Its fail because its console focused beyond belief. Especially when you consider that the video game world has been shaped by PC gaming more than anything in the past 15 years,
Even the cross-over to PC titles on it began on the console...
-
final fantasy 12 higher than 7 epic fail , i love all the FF games but in no way shape nor form is FFXII (or the one that you can play afc (away from console) better than the epic play and story of 7, either the people who voted are dumb or were in there nappies at the time ;)
-
as always: tainted by recency (which is no word according to spellingcheck).
Where is pong?
Where is doom?
etc.
-
pong ? well it pong(ed) just cos it was first it still sucked ;)
and doom was pish :)
but then i play Japanese RPGs so what do i know ;)
-
my top 50 would probably be dominated by snes titles they knew how to make games back in the day :)
-
it all depends on how you define 'best game'
if you define it by graphics you'll get a recency bias
if you define it by copies sold you'll get a recency bias
if you define it by impact on the gaming community (which is hard to measure for e.g. 20 yr old games) you'll get a recency bias
these sort of lists suck
couple of years ago Pim Fortuyn(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pim_Fortuyn (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pim_Fortuyn)) was chosen by the public as most influential person in dutch history. Why? because he was shot a (few) year earlier.
I won't bore you with a list of dutch ppl who had more influence than him.

I won't bore you with a list of dutch ppl who had more influence than him.
what? like that kid who stuck his finger in a dyke?
and that sentence means something tottaly different in my head ;)
-
be glad you're not English or I'd have slapped Willem III around your ears :D
-
Hmm missing elite, and (any part of the) ultima series :D
stuipid list..
they should have asked real gamers instead of the consolbabies.
-
And supermariokart #1
WHY
its fun if you have some friends, but not more than fun, not the best ever.
This list is utter rubbish.
-
I bet Nintendo sponsored them some how :S
-
For me its listing oblivion but not morrowind grr >:( and no BG2 or Fallout double >:( >:( .
also bethor I have to say frontier was better than elite if not quite as revolutionary
-
Any "best of" game list without Elite, M.U.L.E, Wizards of Wor, Bruce Lee, Adventure, Space Invaders, Silent Hunter and Colonization is not a list worth looking at.
