Best action game you have ever played?

Postby Dragonslayer88 » Fri May 30, 2003 1:53 pm

Well what is it? Remember this is best action game you have PLAYED. Not what you think should be the best action game. My fav action game is

Devil May Cry :- The controls were cool, the graphics were good, the audio contained heavy metal tracks, the actions you performed were terrific and just the whole thought of being a badass demon killer just gets me all pumped up!!

I think out of all the action games I've ever played, the most innovative and most played for me was BIONIC COMMANDO on the NES.

Far better than the arcade version it was based on. The premise, weapons and retractable arm made the game such a blast to play. To date, I have not played an action/adventure game that can match its innovation and overall perfection.

Gunstar Heroes, most definitely. It's like videogame crack. 8)

Also, if you want to consider Zombies Ate My Neighbours an action game, then that, too. ;)

Ah yes, those two games rule. Especially Gunstar Heroes. That game owned.

As far as action games go, I would have to say I really like "Alice" for PC.

More like stealth, but don't listen to me, I hardly even know what I'm talking about most of the time.

Best action game for me...

Sonic 2.

That's action, right? Or is "platformer" a completely different catagory these days?
