I like VGChartz' taste in gaming

45 out of 50 of my list appeared.  Seeing Ogre Battle 64 and Xenogears makes me happy, and so does having FFVI and CT above FFVII.

Good work Smeags!

Somehow I expected Ocarina of Time to be #1

Lol. Well done Smeags, that must have taken some work.

That's true dedication right there. I wouldn't have nearly enough patience to do this.

Going through the list was hard, at 100 I was like..STILL NO FFXIII!

Then we got through VIII and IX and I thought...no it missed the top 150...but then it was there at number 27 LOL. Dunno how FFXIII get so high without me or Boutros completing our lists.

Oh and MGS4, GTA:SA are too low...my heart stopped beating when I saw them so low, I thought they would be surefire top 10 contenders.

Thank you for putting FF6 at number 3 (thats exactly where I have it)! Nice to see Wind Waker so high up too (didn't expect to see it that high).

Cool how the top 5 FF's on the list are my top 5 FF's too (6,4,10,7,13) albeit a different order.

Top 3 games are on nintendo systems so this is clearly a nintendo biased poll!!c!a!r!l!!2291!!

Nice job Smeags...looking forward to doing it again next year if you'll do it tehehe

Wow. That's a lot of work. Big, big kudos on that.

18 of my games made the top 50. 34 in the top 150. Not bad.

And most importantly, the right game at number 1...

Why did you split RE4 in 2 games? The Wii-Edition is the same game as all the other versions of RE4.

Well it was interesting, because some people did this with their lists:

18. Resident Evil 4/Wii Edition (GCN/Wii)

and some people did this:

22. Resident Evil 4 (PS2)

same thing happened with Pokemon FireRed/LeafGreen and HeartGold/SoulSilver. Some people combined them with the originals and some didn't. I tried my best to honor people's wishes by keeping the games they put down to get the votes they deserved. So when someone voted like my first example, I gave both "versions" the same score, but when someone voted just for Resident Evil 4 I only put points down for Resident Evil 4.

@Bad

Haha, Final Fantasy XIII kept popping every so often with very high scores. The rest of the FF's were more frequently listed though.

@Scottie

Yeah, this group of gamers had a very focused taste in gaming. Like I said to Axumblade, Action/Adventures (Zelda) and JRPGs (Final Fantasy) dominated most people's lists (not like that's a bad thing of course), and then Mario was everywhere too representing the platformers.

As for Sonic (and pretty much any Sega game), I'm bummed too. Heck, even Xbox/360 games did better than Sega games, which somewhat surprises me given the demographic of VGC.

@OutlawAuron

I just felt that consistancy had to be rewarded. That's the reason games like Chrono Trigger, Okami, and Bioshock did so well. They may not have scored as highly as other games on there, but they were loved by many many people, so they kept on showing up (Bioshock has 3 scores of 31, which is pretty funny).

@Hikaruchan

It was more than just you! Actually, if a game got 1st place by one person yet didn't rank on any other list, it would have 1501 points, which means that it wouldn't have made it to the top 150.

@Forest-Spirit

That's pretty nifty!

@MrT-Tar

No feeling on Gold/Silver? I mean, that was Tyranitar's debut!

@Snfr

Yeah, the rest of the top 10 is actually very close to one another, but OoT was on a LOT of lists and was ranked very highly in them too. A 2 hit knockout for sure.

@Scoobes

It was. And I appreciate the thanks. ^_^

@Huaxinong

Once I got half-way, I was on a roll. I was more focused on "IM ALMOST DONE WITH THIS!" than "I cant do this anymore!"

@Darth

Lol! Your adventure is a grand one indeed.

Also, that Carl comment made me laugh out loud. Truth is funny.

@MilkyJoe

It's a great game. No complaints from this guy. ^_^

Wow! I feel so bad I didn't complete my list. Great work Smeags you've got way more patience than me. Do you know how many hours you've dedicated to this?

*Laughs*

Um... *where's the Wii hourly chart when you need it?*

I started on the 13th and finished last night on the 16th, so four days.

Of those four days, I probably put 5ish hours into it, so... 20 hours.

*shakes head slowly*

I need to play a video game right now.
