Favorite Games Ever (Besides Ninja Gaiden, Obviously)

[Avaitor]

I doubt any GBA game will make it, honestly. Or many handheld games besides the most obvious ones, like Pokemon.

[Dr. Ensatsu-ken]

If Yoshi's Island doesn't make it on this list, then it officially has no credibility in my book.

Here's what I'm expecting to make the top 10, in any given order:

Halo game
CoD game
Uncharted game
Elder Scrolls game (probably Skyrim)
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Resident Evil 4
Mario game (probably the original, but if they have enough sense to them it'll be SMB3 or at least SMW)
World of Warcraft

And the remaining 2 spots will probably be filled by either generic movie games or some safe choices that are just there to show "respect for the classics" to prevent backlash from older gamers.

ANGRY BIRDS ACTUALLY MADE IT AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Credibility = 

[Spark Of Spirit]

I'm disappointed the only pre-NES games are Pitfall, Burger Time, and Pong.

Night Stalker was a great and under-looked game, as was River Raid. But I guess you have to be in your 40s or late 30s to have played them, since gamers aren't going to seek them out.

[Spark Of Spirit]

What I think should make it: (And I'll try to be as realistic as possible without going obscure)

NES:
Mega Man 3
Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers
DuckTales
River City Ransom
Ninja Gaiden II
Castlevania III
Life Force
TMNT III (They will choose II, though)
Super Mario Bros.
Super Mario Bros. 2 (USA)
Super Mario Bros. 3

Sega Genesis:
Phantasy Star IV
World Of Illusion
Sonic The Hedgehog 2
Sonic The Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles (they won't list this, though. I'm 100% sure)
Streets Of Rage 2
Gunstar Heroes
The Revenge Of Shinobi
Shinobi III
Contra Hard Corps.

Arcade/Neo Geo:
Donkey Kong (Not gonna happen)
R-Type
Street Fighter II (Random spin off)
Street Fighter III (Third Strike)
Garou: Mark Of The Wolves
King Of Fighter '98
Samurai Shodown 2
Last Blade 2
Soul Calibur (yep, the original)
Sunset Riders
Final Fight
Metal Slug X
Metal Slug 3

SNES:
Mega Man X
Super Metroid
Earthbound
Chrono Trigger
Final Fantasy VI
Contra III: The Alien Wars
TMNT: Turtles In Time
Kirby Super Star
Donkey Kong Country 2 (Only DKC1 will make the list)
Super Mario World
Yoshi's Island

Anything beyond this is probably obvious or not on the list already. Since only OoT will be on above SM64 for the 64 games, and I doubt many PS1 games will get the nod over MGS1.

[Foggle]

It's G4. There won't be any more 2D games aside from SMB 1 or 3.

FFVII will.

[Spark Of Spirit]

Then G4 is wrong, Foggle.  Unfortunately, there's too many 2D classics for a top 100 list to not be at least 80:20 in favor of them.

Good catch.

So there's your top 45. :p

[Daxdiv]

I would agree that FFVII would make the list... If it wasn't for X-Play bashing Final Fantasy VII at one point during a segment called your Childhood Sucked.

[Foggle]

If I was making this list, I'd split it 50-50.

[Spark Of Spirit]

As for dark horses:

Duke Nukem 3D
DOOM II (Again, I expect only the original)
Worms Armageddon
Conker's Bad Fur Day
WWF No Mercy
Diddy Kong Racing
Tomba!
Crash Bandicoot (one of the three)
Crash Team Racing
Sonic CD
Viewtiful Joe
Super Monkey Ball
Wind Waker
The Red Star
Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal (I think they figure one is enough)
Power Stone 2
Jet Set Radio
...

See, I get to way too many classic before I even get to the current gen.

Samurai Shodown 2

And knowing my luck, this will be #41, or completely forgotten.

[Kiddington]

Hey guys, here's an idea; we should make our own top 100 games ever list.

Just like the top 65 cartoons list, eh? 

[Foggle]

Duke Nukem 3D, F.E.A.R., and Half-Life should be on this list above any CoD or Halo game.

But they won't be. None of those three will make it, though Half-Life 2 probably has a shot.

We're still an animation site, honest.

[Spark Of Spirit]

Samurai Shodown 2

And knowing my luck, this will be #4, or completely forgotten.

This used to be on all the best game lists before the fighter genre died. Since it came back, no one remembers it.

It's still an ace game, though. One of SNK's best with Garou, Shock Troopers, and Metal Slug 3.

But I already basically made the top 60.
