I never know what to post in these threads because there are so many games I really love but for totally different reasons. Its hard to rank them side by side.

Paint Crop Pro: Mar 22, 2007; Find someone who values you like Rick Spielman values 7th round picks.

DOOM - 1993
Final Fantasy VII
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Grand Theft Auto 3
Street Fighter
Half Life
Starcraft 2
World of Warcraft
Goldeneye
Mario 64

I was thinking about something similar with the new DOOM that was released on Friday. Tried to go with a "Most Important Videogames" Granted I've played a lot of FPS in my day so my list tends to skew towards that. Also there are 11 games but meh.

I had it on PC. I was able to make my own levels with the game, so I would make custom courses entirely out of water. Since the entire course was a water hazard, you had to have the ball land directly into the hole (it couldn't touch the 'ground' between the ball's current position and the hole.)
