I could have stuck Advance Wars, Fire Emblem Awakening, Sega Rally, Fable, Valkyria Chronicles, Xenoblade Chronicles, Virtua Fighter 4, Soul Calibur or the whole Monster Hunter series in there and been fairly happy too.Ĭoming in with a top nine was Tuffcub, and it goes something like this: 1. A side-scrolling beat em’ up from Treasure with great graphics, awesome music, branching paths, and an undead skeleton with a big sword that follows you around, makes sure that it remains my all time favourite. My gut reaction to being asked what my favourite game is always comes back with the same answer Guardian Heroes on the Sega Saturn. Still, despite the hardships and mental torture they’ve suffered, I have in fact found out some of the best games they’ve ever played. This was then followed by the submission of a top nine, a top five, a top six, a top one, a top three and the sanctioning of a top zero for Tuffcub for being mean to Kris.Īll in all I’ve learnt a valuable lesson today, besides that virtually no one here can count, and that that’s trying to get a group of games writers to a) pick their favourite game and b) follow any defined set of rules, is virtually impossible. “Can we have top fives?”, “Sure” I said, “if that’s going to make it easier”. Thus commenced much handwringing, and many cries of “I couldn’t possibly”, “that’s ridiculous”, and “go away”. I thought this was relatively simple, just a throwaway little bit of fun to close out the week, but no. Obviously in this case it was games, and I thought that as we’d reached the three hundredth edition of What We Played that I’d ask the team what their favourite game was insteadof what they’d been playing. I have learnt this week that if you want to create utter havoc within a workplace, just ask everybody to narrow something down to their absolute favourites.
