Best names for games

[Triple A]

Didn't see a thread on this.

We have a thread on worst game names ever, so I figured to flip that.

Amusing entries welcome as well as the more traditional ones re: quality & relevance of communication, etc.

I'll start:

CHILI CON CARNAGE

I always liked House of the Dead, although too few of the games actually take place entirely in a house

I think Metal Gear Solid is and will remain the best name ever for a videogame.

I had a friend on Live called Metal Gear Floppy. That always raised a chuckle

 

No one mentioned Ring of Red....

[Jolly]

I love the name Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes.  Not only is it a good description of what you do (and excellent advice for doing it well) but it just sounds unusual.  It's earcatching.

[ScouserInExile]

Blood Omen: Legacy Of Kain.

 

Or BOLOK, for short.

[Qazimod]

I don't think I ever played it, but I was always a fan of Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman! - What Did I Do To Deserve This?

 

 

EDIT: Honourable mention to Tales of Game's Studios Presents Chef Boyardee's Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden, Chapter 1 of the Hoopz Barkley SaGa - 

 

 

Yes, that's all part of the title

[MarkN]

Invisible, Inc. (this one's just fantastic - an absolutely perfect play on words that fits the brief like a glove.)

Stealth Bastard

Better Dead Than Alien

Gerry The Germ Goes Body Poppin'

Icarus Proudbottom and the Curse of the Chocolate Fountain

[bradigor]

I always have a soft spot for Bishi Bashi Special as a game name on the PS1.

ooh that's a good one

[PK]

Quake

 

It had nothing to do with the contents of the game, just a really fucking cool word.  And leading up to its release there was this sense that it was going to tear apart the PC gaming landscape because of how much of a technical achievement it was, so the name just fitted perfectly.
