Alright kidos! This week's top 5 is: Best games of 2000-2010. This means every game between 2000 and 2010 are entitled to this top 5. For me, however, mine are:

5. Elder Scrolls IV. The turning point of RPGs in my opinion.

4. Gears of War 1. Incredible graphics when this first released for the 360.

3. Call of Duty 4. What made multiplayer today so popular.

2. Mass Effect 2. Just an all around fantastic game.

1. Halo: Combat Evolved. The game to start the revolution of FPS gaming. Everything about that game was so good.

Maybe it's a bad thing that COD 4 made multiplayer popular

This isn't a definitive list, nor are these in any specific order, but these are the best games I could think of at this time:

5. Call of Duty - This game got me hooked on multiplayer. The Call of Duty series is nothing like it used to be however. I feel bad for those who haven't experienced the chaos that was 64-person class-based multiplayer awesomeness.

4. Resident Evil 4 - This game reinvented the beloved horror franchise. When I saw it on the cover of Game Informer years ago, I knew I was gonna love the finished product. This game was the sole reason I bought a Gamecube.

3. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater - This game gave me a reason to own a PS2. Setting in motion the events that would occur in every following Metal Gear, this game is a must play for any Metal Gear fan.

2. Halo 2 - If Halo: CE was the reason to own an Xbox, this game was the reason to own Xbox Live. No further explanation needed.

1. Half-Life 2 - This game justified the purchase of a few thousand dollar pc when it launched in 2004. I'm still waiting, as well as many others, for an announcement of HL2: Episode 3 though. Seriously Gabe Newell, what the hell is up with that?!
