some games will just never leave our
hearts and minds and luckily we’ll still
be good when we revisit them welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
games that are most likely to stand the
test of time before we begin we publish
new videos every day so be sure to
subscribe for more great content for
this list we’re looking the most recent
video aims to come out that we’re sure
will leave their mark on history for
years to come bear in mind we will only
be including games that came out in the
last 10 years so games like Tetris and
pac-man that have already proven their
timelessness will not be included number
10
uncharted 2 among thieves oh should I be
flattered or worried there have been
many games throughout the last few years
that have tried to create the video game
equivalent of a Hollywood blockbuster
and uncharted 2 has remained a firm
example of how to do it right not only
were we given a story of epic
proportions with one of gaming’s most
lovable protagonists but we were also
treated to one of the most epic video
game moments of all time from the very
opening with Nathan Drake hanging off of
that train car you’re taking on an
adventure that’s one of the most
rewarding to date oh good idea
number 9 super mario galaxy 2 this world
famous plumber has been on many
adventures in the 30 plus years he’s
been around and his escapades in the
vast reaches of space are actually some
of his best while Mario’s first galactic
adventure was a grand and fresh
experience his second adventure was
refined and gave players more of what
they loved
[Music]
with mind-bending platforming a range of
unique power-ups at his disposal and the
return of everyone’s favorite green
dinosaur Yoshi Super Mario Galaxy 2 is
truly out of this world just nudging out
a certain Odyssey of Mario’s recently
been on
[Music]
number eight Batman Arkham City and you
never considered that all this is your
fault when it comes to the superhero
games of today the Arkham games stand
out is the true example of excellence in
gameplay and design moving forward from
the terrific Arkham Asylum we got to see
Batman plunge even further into the
madhouse with the streets of Gotham
opening up to us allowing players to
strike even more fear into criminals of
with both old and new villains making
memorable appearances we were also given
an array of new gadgets and as well as
more of the incredible combat in self
gameplay we’ve come to expect from the
series number seven The Last of Us don’t
go near the doors just just stand back
there this is certainly not the happiest
story to come out of video games but
it’s undoubtedly one of the most moving
while the Last of Us is much more
shocking and disturbing the Naughty
Dog’s Uncharted series it’s still
arguably their finest achievement Sarah
[Music]
baby the game takes us on a long and
near hopeless journey where Joel and
Ellie must survive and fight against
those who prey on the weak whether they
be alive or undead from the stellar
story to the character development to
the tense combat in gameplay it’s a
title that’ll have you on the edge of
your seat one moment tendon tears the
next I think yeah thank you – you would
have been having good friends
number 6 Minecraft
[Music]
if there is one game in recent memory
that has encouraged players to use their
imagination its minecraft it’s no
understatement that this game of digging
collecting and crafting has left a huge
impression on both gamers and creators
alike and while the game might not
provide you with any real set of goals
it does give you an entire world that
you are free to make your own whether
you’re out collecting with friends or
constructing the ultimate home there’s
always something to be made with just a
few blocks and a little creativity
number 5 The Legend of Zelda breath of
the wild The Legend of Zelda series has
received an incredible amount of praise
over its lifespan always managing to
push the boundaries of its gameplay its
story and its environments breath of the
wild is no exception winning numerous
Game of the Year awards in 2017 and
being hailed by many as the series is
best title harkening back to Zelda’s
roots while bringing with it plenty of
new tricks we got to explore the lands
of Hyrule like never before with
complete and total freedom to go
wherever you want and with new powers
and a sweet paraglider at your disposal
gamers are basically lucky to have
experienced the hero of times most
expansive and challenging journey to
date this is the way The Legend of Zelda
was always meant to be
and the way it’ll probably be remembered
number four The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt this
one might take you a while to get
through but fortunately that’s not
really an issue as the third entry in
Geralt of Rivia ‘s tail it’s evident
that CD Projekt RED pulled out all the
stops to make this game an epic
conclusion to the series with probably
the most open and lifelike fantasy world
we’ve ever seen you’ll have your hands
full as you slay deadly beasts explore
every corner of the land and undertake
an insane amount of in-depth side quests
add in the robust combat system massive
environments and an unforgettable cast
of characters and you have a game that’s
sure to be talked about for years to
come hey guys we actually did a whole
essay on why we think the witcher 3 is
the best open-world game of all time and
we did that on mojo plays which you can
find a link to like right over here so
if you want more witcher 3 goodness or
if you think that praising the witcher 3
is stupid and you hate that game and
you’re sick of hearing about it
go check out the video and there’s a
link in the description number three
portal 2
[Music]
this series is certainly one of the most
recognized video game properties in
recent years and it’s easy to see why
utilizing the iconic portal gun once
again you’re a mission to escape the
test labs of Aperture Science is made
even more insane this time around thanks
to the return of the rogue AI that is
GLaDOS you don’t know anything not only
did we get more complex and imaginative
puzzles to solve but they required that
we use new mechanics like an array of
gels and the hardlight bridge and for
the first time we got to experience
co-op play adding a new dimension of fun
to the mix coupled with the snarky and
hilarious dialogue all that’s missing
from this game is some cake
[Music]
number two Mario Kart 8 when Mario is
not try to get the princess back you can
expect to see him on the racetrack with
the rest of the gang in the Mushroom
Kingdom
over the years the series has certainly
built upon what has worked in the
previous installments with Mario Kart 8
though there’s a racing experience that
applies to both casual and hardcore fans
expanding and improving auto pawn nearly
with even more insane tracks introduced
to thanks to the game’s new anti-gravity
mechanics as well as past favorite
tracks making a remastered return it’s a
game that’s proven to be the ultimate
competitive experience for both you and
your friends oh but it also might just
ruin those friendships so you’ve been
warned number one journey
[Music]
like any great piece of art it’s often
the lasting impression on the viewer
that’s most important so it’s safe to
say that this masterpiece from the same
minds behind flower have created
something that is visually and
emotionally stunning as you venture
towards the light atop the mountain
he’ll take in all the beauty and wonder
found within each environment everything
from the way your character moves across
the sand to the random player
interactions to the inspiring soundscape
provides us with a complete experience
that needs to be played to be truly
appreciated and you’ll appreciate it for
a long time
