Where is Monkey Island 1 and 2? Where is the original X-Com? Half Life? I am sorry but there isn't a single Mario game that I would take over those 3 I just mentioned and I can think of alot more as well.

Tetris? Maybe for it's time, or as a game you play on your cellphone when you're bored - but realistically compared to other games? ...

to each is his own...

BUT

for its time half-life (arguably the best FPS/game of all time) was a landmark achievement and should be there instead of half life 2... hell its not even in the top100

where is civ2 (they have civ4 as #20), red alert (or total annihilation)

these are games that when they came out changed the way that genre was played (except for red alert, thats just a kick ass game)

Secret of Monkey Island came in at 79... MI2 X-Com and HL didn't make the list but Counter Strike was on there somewhere.

Taking a look at 360/PS3/Wii games that made the list:
100. Crackdown (360)
80. Virtua Tennis 3 (360/PS3)
67. Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved (360)
38. Virtua Fighter 5 (360/PS3)
19. Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (360/PS3)
15. Pro Evolution Soccer 6 (360)
02. Resident Evil 4 (Wii)

BULL SHIT..

i can see a good argument for OOT to be number 1 but the rest of that list is TERRIBLE.

Am I the only 360 owner that didn't like GoW?

I was about to question their number two pick (Resident Evil 4, great game but hell no does it rank as the second best game of all time), but then I read Twisted's post....

Crackdown's number 100?

Ok Edge and its list (while I agree with for the most part) just lost its credibility with me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)
