Hmmn.. GTA is my most notable exception which probably should be on the list.

Good spot, not sure how that happened, down to candidates for places 11-25
One of which I almost obliged to leave due to it's glaring omission from so many other peoples lists

EDIT:
and the last 360 exclusive bites the dust

Just crossed over 400 games voted for.

I'm genuinely very interested in seeing how the final list turns out, though I can't say I envy you the task of creating said list, PP.

I'm amazed we've gotten to 400, some real variety on GRcade.

Excel does the hard part. I just have to type numbers.

Of which I've put the points in for 1125+ votes...

twice.

I don't think there's been a list yet when I haven't had to put a new game on the list, if there has been then only two or three.

And we have the 25, Mario 64 was the last to go

I don't think you'll be adding any more to that 400 based on my list, it's only really controversial in one way.

EDIT: I had Half Life 2, ep1, ep2 in my top 25 twice one game gets a reprieve.

God how could I miss out Xcom enemy unknown, Hitman Blood Money, Theme park, lemmings 2, damn so many great games so few to fit into the 25. Oh well im sticking to my gut instinct. If a game takes too much time to be thought of, it clearly isnt one of my favourites.

It Is Done
I need to get this laminated to carry around in my wallet

1) Ocarina of Time - N64
2) Perfect Dark - N64
3) Mario Galaxy - Wii
4) Paper Mario TTYD - GC
5) Twilight Princess - Wii
6) Wind Waker - GC
7) Half Life 2, Ep1, Ep2 - 360,PC,PS3
8) Mario Kart 64 - N64
9) Super Smash Bros - N64
10) WWF No Mercy - N64

11) Link To The Past - SNES
12) Super Metroid - SNES
13) Lylat Wars - N64
14) Transport Tycoon - PC
15) Wii Sports - Wii

16) Majoras Mask - N64

21) REmake - GC
22) Animal Crossing Wild World - DS
23) Pikmin - GC
24) Super Smash Bros Brawl - Wii
25) Mario 64 - N64

I'm loving that list
I'd be surprised if more than 1 didn't make it into the GR top 100

Some stats;
9 N64 games
4 Wii Games
4 Gamecube Games
2 SNES Games
1 PS3 Game
1 DS Game
1 PC
1 Multiformat Game

14 Games directly by Nintendo
6 Games made by second party developers to Nintendo
1 Game made by Capcom
1 Game made by Naughty Dog
1 Game made by Valve
1 Game made by Aki/Asmik
1 Game made by Chris Sawyer

7 Appearances from Link
7 Appearances from Mario


And if anyone's still interested at this point, the 25 games making up my top 50 of all time, in no particular order


First person that mentions a game to make me think 'gooseberry fool!' gets a punch in the face.

Really...thats an unhealthy amount of Nintendo.

I'll accept that until I see Mirrors Edge in your list.

A lot of impossible-not-to-include games in there. If you deleted from existence most of these games it'd be like deleting part of my childhood; the only part that matters, the only part I care to remember. How sad. Will pm eventually, but might tinker first. How can I leave Jet Force Gemini out?! Pikmin?! Chaos Engine?! Earthworm Jim!?

strawberry float off, it's my list.

Calm down dear, it's only a commercial

Seriously though, seeing as you're a Sonic fan, surely you would rate Sonic Adventure higher than Unleashed? I'm just interested

I've decided that I'm not going to post a Top 10/15 or anything other than an alphebetical list of the 100 games.

As for the scoring system I think they're going to yield similar results so I'm probably going to use my points system and use the equal points system as a way of determining which games get in that are right on the 100 line. There may have to be a poll of a handful of games to deterine what gets in and what doesn't.

I'm also going to see if a couple more series' can be grouped together either to boost it's overall score and see it into the final 100 or simply to free up a bit more room if the series is already in the 100!

This is all very confusing

Ok I think this going to be the final list, quite pleased with it actually.

2.Mario Kart [SNES]
3.Shadow Of the Collousus [PS2]
4.Rez HD [XBOX 360]

Sorry, I got cheesed off when I just happen to like games that others doesn't like at all.

To be honest as much as I liked Sonic Adventure, there's something about Unleashed that just clicks with me so much I ended up enjoying it enough to keep playing it. Even Werehog levels didn't bother me at all (okay maybe it's more of understanding what to do in each level and max Strength helps ALOT, so I ended up enjoying these more than I should). Maybe I just like my Sonic to be 'fast', yet relies on reflexes & memorising everything and Sonic Unleashed offers me that. Getting S Ranks' fun and hot dog challenges last me for long, long time..well apart from shitty last level. strawberry float that long-ass level.

Oh, and reason I didn't include Sonic 1/3 is that it's really same as Sonic 2, I just want to give other games a chance to be on my top 25. That and Sonic 2's my favourite Sonic game.
