[Spider-Aziz]

They really are 125
Who will beat that number?

 

[Soapy]

It's not a contest. I would have done 100, but I already had that list made elsewhere.

 

[CJ]

God damn it. I've been making my top 100 for the past few months and was just about finalising the list. Now the thread will never be mine

I made my list a few months back too. Took me quite a while to finish. I had a blog account setup, and was going to write mini-reviews of each game, had a bunch of screenshots and coverart setup for each one.

Then my laptop with all my data on it died. So I said "screw it" and just made a thread here. =\

 

[jmc]

I'd struggle to name 25.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I'd struggle to name 25.

No problem
Name what you can, not everyone will try to shoot full 100

 

[DirtyHarry]

I'll get on it lol

 

[CJ]

Edited my first post.

Love your avatar, Soapy.

[CJ]

Anyone else? It's interesting to see everyone's choices..

 

[Soapy]

I've been meaning to update my list, but I haven't gotten around to it.

 

[Sundancer]

Does anybody really read #11-#100? In any list or forum? I jump around a bit on stuff like games and movies, but the top 9 are usually what I focus on.

No particular number in no particular order: I bolded the ones I'm wondering if anyone else has played and liked.

Myst
Rastan (arcade)
Dragon's Lair
Dragon's Lair 2
Silent Hill
Silent Hill 2
Max Payne
Max Payne 3
Punisher (2004)
Mega Man 2
Double Dragon II
Super Castlevania IV
Magic of Scheherazade
GTA: Vice City
Batman: Arkham City

 

[CJ]

I do. There's thousands of games out there, for many different genres, systems and decades, so a top ten list just isn't enough, IMO..

 

[Thundercrack85]

I read maybe top 5?

I don't really have a list, since it's hard to directly compare games of different genres.

Another issue is that video games do age. For example, Ocarina of Time which is one of my favorite games, was incredible for its time, and I do think it was one of the best games ever created when it came out, but it's obviously aged.

But my personal favorite game of all time? Majora's Mask. I simply loved that game. It may not be perfect, or revolutionary, and it may be dated, but it's my favorite video game of all time.
