We need a good multi-player game based in the Star Wars universe!!! Can't wait for Modern Warfare 2; it will blow ODST out of the water.

You know what would be even better? If each item on the list linked to its marketplace page.

In other news "yay" finally I can login to the blog. I have been unable to login for a few weeks, it just kept taking me to the gamertag changing page even when I deleted cookies and tried a different browser.

Man I missed these lists. Highlights:

- Gears 2 and GTA above L4D still boggles the mind, but then again when it comes to longevity of games and multiplayer I am way partial to FPS not third person games. Which might explain why I haven't picked up Red Faction even though I had a blast with the demos.

- I'd love to see how SF4, Madden, Red Faction, etc are doing...can't we get a top 25?

- Hope to see Fallout 3 back up there after Point Lookout. Will be downloading it for this weekend.

- How is 1 vs 100 doing? It is really fun! And free!

- Lastly, as a long time former MTG player, the arcade game is fun, just a bit too much over simplified. No real upkeep work, no way to respond to stacked combat damage, no way to really edit the decks (keep it at 60 and use unlocked cards). Still a fun way to get a fix.

@HaloKhan

Heh heh... The Shadow's been runn'in a long time man.

@AnEternalEnigma

I guess it is a name design [THING]. I was confused too, I thought my friends wee playing a demo at launch. "[ ]" trademarked? Oh really? I was not interested in it until I was comparing versions and saw the 'body surfing'. Seems fun.

Burnout Paradise in top 10 next round! Than Jansen car is off the chain - it hovers! And that other car is slow, but just totally Ghostbusters!

Still don't enjoy World at War enough to justify putting Microsoft Points down on any new maps for the game, but perhaps if they are ever discounted or put as a deal of the week I'll consider it.

I am surprised Red Faction: Guerilla didn't make it to the top ten, as well as Rock Band 2's sudden appearance. Still have to find the money to buy the latter...

Shadowrun didn't make the top 10?!

@AnEternalEnigma -

"[PROTOTYPE]" is the official title, not "Prototype". It shows up like that in the dashboard, on people's gamecards, and on the box itself. They even put have that "dumb formatting" trademarked.

They didn't just randomly choose to have it show up like that on this list.

Didn't expect Rocket Riot to crawl in so low, it's actually rather charming, if flawed.

Saying that, Codeglue gave it to me for free and I have to say, I wouldn't have wanted to have paid for it.

Later single-player at least is one of the worst cases of artifical difficulty I have ever seen, and in multiplayer you'll soon find the best tactic is to hog the top of the screen and rapid-fire weak rockets to create a "rain".

There are people out there who still haven't bought Castle Crashers yet!?
