What were you playing on your PC when people were playing Mario Bros and Donkey Kong?

Great point. Probably Zork or something I imagine? Number munchers perhaps?

[QUOTE="Stevo_the_gamer"][QUOTE="princeofshapeir"]If all of these games don't appear on the list...Stevo_the_gamer

I view as though no game released after 2004 deserves a spot within that list. If I see SMG, Brawl, MGS4, Halo 3, Call of Duty 4, Grand Theft Auto 4, Oblivion, Crysis, or Orange Box within that list ... it's going to be an epic face palm. :P

And what'ya know -- all these titles made the list. *sigh*

Sorry Adobe, that list is epic fail in my eyes. :P

I can appreciate nostalgia as much as the next guy. If you look at my gamercard, you'll see I played R-Type Dimensions. But seriously? NO game in the past 4 years can be great? Ohhhh of course not, the advancements in game design only occurred from 1990-2000?? PLEASE tell me that is some form of hyperbole :|

I like the list. Not bad at all. Though Halo 1 for second best game of ALL TIME is something I wasn't expecting. Though I'd hate to admit it, I understand what some people mean about new games not being as good as old ones. But that's not all of 'em. There just isn't as much room for innovation. They're "Better" for more content and stuff like that though. SMG. MGS4, GTA III, Half Life 2, Warcraft III, those are some good examples of games that are as "good" as old games though, IMO

I did say that; however, I did not say "any game released after 2004 can't be great".

No Golden Sun/Lost Age, Heroes of M&M 3, Starcraft Broodwar, Morrowind, Tales of Symphonia/Abyss, Grim Fandango, Crysis. And so many current gen titles that shouldn't even be there to begin with, the only ones that should stay are MGS4, Galaxy, Cod4 and Bioshock. And what's with Halo: CE being second? WTF??? I mean it was/is a great game and should be on the list but nowhere near OoT and the likes. And The Orange Box shouldn't be counted, only Half Life 2 separately should count.

Zexxon from Sega, King Quest and many others...Though I was very young at the time.

Oh man. Let's stop the rant, shall we? It was pretty obvious since the beginning that the list WAS NOT MEANT TO BE FOR EVERYONE's TASTE. So stop complaining. I don't like the list, neither, but I think it is great we can have the community's opinion. So is life, people have different opinions, deal with it. And for the one saying that no game after 2004 deserves to be there, that's BS.

I think the list is great! Very good results; however, I'm surprised that Halo : Combat Evolved didn't receive more votes.

And perhaps the German government should cut the taxes before the next elections. It would be a good move if they want to be re-elected.

Bah, the online is what makes UT so great. UT2k4 has hardly anyone playing. UT99 has infinite mods and custom maps aswell as way more people playing.

I find it interesting that the current consoles are rep. in the 1,2, 3 slots.

and looks like nintendo is teh winnerah, OoT wasn't surpised (who was?) but i still think highly of it today, and its still fun to play.

I find it odd for a halo game to be up there on the 2 slot, i thought FF7 would do that or something whatever.

MGS4 in 3rd, thats interesting.

overall im pleased with the list, Halo being 2nd is the only thing im like "what?" at, but metroid prime at least being in top ten makes me happy.

and woot for SMB3

For all of those people out there who are ranting and bashing the list, others voted for it. If you say it's a joke list then you're calling everyone else's opinion a joke too.
