Sorry for the nitpickage, but .. I guess that's what we do on forums.

Hah, there's a few people I know who referered to the Genesis as "The Sega".

I remember when the AVGN dissed Mischief Makers in one of his intros and the fans of that game went batsh*t insane.

He later claimed that he only did it as a joke because he wanted to see how people would react to seeing him knock a good game, though I don't know if everyone buys that.

DON'T F*CK WITH MISCHIEF MAKERS!

Anteater's had the best list yet...until now:

1.The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time(N64)
2.Phantasy Star Online(GC)
3.Halo 2(XBOX)
4.Sonic Adventure 2: Battle(GC)
5.Fable(XBOX)
6.Banjo Kazooie(N64)
7.Kingdom Hearts(PS2)
8.Star Wars Battlefront 2(XBOX)
9.Rock Band 2(PS3)
10.Super Mario RPG(SNES)

Ha, pretty err...unique list. I might add those nifty description things later.
This is also coming from someone who is still in the process of playing some legendary old-school(mostly SNES) games, so I'm sure the list will change a lot.

Agree. I think mostly it's just nostalgia value, but it seems like nothing will ever match these childhood classics.

make an excel sheet and start with the first list in this thread. first cell gets the name next gets the score. and on and on.

once every list is entered select both columns and sort according to the list by names.

at that point just add up the total scores for each title in another column then sort again by that new value.

^That's how I did it when I set up a hottest woman tourney on another site. Ranked the top 64 in excel, and used it to set up a bracket. We aren't doing bracket style, but excel is the way to go.

Just wanted to say, thank you.

I am, but I have to say the level of dialogue is slightly tedious as well .. Good RPG does not equal lengthy dialogue in my opinion, but we'll see. On the whole, I'm sure I'll love it, but it's been a minor annoyance so far.

Usually complex stories get in the way when it comes to games but RPG's are an exception, that's a genre based entirely around storytelling so if I'm not digging the story, I probably won't dig the RPG.

Pokemon is the big exception to this rule, not only is it the only RPG series that dosen't put any emphasis on big plots, backstories or character development, it's the only one that can get away with recycling the same goal and premise over and over and over again for over a decade, and still make enough money to buy the entire continent of Africa.

You gotta love Nintendo.
