IGN Readers choose 99 greatest games

And what a farce it is. Half the games have seemingly come out in the past month. It's all based on reader reviews on their site, and if you've read even a handful of those, it's not that difficult to figure out most people there don't have a clue what they're talking about.

I've always liked gamespot better. And there is no way in the earth that Resident Evil 4 is the best game.

That's a load of crap.

Ahem.

A lot of that list is a load, though RE4 is one of the best games ever made. The best? No, but not far from it. My fave game of all time (Samurai Shodown II) isn't even included. Any list that fails to include Tetris in the top 3 shouldn't even be considerd a list either.

The way they calculated all of this is ridiculous too.

Ben:

Well. I take it back then. I haven't played the game, but I briefly look at it at the video shop once.

I disagree with the whole assign-a-game-to-a-monkey-and-make-them-fight-to-determine-the-winner as well.

;)
