100 Greatest XBox Games

With the final batch of backwards-compatible games landing on Xbox One, and the promise of four generations of Xbox games being playable on the next-gen Project Scarlett, we felt it was the perfect time to sit back and look out over our domain of brilliant games.

As you’ll see from the mere 100 games we’ve picked to be our Greatest Xbox Games, Microsoft’s console has a super rich legacy of titles that we’ve enjoyed in the 18 years since we first fell in love with that first, hefty black box. The best thing about this list is that you won’t need to dust off your old consoles to play any of these classics from all three generations of Xbox – via the magic of backwards compatibility, you can currently play them all on Xbox One. It wasn’t easy narrowing the list down, and there are so many great games that fell just outside our top 100, but we highly recommend all the games championed over the next few pages. So get stuck in!

100 SUPERHOT

PUBLISHER SUPERHOT TEAM DEVELOPER SUPERHOT TEAM RELEASE 2016 FORMAT XBOX ONE

It might appear as though you’re looking at an early development version of an FPS, but that’s all part of Superhot’s charm. Those polygonal heads are nonetheless satisfying to split apart with a headshot, and the gameplay itself is truly innovative. Time only moves when you do, enabling you to choreograph your gunfights with satisfying precision.

99 PANZER DRAGOON ORTA

PUBLISHER SEGA DEVELOPER SMILEBIT RELEASE 2002 FORMAT XBOX

A flaming rollercoaster ride with spectacle. Introducing the Xbox to a breed of rail-shooter the console had never seen before, Orta helped Panzer Dragoon claw out of the shadows when it appeared the series had ended with the Dreamcast’s demise.

98 ELITE DANGEROUS
