Such an immense gap. It's unfair.

 

[SantaC]

ok I admit, I like the mario party games when you have 3 friends to play with, but it shouldn't be on a top200 list.

This list is pretty meh.

 

[el jacko]

top # lists are silly

 

[Kon Tiki]

Issue 100 was better. It had 100 less objectable entrys to groan over.

 

[Speevy]

Does that say Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow? If you're going to pick Splinter Cell, at least choose the best one.

 

[SantaC]

Does that say Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow? If you're going to pick Splinter Cell, at least choose the best one.

Good god, that's probably the worst choice of them all.

 

[sonycowboy]

Obviously lots of quality games there, but ...

Robotron is way too far down the list. Easily in the top 10.

 

[Amir0x]

No Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo, no Pikmin 2, F-Zero over F-Zero GX

list fails on the merits of those three titles alone

 

[MrSardonic]

wtf, SMK below Halo & GTA? SMW down in the 80s?

17 : Halo : Xbox
9 : GTA3 : PS2

:lol *ignores list*

 

[Kuroyume]

Splinter Cell: PT's up there so they have one thing right. That game was really innovative. Btw, those bitching about PT... It introduced the MP part of the game. I'll take the original and CT over it because I hated PT's jungle section, but the playing the MP for the first time was fucking classic.

 

[SantaC]

No Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo, no Pikmin 2, F-Zero over F-Zero GX

No castlevania rondo of blood.

Failure.

 

[Hitman]

WTF is Halo doing there?

 

[Amir0x]

also reading the list, it sounds like one of them things that weighs "historical value" waaaaaaay too heavily. I'm sorry, Pitfall was good one time... top 200, hm, no.

Edit: oh no, please don't make this into a Halo vs the world thread

Halo rocks, accept it plz.

Good top 10 except gta3, get the fuck out of here

 

[Oblivion]

No Earthbound either.

The most shocking thing I would have to say is that Halo 2 was in the place that it was. Being EGM and all, I thought it would have easily made the top 5. At least!

 

[Eric_S]

No Cannon Fodder or Sensible World of Soccer?

This list officially fails.

 

[Amir0x]

No Earthbound either.

OMFG I missed that

 

[Piddepa]

WTF?

Metal Gear Solid 1 and 2 is on the list. Metal Gear for NES is on the list. Heck, even Metal Gear GB is there.

So where the fuck is MGS3!?

 

[DaBuddaDa]

21 : Phantasy Star Online : DC


What. The. Fuck!?!?

 

[Kuroyume]

I'm surprised FF8 isn't up there considering it's the best game in the series. FFX is up there though and it's one of the worst... That's weird.

PSO belongs up there. The first few months of PSO on the DC were awesome. I wasted so much time on that game and I don't regret it. I had so much fun.

 

[Johnas]

No MGS3?

LOLLERS

 

[SantaC]

QFT.

 

[blackadde]

no starcraft
LIST INVALID

 

[captainbiotch]

Majora's Mask #155? EGM, how you have fallen in my eyes.

 

[master_shake_05]

I hate it when the first, more innovative titles win over the all-around better titles in a series. Splinter Cell, GTA, I'm looking at you :cries

No IX either, and that's really odd.

 

[Acrylamid]

No Ikaruga? A 2D F-Zero? The NES-port of Donkey Kong and not the Arcade original?
At least they got the first place right.

 

[Lakitu]

wait, mgs 2 is there but not mgs 3?

 

[jedimike]

too much nostalgia... I liked Moon Patrol and Centipede too, but I get bored to tears playing some of those "classics" today. Only a select few would hold up today.

 

[SolidSnakex]

wait, mgs 2 is there but not mgs 3?

I can understand that, somewhat, but MG:GB and MG over MGS3? No way is that possible if this is a best games ever chart.

 

[Amir0x]

GC: 5 (btw, list contains Animal Crossing. Fails yet AGAIN.)
XBX: 8
PS2: 12
DC: 5

NGEO: 3
TG16: 4

 

[master_shake_05]

wait, mgs 2 is there but not mgs 3?

Once again, my point.

Seriosuly, call this the "Innovative circle jerk list", but not the "best games ever" list. GTA: SA>>>>GTA III, SC: CT>>>>>>>>>>>SC: PT, MGS3>>>>>>>MGS2....:sighs

 

[SantaC]

XBX: 8
PS2: 12

The lack of gameboy classic titles is disturbing.

And 8 N64 games.

 

[Amir0x]

Gameboy classic, imho, is one of the worst popular systems of all time. In my view - it's just my opinion, of course - it had about five games total that stand any sort of test of time (Zelda, Pokemon *sigh*, Tetris, etc...). It was simply too held back by its technology. GBA is quite a different story in my opinion.

Oblivion: Who cares about N64, that system sucked

 

[Reilly]

RC Pro AM is on that list? :lol

I mean, it was a fun game at the time, but one of the best games ever? :lol

[Lemurnator]

Wow.

That's a jump for Super Metroid.

 

[mCACGj]

No way man...

49 : NHLPA: Hockey '93 : Genesis ----------> :lol :lol

Why are you laughing? NHL 93 is an awesome game, and still the best lisenced hockey game ever.

 

[Kon Tiki]

I can understand that, somewhat, but MG:GB and MG over MGS3? No way is that possible if this is a best games ever chart.

I can understand Metal Gear 2 (the best Metal Gear game EVER) over the Solid games, but not the NES MG.

 

[Oblivion]

Oblivion: Who cares about N64, that system sucked

Every except you, apparantly

 

[Amir0x]

Every except you, apparantly

EVERYONE, eh

that's a large number, I presume!

 

[Kabuki Quantum Lover]

Did they just throw 200 titles into a Visual Basic 5 program and randomized their order? WTF...

 

[Lemurnator]

N64 had some of the best games ever in it's library.

Unfortunately the games that weren't perfect 10's all sucked.

Except Winback.

Winback fucking ruled.

 

[Oblivion]

EVERYONE, eh

that's a large number, I presume!

Very! Now behave yourself.

no no, gargoyles quest, Zelda LA, Super Mario Land 2, Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters, FFA etc. Still fun today.

 

[Kaworu]

I know but not top50 IMHO.

 

[Truelize]

Adventure???

I know I'll never see a list that I totally agree with I don't get how games that came out in the early 80's can be better "games" than what we have today.
Being the first doesn't make you the best.
