100 Greatest Games Of All Time

Nah. He's right about Jet Set Willy. I never liked it and trying to figure out the right password with a black and white photocopy of the real sheet was a mug's game.

The thing that always annoys me about these lists is the total blanking of the arcades. There never has been and never will be a computer game as utterly perfect as R-Type.

I dont know who specifically compiles these lists but i think i can guess their age demographic by their choices of games.

They probably arent old enough to have played games like Defender or Robotron in arcades so their experience of gaming was playing at home on their shitty little Nintendos and PCs instead and its sour grapes which is why they blank out an entire generation of games.

Empire Magazine.

They do this every year .

Well, honestly, no doubt that Super Mario World is on the top. It's one of the most played games even in the earlier times of gaming. And close on the 2nd place is Final Fantasy VII. It's the best FF game around

Manic miner for the speccy. Eugene's lair always used to frustrate me.
Cant forget Starquake. first game I properly completed without pokes or cheats.

Is it a game based off Lord of the Rings?

Having noted that Elite wasn't in the top ten, I judged that it was not my kind of list and stopped reading.

What kind of game is Elite? An FPS?

Ahh, the youth of today...  Never to know the responsive roll of a Cobra Mk II, the welcome screech of an ECM, to experience the joy of running 30 tons of computers into a Tech Level 2 Anarchy, and to finally (FINALLY) buy that bloody Docking Computer.

Cobra Mark III, you charlatan!

Even if you were playing the sequel(s), you could never fly a Cobra Mark II because, if memory serves, they didn't exist. Some fault with the prototype, or such.

Rumour has it that Elite 4 is due in the next few years. Criminy.

Au contraire, mon frere:

Yeah, yeah, it's a mod for the awesome time-vortex that is Oolite, and I'm wriggling before your infinitely superior memory...

This is what gaming is all about.
How's that even possible?

Oh. That's it. Thanks for the info.
Honestly, this is only the first time I have heard this game. And as far as I read, it was released on 1984 so I didn't knew it. I was born in 1988.
