crispy4000 Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Let's vote! I'll keep it going for about a week unless I see everyone finish earlier. Points will be awarded in inverse fashion (top game gets 100 points, 2nd gets 99, etc). Anything beyond 100 won't factor in. I'll also be doing a best of the rest / snubbed list, which I'd like to weight a little differently. Perhaps bonus points for fewer mentions? With the most awarded for 2? For now, let's roll on. ---------------------------------------------------------- *Quick Disclaimer* Parenthesis () in titles mean its optional to consider, except when marking the year of release. If you've only played the base game that's mentioned, that's perfectly fine. Go ahead and vote based on that.

Super Smash Bros Melee No surprise here. The multiplayer game I spent the most time on over the years. It still feels amazing to boot up every once and a while. I've said my piece about it several times, but I'll give a shout out to the camera movement this time. I don't think any platform fighter has been able to fully capture its frenetic quality. 2.) The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time I don't think it's aged perfectly, namely the dialogue is a little stilted. (At least the 3DS version cleaned up the visuals and framerate.) All said and done, this game IMO showed more than any other the potential of 3D game design. It's also from a time when secrets still mattered in the series, it doesn't overload you with trinkets, and it still has the best set of dungeons in the series. 3.) Final Fantasy VI (III in US on SNES) It's the very best JRPG out there, for the mood it strikes, the speed of its ATB combat, intelligent handling of topics untouchable by games at the time, and crazed villains. 4.) Starcraft (+ Brood War, Remastered) There's snazzier RTSs out there, and many QoL improvements since. But in many ways I don't even care. Starcraft 1 feels like the apex of a genre, that could very well never be topped. It's perfect as it balance wise, and I'm even more glad the remaster didn't do anything to touch that. 5.) Final Fantasy VII I guess Remake triggered some nostalgia I had for the original, I'm kind of surprised to see it ranked this high. Nevertheless, it's a classic and must play. There's so much packed into to its world, I'm not surprised they were able to expand on it as Remake did. 6.) Super Mario 64 It feels so much more raw and rough than later 3D Mario's. But the unforgiving quality of the physics, wall jumping, etc, is kind of what makes it still great. No one's designing levels like Rainbow Ride today. They don't trust the player to figure it out. 7.) Resident Evil 4 (original or remake) Enough's been said about this one too, but it's immensely replayable for me. Reminds me that I need to get around to the remake and new DLC. 8.) Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES or All-Stars) I kind of wish they didn't have the warp whistles. I think it's a better game when you're forced to see all of it. I'm also kind of surprised it charted ahead of World for me, but with its bosses and airships, I agree in hindsight. 9.) Xenoblade Chronicles 3 (+ Future Redeemed) As a package, it hits everything I could possibly want. Great combat, wonderful world design, huge plot twists I'll think fondly back on, and some great progression innovations in Future Redeemed that I want Monolith (or any open world game / RPG) to take as a lesson moving forward. One of the best soundtracks out there as well. 10.) Xenoblade Chronicles (+ Future Connected) Feels like a coincidence these ended up back to back, but I'm glad it rounded out my top 10. The first game is much more flawed than 3, but its got at least three twists that caught me off guard as places I wouldn't expect a game to go. Amazing soundtrack as well, I think that sells it as a 'classic' from the get go. Larger picture, the game left one heck of an impression on me. Honorable Mentions: Super Mario Galaxy 2, Super Mario RPG, Hollow Knight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least for me personally. There’s stuff that I thought wouldn’t make my top 100 that actually would in hindsight, like Metroid Prime 3. All is fair though. I think we’ve got a pretty good decent sized list considering 2/3rds of the games won’t make it. I like that ratio. @Commissar SFLUFAN As I thought it might, Psyconauts 2 did end making the cut for me. Good call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was FH5 a big leap over FH4? No, but it was better. There is tons to do, and you can do most of it whenever you want. Challenges -- it has a bunch, speed traps, speed zones, danger zones (jumping for distance), and drifting. Racing -- four unique types of onroad/offroad. Quirky story missions? Yup. And the driving is a pure arcadey joy. 2) Half-Life 2 (+ Episodes) Half Life was revolutionary in its time for a story based FPS -- and in a gravity gun? And it becomes one of my favourite experiences ever. 3) Tetris I played the Spectrum Holobyte version on the Amiga, and dumped hundreds of hours into it. It's incredibly simple, yet also very deep and challenging. 4) God of War 2 One of the best action games of all time. Not incredibly difficult, but still challenging. 5) Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots A controversial choice for a controversial game. 6) Portal A great short experience. Sublime puzzles combined with great funny dialog. 7) Horizon: Zero Dawn The best open world game. An engrossing story, an interesting protagonist and some of the best combat in any open world game. 8) God of War (2005) A great reimagining of the original series. 9) The Witcher 3 (+ DLC Expansions) The combat was a little easy, but this game is all about the storytelling and the none-of-them-are-good choices. 10) Doom (2016) In a world where FPSs had all become super defensive, Doom comes back with it's uberaggressive frenetic gameplay. A winner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It forces you to think one game vs another at different parts of the list, when you might not be inclined to do so just slotting each in. Interesting that you have Portal in your top 10. It ended up being #106 for me. Maybe in part because I played so long after release. Differing opinions and such, but its still a fantastic game in my mind.

Similarly, I never owned a non-Atari 2600 console until Saturn/PSX. I was mostly a Atari/Commodore/PC/Arcade gamer. There are a LOT of old arcade games on the list.

cusideabelincoln Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Got a good chunk through the rankings and it's actually impossible to compare all these games to each other, and I had to delete over half the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 1 Mass Effect Trilogy - Really hard to beat 3 games all in one TBH. 2 Final Fantasy XIV - Literally the best FF. Had to add it myself SMH. 3 Dragon Age Origins 4 Dark Souls - You'd think it be my number one, but story is pretty important. 5 DOOM: Eternal 6 The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker - Why'd I have to add this myself SMH. 7 The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 8 God of War: Ragnarok 9 Persona 3 - Kinda feels like this shouldn't belong here but like 9-18 are some heavy hitters. 10 Fable: The Lost Chapters Spoiler 11 The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds 12 Resident Evil 4 13 Halo 3 14 Baldur's Gate 3 15 God of War (2018) 16 Battlefield Bad Company 2 17 Wii Sports 18 Red Dead Redemption 2 19 The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess 20 Super Mario 64 21 World of Warcraft 22 The Witcher 3 23 Super Mario Bros. 24 Halo 25 Elden Ring 26 DOOM (2016) 27 Final Fantasy VII 28 Resident Evil 2 29 Final Fantaxy XII 30 Super Smash Bros Melee 31 Xenoblade Chronicles 32 Final Fantasy IX 33 Super Mario World 34 Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 35 Super Mario Bros. 3 36 Resident Evil 37 Super Mario Sunshine 38 Portal 39 Fallout 3 40 The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 41 The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim 42 Bioshock Infinite 43 Team Fortress 2 44 Peggle 45 Star Fox 64 46 Final Fantasy X 47 Super Mario Odyssey 48 Super Mario Galaxy 49 Fallout: New Vegas 50 Tetris 51 Super Mario Bros. 2 52 The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion 53 Halo Reach 54 Cyberpunk 2077 55 Grand Theft Auto V 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy4000 Posted October 12, 2023 Author Share Posted October 12, 2023 Twilight Princess wasn’t nominated either, right? There’s some Nintendo games I would have voted for in retrospect (Skyward Sword and Metroid Prime 3), too late now. Don’t worry about changing your list.

I should’ve thrown in at least one Pokémon game, probably Gold/Silver. The Outer Wilds would’ve been high on my list as well, but I don’t think many people played that. Overall, I’m pretty happy with my top 20 or so, everything after that was a giant toss-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLeon Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 I did it on my iPad. I just tested it on my phone. It’s doable, the only clunky part would be deleting all the games you haven’t played from the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
