Don't actually go to the website, the Times is an awful publication. How do I know this? Not a SINGLE C&C game made the list.

Mass Effect 3 and Counter-Strike don't deserve to be in that list. ME3 is overrated and COD4 Modern Warfare pwns Counter-Strike with quality maps and gameplay features.

 

Dune II? :o I am surprised.

 

Other games still missing in the list:

Grand Theft Auto IV (not GTA III)

Company of Heroes

Starcraft II

C&C, C&C Red Alert

Half-Life (the original is better than the second)

Portal 2 (Portal 1 is too short to be a game)

Halo 3

Left 4 Dead 2

Plants vs Zombies

Atleast it had Dune 2, the game that created the RTS genre as we know it.

I am surprised there is no Ultima 1 or Akalabeth on there in all honesty. Why in the hell isn't TESIII or TESV on that list either?

I think they're only promoting one game from franchises.

 

Also, nothing from the Fallout series! Disgraceful. :angry:

@Doctor Destiny

Final Fantasy VII is also an overrated game, but it is on a list.

 

While there's been set Final Fantasy Tactics, someone forgot to add one of the best tactical command game... Commandos!

I thought FFVII was a good game long before I ever heard the hype surrounding it. I think FFVI fanboys just like calling it overrated as a biased reaction against its hype. And also for the record, FFVI sucked like a vampiric vacuum cleaner. :snooty:

I never played FF VI, but i had "opportunity" to play FF VIII, which was far far more worse than predecessor.

 

What concerns FFVII is that game have a plot totally ridiculous, boring - and the most important thing - meaningless. Some guy with team which includes cat with megaphone who rides on "thing" similar to Jiglypuff from Pokemon, a guy who reminds Mr. T from "A-Team", and three totally boring female heroes, chases a guy who don't want to admitt, that his mother was tremendous headless monster, whose purpose was to annihilate life on a planet, so "son" wants to finish undone job.

Only Japs could manage something like this, and only thing which is missing in this "heartbreaking story" is a lonely octopus, who at the end could marry one of three most boring, childish female heroes of all time. I wonder why did i bought this game... only game mechanic and graphic is on really high level.

FF7 is overrated only because of the fanbase that lauded Sephiroth as the "bestest villain evar!" Sephiroth sucks. And I don't just mean Cloud's dick like we see in the fan art. He was all around weak as a villain. No class, no style, no redeeming traits. At least Kefka had the decency to have mostly won and he has Dancing Mad. And that is the greatest song in video gaming. Ever.

 

In any case, FF7 deserves a spot on the list. Crappy villain aside, it's actually a really good game. It's Final Fantasy in three dimensions. And that's not been a bad thing since Final Hallway 13.

One thing is clear: If you want to show the "power" of PSX you launch FF VII or Metal Gear Solid.
