My Top 10 Best Games: Honorable Mentions
These are some of the games I had in my list for the Top 10 but didn't make it.

If I made a Top 11 list, this would be #11. Everything leading up to this game made it look crap. By the time it was released I thought this game had no hope. I was wrong. With a thick, Lord of the Rings style world, excellent characters, voice acting, pacing and a fantastic soundtrack this game turned out to be the best of 09 and possibly this entire generation.
-
It's Half-life 2. Do I really need to explain why it was on this list?
-
Turned a 2D series into 3D with near perfection. Painfully hard for some developers(I'm looking at you Sega). Nintendo got it on there first try. A classic and fun to play even today, something not many N64 games can claim.
-
Yep, the original. The series might be a bit worn these days but when it first came out this is what every pokemon fan could have possibly wanted in a game.
-
I sunk 100 hours into this game. Huge, beautiful and much better combat than Morrowind but there were just too many issues to put it in the top 10.
-
While Abe's Oddysee was the first in the series there were a lot of flaws in the game. Mainly how insanely hard it was. This game helped that with a quick save system and just a smoother experience. I also liked the new kinds of enemies and the ability to posses a Glukkon. Overall, a better game but similar to the first.
-
The classic Mario Kart in my opinion. Many hours were put into this.
-
The game still looks amazing even to this day. A funny, adventurous game that falls a little flat right at the end.
-
Epic space battles at their finest. Watching the 15km long capital fight each other was almost as good as joining in the fighting yourself. What I would do for Freespace 3...
-
Excellent MechWarrior game. Some considered it to be dumbed down compared to the previous titles but I found it to have found the sweet spot in the series. I bought a $200 joystick after playing with game for 5 minutes with one. Worth every cent.
-
Persistent character progression, weapon unlocks, medals, and based in modern warfare. Sounds like some other game...
-
The Marine campaign is still one of the scariest parts of a game I've ever played. Each race felt unique and fun to play and the multiplayer was a blast. Shame the franchise went back to Rebellion and turned to crap.
-
A game that still looks amazing today and lets you feel like a Star Wars pilot. Fight at every major battle and then some. A must for any Star Wars fan.
