nice. i would have switched some things around moving down the list, but the top 10 is solid.
[Dec 17,2009 4:33pm - arilliusbm ""]
Horrible order.
[Dec 17,2009 4:34pm - arilliusbm ""]
Deus Ex is not the greatest pc game ever. it's no wonder why I switched to pc games/pc accelerator when pc gamer started to suck. I still have all their old mags and demo discs.
[Dec 17,2009 4:38pm - arilliusbm ""]
How dare they put hl2 and tf2 above halflife. What a joke. They'll be getting an angry letter to the editor.
[Dec 17,2009 4:46pm - arilliusbm ""]
This list is a disgrace
[Dec 17,2009 4:50pm - arilliusbm ""]
absolute garbage. This site needs to be hacked
[Dec 17,2009 4:51pm - arilliusbm ""]
this is the worst order of games in the history of ordering games
[Dec 17,2009 4:53pm - arilliusbm ""]
system shock 2 in the top 20 is the only positive thing so far.
everytime I click the next list, I'm shaking my head. This is pure shit

this list has to be the biggest disgrace in pc gaming history

thanks for ruining the holidays for me, ark.

LOL, Deus Ex doesn't even run on your machine...you're arrested

i'm still LOLing at the conversation with yourself

I was replaying it a few months ago. it sure does.
[Dec 17,2009 5:10pm - ark ""]
on your VOODOO3?
i do want to get into a scholarly argument about how HL2 and TF2 are better but since i just got home, i'm gonna smoke a bowl and fire up TF2 and see how long i can keep my window open before my snot freezes to my face
[Dec 17,2009 5:44pm - arilliusbm ""]
I've got a geforce2 mx 64 mb.
Hl2 ain't in the top 20 on my list

why the fuck is TF2 on there? that shit is an abomination to all compettitive gamerrs out there.

This thread put me into a deep depression.
[Dec 18,2009 12:39am - trioxin245 ""]
that list is dogshit. i wouldnt put a single one of those in the top 10. fallout 2 would be on my list, but not 3
edit: actually half life definitly deserves it

explain - is it the critical hits and medics?
either way the game is as competitive as i want to get, i don't need more twitchy douchebags yelling in their mics.

smart man, that's probably the only part of this list that isn't debatable.

1. Deus Ex (good game, but deserves to be on the list much lower.)
2. Half-Life 2 (give me a break. This game was overhyped. The source engine was talked about for years, yet when doom III came out, it had more fluid gameplay)
3. Team Fortress 2 (what are you smoking crack?)
4. Half-Life (deserves to be 1-3)
5. Rome: Total War (Rome: total garbage. out of all the games like this they pick this one? Fuck that)
6. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (morrowind and daggerfall were better. this game rehashed old ideas and made them better looking. it had ridiculous exploits too - the worst being baiting that lady of the cave, making her run into the lake to drown, and stealing her armor which happens to be one of the best in the game)
7. Fallout (meeeh. top 30, not top 10)
8. Planescape: Torment (yea ok. give me a fucking break)
9. Thief II: The Metal Age (move this shit down to 50 and call it a day)
10. Fallout 3 (your arrested)
[Dec 18,2009 9:22am - arktouros ""]
ok here's mine, i'm stringing some series together, and NOT thinking to hard about it -
1. Half-Life 2, mods
2. Half-Life, mods
3. Starcraft
4. Deus Ex
5. Baldur's Gate 2
6. Fallout series
7. System Shock 2
8. Quake series
9. Unreal series
10. Team Fortress 2
(no love for adventure games in my top 10 i guess)
i agree with you on everything else except Planescape: Torment, Thief 2 and Fallout 3, those would be high up.
[Dec 18,2009 9:26am - spaldino ""]
1. SCI FI FPS
2. WWII FPS
3. MEDIEVAL FPS
4. MODERN DAY FPS
5. HORROR SCI FI FPS
6. FPS
7. FPS
8. WWII FPS
9. SCI FI FPS

he's really not though, remember he's never serious on RTTP...
[Dec 18,2009 9:37am - arilliusbm ""]
yea I could really care less about this list in all honesty.
[Dec 18,2009 9:39am - arilliusbm ""]
however that being said, I do disagree with about 99% of it. But that's all good, everyone has their opinions.
[Dec 18,2009 9:40am - arktouros ""]
i don't care what PC Gamer thinks the top 100 games are either, my point in posting this was PC gaming was great back in the day and there's nothing wrong with it today imo.
mostly posted to spite you though, especially since they put TF2 in 3rd place!
[Dec 18,2009 9:42am - arktouros ""]
and you don't have to get smiley with me, mister.
[Dec 18,2009 9:47am - arilliusbm ""]
no, thanks for posting it. It was a great laugh. I can't believe they (and you) hold hl2 in high regard. that was a major disappointment, except near the end.
I only believe that though because I loves how the majority of hl1 was underground in a base. I think hl2 was mostly just a shoddy followup that showed off the new source engine. The game would have been a lot better if it had more indoor action. not sure why, but I prefer my fps games in closed environments, usually.

10. Unreal / Unreal Tournament and mods
Honorable mention : Wizardry 8, Max Payne, Deus Ex, Doom 1, Ultima Online, Warcraft Series, Call of Duty 4, Counterstrike, TF2, Baldurs Gate 1+2 .... im sure there is a ton more i'm forgetting

i need to converse with you more often. thats a good list and excellent honorable mentions with the exception of TF2(i'll always be a HL1 mod fan over HL2 mods even though I play both)
[Dec 18,2009 10:17am - SLAG NLI HELP ME ""]
I just very recently got sucked into TF2. While I feel it takes a bit less skill than say .. counterstrike... (and keep in mind, i somehow avoided TF1) .. its polished as hell and valve really has something going with the personalities that each class has, extra weapons (i.e more strategies) and the sense of community that the game has with it. I don't feel terrible or mind numb everytime I play TF2. Imo, it's a great game.
[Dec 18,2009 10:21am - arilliusbm ""]
Was age of wonders on the list!?!?
That would be my top.

Its a fun game definitely. I just hate the community. Everywhere its all about getting the highest individual points and/or getting the stupid hats. I hear more mic chatter about those god damn hats that do nothing than I do actual strat calls hahaha. Beyond that the game is playable albeit easily. Thats another gripe I have with the source mods compared to the HL1 mods is the fact that the source games are waaaay easier to be good at than the HL1 mods. They went from easily to learn but hard as fuck to master with TFC/cs 1.6 to even EASIER to learn and easy to master with TF2/CS:S/DoD:S virtually eliminating the skill gap.
The latter gripe is kind of bias as the every day player probably doesn't give two shits about competitive play. Thats just what I enjoy out of my FPS. Yea pubbing is hella fun but I get more enjoyment in 5v5 scrims and matches, coming up with strats and using them to win.

forgot about KOTOR 1+2, Sam and Max (OG) and Day of the Tentacle (almost any lucasarts game in the early and middle 90's), Thief 1 (it was really the first sneak around game I played and had loads of atmosphere), Crusader : No remorse
[Dec 18,2009 10:37am - arilliusbm ""]
Props for Lucas arts in the mid 90s. The dig, what I just mentioned is one of those.
