Games you’d advocate for on a Top 100 games list *Voting ends Nov 1st*

Let’s make our own list.

 

This is for nominations only.  Meaning no rankings attached.  Read other posts to avoid duplicate submissions whenever possible.
 

As I said in the Edge thread, I’m thinking we also do a 50 (or more) under-appreciated list of games that don’t end up charting that gets weighted a bit differently.

 

Commence with the name dropping.

I hate lists by committee. They have no personality and are full of contradictions. I a look at the Edge top 100 and didn’t even feel it worth my time to comment. 

 

There will never be consensus.  In my view, it's more about learning the tastes of others here, and sparking some discussion of the games themselves.  Especially since non-current games aren't always a hot topic here.

 

Perfectly fine to opt out.

Everyone doing their own list, like here, is the ideal to me. I’d rather see a dozen top 10 lists than a top 100 from a dozen people. lol 

 

For myself I try to set some rules. 
-don’t do a “best” list unless there’s some other criteria. Best launch title, best game of a year, best in a franchise, etc. 

-separate favorite from influential. There is often some overlap, but not always is the most influential my favorite. 
-shorter lists should make an effort to set a limit of 1 game per franchise. 
-fuck review score. lol

When we do the actual voting, I could have everyone post their top 10 list and spoiler tag the rest.

Let's see...no duplications makes this a bit challenging, but not impossible:

 

Half-Life

DOOM (the 1993 version)

Super Mario Bros.

Ultima VII

Papers, Please

Quake III Arena

Microsoft Flight Simulator (the original)

Resident Evil (the original)

Mortal Kombat (the original)

Everquest

Star Wars: TIE Fighter

 

 

Two of us have already said Super Mario Bros. :fedora:

It's pretty hard to say which games belong on such a list. It's far easier to list what shouldn't be.

 

No Halo after Halo 3. No racing games especially racing sims. Nothing from Naughty Dog. No walking simulators. No crafting shit. Most puzzle games can hit the road. No first-person shooter before 2001. None of the Fallout games. No GTA game, maybe GTA4 or SA, but I'd rather not. No Battle Royal games. None of the modern indie pixel games. Pretty much no sports games unless you count the Tony Hawk games as sports games and Wii Sports.

 

I could probably find more. The only game for sure I'd put on the list somewhere is Dark Souls. Not only is Dark Souls still actually a good game, it created one of my favorite genres. Anyone who disagrees with DS being on a list is just a shitter who never got gud.

:dab2:
