IGN's top 100 games of all time, don't ask me how FF2, X-com, and Street Fighter made it into the top 10 =P</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>X-Com kicked ass!</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Wait a month or two, they'll do another, probably with different results.</div>

[Torgo]

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Seriously. Isn't this the second one in like a month?</div>

[Don]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>the Mind Control stuff made the game too easy though.</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Nothing brought a smile to my face more than the exclusion of certain games. And SMB still kicks lots of ass, although I don't agree how low some games got (FF3 and PS2 for example; they're better than that) and some that were missing (Tetris Attack, PS1)</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I don't think so.</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>This is the only time they've ever done it, but it was posted about before when they still had only announced like 100th-70th posted.</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>You can tell IGN are definetly no Sega fans.</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Maybe it did, I don't know, I just couldn't get into the game, I bought it because of the Microprose label which I associated with Sid Meier's Civilization.</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>That took a long time to research those devices, though.</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>The only downside was that the battles were really slow sometimes, and you just wanted to get into the research part of the game.</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>A gaming site coming out with a "best games of all time" list is not a rare event.</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>So tell me, in their 8 year history when was the last time IGN listed the best game of all time list, and tell me why in hell you think they'll do another in a month or two?</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>If you think the game is that good, then perhaps I'll give it another chance, I've been wrong on first impressions before.</div>

[Stephen]

<div style='font: 10pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Entertainment Weekly beat them to the punch by a couple months. As did Electronic Gaming Monthly. And Next Generation. And Next Generation before that.</div>

[Stephen]

<div style='font: 10pt Arial; text-align: left; '>His point was that it's a tired and worn-out practice, inherently subjective and prone to change. Which it obviously is. I, personally, am waiting for Maxim's take.</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>By their nature these lists need to be revised every few years period</div>

[Gentz]

<div style='font: 11pt arial; text-align: left; '>Most of those are understandable. I've never played X-Com so I have no opinion there, but I'd put Resident Evil up there instead of Link to the Past.</div>

[M'k'n'zy]

<div style='font: 9pt "copperplate gothic light"; text-align: left; '>The original X-com was an incredible game that I still like to play through every now and then. Plus wasn't it one of the frist turn based strat games?</div>
