This makes no sense. Fallout 2 and Fallout 1 are the same damned game. Fallout 2 is basically a F1 expansion pack - granted, with more guns and a larger explorable area, but that's offset by the introduction of new sprites that didn't mesh with the original's graphics. F1 had a better story and better gameplay arc, and if that weren't enough, it clearly wins on the basis of novelty. Finding the Brotherhood for the first time in F1 was a revelation. F2 was still a good game but it wasn't as much fun simply because it was the second time around.

Way better. Fallout 3 sucked. At least NV had some personality.

Not to mention that KOTOR II was unbelievably buggy. It was an unfinished game that was rushed to market.
Overall I tend to agree with the list but Deus Ex should clearly be in the top 10.
