Yes, another best game ever poll, but this one I found on the BBC News site (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/6261546.stm) reporting of an Edge magazine poll, asking readers and industry insiders to vote on teh best game ev0r.
The list:
1. Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. (Nintendo - N64)
2. Resident Evil 4. (Capcom - GameCube, PS2, Wii)
3. Super Mario 64. (Nintendo - N64)
4. Half Life 2. (Valve - PC)
5. Super Mario World. (Nintendo - SNES)
6. Zelda: A Link to the Past. (Nintendo - SNES)
7. Halo: Combat Evolved. (Bungie - Xbox)
8. Final Fantasy XII. (Square - PS2)
9. Tetris. (Nintendo\Some Russian Bloke - GameBoy)
10. Super Metroid. (Nintendo - SNES)
Everyone has their own personal choices, but overall I think it’s not a bad list. I've always said Nintendo make the best games, and always have, and this seems to be the general consensus, as they have top spot, and most of the other spots. Pretty obvious that Zelda X or Super Mario X was going to win, just select one at random. Sony, Sega and Microsoft between them have never quite matched the magic that Nintendos flagship titles have.
I've not played Resident Evil 4 yet - saving it for when I get the Wii Edit, so I can't comment, but switch FF12 for FF7, and remove Halo, which has never been even a great game, let alone one of the best games ever (Goldeneye instead?) and its not the worst top 10 I've ever seen.
Tetris - not for me. Good game, but it’s like a Rubik’s cube, you go back to it now, and it reminds you of the dodgy 80s, and is no fun.
Overall roughly what I expected though.
Thoughts?
