Awful list. It should be games than invented genres, not recent games that made slight refinements to gameplay. If this list was actually researched I'm sure it would be full of 2600, and NES games, witht hte possible exception of Super Mario 64. It's riduclous that not one of these games predates the '90s. A few I can agree were innovative, but just because a game is good and has a few interesting gameplay ideas doesn't make it innovative.



"Now, a fun game should always be easy to understand - you should be able to take one look at it and know what you have to do straight away. It should be so well constructed that you can tell at a glance what your goal is and, even if you don’t succeed, you’ll blame yourself rather than the game. Moreover, the people standing around watching the game have also got to be able to enjoy it." - Shiggy
