Topic: The Most Important Games of all Time

Motivation for developers so they don't rush and make crappy games?

Mother 2. Think about it, it showed that RPGS don't need to be limited to knights and swords, and that's saying something at that time period.

You already posted in this topic and "failed" to mention Dragon Quest.

So if anyone has failed, it's you.

Actually, those are both incorrect; Tennis For Two is the first video game and depending on one's definition of 3D, the first game was either 3D Monster Maze or Wolfenstein 3D (it was the first game to use raycasting).

Nope. You're wrong.

@Swiket

Because that game didn't perfect the genre.

I'm curios; what does Half-Life do wrong that Modern Warfare 4 does 100% right? I'm not exactly against your point; if you bring up valid points, then I'll believe you.

EDIT: Assume "Wrong" means "good".

Night Trap, Mortal Kombat, Lethal Enforcers, and Doom which due to those games lead to the creation of ratings for video games and the ESRB.

Pong, PAC-man, donkey kong, ET, Super Mario Bros., super Mario bros 3, Final Fantasy, Sonic the hedgehog, Twisted Metal, DKC, Final Fantasy 7, MGS, super Mario 64, Pokemon RBGY, Super smash bros., street fighter 2, MGS3, kIngdom Heats, mega man, kid Icarus uprising, COD MW, Halo, Nintenodogs, Wii Sports, The legend of Zelda, Zelda OOT, Tetris, and Super Metroid

Rampage.

I'd say Super Mario Bros. It may not have been the first video game, but it surely was the one that saved the industry and made it go mainstream.

Super Metroid, for taking the formula established by the first two games in the series and perfecting it...

Come at me bros

Super Mario bros
legend of zelda
Age of empires
Pokemon
Counter strike
Final Fantasy
Dragon Quest
Pokemon
Super Metroid
Super Mario 64
The Legend of Zelda: Orcarina of time
Doom
Golden Eye: 007
Halo Combat Evolved
Halo 2
Heavy Rain
Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved
Wii Sports

A revolutionary game for a boring console.

The first game was this.

I never compared either one of them but Modern Warfare did more in terms of perfection. Hence its reception.
