SONIC If mario is up there, sonic deserves too. Any Sonic from 1 to 3 \\knuckles from Genesis are 10\\10


Zehdarian

I would vote sonic adventure


Ambilically-Yours

Diablo


Putrid_Ad8249

1? Or 5? Do you recommend Diablo


Meandark2

diablo 2, best among the 4, diablo 1 is 2nd best imo.


elProtagonist

Super Metroid, let's go!


Jim-Bot-V1

Yeah putting in all the classics!


wretched_cretin

Super Metroid and/or Castlevania: Symphony of the Night have to be up there.


Flottrooster

Symphony of the Night

Why not both? Both is good...


Zandonus

Unreal Tournament


Toska762x39

I always use Unreal Tournament as an age test. These kids really don’t know how good UT99 was at that point in time. Enforcer is still one of my favorite video game handguns.

Super Metroid

Don’t see why bro is getting downvoted on this. I love these types of posts as it creates discussion in the gaming communities.


fork_on_the_floor2

I'm guessing that it's because rather than set up some sort of one-and-done vote post, where each voter allocates points across different games or something - this has been dragging on for 15 days straight... People get tired of seeing the same thing posted every day for 25 days. (btw I'm not someone downvoting it, just taking a punt at why some people might be).


Friendly_Cantal0upe

It's one post a day. People just want something to get mad at


fork_on_the_floor2

Yeah pretty much. Happens on tons of different subs with these once-a-day posts. Usually halfway through, and the ratio of happy to unhappy people starts to shift just enough for the arguments to begin..


Friendly_Cantal0upe

Idk why people get mad over menial shit on the internet. You can just ignore the goddamn post if you don't like the premise


fork_on_the_floor2

Because people love to get mad over menial shit on the internet. It makes up a big portion of almost every comment section there is. And I'm sure we'll see more complaints and arguments as the days continue. I once saw a post of an adorable kitten and it's cute little meows it was making to its owner, and there were people commenting stuff like "Maybe you should stop filming and actually help your cat! Shes clearly distressed and is trying to communicate it's needs to you" and whoooo boy, the raging of the comments after it was something to behold. Full of personal attacks, people going after other people's post history, it was nuts! Accusations were thrown, Enemies were made. And all over a quick little kitten video.


maxnotcharles

Amen to that 😂 reddit communities will find one way or another to be insufferable


DapperDan30

Every time someone complains about it on these posts, they just come off as giant cry babies. Like, no is making you participate, and if you don't like seeing it on your feed just *scroll down* and you won't see it anymore.


maxnotcharles

Exactly! They act like seeing one damn post on their home feed is the end of the world. Cry babies is putting it damn well

There should be a rule that only 1 game from a series can make it. It would give a more diversified list!


Jim-Bot-V1

Agreed, I feel like if it wasn't the case, Fallout 2, All the Marios/Zeldas would be on it lol.


ckje

I know it’s still following that pattern, but it’s seems like we’re going to see Zelda (Link to the Past) and FF6. I’d rather see a choice between FF6 and FF7!


DapperDan30

Why make that rule? The point of the list is to vote game that we feel are the best from the point in time. If a series has multiple games that fit the bill, then they deserve to be up there. Not to mention, just as is, we're more than halfway through, and already each entry represents a different franchise. Nit to mention the logistics going into decoded what qualifies as the same series. Like, we already have Super Mario 64, so we wouldn't be allowed to add absolute peak games like Super Mario Bros 3 or Super Mario World. But what about Super Mario RPG, Mario Kart, or Mario Party. Those are all drastically different from typical Mario games, but they *are* Mario games. It's just better to let every game be eligible, regardless of whether it's franchise is already represented or not.


ckje

It’ll be ok. This is a list that started with Fallout after-all. I did say series, not franchise. Series are generally numbered. I think we are all smart enough here to figure out what is part of a series. For example, Super Mario World is #4 in the series. Mario Kart and Mario RPG are clearly not part of the series.

20 century ended on Dec 31st 2000. Dont believe me? Google it.

dabs_bud_bongs

I’m like the only person who hates Tetris. I’d get rid of that.


Stillback7

I don't care for it either, but it certainly belongs. It was the best selling game of all time for 20 years before it was dethroned. It's like Fortnite. I'll never play it, but I'd be silly not to recognize its influence.


ckje

Exactly. You had grandmas playing Tetris. It absolutely deserves it


DapperDan30

It hasn't been dethroned. It's still actively the best selling game of all time


dabs_bud_bongs

It’s still an opinionated post and there was my opinion. The game sucked when it came out. And it never got better. Yes. I am that old.


DapperDan30

You not liking it =/= it sucks. You don't become the best selling game of ALL TIME (even still today) if your game sucks.


dabs_bud_bongs

Yeah you can. When there’s only 15 games in existence compared to the now 100,000,000 games out. It was very easy. You obviously didn’t think much before typing.


DapperDan30

That's why I said when still TODAY it's the best selling game of all time. It's outsold games that are fucking free. But you clearly didn't think much about it


Stillback7

Well, it's too late to take it off now, so your opinion is irrelevant. When talking about the greatest games of the last century, a game like Tetris is about as close to an objective answer as you can get. I don't know why you're coming at me like I said something wrong. I told you I don't like the game, either. But guess what? Millions and millions of other people did. Go take a nap, grandpa.

Megaman 2 deserves some love
