Finding The Greatest Game Ever (Rules Inside)

[Earth]

Let's figure out what is the greatest game ever

One man alone can not say what is the greatest game ever. But if 70 out of 100 people say a certain game is the greatest ever it must be considered that.

These are the rules:

- You can list only your top 10 favorite games of all time

- List them in order, because your favorite game of all time will receive 10 points, your second favorite 9 points, 3rd 8 points, and so on all the way down to your 10th favorite receiving only 1 point.

- I will keep track of the total amount of points each game gets here in the first post

- You may change your top 10 as many times as you want but be sure to let me know you did so

- The game that has the most points must be considered the greatest of all time by popular vote.

I find it's easiest to just think of the games that you've spent the most time playing, not because they were time-consuming or because you wanted to earn something, but just because you enjoyed playing them for hours upon hours upon hours. This is true of most of the games on my list. I still wish I could cram more games in, though:

1. Mechwarrior 2 (PC)
2. Final Fantasy VI (SNES)
3. Enthusia Professional Racing (PS2)
4. Super Smash Bros. Melee (GCN)
5. Ace Combat 04 (PS2)
6. Super Metroid (SNES)
7. Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner (PS2)
