I won't spoil anything, but there's some games missing which I'd have expected, some games WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too high (*cough* GTA IV *cough* ) and some games not high enough. 

But what do you reckon? In total, good list. Better than most I think!

Yeah, some games are WAAAAAAAAAYYYY tooo high (*cough* Wind waker, smb 3 and smg *cough*).

Otherwise a better list than most top lists.

Wow, somebody thinks that GTA IV is a great game. That's a rare breed here on VGC.

Yeah, I've noticed that also. It is quite saddening to see people not appreciating such gems.

Indeed. You admitting that actually Zelda, Mario etc. are some of the best games of all time, almost impossibly better than GTA IV?

It's about time you've garnered some logic IMO

the orange box is not a game. It's a bunch games sold in an orange box. It was a great value if you didn't already own some of the games and like valve gah.

(Sorry for the mulitple posts in advance )

I'd have to agree with you, provided the other games weren't counted seperately. For example, Metroid Prime Triolgy is better than Metroid Prime, because it contains all 3 classics and adds a few extra features (Orange Box's case- Portal). So it should make a high entry in the list, provided the stand-alone games weren't on it

I think you got something wrong. Those games you mentioned aren't even good games, IMO.

No, I was doing it deliberately, to pretty much make it clear you're one of the very few people who thinks those games are poor, and also one of the very few people who thinks that GTAIV is a good game

San Andreas is just better than it in every single aspect. Most GTAs are. Heck, most GAMES are. Most over-rated game ever

There are a lot of people who think those games are poor. Just ask anyone who dislikes cartoon games. ;) GTA IV has sold what, 20 million copies? You really think only "very few" people thinks that GTA IV is a good game? Please.

San Andreas is also a good game. It is better than most games. Including EVERY mario/zelda, which are the most overrated games ever.

I wouldn't say that Mario and Zelda are over-rated...

I absolutely loved San Andreas (5th favourite game of all time), also, Vice City ( stories), Liberty City Stories, and Chinatown wars. Because they had side-quests. GTA IV was a complete backwards step from all of these games IMO, aside from the hefty number of missions (none of which were classics), there was nothing special about it, and no reason to return.

It was a good game, but WAAAAAAAAAAY over-hyped. Maybe I just expected too much

I dislike racing simulators, doesn't mean I think GT5 is a poor game. In fact, I'm convinced it's a terrific game, it succeeds in what it aims to do.

Taste is ultimately subjective, but there's a difference in taste and quality.

I was just about to mention this actually...

Friends of mine dislike Galaxy and Galaxy 2, but I've never heard anyone say it's a 'bad' game, or 'overhyped'. Only 'it wasn't for me'

Also, where were you yesterday with the hunters guild??

Well, I suppose you could say they are, because they're the two most successful gaming franchises of all time

But there's no denying their quality!
