Do you want to know one of the things that’s great about being a fan of video games? The comfort that the sequel to your favorite game is probably going to be awesome.

For your convenience, the nice folk over at GameDaily have compiled a list of what they feel are the best “Number 2s” in our field. While the list is mostly spot on, the omission of Silent Hill 2 is quite curious when they have Super Mario Brothers 2 and Gears of War 2 on board. Although, the inclusion of Half Life 2 and Diablo II make me very happy.
Man, I can’t wait for Diablo III.
