Yes, indeed. We know you wanted it. But as the old saying goes, be careful what you wish for. Naturally, you might have a few questions. Like, crap! What are your very own top 25 Xbox games of all time? We'd like you to try this little experiment. Be ruthless, be mean; cut out all the games that just don't make the list. Can you do it? Can you create a top 25 Xbox list of your own and not include some great ones? Or not make it controversial? On a slightly deeper level, ask yourself this: What makes the number two game different than the number one title? Or the number three game better than the number four game? Once you've done it, compare your list to ours. Now, ask the biggest question: What got number one? And why? Can you defend it against the entire Internet?
We can. Or at least we'll die trying. In this five-day roll-out, we present our final list of the best Xbox games of all time. Just so you know, we sought advice from several past Xbox editors. David Clayman and Hilary Goldstein provided their opinions, though neither fully agreed with the final cut. For that matter, sorting out the top 25 wasn't as hard as figuring out the precise order. But Erik, Jon and I (Doug) spent many hours looking at, considering, and voting on this final selection.
We didn't just pick these games and leave the room for a beer either. We hashed it out. We bitched and argued, and beat each other to a pulp. After the fisticuffs ended, we used some healthy guidelines. So, when you start your rant, make sure you understand the context in which we made our picks. The top 25 games were selected by looking at each game's original impact, depth, replayability, innovation, and that nearly impossible quality -- longevity, or how it's held up over the years.
Each relevant IGN channel is also writing its top 25 all-time games this week too. Make sure to check the Game Boy Advance, GameCube, PC, and PlayStation 2 sites for their countdowns all week long (see individual links below).
Finally, 'if' you disagree with our list or would like to offer your opinion by the time the countdown has ended on Friday, write in to the Xbox Team.
Xbox Original Games List That Work On 360
25) Jet Set Radio Future
Developer:Smilebit
Publisher:SEGA
Year Released: 2002
Synopsis: You've got to have soul. Nearly every Xbox owner knows that thanks to Jet Set Radio Future, along with SEGA GT, getting the Xbox pack-in treatment. Microsoft thought it was good enough to help sell consoles and, although JSRF may have been a bit out there and unique for the action loving Xbox fans, it certainly delivered on its promise. The Xbox sequel to the Dreamcast's Jet Grind Radio didn't just provide gamers with a bigger and better looking city to grind, tag and trick their way through, it took every criticism leveled at the first game and reworked the way the game played. The result was a much friendlier and fast paced game that had more style and funk than George Clinton.
Jet Set Radio Future is so unique that the only other game just like it is Jet Grind Radio. For that alone it deserves to be on this list, but JSRF has the whole package. It's fun, stylistic, visually impressive, and has a fantastic soundtrack. Beyond that, JSRF is a huge reason the hardcore SEGA audience embraced the Xbox despite its new kid on the block status. Long live Professor K.
24) Forza Motorsport
Developer: Turn 10
Publisher:Microsoft Game Studios
Year Released: 2005
Synopsis: The first few waves of Xbox games were electric, irregular, and even a little sketchy. But as Microsoft grew as a manufacturer and publisher, it found its feet. In 2005, the publisher's focus gave birth to a competitive simulation racer that could content with Sony's Gran Turismo series. The internal Microsoft team behind Forza were admitted GT huge fans, but like everyone else they grew tired of Polyphony Digital's redundancy and lack of change.
On the innovation scale, Forza ranks answered long-burning GT issues, giving players the ability to play the single-player campaign offline or online, giving cars three levels of damage, creating the Drivatar, which learned drivers' patterns and could be commanded to race challenges for you, and creating hundreds of leaderboards (not to mention putting a racer in the car).
Perhaps more fun than anything else was its sophisticated and deep customization system that inspired people do crazy things with their cars. Forza is perhaps the only other racer on the consoles that was able to re-create the magic in GT in a different and compelling way.
23) Fight Night Round 2
Developer:Electronic Arts Chicago
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Year Released: 2005
Synopsis: Electronic Arts toyed for many years with Knockout Kings before the strange but lovable Rocky game caught our attention. And while EA might not be pushing the envelope with sports now, over the last five years the publisher underwent a small revolution in its approach to all sports games in features, physics, and mechanics. With Fight Night Round 2, EA took the previous year's excellent first effort and went to town like a mad, inspired elf on Christmas Eve.
Visually, EA delivered stunning, real-life boxer lookalikes with Winky Wright, Roy Jones, and cover boy Bernard Hopkins. The blood, sweat, skin textures and motion capture were exemplary. The refreshing cutman mini-game opened the game up a little between rounds, and while the announcers were only decent, the sound effects -- whether they were perfectly connecting haymakers, gut punches or perfect knockout punches -- rang true. Aside from the graphics, EA hand-delivered the ability to punch while moving, the clench, and specialized analog controls that worked like a champ. The haymaker system was a huge boon.
22) Beyond Good and Evil
Developer:Ubisoft Montpellier
Publisher: Ubisoft
Year Released: 2003
Synopsis:Unusual, quirky and endearing, Ubisoft's Beyond Good and Evil is familiar in some respects, but entirely different than any other action-adventure game. Like any developer intent on creating a 3D adventure title, Michel Ancel and his team in Montpellier, France, borrowed liberally from the book of Zelda. Only Beyond Good and Evil is really one of the first 'activist' games, starring Jade, a woman of color photographer, as the lead character.
The story is well told, the graphics are artfully handled, and the sound is outstanding. The narrative is unique to gaming. Jade is recruited to help IRIS, an underground organization working to prove that the Alpha Sections are not at all what they seem, to expose a massive conspiracy. She and IRIS try to counter the Alpha Sections's propaganda, spread by a corrupt media, by disseminating evidence of the truth. Her handy camera grabs photos, naturally, but also scans data that uncovers information relevant to the story, a central part of the game's attraction. The charmingly gruff Pey'j, a half-human, half-pig works in tandem with Jade to solve problems and defeat bosses and becomes one of the most endearing characters in the game. How? Through carefully handled dialogue and smart editing. The use of logic and physical puzzles and a nice range of vehicles round out the game, which is presented and told with craft and skill.
Xbox Original Games List 2017
21) Panzer Dragoon Orta
Developer: Smilebit
Publisher: SEGA
Year Released: 2003
Synopsis: The Panzer Dragoon series is almost legendary around the IGN offices. It began on the Saturn and reached an audience far too small for games as good as these. When SEGA gave up on the console market and became a third party publisher, Panzer Dragoon Orta was amongst the first titles announced for the Xbox. Fans would not be disappointed.
The pinnacle of rail shooters, Panzer Dragoon Orta took the series to new heights. Even now at the end of the Xbox's life, Panzer Dragoon Orta remains one of the most beautiful games on the console with fantastic design chock full of vibrant imagery mingled with post apocalyptic despair. Fantastic visuals aside, Orta succeeded in delivering deep shooting mechanics the way no rail shooter had in the past, or has since. You can zip through the game a few short sittings, but then you'll revisit it over and over again as your skills improve and those seemingly impossible targets begin to open up. Rail shooters may be all but dead, but at least they went out on the highest note possible.
