Only the best Xbox Games receive the honorable TeamXbox "Gold" Editor’s Choice Award. Although, there are still other levels of greatness a game can rise up to, the TeamXbox Silver or Bronze Editor's Choice Award.

All Xbox games that receive a review rating of 9.5 or higher kick serious ass and therefore belong in our family of "Gold Editor’s Choice Games". Any Xbox game that receives a review rating from 9.0 - 9.4 is worthy of a "Silver" Editor’s Choice Award. And those games that deliver a review score between 8.5 and 8.9 will be marked with a "Bronze" Editor’s Choice Award.
Take a look and browse through what TeamXbox qualifies as the best Xbox games ever made!
