So did the original Super Mario Bros. Why isn't it #1 then? It's about the greatest video games, and despite popularity Minecraft is not one of the greatest games.

Because this list was made by Edge, and not random forum goer #1234.

Different people like different games. Whats so wrong with that? One mans rubbish is another mans Gold. Why should they include SMB when they include Super Mario World, Super Mario 64, Super Mario Maker and Super Mario Galaxy 2... All of which are arguably leagues beyond the original SMB by todays standards.

Think of this as a "Top 100 Games of Today" rather than "Top 100 Games of all Time". Super Mario Bros. simply doesnt stand up to more recent entries, just like no other Minecraft clone currently stands up to Minecraft.

Minecraft has...... Popularity... Clones.... As I said, but so does Flappy Birds, and toaster simulator.

Minecraft has one big advantage over those games. It didnt die out within a few Weeks; its still going as strong as ever 4 Years after it innitially released.

Oh, so MORE popularity.
