(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); OK. I thought this would be fun, I'm going to make a top 100 list of the greatest games of all time however I'm not going to pick the games, you guys are. I'm going to leave this thread open for the rest of February and on March 1st I'll count up all the votes and compile a list of the greatest games of all time as voted for by NGU's members.

Here's how I'm going to work this out. Everyone who posts can give their top 10 games. They will recieve points depending on where they appear. Positions 10, 9, 8 7 and 6 will all get 1 point each, (so the order isn't too important), number 5 will get 2 points, number 4 will get 3 points, number 3 will get 4 points, number 2 will get 6 points and number 1 will get 8 points.

Naturally this means the games you put as your 1st and 2nd will matter a lot more. It's kinda similar to how the Eurovision Song Contest is scored. Hopefully it'll give us some close competition. Remember to include all games, I know this site is heavily focused on Call Of Duty, but don't think you have to put it high on the list just because others will, your lists are your opinion so if you want it to have Farmville, The Sims, and Barbie Horse Adventure on it, you can... people who don't want to post their lists publically can PM them to me, and I will add them on as well, if you'd like to keep your votes private.

There are however rules. We don't want people skewing the results with silly posts or thoughtless lists after all. So here are the rules:

1. Only one game per franchise unless they're notably different genres.
We don't need someone giving us a list with 6 Zelda games on it, or a list of nothing but Call Of Duty. However if the game is completely different that's OK. For example; 'Super Mario Bros', 'Mario Kart 64', and 'Super Mario Galaxy 2' could all go on the same list because they're all different genres, but 'Super Mario World' and 'New Super Mario Bros. Wii' cannot because they're both 2D platformers.

2. You must give the name and the console(s) the game is on, numbered correctly.
This is to make sure people spend just a minute thinking about the games on the list and don't just list the last 10 games they got for the PS3. My list is at the end of the post to give you an example.

3. You cannot vote for compilation games unless the game was first released that way.
So you could vote for 'The Orange Box' but you can't vote for 'Sonic Gems Collection'. If someone votes for games that where originally part of a compilation when first released (so for example if someone votes for 'Portal' or 'Half-Life 2' it will count as a vote for the compilation it originally came in (in this case, 'The Orange Box'.

I think that's everything. I look forward to seeing what everyone puts as their top 10. Here's mine...

------------------------------

10. Civilization IV (PC) - 1 point
9. Burnout 3: Takedown (PS2/Xbox) - 1 point
8. Fallout 3 (PC) - 1 point
7. Shadow Of The Colossus (PS2) - 1 point
6. Castlevania: Lords Of Shadow (PS3/360) - 1 point
5. Sonic The Hedgehog 2 (Mega Drive) - 2 points
4. EVE Online (PC) - 3 points
3. Lost Odyssey (360) - 4 points
2. Mass Effect (360) - 6 points
1. Final Fantasy 8 (PSOne) - 8 points

------------------------------

So those are my choices, everyone add your own and feel free to comment on mine or discuss eachothers choices... after all it is a discussion forum. Let's see if we get anything unusual in the list.

Chip's Challenge was so addicting. I had the first 75 or so levels memorized.

10. Just Cause 2 (Multi)
9. Pokemon Emerald (GBA)
8. Nintendogs (DS)
7. Rattler Race (PC)
6.Empire Earth (PC)
5. Crash Bash (PS1)
4. SOCOM 2 (PS2)
3. Lego Island (PC)
2. Crash Team Racing (PS1)
1. Warhawk (PS30

Glad to see people taking part in the list. I hope this get a decent level of responses so we have a good average of the members here. Remember though, only one game per franchise. Some people have voted for more than one CoD game for example, in these cases only the highest scoring game will count (if people want to edit their lists by all means). After all if we didn't have that rule there would have been 4 Final Fantasy games in my top 10.

i still play it on my iphone . best game ever. i have the original floppy disc that it came in xD

I read the rules and I understand you can't vote for 2 game from the same series but Spyro 2 and 3 are both extremely good games both deserve to be put in the top 100.

Ok, I've added in Pimp Masters and Lux_R's votes in, here are the top 10 so far. Anyone who's not voted, go ahead and vote so we get the most well rounded list representing the most members.

1st -- Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare -- 45 points
2nd -- Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas -- 30 points
3rd -- Final Fantasy VIII -- 16 points
4th -- Grand Theft Auto IV -- 15 points
5th -- Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 -- 14 points
6th -- 007 GoldenEye -- 13 points
7th (Joint) -- Fallout 3/Pokémon Red/Blue/Yellow - 12 points
9th (Joint) -- Red Dead Redeption/The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim -- 10 points

A you can see Call Of Duty 4 and GTA: San Andreas are clear favourites on this forum but 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th 7th place all have only 1 point in it so it's still all up for grabs.

10, Super Mario Bro's Partners in Time ( Ds ) Ds FTW

Yeah, erm, it's a points system... if you don't specify which game in the series get's the points I can't add them on.
