Interestingly, I was inspired to make this by Colin Cowherd's sports radio talk show. He was trying to decide who the greatest NFL quarterback of all time was, and he had an interesting way of doing so. And I thought that we could do the same here, but with games. And we could see what game this community considers to be the best of all time!
First, we'll narrow it down to 64 best games. We'll discuss it until we have a list we can (more or less) agree on.
Then come the brackets. We'll create 32 match ups (of two games each), and we'll vote on which game is the better between those two. Then, the ones that get the most votes will move up to round two, and so on and so forth, until we're left with one game left. And that will be the one that this community thinks is the best!
When voting, you should vote on all of the match ups at once to make it quicker. And, I might not be able to update this all the time, so if someone else (or some other people) who are on here more often can help keep track of votes and such, that would be a big help. In the event of a tie, we'll decide what to do when it happens.
This should be a lot of fun, and interesting, too, if it works the way I hope it will!

Alright, I'll keep a list in the OP so you can all see what's been nominated so far. You can also argue to have a game removed from the list. Especially if we end up going over 64, which I don't think will happen.
Uncharted 2 Top priority
Uncharted 3 Top priority
Batman Arkham City Top priority
inFamous
The Ico & Shadow of the Colosuss Collection

First, we'll narrow it down to 64 best games. We'll discuss it until we have a list we can (more or less) agree on.
Then come the brackets. We'll create 32 match ups (of two games each), and we'll vote on which game is the better between those two. Then, the ones that get the most votes will move up to round two, and so on and so forth, until we're left with one game left. And that will be the one that this community thinks is the best!
So basically like the tournament that just finished at vc-forums. And judging from how that faired...good luck with that.
Donkey Kong Country Returns: My favorite game ever
Super Mario Galaxy: My favorite Mario game, because it evolved Mario in a completely amazing way
Professor Layton (All of them)
Super Smash Bros. Brawl: HAPPY 5th ANNIVERSARY (If you are reading this on Saturday)

Well it's kinda like the anime one we did a while back... sure it'll take a while to get 64 but then it'll be smooth sailing!
