I’m sure most of you have seen way too many of these lists, but this one caught my eye because of the way they chose the games. This website has collected Top 10 lists from various magazines / websites dating all the way back to 1996 and ranked them based on the averages of the collected data.
For the rest of the list (which is about 155 games), check out their website and scroll to the bottom.
| Place | Name | Author | Year | Total Score | Average Rank | Percent Score |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time | Nintendo | 1998 | 308 | 2.7 | 9.93% |
| 2 | Super Mario 64 | Nintendo | 1996 | 201 | 4.3 | 6.48% |
| 3 | Tetris | Alexey Pajitnov | 1987 | 198 | 4.2 | 6.38% |
| 4 | Final Fantasy VII | Squaresoft | 1997 | 135 | 3.9 | 4.35% |
| 5 | Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past | Nintendo | 1992 | 113 | 5.4 | 3.64% |
| 6 | GoldenEye 007 | Rare | 1997 | 103 | 6.3 | 3.32% |
| 7 | Super Mario Bros. | Nintendo | 1985 | 94 | 3.2 | 3.03% |
| 8 | Half-Life 2 | Valve | 2004 | 84 | 5.0 | 2.71% |
| 9 | DOOM | id / GT Interactive | 1993 | 81 | 4.8 | 2.61% |
| 10 | Super Mario World | Nintendo | 1991 | 77 | 5.9 | 2.48% |
I think this is a fairly solid list, although I wouldn’t put GoldenEye in the top 10. Obviously there is no definitive list: Everyone’s top 10 is going to be different.
