IN the haven't received or have?

My list is in now, Flik. Just sent it.

[chaosrage 0]

Haven't. I should probably start on it one of these days.

[Renegade 0]

Just like to announce I have the following people's lists:

 

Anya

Special K

Askwineverse

Budapist

CronoT

Jer

wildpegasus

Highland

JebusNassedar

 

I'm missing three people's lists, one of them being some lazy jerk known as "Flik". That lazy bastard, I'll kill him. Such a slowbie. The other two are AndrewTS and Matt Young.

You forgot me.

Uh you forgot me, needed to redo list since computer crashed but will be done by saturday.

[AndrewTS 0]

Didn't Mike submit his list? Or is it out because of the banning?

 

If you got it, why not put it up? I'd be interesting to see.

[Lightning Flik 0]

Hmph... Well, I guess I will, but later.

 

Anyways, only waiting on chaosrage and myself.

[Matt Young 0]

Matt *in Navi the fairy voice*: "Hey!"

 

*Flik looks around, confuzzled*

 

Matt: "Listen!"

 

*Flik presses yellow C button*

 

Matt: "I couldn't think of any funny Zelda related comment to end with, but you don't have my list yet either. I'm almost satisfied with it, though."

[Special K 0]

I think my #3's going to get a lot of shit.

[{''({o..o})''} 0]

I think it's a bigger thing to get on the list than to get a certain spot. Because I know we'll all disagree with everybody else's.

[Renegade 0]

Anyways, only waiting on chaosrage and myself.

*Waves hands in the air jumping*

[Special K 0]

Slackers.

[AndrewTS 0]

Glad I'm finished. I spent most of yesterday gaming, playing Def Jam Vendetta, Metroid Prime, Tales of Symphonia, and Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness.

[Lightning Flik 0]

Matt: "I couldn't think of any funny Zelda related comment to end with, but you don't have my list yet either.  I'm almost satisfied with it, though."

Soka, soka.

 

Anyways, only waiting on chaosrage and myself.

*Waves hands in the air jumping*

Get on it then, baka~!

 

Slackers.

Meh, mine should be done sometime tonight. Now that I remembered "oh yeah, I'm not done this, am I?"

 

So it'll get done. Eventually.

[Guest wildpegasus]

When are the results going to be posted? I'm looking forward to it.

[Lightning Flik 0]

When are the results going to be posted? I'm looking forward to it.

There's going to be an AIM chat this SUNDAY, MAY 15TH, 7PM EST where I'll announce the final rankings. Everyone who was a panelist (or those who can make it) please attend.

 

Please note that I'll need the last lists by tomorrow to make my deadline.

 

Although, Mike's list will be posted here on Saturday (here) so that everyone can see what some of the lists that were submitted were like. His list will not be included in the final making of the list.

 

BTW, the person who I'll be sending my list to, confirm it, will be notified of who they are after I get home from school today.

[Special K 0]

Can't attend. Sad. You'll post all the lists in this thread, right?

[Lightning Flik 0]

Can't attend. Sad. You'll post all the lists in this thread, right?

We'll see. Might make a new thread, might actually get off my ass, write it up in a nice format and submit it to Tom (or is he God now, whatever) and see if we can't get it up on the main page!

[Guest wildpegasus]

Can't attend. Sad. You'll post all the lists in this thread, right?

Here's my List. I noticed I left a couple out after making it though.

 

 

 

#1 -- Mike Tyson's Punchout NES -- This is the game I find you can always go back and play over and over again. The gameplay is tremenously addicting, it may be the top game ever for people of my age reminicing about the good old days. The graphics still look great today and the charactors are all memoarable. Not my favourite game ever but one of them

 

 

#2 -- Ninja Gaiden NES -- It brought us cinema scenes and less hair on our head because we were always pulling it out. The controls are excellent, the story is cooler than ice and the whole game is just one big adrenaline ride. It was beautiful how the cineam scenes in this game gave you the inspiration to get through the thing. And of course they had the boss after boss after boss thing at the end which I always love.

 

 

#3 -- Resident Evil Playstation -- The first game to bring fear into everyone's hearts this is the game that really got the Playstation on a roll. Screw what everyone else thinks. The controls add fear to the game. Just a whole new experience. Nobody ever forgets the dogs breaking through the windows.

 

 

#4Super Mario Kart SNES -- Even girlfriends and wives who nag their boyfriends and husbands about video games love this game. For that alone this game makes it up this far. The 2 player combat was terrific. 1 player was sweet as well

 

#5 -- Ms Pac Man Atari 2600 -- I know Pac Man caused coin shortages. I don't know if Ms Pac Man did but I say it's the better game so it gets this posistion. Still addicting to this day. I love it.

 

 

#6 -- Zelda (original) NES -- A game responsable for bringing alduts to the NES. Fantastic although frustrating at times this was the beginning of the famous series.

 

#7 -- Zelda The Orican of Time N64 -- Zelda in 3D which still has the spirit of the 2D games. What more do you want?

 

 

#8 -- Zelda II The Adventures of Link NES -- A great adventure which I feel is underrated in the Zelda universe.

 

#9 -- Super Mario Brothers NES -- HOw could this not be here? Everybody played this and it's still a great game today. One of the most famous games ever and one of the first games to wow us for the NES. A new generation of games was here.

 

#10 -- Tetris NES -- The most famous puzzle game ever which doesn't take any time at all in learning how to play. Extreamly addicting.

 

#11 -- Resident Evil II Playstation -- I love it. Yeah, that's my reason

 

#12 Super Smash TV SNES -- Great 2 player game though I had just as much fun on one player with it. Tremendous graphics and a great game for learning how to use the SNES controller. Instense as anything and it never lets up. Just plain old fun.

 

#13 -- Contra III SNES -- I feel this is perhaps the best of the series. You're climbing up walls with gun in one hand and holding on with the other while you have Predator like music coming out from your SNES. You jump you shoot and you annihilate. This is what videogames are meant to be. You beat the game on hard and you get more even fun. I love it.

 

 

#14 -- Chrono Trigger SNES -- Cherish the music score. I play RPGs with the lowest levels possable and this was one of the games that gave me the funnest challenge while doing that.

 

#15 -- Final Fantasy IV SNES -- Blew me away more than any other RPG ever has. The music is the best.

 

#16 -- Metal Gear Solid Playstation -- It earned its hype coming in. Full of cool new stuff and it's one of those games that you can tell the creators put a lot of effort into. Everything was perfect especially Mei Ling's voice

 

#17 -- Bionic Commando NES -- Could be off here but I'm just going completely by memory here with myself, my brother and my aunt's boyfriend all really enjoying this. An instinct pick to a degree

 

#18 -- Resident Evil Code Vericona Dreamcast -- It kind of got me back into video games.

 

#19 -- Mystical Ninja starring Goemon N64 -- Loved the sense of adventure, the wacked out humour and the soundtrack. Just fun, fun, fun, fun.

 

#20 -- Double Dragon II NES -- 2 player mode was great. I'm a mark for going from area to area and just beating punks up. Just like Dukes of Hazzard Billy and Jimmy are true men.

 

#21 -- Super Mario Brothers III NES -- A tremendous piece of work

 

#22 -- Double Dragon NES -- I just love the scenery, going from place to place and beating thugs up. Seeing how long I can last each time I play.

 

#23 -- Battletoads NES -- Kind of like Metal Gear Solid -- Lots of imagination and lots of different things to do. Fun and challenging all the way

 

#24 --- Contra NES -- The first of the series so I'll put it here. It's great for a lot of the same reasons COntra III is great. Plus it's one of the best known games for the Konami code.

 

#24 Final Fantasy NES -- Along with Dragon Warrior responsable for starting the RPG craze

 

#25 Super Castlevania IV SNES --Ghrapics, gameplay, medusa heads, it's all here.

 

#26 Xenogears Playstation -- It made me think and the charactors I liked especially Elly. Tremendous adventure and I love redheads.

 

#27 Teenage Mutant NInja Turtles NES -- Everyone always seems to talk about this game and I remember it fondly so I'm putting it here

 

#28 Final Fight SNES -- They had a wrestler charactor when wrestling wasn't cool. They showed breast cleavage. The main villan at the end goes out the window just like the guy on the starting of Kung Fu The Legend Continues. The best of the beat'em ups after the NES days.

 

#29 Pong Atari 2600 -- Because it's largely responsable for getting video games off of the groun

 

#30 -- Metroid NES -- Even though I haven't played it I am going by what I know and other's opinions plus influence on the gaming industry

Why list a game you haven't played?

[chaosrage 0]

That's a beautiful list, Wild. Xenogears, 3 REs, original Zelda over Ocarina, Final Fantasy 4 over every Final Fantasy. If I can't make a list, I want yours to count twice.

 

I had to work 14 hours the past three days and got home at 4 in the morning each day. So I'm really not in the mood to make up a list and write a lot. I might try to put something together anyway.

 

Can't be there Sunday at 7 either. Working.

[Matt Young 0]

I could be wrong, but I don't think we're supposed to discuss these publicly yet. That's why he included spoiler tags. Then again, anyone could read his list and mention its contents anyway, so I don't know anymore.

 

Anyway, I have my list finished.

Flik wanted it kept secret, so I'd say WP screwed that up..

 

But if it spares us from chaosrage having to make a list, so be it.

[Lightning Flik 0]

Urk... *rubbing temples with eyes closed* ...go to your happy spot, Dorian. Nodoka fanservice, Nodoka fanservice... That's right. Don't think about the idiot who posted their stuff when I specifically said not to, just the Nodoka fanservice, even if I said I wanted to keep it a secret, Nodoka fanservice...

 

*stops takes a deep breath*

 

Wiredu Pegasu no BAKA!!!

 

*absolutely seething, but concentrating on getting his list finalized*

[Special K 0]

Battletoads: just like Metal Gear Solid.

 

PHHHHBwahaha.

 

And seriously, should you make a list when you seem to have played 30 games in your life total?

[chaosrage 0]

If he only played 30 games, somehow he managed to play 20 of the best ones.

[AndrewTS 0]

Battletoads: just like Metal Gear Solid.

 

PHHHHBwahaha.

That's no worse than Viewtiful Joe being "an updated Ghosts n' Goblins."

[Guest wildpegasus]

PHHHHBwahaha.

I've easily played over a 1000 games. Easily.

 

 

 

Battletoads = Metal Gear because

 

 

both were hyped to the moon long before they came out

 

 

both used their imagination and had you doing various things throughout the game to keep your interest peaked. Both games stood out on their respective systems because of this.

Glad to see you enjoy the picks.

 

 

 

 

 

BTW, I didn't realise I was supposed to keep my list secret for the time being. I've been busy and have had an awful lot on my mind lately.

[Guest Askewniverse]

I don't see how WP could list a game he hasn't played. That kind of thing pretty much kills the credibility of a list. The game in question is certainly good enough to warrant a spot on people's lists, but not if they haven't played it.

Dude, a lot of games are hyped before they come out.

Granted, I haven't played the NES Battletoads game in some time, but wasn't it basically a beat 'em up with a few vehicle stages thrown in? Not exactly MGS there.

I've seen Metroid being played enough to get enough of a taste of it.

Yeah, that's true but these games were really hyped as something special way, way before they even came out. Hyped in the same manner for the same reasons and both were not games that were living off of past glory. For all intents and purposes they were new franchises. Yes, Metal Gear had games before in their series but they were a not big name game especially by the time the PS MGS rolled out.

 

 

No, Battletoads beat'em up part of the game is actually not a focus of the game. At times it's more of a breather until you get to the harder stuff. With the bosses sometimes the beat'em part is a focus.

 

 

On top of that you had great platform jumping, various vehicle stages as you mentioned which were all different than each other (with the last one being very innovative), a puzzle snake level and a race with a rat down several floors to see who could reach the bomb first. All which made the game feel like various different games inside of 1 game.

 

 

Kind of the same deal with MGS. They made you feel like you were playing more than 1 game.
