Banjo-Kazooie

1. Banjo-Kazooie

Still probably the game I enjoy playing the most. Fails not to put a smile on my face every time. Rare outpaced Nintendo with the Bear and Bird and filled their world with British humour and pathos.

Monkey Island 2:  LeChuck's Revenge

2. Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge

The funniest, warmest and most brilliantly written game of the past 30 years. It even has a controversial ending.

Transport Tycoon

3. Transport Tycoon

Chris Sawyer's masterpiece took the best bits of Sim City (transportation) and built a game around competition and planning. I just love it.

BioShock

4. BioShock

An astonishing game in every way. Bleak, dark and foreboding Rapture just oozes atmosphere. The story, characters and rich narrative bring video games to a whole new level of digital entertainment.

Project Gotham Racing 2

5. Project Gotham Racing 2

The best racing game of all time, bar none. Perfect balance, beautiful city locations, and the series' best tracks.

Professor Layton and the Curious Village

6. Professor Layton and the Curious Village

A marriage of a brilliant story, clever puzzles and a whacky assortment of characters. Simply wonderful.

Red Dead Redemption

7. Red Dead Redemption

Truly memorable vistas and genuinely emotional experiences in this great homage to classic Sam Peckepah and Sergio Leone westerns. The best open world game.

Burnout Paradise

8. Burnout Paradise

Quite simply the best open-world racer, and a genre defining game.

Skylanders SWAP Force

9. Skylanders SWAP Force

My most played game of 2014. So mud variety and depth in the 80+ characters, in terms of they play. Beautiful to look at, huge fun to play & re-play, with as much charm and polish as the best from Nintendo. Quite brilliant.

Minecraft

10. Minecraft

Once it gets its claws into you, there is no way to escape. Electronic Lego!
