Because most people never played the first Mega Man, so MM2 is the first game in the series. What's wrong with you?

Anything released on the Xbox 360, Wii, or PS3. VC/PS1-PSN games don't count as from "this generation".

I would think DS and PSP should at least count. Maybe computer games released within the last 3ish years.

Playstation. The game came out almost fifteen years ago, dude.

DS and PSP count as well, of course. I always forget the handhelds.

The story follows Lara Croft as she embarks upon a quest to recover 4 meteorite stones scattered across the world.

TR3 was releasted for the PC and PlayStation

(Rules 1) Unless specifically mentioned in the question, all games include console games, handheld games, PC games...
(Rules 2) For games released "this generation", XBLA/PSN remakes do not count and any VC game does not count. XBLA/PSN originals, even ones based on previously released games (i.e. Pacman CE) do count.

By (Rules 1), TR3 as a PC game, is a "game". By (Rules 2), since TR3 was itself not an XBLA/PSN remake, nor a VC game, it counts, since only those specific games are disqualified.

Re: (Reverse) Sheep Round 9 — Wolves at the door
 
Zoey (a female) is certainly a main character in Left 4 Dead ... now, if we are splitting hairs (as I expect we are), then the question comes down to how you interpret "the" in the question. If you feel that "the" means a game where there is only a single character to play, or if "the" allows for games where you can choose a character (though all would be considered as main - as I felt L4D does).

orangecrush 08-20-09 10:38 AM

Re: (Reverse) Sheep Round 9 — Wolves at the door
 
Zoey can be the main character in Left 4 Dead.
Also, Mass Effect can have a female lead as well.

I vote yes for both.

Unless JasonF or Bus said either, than my vote is no.

You still don't have a leg to stand on as it being a game from this generation.

Groucho 08-20-09 10:39 AM

Re: (Reverse) Sheep Round 9 — Wolves at the door
 
L4D should definitely count. It's the only game where I got the team killed because I was too busy ogling Giantrobo's ass.

Mass Effect is a clever answer! I say it can count as well.
