So here is a part two continuation of my top 30 games of all-time!

25. The Orange Box (Xbox 360)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
What do you get when you combine Half-life, Team Fortress 2, and Portal all into one game? Thats right you get.............The.....Orange Box? What's Orange about it? Who cares. This game is flat-out amazing. This was the first time I have ever played a Half-Life game and let me tell you they were great. The story is nice, the graphics are pretty good, and the gameplay is intense. Team Fortress 2 also surprisingly offers some of the best multiplayer to date for the 360, and for any console. It's addictive and has the charm that makes you want to play over and over again. There are several types of really different classes to play that just hooks you and gives great change when you tired of playing one class. Also Portal is one of the most original, and addictive games in a long time. I would pay $30 for that alone.So there you have it. Part 2 of my Top 30 Games of All-Time. I know there will be some disagreement but I hope you all enjoyed it for the most part.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
24. Banjo Kazooie (N64)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
This was the very first Rare game I played. I have to admit I was nervous when I picked this up from my friend wondering if it was worth my time to play. Let me tell you it was. I have now beat this game on the N64 and Xbox Live Arcade. It has great charm, fun gameplay, and great graphics. There really isn't a very adventurous story but for what it lacks in story it makes up for in gameplay. Your goal is to collect jiggies these puzzle pieces which unlock new levels and allow you to advance further in the game. The enemies are great and varied throughout every level, and the boss battles are descently memorable. For such an odd premise this game pretty much delivers a solid experience and I recommend any who haven't played this to go buy it right now. Give it a try!__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
23. Super Smash Brothers Brawl (Wii)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
The best SSB game to date. It boasts the largest cast of characters in any SSB game yet, and has some of the best, and the most lovable characters from the other two games along with several new and highly anticipated characters. The gameplay is very balanced and each character has it's strengths and weaknesses. Even when you get to a player that just spams one move with Kirby or Pit there is always an obvious way to beat them depending on the stage your on. it also adds, for once, a storyline called the Subspace Emissary where you go through many different types of levels with different characters. This is one way of unlocking the extra characters in the game for multiplayer. The graphics are the best out of any game on the Wii to date and it has endless hours of replay value. I'm sure you've all played it at least once.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
22. Contra 3 (SNES)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
I have to admit at first I hated this game. It was so brutally difficult that I just wanted to through a controller through my window. Then it hit me. I finally started to get the hang of it and the game became awesome. It is very fast paced and intense. There is NEVER a slow or resting moment in the entire game. The enemies are ruthless, and you have next to no health...... I love it! I realized that this just made the game so much better. If it was just an average game with an easy difficulty would it be as good as it is? Probably not. The difficulty challenged us to beat it and teased us causing many upon many of people to try and conquer this beast.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
21. Kingdom Hearts (PS2)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
Those of you that know me well enough will be very surprised to see this game as #21 on my list.I promise the goods are coming. I am a huge fan of Kingdom Hearts and have done almost everything possible to do. We all grew up on Disney so finally a great RPG came that we all could relate too. The characters were memorable and the story was great. It also had many of the lovable characters from FInal Fantasy also. It had unique gameplay and a great opening cutscene haha. It was a lengthy game to for Disney and had several side boss fights at the same time. While the game is sometimes linear due to the lack of side quests the main storyline is enough to hook you, and it has some very great arena fights at the Olympic Colliseum. There are several tournaments to enter into and The Hades Cup has over 50 battles with some great boss fights in it too.
