View Poll Results: Should the Video Game tournament be 32 or 64 games?
That list is way too back heavy IMO. Classic games are good for nostalgia but games like Double Dragon technically suck in many ways. Even a cheesy NES games like Goonies 2, Hogan's Alley, Duck Hunt were better. I think there are way too much props given to the old stuff. There is no ESPN NFL 2K5 or even NFL 2K, there isn't even one Star Wars game on the list. Where is Super Star Wars or Star Wars arcade? No Dance Dance Revolution? That might be the biggest arcade game ever.

I put that list together in all about 10 minutes. It is far from being complete.
Microsoft Flight Simulator X: Microsoft's flight sim series for twenty years has been the gold standard that all PC simulators are compared to, even professional pilots use it for practice. In terms of influence, it is probably in the top ten all time among PC video game franchises.
Knights of the Old Republic: Star Wars has a long history of being the subject of some very good games (along with some very not so good games), and KOTOR is arguably the best of the bunch.
MVP Baseball 2005: EA was just so far ahead of everybody else with their MVP series, its a shame that they can't make baseball games anymore. MVP Baseball 2005 was one of the most memorable sports games for the last generation console lineup.
Lastly, Mario is big and all, but having 10% of the games on the list is probably a bit much.
Are you taking into considerationg the multiplayer aspect of games or not? If so some i enjoyed were Crimson Skies, Unreal Tournament, Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Halo 2. Also I've got great college memories from playing and wagering (usually impaired) on Tiger Woods PGA Tour series.

KOTOR is one game that I definitely want to add. I played that game for about 15 hours, but I liked what I played. I can definitely see why people took to it. Flight simulator is another game that should get added somewhere.
Super Mario World is probably the only game that can get removed from the Mario list. Super Mario Bros, Mario 3, Mario 64, Mario Kart, and Super Mario Galaxy are all games worthy of the list IMO.

I'll consider those games. The only one that will probably make the list IMO is a Tiger game. I already have Halo and Halo 3, and most of those other games, there were others in the genre and time that were better IMO...
