IC Arcade's 100 Greatest Video Games of All Time

[goldenja]

20. Odd World: Abes Oddesey (Playstation, 1997) (If there was a top 100 hardest games of all time, this should make top 5.)

19. River City Ransom (NES, 1989)

18. Ristar (Sega Genesis, 1995) (Last game I can remember playing on this system. Great game, for being 5-years old.)

17. Yoshi's Story (N64, 1998) (Two words, Black Yoshi.)

16. Streets Of Rage 2 (Sega Genesis, 1992) (I remember feelin' like a god after beating this)

15. Mario Sunshine (Gamecube, 2002) (I Personally think its the MOST underrated Mario game.)

14. Pikmin (Gamecube, 2001)

13. Bully (PS2, 2006) (GTA meets boarding school)

12. NBA Jam (Sega Genesis, 1994) (HE'S ON FIREEE!!)

11. Mortal Kombat 2 (SNES, 1994)

10. Mario Party (N64, 1999) (One of them games where I'm sure it fried my brain, no regrets)

9. Golden Eye 007 (N64, 1997) (I remember playing mindless hours with my cousins with bonethugs n harmony playing in the background)

8. Sonic CD (Sega Saturn, 1993) (Usually I'd say the 1st one, but this one was way more creative, just better, period.)

7. Super Smash Bros. (N64, 1999) (I still remember being at my grandmas house playing this with my cousins till 5AM. Back then, that was the longest I ever stayed up)

6. The Sims (PC, 2000) (From ages 10-12 this is all I played, aside from pokemon)

5. GTA San Andreas (PS2, 2004) (Last game I was REALLY excited about)

4. Mario Kart (SNES, 1992) (Pure fun, childhood memories)

3. Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64, 1998)

2. Super Mario World (SNES, 1991) (The best Mario game, hands down)

1. Pokemon Red/Blue (Gameboy, 1998) (If you were to give me a choice between this game and crack... I woulda chose this game with no second guessing.)

Dope list...Odd World is fuckin' DOPE...Ristar was dope too...Mario Sunshine is the weird one...Not Galaxy or Galaxy 2?...

Also, what's the most Pokemon you've ever collected?...When I first went through it, I got 146

i still aint beat odd world yet. thats the only reason why i ranked it so high.

yeah, come to find out ristar was made by the same people who created sonic.

honestly, i never played mario galaxy yet.. is it better than sunshine?

damn.. if i were to guess.. 130 at the most

Lets not forget

what is this game called?! it wont play for some reason

River City Ransom

 

[DillaDeaf]

Will add some more to the list:

Betrayal At Krondor --- one of the best underrated RPG (based on a fun book series too) for the PC.

Left 4 Dead (the original one) -- the premise was so fucking dope, and on top of that -- you actually found out who would had your back in real life -- shit hilarious when your homie for life doesn't help you.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare -- I haven't played all the Call of Duty games (only MW, MW2, MW3) , but I found MW to be the most realistic plot wise in the story ...the bulidup to the nuke and then the feeling of payback you want after that scene
