Topic: Your Top 10 Games of All Time

Spurred on by Corbie posting his list in the "are you hardcore?" topic.

I actually sat down and thought about it a few days ago for a blog project I haven't had time to write yet. So here's my list. Give your own some thought, and I'd love to see what others come up with.

10) Bubble Bobble (NES)
9) Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! (NES)
8) Half-Life 2 (PC)
7) Tetris (various)
6) A Link to the Past (SNES)
5) Maniac Mansion (PC)
4) Metroid Prime 3 (Wii)
3) Pac-Man (Arcade)
2) Freddy Pharkas: Frontier Pharmacist (PC)
1) Majora's Mask (N64)

I am going to do something slightly different. Below are probably my top 10 favorite games, but I've separated them into separate Top 5 lists because I find it impossible to compare multiplayer games to single player games. Is that just me?

Top 5 Multi-Player:
5) Super Mario Brothers (actually, this one more than the rest is great single-player, too)
4) Super Mario Brothers 3
3) Super Mario World
2) Smash Brothers Brawl
1) Super Mario Kart

Top 5 Single Player
5) An Untitled Story
4) The Legend of Zelda
3) Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
2) Earthbound
1) Mother 3

Also, I'll give an honorable mention to Metroid Prime Hunters for multi-player. I absolutely love the game and think it is the best FPS ever; however, there are a few problems that have nothing to do with the game design, and more to do with the system and the players online.

Hmm... Every multi-player game I listed has Mario in it. And chances are New Super Mario Brothers Wii will be on that list very soon.

Here they are again...

I'm surprised at the relatively small presence Mario has in these lists overall. Don't know quite WHY I'm surprised...but I am.

(Also, to all you cheaters out there listing a series as a single game...boo-urns.)

Don't worry. I have him covered.

That would result in a personal Top 30 or something - who whats to see a Top10 with 50% Mario titles ?
