"While some may seem this list as slightly premature, it’s pretty safe to say that the Wii is heading into its twilight stage ahead of the Wii U’s launch, rumoured for later this year."

Video games feature many characters and beast. "Dog" characters is a common theme among some video games. In the link there's the top ten best video game dogs of all time. Check them out.

It was said that 10% of video game titles make up 90% of the industry's gross revenue. What about the other percentage of video games lacking a good name. Are they bad games? Have you ever played a game you loved that never once was advertised. Well check out this Top Ten List of Best Video Games that people never talk about.

An auteur is, in film, a director who maintains complete control over the creative process and infuses a distinct personal style in his or her works. A video game auteur is someone who manages to have games that feel distinctly theirs, with strong narratives, styles, and a loose adherence to typical conventions. They are people who create that certain kind of game you can't find by anyone but them.

"It’s hard to deny the initial appeal of the Wii. Breaking barriers with a revolutionary motion controller, Nintendo’s flagship device not only returned the company into the minds of gamers after the slumps of the N64 and GameCube, it brought video games into the homes of non-gamers. Between Wii Fit and Wii Sports, plenty have found the joy of gaming over the last four years, but that is selling the system short. From 2006 to 2010, some great games have come to the little wagglebox, and from t..."

The PlayStation 2 library featured some of the most important games ever in terms of pushing the boundaries of video games as art. Here are five of the best.

After compiling All Age Gaming's choices for the 10 best PS3 and Xbox 360 games, All Age Gaming's John Elliott delves into the library of games available for the Nintendo Wii and selects his Top 10 Wii games to date. Found out his choices after the jump.

"Folks, we are in the seventh generation of gaming and are being amazed by the raw power of the Playstation 3. There have been many people (including us) who are amazed at the technology behind the Cell processor and the massive storage space of the blu ray disc. All of us who have bought the Playstation 3 must have bought many blockbuster games along with it. Games like Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Killzone 2, Little Big Planet and the more recent Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. But ..."

"A couple times over the past few years, we've decided to sit down and take a good, cold, hard look at the PlayStation 2's library and select the best of the best to let you know what our favorites were (and are). Even though the system is fighting with every last breath to stay alive, it's still surprising to us that new games continue to creep into our list. So, because it's been a while, we figured it was time to look at our picks again and update our choices for the best 25 PlayStation 2 g..."

"As goes with all creative works, there's nothing new under the sun. At least that's what they say.

Video games are no different. How many times have you played a game and asked "haven't I done this somewhere before?" And the chances are you probably have. A lot of great ideas are recycled again and again for countless reasons (mostly due to marketing, of course).

While some of these games parallel their respective host title, several actually managed to break away, finding their own suc..."

"If there’s one thing that videogames do well – perhaps more so than any form of digital entertainment around – it’s immersion. The ability to suck in an individual not just through giving them complete control over their actions, but more pertinently, through the surroundings and awe-inspiring sights developers painstakingly carve and sculpt. It’s debatable that this sense of captivation has only progressed, with more talented designers getting more out of increasingly powerful consoles. And ..."

Is it your top ten?

IGN members Matt Casamassina, Mark Bozon and Lucas Thomas have compiled a list of the twenty Nintendo Wii games that every Wii gamer should own.

It's well structured listing the name, publisher, develop, whether it's Wii exclusive, an overview, a profile picture and a video.

The first game on the list is Metroid Prime 3: Corruption and the last is Excite Truck.

Most of the list is a listing of the most popular games around, however, some are quite surprising.
