Extremely biased list, heavy on titles released in the past 10 years. How old were the people doing this survey - 18? League of Legends is even on there twice!

The list is a joke.

Half the games on the list were released in the past 3-4 years. These guys have basically listed 50 games of something like a Top 250, then added 50 games that got a 85%+ score in the past 3-4 years.

Skyrim second best game ever? Just no. The game was released 6 months ago and you're telling me it's already the second best game ever? Talk about living in the present. Half the Call of Duty series is on there! All the Halo games, too. Even "Halo: CE Anniversary". Why include expansion packs to games as seperate entries? Even if it is a game that should probably make the list like Diablo II.

Saints Row The Third? Fallout New Vegas? FIFA 12? Yeah, that's what I think of when I think of a top 100 ever. Roll Eyes

This list is more like "extremely popular games + all popular games of the last 3-4 years". Only 30% of the games should be on the list.

13   Halo: Combat Evolved
14   Halo: Reach
16   Halo 3
33   Halo 2
53   Halo: CE Anniversary

What, no love for ODST? Also, as Sirgin pointed out - let's just add Halo: CE twice.

EDIT: Wait, WHAT?
4   Call Of Duty 3

^ Hahaha. The more you look at it, the more you realize how absurd it is.

4   Call Of Duty 3
5   Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
8   Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
11   Call of Duty Black Ops
86   Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
87   Call of Duty: World at War

Is there a Call of Duty game that didn't make the list? Three of them are in the Top 10 of games. I'm surprised they're not the Top 3.

34   Assassin's Creed II
71   Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
93   Assassin's Creed

Again with the sequels. A serious list shouldn't contain a single sequel, unless that sequel was "revolutionary" (Super Mario 64, GTA3, etc...)


If I were to make a list like this, I'd probably start by thinking what games truly revolutionized a genre. Or games that were so monumental that they put a genre on the map. Also, I wouldn't limit myself to the past 3-4 years of gaming.

This should be fun: list the missing games.
- Sonic
- The Sims
- ANY beat 'em up game (Street Fighter II...)
- Wolfenstein 3D (first true FPS)
- Metal Slug (or anything by SNK)
- ANY old game (Atari, arcade games)

Sad part? There's no Revelations on there for Assassin's Creed. That was better than the 1st, by far...

Yeeeeeaaaaah! Anyway I'm baffled that Fallout 3 ranks higher than 2 (that is if this were actually a list of better games...)

Also:

74   Counter Strike: Global Offensive

IT HASN'T EVEN BEEN RELEASED YET!!!

Neither has 73   Diablo 3 or 28   Dota 2

Technically, Diablo 3 had an open beta, so it was at least playable. Grin

That would be an existing attachment from when the site went down.
They attach themselves to the post id.

EDIT: UGH, I just got one of them. That's nasty!
