Ok, you 2 guys who didn't read, 'MASS EFFECT HAS 2 GAMES, NOT 3'
In my opinion, i say that 3 games makes a series, and 2 only makes a sequel.
If i see this again, I'm going to remake this with missed one not being an option.
Mass Effect: Galaxies for the iPhone. Even though it was terrible and we wish it didn't exist.

OT: I'm throwing my lot in with the Half Life series.
ok, a portable game for a phone is an app, not a game
I'll just leave these here....

The OP has shown himself to be rather incensed at the suggestion, but Mass Effect for the win here.

His arguments against it are rather shaky anyway, so I'll just ignore him.

Destroy all Humans!
Ratchet and Clank
Jak and Daxter

If people would have actually bought it, Beyond Good and Evil would probably be a very strong choice.

Star Wars: Jedi Knight
I was hoping someone would put this in. Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight still has the biggest game levels I've ever seen. The best of all of them has to be either Baron's Head(Where you can fight alongside psychotic bunny Max!) or the Imperial Palace, where you need to fight your way into a fuck huge tower surrounded by hundreds of stormtroopers.

You'll find there is proof its finished, by the fact that it was released and you can now go into a store and buy it, I'm pretty sure thats what happens after a game is finished.

Me, I put my vote towards Half Life.

What a tick, a portable GAME isn't actually a game? What about the GAMEboy? so all those games I played on the game boy weren't games? just "apps"?

By that logic I can say that Bioshock doesn't count because Infinite isn't even close to being finished.

Seriously, what's with you and the anti-Mass Effect bias? Does it bother you that the game is so popular?
Show me a commercial of mass effect 3 and I'll admit I'm wrong

Mass Effect or Half-Life. It doesn't matter if there's only two games in each of these entries, they're way better than anything provided in the poll

did you ignore the part that it's on a PHONE. game boy's have cartridges and psp Cd's. phones have applications that can be held on a small hard drive. in those terms, i should have included galaga

Given Mass Effect 3 has only been confirmed about half a dozen times and the game was CREATED AS AS A TRILOGY, I fail to see what proof you need here.

Out of those, I voted Halo. It's a nicely put together universe. The story is roughly average IMO, but the storytelling is very nice.

Out of the ones NOT in the poll, Mass Effect has a very nice sci-fi universe which Bioware have clearly put a lot of thought into. The story is also good, though the storytelling (at least in the first game) could have used some patching up. I'd also like to nominate the Homeworld series for being brilliant all round - well, the first one at least. The story is simple, but effective, and told with atmosphere and emotion.

How about a GOOD reason not to include the game? The fact the game doesn't have a commercial is terrible criteria to exclude it.

Seriously though, do you have something against Mass Effect?

You DID ignore the fact that you already called it a game yourself, and why cant games play phones, have you seen the tech demos id have done with their newest engine on the iPhone, there is no reason what so ever that phones cant be used to play games. It is a perfectly valid platform, just because the games are generally more casual doesn't mean they aren't games. So phones are not gaming platforms because they are stored on a hard drive? well i guess all the games I have installed on my computer aren't actually games? So next time I boot up Call of Duty or TF2, I'll have to say "I'm off to play an app"?

I really don't understand what your point is? Don't like to admit that you filled your posts with contradictions?

Ok, not fantasy, so no final fantasy, god of war or others
Movie based games don't count and sense their half that and their are too many too count,
star wars is excluded
tell me if i forgot any
Edit: 3 games or more means MASS EFFECT DOESN'T COUNT
Edit 2: ok I'm re posting this sense i have screwed up, but mass effect 2 doesn't count because it doesn't have anything to prove it's close to being finished
You missed Duke Nukem too, you know. My vote would go for Mass Effect, probably. Or Duke Nukem. Or Starcraft.

hmm...
no, i just never had a chance to play it, except for when we had it before we gave it to my sisters bf. but it seemed like a cliche at the beginning, the aliens always the treacherous basterd and the coolest character is killed off at the beginning.
in truth i want to play it all the way through, but only if the combat gets better, because TPS only worked for transformers on its 3rd try.

I don't see a 3 anywhere in that trailer. Its a prequel, meaning that it isn't the third game in the series, but a spinoff. Doesn't meet your criteria, which I feel makes all your statements invalid.
