TOP 5 GAMES THIS GENERATION

After experiencing the gaming utopia that was E3, ThEvolution Network has decided to reveal the best games of this generation for each major platform. Despite the strong opinions and proclamations that are generated from E3, each major manufacturer displayed some incredibly new software that is just around the corner and trust us when we say, it is not good to be a fanboy. From Dead Space: Extraction and The Conduit exclusively for the Nintendo Wii and God Of War 3, Uncharted 2, MAG and Heavy Rain exclusively for the PS3 to Splinter Cell: Conviction, Alan Wake, HALO 3: ODST and Shadow Complex exclusively for the Xbox 360, the near future of gaming is looking rather ridiculous and we didn’t even mention the multiplatform titles.
With a bright future ahead us, let’s take a look back at the top 5 games this generation from each platform that has stood head and shoulders above the competition.

The Xbox 360 which launched late 2005 has definitely offered an incredible next-gen gaming experience. With a large list of great titles, it was rather difficult to choice the top 5 games on the Xbox 360 to date. However, after much arguing and debating, we have settled on a list that while still debatable these 5 games cannot be denied as great titles.

Even though the Playstation 3 entered this generation of consoles to a rather shaky start, Sony has undoubtedly made the playing field even when it comes to offering amazing software that is currently available today. Again the PS3 created yet another hard-boiled debate as it was tough choosing the top 5 titles today on the black behemoth. These titles are debatable but their is no denying their triple A status.
