Computer games are so underhyped on these forums.

I should champion their cause.

 

how about championing indie PC games.. seriously they get more flack then standard PC games. Honestly my top 10 PC games list is imho damn good but indie games apparently made the list crap... I really hate some members of this site for not trying a game before judging a game. sigh..

 

Listen to me man. 80 percent of the people on this website are 18 years of age, or below. This community is made up of a bunch of kids. If it wasn't, it would be so fun, because kids fall for everything I throw at them.

That said, kids aren't very astute. They can't examine an argument, and be objective about it, in spite of their own biases. Their logic is all skewed. If there is a game and they doubt they'll ever play it, then that game is dumb.

Now, let me tell you what an intelligent man would tell you about your list here:

Your list was bold. You decided to spurn the common top 10 drudge that most sources would see fit to rattle off, and you gave us a real, opinionated, non-generic list. You introduced me to a couple of games that I will download, Penny Arcade Adventures, and the Telltale games pack. Having the balls to put TOB in second place, makes the list worth a read, by itself. One thing I would've done differently is to boldly expand my list to top 25 computer games of all time. A couple of games that I might have considered for that list are: Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines, Doom, KoToR, Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne, Fallout 2, and Counterstrike(for these lists, the more opinionated and less generic/obvious you are, the better). A choice I agree with is leaving Spore and/or The Sims off that list completely. An under-rated PC games is, imo, Black and White.

Your list was fine. It challenged out expectations, instead of confirming them.

Great post, but can i just nitpick at your Couter-Strike and Black & White points if you so allow, don't read beyond this if you don't want to, I'd hate to tarnish such a good post.

 

CS is extremely overrated and B&W was a typical Molyneux product with great promises that fall on their face completely, I fully agree with the rest. Though you could have thrown in a Balve and a Blizzard bone in there as well, seeing how they can reach such massive amounts of people (Starcraft and Diablo II are still being sold well).
