I have 2 agree with Final Fantasy VII. It is one of the best kick-ass games of all time. Allthough I think Fallout3 should be added to the list.

I agree with pretty much every pick on this list but 3. The SNES runner-up should be either Super Mario RPG or Chrono Trigger. The N64 runner-up should be Zelda: Ocarina of Time. And Gamecube's best was Resident Evil 4.

I agree with Super Mario 64 being the best for the N64...

But, comeon, Conkers Bad Fur Day should be 2nd, that game was epic...

No other game can you become a drunk squirrel, and piss on other drunk people.

And, it had pretty beast multiplayer.

Wow, amazing how well the NeoGeo's graphics hold up over time. That Samurai Showdown shot isn't far off some of the screen caps from the SFIV review.

Also, good to see Donkey Kong topped the Coleco list. (I used to work with the fellow responsible for that port. He's a heavy-metal-playing Buddhist monk and a hell of an engineer.)

Great list, kinda surprised to see Rock Band on there. It's not that I don't think its a great game, just didn't expect to see it, or any other music game on here. Hooray for rock band.

What about the Atari 7800?

I do believe that TimeSplitters 2 deserves a recognition on the GameCube. Any game in which you can murder everything from gingerbreadmen to snowmen to squids is amazing.

WTF? Ys Books I&II is (1)two games and (2) not a Turbo Duo game, but a regular Turbo CD game. I also found it strange that the C64, three eras of the PC, and the Apple II get some spotlight, but the Atari 400/800/1200 don't count because they're computers? Also, what about the Atari 7800? As for my choices, I'll just go over some of the more important ones to me:
NES 1. Life Force 2. The Legend of Zelda
SNES 1. Chrono Trigger 2. Yoshi's Island
DS 1. Metroid Prime Pinball 2. Mario Kart DS
N64 1. Zelda: OoT 2. Perfect Dark
GCN 1. Resident Evil 4 2. Soul Calibur II
PS2 1. Yakuza 2 2. Onimusha 3: Demon Siege
PS1 1. Need For Speed III 2. Xenogears
PSP 1. Burnout Dominator 2. Loco Roco 2.
PS3 1. Full Auto 2 2. Genji 2
XBOX 1. Burnout 3 2. Midtown Madness 3
360 1. Burnout Paradise 2. GTA4
Genesis 1. Sonic 2 2. Virtua Racing
Saturn 1. Panzer Dragoon Saga 2. Daytona USA
DC 1. Crazy Taxi 2. Jet Grind Radio
2600 1. Pitfall 2 2. Adventure
Neo-Geo 1. Garou: Mark of the Wolves 2. Last Blade 2
32-X 1. Space Harrier 2. Star Wars Arcade

Hmm, I agree with most of this. I was however, shocked to see that final fantasy: crisis core did not even make runner-up for the psp...wow. Also, I think pokemon red/blue>>tetris, man the hours I sunk into that game..
jpb647  - 1 year 17 days ago 
I think that Call of duty 4 should have got it for the ps3 but that just me dont you guys. I mean come the graphics are amazing and same with the gameplay.Have any of you guys played it online its amazing and you get so much customization so i think it should have won.
