Ding ding ding!

Congratulations

This particular Tony Hawk game is only liked by hipsters

Tony Hawk is a very famous series. The Pro Skater games were considered among the greatest games ever made. And now it's peripheral-driven garbage.

And I figured Pro Skater 2 would feature very heavily on these lists given the number of Sony fans on this site.

Prince of Persia?

So it is Tony Hawk then

i find really difficult to chose between some games.....plus, how should i judge the games?, i mean, by the impact cused when released? or by how well they stand the test of time?....

If it's a more of a re-imagining of the game... like REmake (GCN) to Resident Evil (PS), then that's fine to do two separate games.

Or how much you like them.

but like them now?
or liked them when i first played them?

God doing this is hard! I'm currently at game number 30 and it's still hard to pick games. Although I already know my top 10 games :p

Well your tastes are always changing, so it's not only new games that affect your top 50... it's your feelings over time that affect it too.

You have to look back and remember how much you enjoyed past games. For example (I'm going to cheat a little here, forgive me) Pokemon Red/Blue is my favorite Pokemon game. Now, as a game, has it stood the test of time and compared favorably to... Pokemon Black/White? Not really, as Black/White has better graphics, sound, battle system, and more Pokemon. So it's better right?

Not exactly. I have to take into account that Red/Blue was my first Pokemon game, and that it consumed my childhood and was a part of who I was throughout elementary school. It defined a generation, and as someone who was part of that... that means a lot, so I take it into account.

It's all about how you feel now... and at the same time you have to take into account of how you felt back then too. I won't say it's not difficult, but you have to do your best!
