@Mastermatta: "Beyond it being a good game it had a very large cultural impact, much larger than games like half-life and doom" You must be joking, Doom had a much bigger impact than either of those two other games mentioned.
I am sorry but Portal really isn't hall of fame material just because of a single gimmick. And surely its memes are not something which should allow the game to be on the list because otherwise that is just pathetic.
Forcing people to use DRM-forced client services (steam, origin, uplay, etc) aren't entirely consumer friendliness either, but yes Denuvo is an extra unnecessary layer which is annoying. GoG seems to be the most consumer friendly of the lot and doesn't force you to run a client to play their games.
@kyelo: "Also you are incorrect about the new version, it is now 64bit which removes the bottleneck thus mods that were never once possible now are." No, I was speaking about how the so called graphics increase of the special edition was no where near as great as graphics mods already available for the original version. You completely missed what I was saying, but this does in some way mean they made up for their wrong doing by attempting to make mods paid for.
Also ""dumbed down" a negative = easier to use, less convoluted...a positive ;P" is not the case at all, they stripped away a variety of OPTIONAL game content which helped the previous games to be more of an engrossing experience, that is in no way a positive.
Skyrim doesn't even deserve to be treated as game of the decade after how dumbed down and stripped of RPG mechanics it is over the previous games, and the unusual special edition was a blatant cash grab after how their paid mods idea where they get the bigger cut didn't go down so well. There was already mods for that game which increased its graphics better than special edition did.
