It was the best-selling computer game of all time until The Sims, if I recall.

On that topic, I was the only person to vote for The Sims as well.

Im surprised Arkham Asylum didnt make the list. I didn't play many games on the 360/ps3 era, but that 1 was definitely a highlight

I guess. But i'm not really wrong. Bethesda took Fallout in a completely different direction. I haven't heard of anyone who was a fan of the Fallout franchise who liked Fallout 3. It was kind of an insult to the franchise.

I preferred FO3 to NV because it had better atmosphere. Neither came close to the originals.

I was surprised Crash Bandicoot ended up so low. Thought it might have got some nostalgia votes. Another one I have never been able to finish...

... and I just remembered my other vote. I'm the only person who voted for Rayman 2? Now that's a travesty.

I thought that it'd be in the top-10 for sure. :laugh: Didn't exactly go that way.

Setting for me. I thought Washington DC was more interesting than Vegas for that type of game.

NV is a better game though.

I preferred Vegas over DC for settings. the casinos and stuff had a lot more style than the DC buildings and monuments imo(and especially the subway. not a fan). and i found the turf wars type of thing a much more compelling story. Bethesda seems to have a knack for making (what I consider) bland settings

My list:
1) Rainbow Six 3: Raven Shield (NR)
2) Fallout 2 (39)
3) Fallout 1 (NR) :shakehead
4) Gothic 2: Night of the Raven (NR)
5) The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (1)
6) Unreal Tournament 3 (NR)
7) Deus Ex (23)
8) Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn (32)
9) Command & Conquer: Red Alert. (NR)
10) Civilization IV (31)


Who voted for Gothic 1?
I think it was just Zodiac and I who voted C&C Red Alert.

Biggest surprise for me that didn't make the top 50 was not a single Resident Evil game.

1. Baldur's Gate 2 (#32)
2. Mass Effect 1 (#16)
3. Homeworld (NR)
4. Baldur's Gate 1 (NR)
5. Super Mario Bros 3 (#4)
6. Bioshock (#5)
7. Rome: Total War (NR)
8. Dragon Age: Origins (NR)
9. Half Life (#47)
10. Diablo 2 (#7)

Had I remembered Portal 1, it might've made my list. Somehow Homeworld isn't on the list at all even though I voted for it, so I assume that no one else voted for it which is a shame.

Homeworld is there, I noticed it and remembered the game when I saw it.

#140 (1 third place vote), although I don't doubt I made some mistakes on this. There was one point where I marked down Super Smash Bros. instead of Super Mario Bros. and it took me forever to find out what I did wrong as to why the numbers weren't matching up.

Likewise to people, thanks for participating. I got a lot more responses than I thought I would, which only makes for a better list.

Whoops, accidentally had Match Case on my Ctrl+F. My bad.

All in all I think the top 50 went about as well as you could expect. I don't see a single game in there that I think really doesn't belong. You can quibble about placement issues, but in this format I really don't consider those to be serious complaints.

Thanks to Trap Jesus for doing all of this.

Or just the wrong genres?

No battlefield made the list, and Starcraft and Age of Empires 2 are the only RTS that made it (unless i missed 1)

KOTOR doesn't really have a direct comparable
