360: Tie( earth defense force, viva pinata, and mass effect)
ps3: still haven't met somebody who could afford one, but LittleBigPlanet looks cool.

I gotta say, though, it was really hard to limit it just to 20. Oh, the great games that couldn't make it onto this list...

 

[TheEvilCheese]

1. Pokémon (franchise) - totally counts, if I have to pick HG/SS
2. The world ends with you.

4. Mass effect (franchise) - 2 if I had to pick
5. World of warcraft
6. Minecraft
7. TLOZ OOT.
8. Deus Ex: HR (never touched original, should into that)
9. Fire Emblem (GBA) ANNOUNCE A RELEASE DATE FOR AWAKENING ALREADY.
10. Portal (franchise)- 2 if I had to

----from there things get a lot more interchangeable -----

11. Smash Bros Melee
12. Call of Duty 4 (Yes. Shut up.)
13. TLOZ TP
14. Team Fortress 2
15. Sonic adventure 2: battle.
16. Resident evil IV

18. Halo 3
19. Terraria
20. Bastion.


I have no doubt missed several I would place if I had thought more extensively, post probably subject to edit.

 

[auron2112]

It was tricky deciding on a top 20, let alone which order they should be in. This list is very different from what I think the 20 best games are; some of these games are terrible, but they hold a huge personal significance.

1: Journey
2: Final Fantasy X
3: Tachyon: The Fringe
4: Gran Turismo 2
5: Portal
6: Mass Effect
7: Total Annihilation
8: Sword Of The Stars
9: Tomb Raider
10: Ico
11: Dear Esther
12: Mass Effect 3
13: Command And Conquer: Generals
14: Grand Theft Auto IV
15: Magic The Gathering: Duels Of The Planeswalkers 2012
16: Star Wars: Battlefront 2
17: Shadow Of The Colossus
18: Timesplitters 2
19: Mirror's Edge
20: Beneath A Steel Sky

[EmperorSubcutaneous]

This isn't ranked exactly since many of them are ties, but it's close enough. (I haven't played Okami or Prince of Persia: Sands of Time yet, and I fully expect them both to make it onto this list. As well as probably a number of unexpected games that will surprise me with how good they are, like The Walking Dead did.)

1. Silent Hill 2
2. Journey
3. Riven
4. Guild Wars 2
5. Final Fantasy XI
6. Botanicula
7. Machinarium
8. Aquaria
9. Ico
10. The Walking Dead
11. Dragon Age: Origins
12. Pixie Hollow (don't judge, it's excellent for what it is)
13. Secret Paths to the Sea (nostalgia)
14. Secret Paths in the Forest (nostalgia)
15. Uru
16. Star Wars: The Old Republic (yes, I enjoyed the Imperial Agent story more than any other KOTOR story, and more than Mass Effect)
17. Logical Journey of the Zoombinis (nostalgia)
18. Nelda Nockbladder's Anatomy Lesson (nostalgia)
19. Silent Hill 3
20. Portal 2

FYI, if any of you post a list with a number of my games on it, I will stalk your list for other games I might enjoy. (Casual Shinji and Mikeyfell, I'm looking at you.)
