Guinness World Records 2009 Gamer's Edition: Top 50 Console Games of All Time

[Librarian Mike]

To each his own, I guess. Seeing this list gives me a good idea for a new thread though...(kidding)

Finally, a list that is respectable and I mostly agree with. *tips hat*

Bioshock > System Shock 2 and deserves it's spot. I played both when they were released (SS2 being much, much older) and while they're both really great, I found Bioshock to be conceptually more engaging and enjoyable. Then again I did swap from being a PC elitist to one of the great console unwashed years ago and haven't looked back.

Once you set the "all time best" bar.. I mean.. "all time" is a really long time.. How do you ever compete with that?

I think this is the most inaccurate list I have ever seen. There are games that are 1000 times better than Super Mario Kart. I think they should do this list again.

PS. Chrono Trigger deserves to be higher in my opinion.

* Crash Bandicoot (#49) i recently played one of those new crash bandicoot games...they killed it.....killed it like george lucas killed starwars.

Who's they? Sony and Naughty Dog sold it to EA when they had exhausted it - the people who were with it when it was good have nothing to do with the current people.

that explains alot. but what happened to the old guys do you know which studios bought them up?

If Halo went on the top of the list i wouldve ran out of my house and killed the first living thing i saw!

oh thanks god my new avatar worked

i disagree with the FF 12 being on that list it by all means should say FF X instead since most FF fans would agree its far better.

 

[Strong Intelligent]

My ideas...
Timesplitters.

Wipeout fusion.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Pokemon Red/Blue not in top 10? Blasphemy.

You mean the studio that made the game first? They're Naughty Dog. The guys who bought it? Activision (It was one of the titles that killed off Brutal Legend and Ghostbusters). Its sorta bounced around from developer to developer - no-one wants to touch it for too long.

Exact same thing happened to Spyro.

lol video game politics destroy so much potential, all because suits want to make a bigger profit. I'm sure theres a conspiracy in there somewhere.

Gawd, is the anything EA doesn't own?
They will buy anything.
