Half-Life 2 was released in 2004 by developer Valve as the sequel to its 1998 release Half-Life, with both games having won significant praise for their seamless integration of narrative and their realistic in-game physics. The PlayStation 2 giant-killing story Shadow of the Colossus was the runner-up in the list, while the most recent game in the top ten was 2009's Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. Alex Simmons, editor-in-chief at IGN UK, said that the last decade has been "spectacular" for gamers, predicting further progress in the coming ten years.
He said: "We expect the nature of the winning games to have evolved almost beyond recognition, with the advent of 3D and new motion controls." Do you think Half-Life 2 was the best game of the noughties?
