SydLexia.com - The 100 Best SNES Games Ever - 0 views

  •  
    On September 30, 2006, I unveiled my pet project to the world: A list of the 100 best NES games ever. The list wasn't perfect - lists never are - but the reception was generally warm. At the very least, it was warm enough to warrant a sequel. So now here we are, fourteen months later. It has now been three full years since the launch of SydLexia.com, and I figured there's no better way to celebrate than with a list of 100 best SNES games ever. Real fucking creative, I know. I had wanted to do a list of the best Game Boy titles ever, but the preliminary meetings didn't go well. There was this whole huge argument about whether or not the list should be just original Game Boy games or if Game Boy Color games counted as well. Then one guy kept saying we should include Game Boy Advance games because he was born in 1991 and he had no idea what this "Super Mario Land" thing that everyone kept bringing up was. Then someone pointed out to him that he could have looked it up on Wikipedia instead of whining that he didn't know what it was. Punches were thrown, blood was spilled, and everyone accused at least one other person of being gay. So then I did what any self-respecting American would do in my situation: I gave up on my dream and decided to attempting something significantly easier. Thus, the SNES list was born.

All-time Best Arcade Games You've Never Played - 0 views

  •  
    I realized the other day that I've finally read my last "Best 10 arcade games of all time" list. They're very limited, and they tend to have the same games, listed over and over. Usually I don't agree with the choices, either. The games that I've been most passionate about over the years are generally ones that don't make it onto such lists. So here, without further ado, is an off-the-cuff list of the Best Arcade Games Ever. These are the games that, had I room, I would purchase and rebuild for a home arcade, as I wouldn't get tired of playing any of them.

Top 25 SNES games - 0 views

    I had such a good time listing off my favorite NES games, that I just couldn't resist making a list of my top games for my favorite system - the Super Nintendo. I know the SNES isn't as "retro" as the NES, but just because it's not as old, doesn't mean it's not as good. As you can see, this list consists of 25 games, rather then 20 like my last one. I decided to make it a little longer so I could fit a few more of my favorites in. And, although I like the N64, Playstation, PS2, etc., I definitely won't be making a top list for those systems (not only because they're not retro, but they just aren't as special to me as the NES and SNES).

Ten Most Addictive Video Games of All-Time - By Lee Andrew Henderson - 0 views

  •  
    Earlier this year MSNBC.com listed the five video games that they thought were the most addictive video games of all-time. There were a couple of video games on their list that I thought were good choices and a few that I didn't agree with. I thought I would make my own list of what I think are the ten (technically twelve) most addictive video games of all-time. These aren't necessarily just the games that I personally found most addictive because then the list would have to include games like Monster Rancher, Suikoden, Double Dragon, Pirates! and others. These are games that I think are generally addictive to everybody. I'm sure some of you will have different opinions though.

TRB Top One Hundred main page - 0 views

  •  
    As with the previous two TRB Top 100's, this is a long list of favourite games. My favourite games, that is. As with previous listings, the 2008 edition displays what position the game was in the 2006 listing, either (U), (D), (-), (NE) or even (RE).

AGH Special: Top Ten Coin-Op Games Of All Time - 0 views

  •  
    Considering the sheer number of arcade games that have come and gone in the past 25 years, narrowing it down to our ten favorites is a monumental undertaking to say the least! But we're all a sucker for top ten lists, aren't we? And because of the success of the console top ten section, we felt like a section devoted to arcade favorites was only natural. If you have a "top ten" list of your own that you'd like to share with your fellow gamers, please email us at editor@atarihq.com. An explanation of your choices would be super, but a simple list would also be appreciated. Enjoy!

The AGS blog: The top 10 best AGS games series ever! - 0 views

  •  
    Well, there's lots of top 10 lists out there and I thought I'd try and compile my own, but I narrowed down my list of AGS games to about 60... so it was going to be hard work to throw out 50 of those. So, to make things easier, and also to be able to sneak loads more actual games in, I'm going to list the top 10 AGS games serieses ever. I'm not including series that only ever had one game made, because there are loads of them and non-adventures don't count, either. I'm also excluding remake series, but I'll give them an honourable mention (along with some others, so its not even a top 10, really!)

Top 60 Best Video Games of All Time - By Cheap Canuck - 0 views

  •  
    Other lists I've created involving movies, music and sports have certainly sparked some healthy debate and I've had to laugh at the abuse heaped upon my choices in the comments section of those posts. However, I suspect this list of the best video games of all time will trump them all when it comes to reader backlash. Everyone has their own strongly held opinions when it comes to these types of lists, and if a favorite song, movie or athlete is overlooked then outrage naturally seems to follow. However, with video games there is an extra ingredient thrown into the recipe that really adds some spice to the argument. That ingredient is "The Fanboy".

Top 16 Bit Games: A Collection of Classics - By Agaric - 0 views

  •  
    I never thought I'd write a "top ten" list, but I figure that out of the over three hundred articles I've written for this site I'd be safe with this list that will probably contain around ten entries. 16 bit systems are certainly a thing of the past, a relic of the early 1990s that someone with an X-Box would think came out of the 1970s. However, the 16 Bit systems (namely Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo) were responsible for some of the most enjoyable and visually impressive games of all time. This list is devoted to naming and giving honor to some of the best in the bunch. They are in no particular order.

Top 10 NES Games of All Time :: Paste - 0 views

  •  
    The Nintendo Entertainment System, in all its 8-bit glory, began my exciting love affair with the great indoors. The video games on this list kept me company through many an elementary-school sleepover at friends' houses, provided endless fodder for recess playground conversation and even inspired a few short stories from yours truly (each plot revolving around the fantasy of getting sucked inside a video game). In honor of the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, I dedicate this list and to Shigeru Miyamoto and all the other folks at Nintendo who made all that fun possible...oh, and of course my beloved aunt Jean who sent me and my siblings our first NES console.

The Best Super Nintendo (SNES) Games Under $10 - RetroGaming with Racketboy - 1 views

  •  
    When you add a console to your collection, the first thing you want to do is get a handful of games to keep you busy with your new toy. However, most of us can't spend afford to spend fat pile of cash for a few games. This budget-friendly list should help you quickly find which games will start you off well without emptying your wallet.   Since the SNES is quickly growing with nostolgic collectors, it's getting harder to find real values in the SNES market.   However, as long as you don't mind skipping the harder-to-find cardboard boxes for the games, you can find these classics for $10 or less.  (Prices listed are an average eBay price for US cartridge-only games, including shipping)

The Top 20 Greatest Games For Your Atari | Atari Alumni & Video Game News - 0 views

  •  
    How many times have you clicked on a "World's Greatest Video Games" link only to discover that most of the games listed were released within the past few months? Or even worse, the list omits such important video gaming milestones like Pong, Asteroids, or Tempest 2000?

Top 25 Sega Genesis Games - 0 views

  •  
    Here we are another year, and another list for you to look at. Seriously why do we need to show off a list of games for a 16 bit console that most people call the 2nd best for its time? Because it OWNED, that's why. The Sega Genesis was when gaming went from toy to fanism, where lines were drawn in the sand and you either wore the blue or the red. If you were in LA at the time, you could not go into a red neighborhood without being mocked about blast processing. Riots ensued and musicals were written (...c'mon no one saw that piece I did 8 years ago?) and to this day the Genesis does what the Nintendon't, and by that I mean make good Saturday morning cartoons.

Favorite Atari 2600 Games [Atari 2600 Memories] - 0 views

  •  
    Below is a list of my favorite Atari 2600 games. Some are current favorites and others I liked better when they were new back in the 1980s. There are many games I haven't had a chance to play, so this list will probably change as I discover new favorites. Each game is linked to the appropriate AtariAge.com page in case you want instruction manuals, screenshots, scans, or ROMs.

    This list may not always show 100 games, depending on your choice of model and number of needed votes. The higher number of votes you choose, the more trusty this list gets.

Top 10 NES Games of All Time - By Michael Strauss - 0 views

  •  
    The Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) was the dominant video game console of the early and mid 1980s. Released in 1985, the NES single handedly rejuvenated the console video game industry after the video game crash of 1983. The games released on the NES have becomes classics and many defined the genres they represented and continue to influence design philosophy in modern games. There are so many excellent games from the NES that any list will inevitably leave off games deserving of honor. The list below comprises games that were both classics and have a lasting legacy.

  •  
    Some people say that the Game Boy is just like your old Aunt Ethel - it just refuses to go away and die (but these people should be pitied because the Game Boy is the coolest thing ever made!). Now that the Game Boy Color is in town, it's a good chance to go digging through the thousands of old games in your local software store, and we've given you a shopping list of the best ones you can still get (as well as some to put on your shopping list).

The Best Dreamcast Games For Today: The Top Titles That Still Matter - RetroGaming with... - 0 views

  •  
    It's pretty easy to find a list of "The Top 10 Dreamcast Games" or some similar ranking, but most of them were written back when the console was still on the retail scene and almost all of them only compare the games against other Dreamcast games. This is all fine if the Dreamcast is the only console you own and ever plan to own. However, I know for a fact that most Dreamcast owners now are hardcore retro fans that happen to own a few different consoles - both old and new. There may also be a few gamers out there wondering if they should bother adding a Dreamcast to their collection. Because of this, I thought it would be a good idea to develop a list of games that are still relevant in today's gaming market because of their unique gameplay that has not been improved upon on other consoles.

Top 25 SNES Games that are NOT RPGs - 0 views

  •  
    Okay, I get it. Many of you were not of the "Genesis does" crowd like I was as a kid. That doesn't mean I do not appreciate the Super Nintendo. I have both systems, I was a little late to the game that's all. As a kid I had the pleasure of bargain shopping for the SNES at the end of its run, plus all the trades I managed to do in school combined for me playing literally hundreds of games for the system. With my massive knowledge of this system I thought to do a follow up to my other Top 25 games list by choosing its main rival. Why 25? Well its only fair that I keep the number the same from my previous list that's all.
