Destructoid’s Greatest Video Games of the Decade
posted by The Joe
Destructoid is the only video game site I follow regularly, and their Best of the Decade list is by far the best I’ve encountered. Their #1 pick is what I consider the greatest work of video game art ever devised, and Mother 3 made the Top 3. The only slight problem is that they only choose one game from each series, which kind of screws GTA III, Metal Gear Solid 2, and God of War. Also, I’d personally replace Final Fantasy IX with Chrono Cross and find a place for Rez. But whatever. Onto the list!
