Well since it's 2009 and the 1st decade of the new century is almost over, I want to know from you guys, what game do you think deserves to be the game of the decade? It can be from any year (2000-today).

I'm gonna say Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

It was the sandbox game of the decade where you can do an unlimited amount of things, and where the plot was pretty good.

The only bad part about GTA:SA was the graphics, which looked like an early PS2 game.

Ooooo....that one is a good choice. That game was awesome. The only problem is the graphics. It didn't look so great. That's all I gotta say about how much it sucks. GTA: San Andreas is the game of the year in 2004 in my opinion.

Fallout 3
It was a release that backed 2 classic games and was made by Bethesda so it brought in elder scrolls elements. the modding kit was also released with it so there's constantly more game made by other people.

I think the game of the decade is Halo 3 so far.

Metal Gear Solid 4 is my game of forever at the moment, so I suppose it would also have to be my game of the decade.

Of its time, my vote would have to be for Kingdom Hearts... it was so different than any other games of its time... I mean c'mon, Disney characters? Who knew they could make them awesome again :D

There are alot of great choices that you could associate with this honor. I am not big into following the major titles in the video game scene. I just buy whatever I think look scool from my own personal research.

I think Final Fantasy X has a very strong case.

At this point, I think I want to say Halo: Combat Evolved. It basically set the stage for almost every FPS made this decade, and set the standards for what a good next-gen game should be like.

For me.

It has to be Halo: Combat Evolved.

There will be no other game that will trigger the spark for amazing console shooters in the future.

It also spawned one heck of a franchise, saved the Xbox, supported the backbone of Xbox Live, and remains one of the most played multi player games of all time.

You speak the truth. Everything would have been so different if not for Halo.

I'd have to say either Braid, Cave Story or Portal.

Cave Story, there doesn't even really need to be much dispute over. The game is flawless is most respects, not to mention its outstanding story, beautiful sense of nostalgia, and nearly bug-free prgramming. And the fact that it's made by one person makes the feat all the more amazing.

Braid is just a beautiful accompishment. The time travel elements woven into the soothing atmosphere and gorgeous music, on top of the most genious game ending probably in the history of video games makes for an experience that only comes around once in a decade.

Portal is a relatively short game for Valve's of making long games, like Half-Life. 2 hours was all they needed however, to ensure the portal gun as one of the most innovative new leaps in technology this decade. Those two hours were also enough time to secure the Faithful Companion Cube, GLaDOS, and the cake into our hearts :)

Sorry, I could only include one picture :(

It'd probably have to be something well know.
Like Halo: Combat Evolved.
Or Half Life 2.

I think I'm going to have to agree here too. Not because HL2 was an amazing game (which it was) but because of all the fun ass mods that come with the game.

You're cooler than me.

Deciding the best game in ten years? Tough desicion right there.

Anyway, I'm gonna go with MGS4, mostly because there probably won't be another game like it in the near future.

Looks like Halo 1 and 3 are the best since I'm seeing a lot of comments about those 2 games.

Gears of War 2 or Fable

Gears of War 2 is a great third person shooter thats really fun and addicting

Fable is a great non-linear role playing game that was the first ever game where you could get married
