Was Half-Life 2 really the most important game of the last decade?
Topic.
In my opinion there are two other games that are more influential. Halo: CE and Grand Theft Auto III.
GTA 3 literally changed the landscape of gaming. It created the first truly engaging sand box on a console.
I like Halo more, but GTA 3 was the most important game of the last decade.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] PR1M3 R1B Yeah, GTA3 and Halo were more important, but they're just outside of the timeframe. I'm really surprised Resident Evil 4 wasn't included. It basically set the mold for modern third-person shooters as we know them nowadays, and it's also a great game with fantastic level design and pacing that has yet to be rivaled. I don't think Half-Life 2 was all that important in the long run. Great game and I love it, but it didn't have the impact of something like RE4, WoW, Wii Sports, or Call of Duty 4.[/quote]Nobody has ever been more right. Resident Evil 4 SHOULD have, at least, been in the nominees, it influenced a lot of the current TPS such as Gears of War or Dead Space.
