This is bound to create plenty of discussion and arguments. The biggest question is, if you remove nostalgia from the equation, is the selection 100% correct…?
UK gamers recently voted for the best PlayStation games of all time and the results were published in the 50th issue of the Official PlayStation Magazine. The poll was conducted to celebrate the brand name's 15th anniversary and as you can see , Naughty Dog's Uncharted 2: Among Thieves has claimed the top spot. It was apparently a very close race between this masterpiece and the original Metal Gear Solid but the point is, Uncharted 2 takes the top spot.
Obviously, we're talking about three full generations here, so it can be tough to pick. Personally, I'm a little surprised that Vice City easily outstripped GTAIII (but I would make the same selection), and I'm also surprised to see RDR and SotC on there. I would've liked to have seen Final Fantasy X , one of the God of War s, and Twisted Metal: Black , but hey, that's me. Said Ben Wilson, Editor of Official PlayStation Magazine:
"Since it came out in late 2009 we’ve maintained that Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is the best game not just on PS3 but every console around, so it was little surprise to see our readers vote it the number one PlayStation game of all time. It has everything you could want from an action-adventure, and then some: An engaging story full of cinematic twists, a charismatic and funny lead character, brilliant voice acting, masses of clever gameplay ideas, and a host of strong multiplayer modes. It’s the complete videogame, and much deserving of the top spot."
So, what say you?
