ILX'S 100 GREATEST VIDEO GAMES EVER

best selling N64 game ever in the US, xp to self

Fuck it, if Rise of the Robots had the GTA:SA soundtrack I would have voted for it.

Dude, even if the levels had been copied from the house I grew up in, I would have been lost because everything would have looked the same. Can you even jump in this POS?

"There are rooms with no direct relevance to the level" === "there's random shit that wastes your time and they didn't get around to filling it up with enemies, items, or details to distinguish it from every other environment in the game."

I didn't vote in this. CT would've been my #1.

I hope Earthbound is on the list, but I kinda doubt it

We're really running out of time for ULTIMA 7 to make its JUSTIFIED AND TRIUMPHANT entrance...

"Krusty is coming. Krusty is coming. Krusty is coming."

#4: Super Mario World (1990)

guys guys are there no fighting games in this? if there were surely SF2 or MK will show up soon!

xpost Wtf sacrilege

hahaha oh shit LTTP beat all of these

omfg you people are going to hate yourselves

I suppose I can get behind that but I thought it was "tepid" compared to mario world

Doctor Casino, you just sound like the n00b upon whom better players fattened themselves.

Yoshi's Island for #1

yeah deathmatch FPS games tend to inspire much enmity from the "where the fuck am I" crowd, of which I am one

^^^still to come

Again: I played Goldeneye TRYING TO GET KILLED and couldn't do it because the multiplayer takes place in a meaningless No-Place with no past, present, future or any distinguishing marks.

stfu Dr Morbius Casino

better not be Halo ....

Fox looks pretty cool there.

And I speak, as mentioned way upthread, as a lover of the genre, aghast at what was being lapped up as a bold new development. If Goldeneye had been a PC game it would have been laughed off as being even shittier than Heretic or Rise Of The Triad.

Mario World and SMB3 need to switch places. Both great games though.

Goldeneye was popular because most high school students didn't have lans with multiple ethernet equipped pentiums in their houses.

I don't think there are enough xbox owners/gayzor mountains residents on ilx for that to happen, re: HALO

halo was like #73 or something

Oddly missing: Punchout!

At this point I have forgotten that any other ILX thread exists.

No Wizball no credibility.

Games I nominated that didn't make the 100:

Sid Meier's Civilization II
Spellbreaker
Final Fantasy III
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver
A Mind Forever Voyaging

I think only 1 of those is in the top 2.

er, voted for, not nominated

Link fixed (I think):

A Mind Forever Voyaging is upthread.

No way, it's gotta be FF3 and Civ, it's just a matter of what order.

Tetris for the victory!

Final Fantasy VI FTW!

TETRIS IS VERY VERY OVERRATED AND I DON'T TO SEE IT WIN.

ugh no sf2 no cred

Oh wait, yeah, Tetris is gonna be up there. Wait, that means either FF3 or Civ isn't on the list at all.

#1. Snood

#1 Tetris, #2 Civ

Guys we need some Autoduel on here, that game ruled

Oh come, SF2 sucks donkey balls. Fuck E. Honda and his hundred-hand slap.

I'm not sure how Tetris can be called overrated. It's like calling Checkers overrated. I was watching some webvideo on Tetris recently and one of the people on it correctly noted that in 100 years, it's likely that only Tetris will be around in its original form. It's flawless.
