Sonic is rubbish compared to Super Mario Brothers, which should be number 1, followed by Ocarina of Time, then GoldenEye, Tetris and Civilisation. | |

Ardeo said: Oh Mummy! (zx spectrum ) I had that! Came free with my +2. The best free game though was that Treasure Island one (I can't remember it's name though ). EDIT - it was called Treasure Island !!! The music on Oh Mummy! was great. [This message was edited Sat Dec 6 17:07:48 PST 2003 by 1p1p1i3] | |

My favorite game isn't on their.. Clocktower.. I LOVE that game!!!
GTA-Vice and The Sims are pretty cool too!! The day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom - Anais Nin

Is always thought the "Ms." in "Ms. Pac Man" implied she was a bit loose... | |

With a few exceptions (mainly Final Fantasy and some other RPG's) a lot of the newer games really don't impress me all that much. I like the older games more. When more emphasis was placed on how a game played, instead of how it looked. | |

Yes! Sonic the Hedgehog is the best game ever! I was 8 years old when I got it, and I was obsessed! I used to rush home from school with my friends and we all used to get into fights over who was going to play. We tried to take turns, but none of us wanted to share. | |

I can't believe Civ isn't on the list, nor is Sim City.
And SMW only 18?? Come on - should be top 5 easily. It's clearly a much better game than Sonic "Press right and watch me go" The Hedgehog. Obviously, lists like this are stoopid, but SMW pees all over Sonic. | |
