A Listmania! list by rik wharfe "rik aka TheCrabShack" (England. UK)
 
ICO
1.  ICO by Sony
The list author says:
  "Beautiful. Awe inspiring in small doses. A truly atmospheric otherworldly treasure. As it doesn't follow the generic blueprint for action/adventure it tends to be overlooked. Which is a shame.."
£44.95   Used & New from: £10.98
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (99 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Okami (PS2)
2.  Okami (PS2) by Capcom
The list author says:
  "An eastern inspired coveted Gem. Equal in entertainment, humour and style. Refreshingly different. Please bare with it. You will be generously rewarded. A feast for the eyes. enormous and engaging"
£8.00   Used & New from: £4.70
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (57 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Breath of Fire 3 (PSP)
3.  Breath of Fire 3 (PSP) by Capcom
The list author says:
  "Traditional, exciting and compulsively addictive. Its loving and strangely comforting...stay with me. It follows the RPG ideology with panache. Bizarrely...for its genre it is incredibly replayable"
£8.34   Used & New from: £3.68
4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (6 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Final Fantasy VII Platinum
4.  Final Fantasy VII Platinum by Sony
The list author says:
  "The only thing with a game of this magnitude is that it has such a huge following, people begin to reject it and it gets branded 'over hyped’. It’s unambiguously, inextricably not. A pure masterpiece"
Used & New from: £15.95
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (280 customer reviews) | 2 customer discussions

Alundra
5.  Alundra by Psygnosis
The list author says:
  "Tackles subjects such as death, despair, sorrow and loss with a certain realism. Constantly waiting for 'video game optimism' which thankfully..rarely appears. Individual, memorable and difficult !!"

4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (12 customer reviews)

Flashback (Mega Drive)
6.  Flashback (Mega Drive) by U.S. Gold

Vagrant Story (PS)
7.  Vagrant Story (PS) by Crave

Shadow of the Colossus (PS2)
8.  Shadow of the Colossus (PS2) by Sony

  "The sequel thats a prequel to Ico. Impressively epic. Full of grandeur and imagination. the sense of adventure and exploration are unparalleled. Contains the same feeling of mystery that permeated Ico"
£29.95   Used & New from: £14.00
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (128 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Resident Evil 4: Limited Edition (PS2)
9.  Resident Evil 4: Limited Edition (PS2) by Capcom
The list author says:
  "Defining achievement for the 'survival horror' genre. Chilling, intense and strangely humorous. number 5 unfortunately missed the mark where number 4 struck gold. Unnerving brutal zombie romp"
£29.95   Used & New from: £1.79
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (53 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Fallout 3 (PS3)
10.  Fallout 3 (PS3) by Bethesda
The list author says:
  "Utterly enormous. The G.O.T.Y strategy guide is an object of beauty. Redefines the term 'free-roam'. A masterpiece in its own right. Equally as brutal and disturbing as it is compelling and engaging"
£8.99   Used & New from: £2.49
4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (124 customer reviews) | 8 customer discussions
