39. The Secret of: Monkey Island (Dev: Lucasarts, Pub: Lucasarts, Y: 1990)

I always see this ^ but do not understand the reasoning for it. Anyone know why?

 

37. ET: the Extra-Terrestrial (Dev: Atari, Pub: Atari, Y: 1982)

Wasn't this the game that killed Atari? It definintely changed the world if it  did.

31. The Path (Dev: Tale of Tales, Pub: Tale of Tales, Y: 2009)

Why?

30. Passage (Dev: Jason Rohrer, Pub: Jason Rohrer, Y: 2007)

What is it?

29. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (Dev: Nintendo, Pub: Nintendo, Y: 1998)

Big Agree

18. Parappa the Rapper (Dev: NanaOn-Sha, Pub: Sony, Y: 1996)

Annoyingly yes.

13. Quake (Dev: Id Software, Pub: GT Interactive, Y: 1996)

Missing goldeneye. I feel that had much more impact on FPS.

3. Doom (Dev: Id Software, Pub: Apogee, Y: 1993)

See Goldeneye note above.

Post above.

Yeah, ET was the game that not only destroyed Atari, but also brought on the VG crash - so I understand why it's there :P

There's quite a few indie titles here that I don't really understand...
