What Are the BioWare Founders' 5 Games of the Decade?

[Suskie]

NOTE TO EVERYONE: Mass Effect 2 was released in 2010.

Yes, but that's still within the "last" 10 years. =P

But... but... it's in a different decade than the others... BAAAAAH YOU WITH YOUR LOGIC.

 

[Tears of Blood]

But they are saying "of the decade" (2000-2009). >_>

Even so, it came out in January. Close enough for me, especially with how phenomenal it is.

 

[Susan Arendt]

They're both MDs? PhDs surely?

I'm shocked they didn't pick:

Mass Effect
Mass Effect 2
Dragon Age Origins
...Pass
Abstain

Why do you think it's called BioWare?

The same reason Lionhead is called just that, it sounds cool. Unless Mr Molyneux is secretly half lion.

They are, in fact, both MDs, and were at least until relatively recently, still practicing. (You have to practice for a certain number of hours to keep your license, I think.)

[Brotherofwill]

A fairly bland and average selection. Can't believe they almost exclusively picked newer games (>2007)and hardly any RPGs.

"Alright sir, just turn your head and cough."
"Hey, aren't you one of those guys that made BioWare? I loved Mass Effect!"
"Yeah, great, thanks. Still waiting on that cough."

What are your top five?

Search bar man.
JK, OT: Warcraft 3
Guild Wars
Pokemon Platinum
Spore
Battlefield Bad Company
Those were just my favorites, not what I think were the most important or whatever.

 

[FactualSquirrel]

Hmmmm.

Turns out I share absolutely no tastes with either of the Bioware founders.

Might explain why I've never thought there games were that amazing.

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

No Metal Gear games? I'm disappointed. And RE4? Come on.

Because the truly great Metal Gear was released in 1998?

Desert Combat for Battlefield 1942
Team Fortress 2
Portal
World of Warcraft
Call of Duty 4

MGS3? That game was almost perfect! I guess that's my opinion. I mean, personally I would say MGS4 is one of the greatest games of all time, but I do understand why a lot of people dislike it.

 

[WorldCritic]

Star Wars KOTOR
Jet Set Radio Future
Devil May Cry 3
Mirror's Edge
Final Fantasy 12

If I remember correctly the first "game" they published was the gastroenterology patient simulator. At least, that is per Wes Borg's immortal song "Bioware Doesn't Suck."

For me it's:

Bioshock
Oblivion
COD 4
Left 4 Dead w/ friends
Mass Effect or Dragon Age
