Guinness Top 50 Games of All Time, 9-1

So did the people who make this list actually play video games? I am stumped.

I'm guessing they taped a bunch of games to a wall and then threw darts at them with their eyes closed.

This is one of the worst "Top X Games" lists probably ever.

Did you actually play games growing up or did you lay out a giant mat with video game covers and have a monkey walk over it, shit, and then record where it landed? You people have made some terrible lists before but i have to admit, this one is tops...guiness may sponsor this list but i sure they didnt make it.

no zelda: windwaker ?????

N-no Tales of?!

Typical!

TYPICAL.

But two Final Fantasies and too many Malleos... I know Mario was cool, but Namco needs some love too...

This list is so bad it's hilarious? Where the **** is Super Mario 3? Why in God's name is the only Final Fantasy on this list 12! FF12 is at best the 6th best Final Fantasy in the franchise.


And super Mario Kart was just a two player game, it's not even the best Mario Kart in the franchise.

How the hell is mario kart number 1?? Above Zelda and all of the other great games??

mario kart for 64 was better...

Oh if Halo is on the list...and that's a online game,what the hell about FF11??? Or hell... what about World of Warcraft.I mean come on now!!!

lol about the monkey comment. but its true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! these guys are effin stupid for not putting twilight princess!!!!! AND, Mario cart sucks for that version bc of the graphics. when did they make this list; like in the 60s?????? whatever. i hate these lists because theyre so inaccurate. :P

All I have to say it this list is so freaking ridiculous that the person who made this list should never be allowed to talk about video games again.

wheres Donkey Kong?????

This was the most ridiculous list ever. Super Mario Kart 64 was the best one, and that wouldn't even make top 10, as far as the original GTA is was OK, but Vice City was the best in that franchise. I am very disappointed.

Are these the lists of games sold? Because Super Mario Bros. for NES has the most "units sold" than any other game out there. You were right about Tetris being up there in the top 10 because its the best "puzzle" game as far as units sold. I would have shrugged it off if you would have put Mario Cart 64 up, but not the original. I mean no donkey kong, mortal kombat, starcraft, warcraft, diablo, the sims(Number 1 PC game as far as units sold)...I can go on and on. Guinness people suck, I just drink their beer.

WTF. this is the. worst. list. ever. wow. how in the hell is FF12 better than MGS?!

WOW seriously like they are good games but you cannot interpret games to be top 50 like seriously WHERES HALO!!!! not 2 or 3 but the original hrmm what else did these monkeys miss um SF4 maybe how about GEARS OF WAR hrmm hey guiness i think instead of you picking the top 50 games how about let the fans and next time do it into categories instead of blending them all together.....

ps you forgot...

PACman
Streets of Rage
Call of Duty World At War
...god i hate to say it World of warcraft
UH STARCRAFT
hrmm Diablo 2
resident evil 2...
i can go all day......

What.. the fukc? Thtis list is bullsh!t. Ocarina of Time should ALWAYS be #1. Top 3 is the line at which I draw it as excusable, but #5 is too far down. And Wii Sports? Are you kidding? I mean, decently fun game, a nice intro to the Wii, but it wasn't a great game. Super Mario Kart? When's the last time this guy played a game. Super Mario Kart top 50 AT BEST.

eck0phile, they didn't sponsor, they just drank it and decided!

So you're telling me LEGO: star wars (A SHITTY ASS GAME WITH TERRIBLE REVIEWS) is better than

gears of war
rock band
pacman
donkey kong
god of war
World of Warcraft (I don't think there's 12 million people playing LEGO star wars on the DS)
bioshock
zelda windwaker
super mario galaxy
... whoever made this list should be put in a corner and sodomized. your stupidity has been published the world over and you should go play in traffic. go kill yourself.

...Wow, this was the shittiest list for video games ever!!!!!!
i mean i think some of the games were good, but they need a higher rateing (ex. God Of War)

NOONE HAS FUCKING MENTIONED DUES EX?

THAT IS THE GREATEST GAME EVER MADE.

ARE YOU SERIOUS??? WHAT THE HELL!!!! MARIO KART SUCKS MY BALLS!!!!!!!!!!! ARE THEY FROM THE 1800'S? play some real games then make another list cuz u were definatly high when u made this one..... i hate people who think they know shit about games and then pull crap like this!

Are they serious? No Mortal Kombat?????

the best games ever anrent even on this list......

1. World of warcraft (lvl 80 Dk shadowsong relm Antusul.. look me up if u play)
2. diablo 2
3. Warcraft 3
4. starcraft
5. (i know it is already in there just to say that it rocks) FF 11 online.

theres ur fucking list.. republish it right now or ill hunt u down and fornicate u with an iron spike

hahaha.. not kidding.. right now or its a metal spike where the sun dont shine...

LoL this Justin Glow guy should do a little homework before actually posting a list for the world to see...now he just humiliated himself in front of the whole gaming community. However, I like to see how everybody voices their opinion and says what game they think should be on the list, it's interesting...

Anywayz, this list gave me a good laugh, because everybody knows nobody in their right mind would put together this terrible "top 50" pieces of sh*t without being mentally handicapped...

I guess we're all offended because the games that we remember from our childhood aren't featured in this so-called list. Yeah, it suxx, and AOL just lost its privilege to talk about video games, unless they read up on which games were REALLY Top 50 in history...not these...things. NO BRAWL?!? lmao...

lol i bet they made this list so bad just to piss fanboys off on how innacurate it is...not even debatable. :p

this list is crap. super mario bros 3 isnt even on this list. and that game and that game is considered on of the greatest games of all time.

Are you effing KIDDING me?
Ocarina is in no way behind GTA.
Star Fox 64 should have made it into the 20's AT LEAST.
If any Mario game should be at the top it should be the original or 64.
Not effing Mario Kart. Especially not the original.
What is this with excluding SSB: Brawl or even Melee?!
And no PacMan? No CoD? No Donkey Kong?

THIS LIST IS BULL EFFING SHIT!!!

Congratulations list writers, you've succeeded in pissing off millions of fankids, Nerdfighters, and gamers in general.
Way.
To.
Go.

watabout spore! spore was a good game! u guys remember spore! evryone was so excited about it, and it was a rewarding game!!

this is the worst list I've ever seen what kind of idiot likes tetris and where are the other call of duty games who made this list their grandmother ?

You idiots this is a list of console games thats why WOW and other computer games are not in it. God you kids are so stupid

Robotron 2084 is the best game ever made without question.

How are the Super Smash Bros. games not even on the list? ._.

i dont even know where to start this list is ridiculous... all these snes games and no Donkey Kong makes no sense whatsoever... and is it just me or doesnt Ninja Gaiden belong in the top 50... even if it doesnt it is way better then some of the b.s. u have up here

Wow. I'm impressed with how ridiculous this is. There are so many games that are actual classics that should have at least made the top 50. Command & Conquer, for one. Battletoads, Mortal Kombat, Off-Road...anybody remember these games? How about Road Rash, Donkey Kong, or even NBA Jam or one of the NHL's? Who doesn't remember getting sucked into the NHL games where you could just pound on each other, or NBA Jam where you could play as Bill Clinton? Gran Turismo, but not a single Need For Speed? Not even the 3rd? Ridiculous...

Any declarative statment can be argued so basically a top w/e list logically should be based on a popularity contest(in this case 4 gamers). Maybe include a few games like Tetris to satisfy people who stopped playing or whom play very few games but that might come across the list.
To expand:

Which games have the least bugs(technically proficient)? SC wouldn't make the list for sure then! Invisible buildings/floating drones anyone?
Which games are the most fair to the player: SC wouldn't make the list. It's impossible to balance asymetrical warfare. The pros used terran for a reason.
Which game is easy to play? Well SC still wouldnt make the list since the game was all about being able to execute the most commands per minute.
Despite all this millions of people play SC its even on tv in some countries and people have died from playing starcraft for extended periods of time. NO JOKE.

Which game was the most innovative for its time? Goldeneye, WOW, and gigapets. I hardly consider feeding an electronic pet better than owning a pet rock since you need to pay multiple times for the system and batteries. Yet it was a very successful con.

Which games are elligible for the list(I didnt see any cpu/flash) Bloons Tower Defence, Madness Interactive(every Con-artist game IE: Last Stand1&2)
Which game is the most addicting?
'' was the most talked about?
''sold the most/made the most(immediately/long term/adusted/unadjusted)
'' genre,should be included/should every genre be represented by at least 1 game in the list?
What time period is going to be considered?

You get the idea.They did mention 9/50 games that i think most of us liked though.

If the objective was to get the people to talk about games and further fuel the gaming industy then props to the people who wrote the article. And incase you were wondering, i hate starcraft.

This list sucks ballls!!!! Seriously this is a disgrace to all the great games out there! And I dunno how the hell ffxII is up there but not VII.

what the hell yo? why the FUCK perfect dark's not in there? Ocarina of Time should at least be # 1 or 2, and majoras mask should be in there as well. lets not forget nights into dreams as well, and marvel vs capcom 2, worst list i ever read.
