3. = 12 points
4. = 10 points
5. = 8 points
6. = 6 points
7. = 4 points
8. = 3 points
9. = 2 points
10. = 1 point

My choices:
1. Championship Manager 97/98 - PC
2. Pro Evolution Soccer - PS2
3. Shining Force 2 - Megadrive/Genesis
4. Final Fantasy 7 - PSX
5. Diablo 2 - PC
6. Civilisation 3 - PC
7. Sensible World of Soccer - PC
8. SoulBlade - PSX
9. Half-Life - PC
10. Super Mario Kart - SNES
This isn't entirely consistent with what I posted in the other thread, but never mind.
Hmmm ... soccer games and RPG's seem to overwhelm my list. The top 5 all fit into those catergories.
These games are over a fair spread of systems, though, and cover many years of gaming.
I thought about putting a few Spectrum or Atari ST games on there, but decided not to. If pushed to expand the list to my top 20 games ( ) then the second set of ten would be dominated by those ancient games.
Note that these are my favourite games, not necessarily the best games I've played.
ChampMan 01/02 is much better than 97/98, but I had much more fun with 97/98, for instance. A similar comparison can be made between Final Fantasy 7 and 10 and Pro Evolution Soccer 1 and 2.

ADG: why is Civ3 at the top of the list if it only has 12 points? is it because it has received more than 1 vote?

OMG! I'd forgotten about that game! It rocked! Still have a copy of it for the NES... I don't know how long it took me to find it either... I'd had it on my Comadore 64, but wanted it on something that still worked.

Take a look at Space HoRSE, it is supposedly a M.U.L.E. lookalike.
Originally I had the game for the Atari 800, which was more fun than on the C-64, because you could have all four human players using joysticks.

Thanks! Yeah, that's the reason I got it on the NES when I could since they have that four-player adapter thing...

Even a top 10 won't cut it! It's difficult to choose a tope ten especially after 20 years of gaming. Where do you start? Pac-Man, Donkey Kong and Invaderswere great games and deserve to be on top but a lot of you are way too young to remember how it was to sneak in arcades and be fascinated by the coin maschines. I remember myself playing by the hours at some point in the mid 80's.
Here is my list:
1. Civ 1
2. Civ 2
3. Civ3
4. Railroad Tyconn 2
5. Baldur's Gate
6. Baldur's Gate 2
7. Donkey Kong (original arcade game)
8. Doom
9. Comman & Conquer
10. Goldeneye (N64)
and here some more favorites
11. Colonization
12. Age of Empires
13. Gabriel Knight
14. Indiana Jones and the fate of Atlantis
15. Duke Nuke 'em
16. King's Quest
17. Defender of the Crown (Amiga)
18. Populus
19. Lemmings 2
20. Arkanoid
and the list goes on and on... ... we should have done a top 100 of all times if somebody is really willing to do the stats on that and a series should count as one game.
You can count the first ten of the list of course!
So long...
