#10: “League of Legends” (2009)
Top 5 Things You Never Knew About League of Legends
Online battle arenas are often at the front and centre of the gaming community these days, and while Dota 2 (xref) would indeed be a worthy contender, we gotta give this spot to LoL for garnering more votes on our suggestion page – so if this angers you, get out and vote budday! Whether you’re a casual fan whose just trying to increase the level of your favourite character or are so deep into the nexus that you’re aiming for the World Championship, once you step onto the battleground its rather tricky to leave, lest you fancy a blade in the back courtesy of Katarina.
#9: “Pokemon Go” (2016)
Top 10 Pokemon Video Games
Who doesn’t want to be the very best like no one ever was? Taking the world by storm upon initial release, the urge to actually go outside and be able to catch Pokemon was so strong with some people that not only did it lead to the occasional human stampede. With a new pocket monster literally everywhere you went, the urge to head out in search of that elusive Dratini or evolve your current team captivated many, many fans. Its scary to think what will happen if Mewtwo should appear.
#8: “Animal Crossing: New Leaf” (2012)
Top 10 Craziest Things People Have Done in Animal Crossing
Completing mundane tasks inside a quiet little village has never been so much fun. After being given the position of town mayor, players will not only end up investing hours into customising their avatar as well as their living space, but also the environment around them. Helping out citizens, investing in new properties; creating your dream town may seem like an arduous task, but with the game’s level of detail it’s far from a chore. That’s not even mentioning the 3DS’ online capabilities, letting you easily transition and explore towns created by other players. You’ll be spending so much time in your new home that your real one will seem like an afterthought.
#7: “Diablo II” (2000)
The 10 HARDEST Diablo IV Bosses
Bringing back the dark fantasy setting that made the original Diablo such a hit, this gothic sequel blends together an improved item system, diverse character classes, the inclusion of a hardcore setting, and most importantly of all; the option to play through the entire game in online multiplayer. On the cusp of the MMORPG revolution that would soon follow, it’s easy to see how a digital Dungeons and Dragons-esque experience would cause friends to band together and devote their time to take up arms against the ultimate evil that is Diablo.
#6: “The Sims” series (2000-)
Top 10 Most ADDICTIVE Multiplayer Games
There’s nothing quite like playing god in the lives of your favourite virtual family. Only growing bigger with each entry in the franchise, not to mention all those expansions, players were given the chance to create the ideal life for their Sims by influencing their careers, romantic interests and life goals, not to mention build some pretty awesome houses. With the ever increasing size of the sandbox environment, the variety of jobs and household items, you’d be forgiven for losing a few days tending to your new family. Then again if you’re just in the mood to get rid of them you can always give Death a call.
#5: “Civilization V” (2010)
You can’t just create an entirely new culture and not expect to invest an obscene amount of time cultivating and developing them into the world’s next superpower. As one of the longest running and most popular 4X video game series, this latest entry was packed to the brim with content, and that’s excluding the replay-ability factor and expansions. Whether you rise to the pinnacle of humanity via diplomacy and social convention or through the sheer might of military force, each civilization you build is guaranteed to be a unique experience in itself that you can pour hours into. Just as long you don’t get itchy trigger fingers with all those nukes.
#4: “The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim” (2011)
Top 10 Elder Scrolls Games
As the Dragonborn, you’re tasked with stopping the world from falling into the fiery clutches of Alduin as well as preventing a bloody civil war, and that takes time! What’s so thrilling about Bethesda’s magnum opus is that you can ignore the main questline entirely and still have so much epic fantasy left to revel in. From hunting down Dragon Shouts, completing various miscellaneous missions, slicing apart every dragon you come across, joining one of the many, many factions or just getting blindly drunk; your stay in Skyrim won’t be a short one. Fallout 4 (xref)offered a similar experience, but in this case we’re going to have to choose Sovngarde over The Commonwealth.
#3: “Candy Crush Saga” (2012)
We’ve all been there, we find ourselves thinking that a little match-three puzzle game will be an easy way to kill some time…and before you know it you’re taking every opportunity to have another chance to line up those candies and clear the board in the hope to reaching the next level. Its simplicity is its greatest hook, the fact that it’s free to play is just the cherry on top, although the In App Purchases push this game to dangerously addictive levels. With over two-thousand five hundred levels just waiting to be conquered, this particular video game addiction is pretty easy to slip into. Just be careful with your credit card.
#2: “Minecraft” (2011)
Top 10 Minecraft Ideas That Were Left Out Of The Game
In its inception, this title was nothing more than a sandbox game that allowed players to explore and build their own little world. With Survival and Creative mode offering the initial bulk of the game, it wasn’t long before players were slaying the infamous Ender Dragon and building some very impressive constructs. With the introduction of online multiplayer, however, the game has taken on a whole new dimension with user-generated content, allowing players to expand their Biomes to new heights, and with mods constantly pouring in it’s no wonder players are practically getting a different game every time they play. Before we reveal our number one pick here are few honourable mentions. “Rocket League” (2015) “Angry Birds” (2009) “Tetris” (1984)
#1: “World of Warcraft” (2004-)
World of Warcraft's Biggest Controversies
Standing tall as the King of MMORPGs, World of Warcraft has been enrapturing gamers for well over a decade now, and show no signs of slowing down. Will a rich, lore-filled fantasy world, players not only have a huge bulk of quests to complete, a wide array of customisable items for their avatar, but also expansion packs that feature a massive amount of content. Throw in the essential factor of multiplayer so you can take on the likes of the Lich King and Burning Legion with your friends and you have the making of a game that won’t be letting you take a break for real life anytime soon.
