And apparently gaming mostly sucked before 2004, as 7 of the top 10 games were released within the last year...
Where's that "Hey Hey 16k" video when I need it?

What the fuck is this all about then?
Never heard of it before?
And yes... people seem to have a very short memory.
What about the first time you played Mortal Kombat, or hammered round a track with your mates on Mario Kart?
Gaming in general, is very good at the moment, however for these games to be in the top ten, something is very, very wrong

See the current issues of Edge or Games™.
Seems to be a hack n slash puzzle adventure, if I've read it right.

God of war is an action/platform/adventure game. I haven't had the chance to play it myself, but my friends who have were completely blown away by it. I think I read somewhere that idea behind the game was some guy's lifelong idea and the game itself has been in development for quite some time. Or something.

This list sucks. I agree with MGS III and HL2, but not GTA:SA, in my opion, Vice City still pwns it.

yay for magical moderation!
The game will probably be one of the PS2 "Greatest Hits" or whatever they call 'em when they have a popular game that they sell for $20 after a while around here.

Argh!!!
Me not happy with this at all!
I once tried to make my "Top Ten Games Ever", but gave up after deciding [OBSESSED] gaming has given me too many happy memories and great moments that I couldn't decide.[/OBSESSED]

I can explain this list. IGN readers are all dumbfucks. I mean, Soulcaliber? that game fucking blows. I beat almost everyone by just hitting the attack key over and over again... Where's the Civilization 2 and the original Half-Life?
SimCity 2000 fucking owned.

A bit pointless, really. Noone is ever going to make a list that everyone agrees with.
Also: this thread contains two variations of 'own'. I feel obliged to warn you all before I begin loading the rifle.

I just find it hard to list a game as "greatest of all time" when it's only been out for a few months (if that!) I mean, being "greatest of all time" would mean that they are still great to pick up, even YEARS after their debut. I know it's hard to judge that on newer games, and the list should cover all games, but really, 6 of the 10 and new games, and apparently never touched an NES or older before in their life.
By the way, Mega Man 2 is one of the greatest games ever made
What's everyone's top lists? No need for a ranking, that's just too hard. What are your top games?
