Misadventures of PB Winterbottom/World of Goo - Yes, I'm counting three as one, but for the same reason: They brought real creativity from simple gameplay mechanics, managing to look beautiful without groundbreaking graphics and gave pure gameplay without the dressed up bullcrap we see in most games today.
LittleBigPlanet - This too was ridiculously creative and the developers made it seem our game as much as theirs. Plus how cute is sackboy?! Hahaha.

Honourable mention is Gears of War 2 for Horde mode ^_^

A six hour campaign puts it in your top 5?

Oh yeah, forgot about spec ops. Some of the spec ops levels were really fun actually.
I still like the MP, there are a few who still ruin it with noob tubes and camping but i tend to get quite lucky and seem to avoid the games they're in for the most part.

I tend to have more patience with Spec Ops, I play it co-op and we spent hours trying to do a couple of the levels on Veteran, then beat IW's times, then do knife-only.. I hope they keep it in Black Ops, or something similar at least.. like you said the campaign is usually quite short...

Lets face it, most people dont buy CoD for the campaign. Campaign iv played once, online im up to maybe 2000 games according to my leader boards?

Me and my brother blitzed through spec ops in a few days so we could both get the platinum trophy, and then just moved onto multiplayer. I haven't touched single player or spec ops since late november.
I'd also like to see spec ops in black ops but i don't whether treyarch will bother. They might be putting more effort into zombie mode or something.

Id much rather have a good zombie mode than a spec ops to be honest. I still play W@W for the zombies and nearly nothing else

All listings are for PC versions of the game. Consoles are *****, so I don't rate any games on them or the console versions.

Starcraft II
Assassins Creed II
CS: Source
COD: MW
WoW*

*I don't play it, but if it's not on your list then you're talking some seriously heavy ********. Yeah I know it's about 6 weeks off of making the '05 deadline but it should still be included.
