Tbh I'm not a fan of ranking games. Maybe by genre in specific years...there's just so many qualities to compare that makes it dumb. Like if I argued that BotW shouldn't be anywhere near #1 because its story, dungeons, and degradation mechanic were failures, how would I rate Tetris, which has exactly one mechanic, no story, etc.?

All I'd say is that from what I've played, all of these are fun and widely-appealing games.

My #1 is at 77, otherwise none of my favourite games are on this list, though there is some good stuff up there

Not bad.

Breath of the Wild is an orgasmically spectacular video game, but #1 might be a little over the top—especially since it's so new.

Ultra Street Fighter IV is solid, but Third Strike should've earned a spot.

Yoshi's Island and Paper Mario: TTYD are conspicuously missing.

Super Mario 64 doesn't belong anywhere on this list. It wasn't even a good game for its time.

Honestly I just personally don't see the apeal of the series whatsoever, that's all.

BOTW is a top ten game, IMO.

Problems:

MGS3 is still the best MG.
Dark Souls is a solid choice, but Bloodborne doesn't deserve to be here.
GTAIV is better than GTAV, and it's not the best GTA, either.
Destiny is on this list at number 36.
Arkham Knight < Arkham Origins <<<< Arkham City < Arkham Asylum.
Tetris isn't on this list.

Yeah, it doesn't even include the greatest game of the generation, The Witcher 3. With an expansive world, dripping with atmosphere, a game hasn't told as exquisite a story as this before. Never before have I seen such attention to detail in every aspect. CD Projekt Red really needs to be commended for every artistic decision within this godsend of a game. The DLC alone should be on this list, and in the top 10 if you ask me. I've bought the game 3 times on the PS4 just to show my support for this developer, who deserves nothing but absolute praise for this fantastic instalment in The Witcher series. Historians will look back at this game as the first true reappearance of God in the modern age.

I mean we all know Gator loves TW3, and that response had so much effort and detail put into it that I suspiciously believe that you've had that typed up for a while and have just been looking for an excuse to finally post it

I really have no clue, I don't even like the game and I'm baffled it's not on there, especially with its obvious preference for newer games.

No I just typed it now lmao

if it was premeditated I would have put a lot more effort and refinement into it
