Topic: Playstation PushSquare Best Game Of All time Cup

So it begins the hunt for the best Playstation game of all time. There will be multiple rounds, loads of battles and hopefully run until the Summer. In the last PSBGOAT Final Fantasy 7 prevailed. Winning the overall best game of all time on any platform. This is PS specific and you can only pick games from the PS1, 2, 3, 4, PSP and Vita. Will final fantasy 7 come out on top again?

To start with;

Prologue.
Pick your 8 favourite ever ps games. A maximum of 4 games off any one platform.

This will run for the next 2 weeks until the competition begins proper. Any game picked multiple times will start the competition in round 2. Games picked once will start in round 1. Games not picked at all will be out!

Games remastered from a previous generation don't count (sonic cd / 1942 / street fighter 2 etc) but games from a previous generation with enough extra content to arguably be a new release will. Hope this makes sense. Please include the platform alongside your selection. Example - The Last of Us PS4.

If there's any issues or disagreements I've enrolled some of the forum stalwarts @BAMozzy @kyleforrester87 and @iDangerMouse_ as arbitrators of the rules - I did ask you all last year In case any problems arise (which hopefully they wont)

Get picking people - come on Ridge Racer Type 4 you can do it!

My only rule is that only games I agree with can be included

In no particular order:

• Burnout 3: Takedown (PS2)
• Portal 2 (PS3)
• Rocket League (PS4)
• Shadow of the Colossus (PS2)
• The Witness (PS4)
• Rayman Origins (PS3)
• Crash Bandicoot (PS1)
• WipEout HD (PS3)

There are so many notable games across all the PS consoles, but I think these 8 are representative of the games I've most enjoyed up to and including this year. Very tough!

Awesome, I'll post about this on the site when I get a moment.

Spyro (PS)
Castlevania SotN (PS)
Tekken 3 (PS)
WWE Hear Comes the Pain (PS2)
InFamous Second Son (PS4)
Blasto (PS)
GTA Vice City (PS2)
Suikoden 3 (PS2)

Well..

1. Final Fantasy 7 - PS1
2. Final Fantasy 9 - PS1
3. Metal Gear Solid 1 - PS1
4. Resident Evil 1 - PS1
5. Dead Space 2 - PS3
6. Fez - PS4
7. Divinity Original Sin - PS4
8. Alien Isolation - PS4

It would be a little more PS1 specific but the 4 game maximum thing limits that.

Hmmm...

Star Wars Battlefront 2 - PS2
Portal - PS3
GTA: San Andreas - PS2
Shadow of the Colossus - PS2
Burnout 3: Takedown - PS2
Just Cause 3 - PS4
GTA V - PS3
Hitman: Blood Money - PS3
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 - PS1

It was hard to choose between all of the PS2 games

Mass Effect 3 (PS3)
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves (PS3)
inFamous Second Son (PS4)
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance (PS2)
Arkham Asylum (PS3)
God of War 3 (PS3)
Crash Bandicoot (PS1)
Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3 (PS2)
Sims 2 (PS2)
Lego Star Wars 2 (PS2)

This list is compiled mostly from my childhood and shows me that the PS4 has a ways to go to be brought onto this list for games.

• Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King (PS2)
• Persona 3 FES (PS2)
• Monster Hunter (PS2)
• Okami (PS2)
• The Last Of Us (PS3)
• Uncharted 3 (PS3)
• Valkyria Chronicles (PS3)
• Vanquish (PS3)

@get2sammyb: Take your time pal, this bit is running for 2 weeks. I wont be rounding it up until later in the week too. Thanks again Sammy.

@kyleforrester87: More so incase of a stalemate or to check my maths. Also if Im pulled away (will defo happen in April due to a wedding) you can help me out. I also noticed you never picked command and conquer. Tough cull.

I think Burnout 3 has already crash moded through to round 2.

My Picks
PS1 - Final Fantasy 8
PS1 - Anna Kournikovas Smash Court Tennis
PS1 - Ridge Racer Type 4
PS2 - Disgaea 2
PS2 - Pro Evolution Soccer 4
PS3 - Mass Effect 2

PS4 - Metal Gear Solid: Phantom Pain

Man that's tough. I bet I've forgotten something.

My picks are-
Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back- PS1
Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal (U.S.)/Ratchet & Clank 3 (U.K)- PS2
Sly 2: Band of Thieves- PS2
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater- PS2

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves - PS3
Mass Effect 3 - PS3
Infamous: Second Son - PS4

@themcnoisy: Yeah C&C RA and Tomb Raider 1 were on the list, but neither of those can top the 4 golden oldies I already listed.

Well, if we're consistent, FF7 will have already won, but whatever.
