They failed bigtime wen they said Metroid Prime influenced Bioshock. Were they trying to joke around? Every guy knows, heck it's even on wikipedia for God's sake, that it's a spiritual succesor to System Shock 2. If it weren't for SS2, Bioshock wouldn't exist. 
I like the fact that they put the DMC series. They were influencial, they did influence GoW afterall.
Damn, did they fail wen they putUncharted: Drake's Fortune there. It influenced Assasins Creed & Castlevania: LoS? Did they get payed to say something so pathetically wrong, it isn't even funny? God damn.. 
Halo, i fully agree and obviously expected it to be there. But that shooter did not influence every shooter after 2001, like it says in that article. Are they teens ?
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic.. well yes. It did, in fact, influence Mass Effect, and they are correct on this one that everything Mass Effect does, KOTOR did first.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. What? EXCUSE ME? 

Grand Theft Auto 3, spot on, i like that.
Same for Resident Evil 4.
So in conclusion, some of that list is so damn wrong and illogical, that they had to have ben joking around. If not then..
this society is going down the gutter.
But about half, maybe more of that list is spot on, and pretty acceptable. Not bad, overall.
