Loved the Final Fantasy entries!!

So far, the only explosion I've witnessed is FF9, and Brahne looks more hideous in the TV. (You forgot about Alexandria! Oh wait, it wasn't really exploded.)

Haha, "The Meteor called down by white-haired villain/geek sex symbol Sephiroth."

something really big always gets destroyed in final fantasy games, think about it.

WTF is this shit? Damn, I know it must be hard to come up with ideas but...ugh, I don't even wanna listen t TDAR 52 now, this shit is so repetitive and boring now...Megaton was in last week's top 7...

As much of a long-time fan I am of GR, this is really stretching it. It simply isn't enjoyable, top 7s like this...

I LOVE blowing up Megaton.

No Lahan? From the looks of these lists, no one at the GR staff has played a lick of Xenogears.

Just sayin, Fallout 3 wasn't mentioned in the top 7 for 2 straight weeks. It has been mentioned for 3 straight weeks.Two of them involved blowing up Megaton, and last weeks talked about the children of the atom, located, dramatic pause, in Megaton!

Oh man. I remember when my town was blown up. Probably one of the worst days I've ever had. Thanks for bringing up sad memories Mikel.

Nice article Mikel. Saw the title and my first thought was Megaton is number one for the same reason you gave, and all the Final Fantasy games for filler.

Apparently, im just generally a dick.

they shouldve had the town of Neat from the Legend of Dragoon, i mean it didnt explode, but it was anahailated by an ally that you get later on XD

Kind of a weird topic, but I can roll.
It was pretty cool, nice work.

Nice article.

It never occurred to me before, but damn do Final Fantasy games have lots of exploding towns.

But what about Kvatch? You know, from Oblivion?
DBAX47  - 6 months 18 days ago 
i was a little worried that fallout 3 wouldnt be numero uno
VyseTheTetrisdork  - 6 months 18 days ago 
I wonder how next week's Top 7 will integrate Fallout 3 and Megaton. Then, we'll have a whole month of discussion of Fallout 3 and nukes!

Damn, I gotta play Fallout 3.
ssj4raditz  - 6 months 18 days ago 
Wow, I have witnessed every single one of these first-hand!
GamesRadarMikelReparaz  - 6 months 18 days ago 
Kvatch? Kvatch is like a tire fire; it never blows up, it's just always burning.

Lahan was in the running, too, but was ultimately edged out so I could shoehorn in more Final Fantasy. My bad.
MrArmageddon  - 6 months 18 days ago 
I get the feeling you guys only chose this top 7 to get to talk about blowing up Megaton some more.
