ok this has been mentioned and criticized many times about the top 100 list of all times, but is there and actual list of games on a site that i can kinda go off of???

i know my own but want others opinions, not just mine! they should have a polling on here for klovers since they have a ton of members(unless i totally miss some page with this already)! please let me know if i did so.....

it's been talked before and i totally agree the the top 100 games, as we all know, are just a list of the them in order of timing, not the most rememberable, popular, fun, profitable, etc..!!!

the top 10 most popular games is great, but would like to see a top 100 myself........anyone else???? maybe even more on "what most men like" and "what women most like"!!! i also think that this should be just classics from Pong on to maybe 1990??? don't really consider SFII classic, but i am getting old, LOL.

there's a ton of collectors with knowledge about arcades here so let's put our list on polling to be an accurate count and not me saying that "Dragon Spirit" was the best game ever!!! LOL

seriously i would like to do this if possible....
 
google is your friend... you will see that top 100 game lists will vary greatly from generation to generation. All my top 100 would be games between say '75 and '85. You're not gonna see one 90's game on my list...;)
 
The top 100 list seems to be very artificially constructed to smoothly go from Computer Space right up until the minute the list was made 12 years ago, then they tossed on Ridge Racer V to make it 101 and then stopped updating it.

To me it seems to be a list made by one or two people. Once you get past the classic era a lot of the game choices are downright strange.

Examples.

Captain America makes the list, but the Simpsons and TMNT don't.
Street Fighter makes the list, while Street Fighter 2 does not.
King of Monsters makes the list as the only Neo Geo title on it. Not even sure if that would make a top 25 neo geo list. (Edit, apparently they did a top 100 Neo Geo survey on a Neo geo message board, and this title didn't make it).
Golden Tee Golf. Another worst title in the series example.

i have googled and all the ones i've seen are just dated!!! i don't mean like that!

i wanna have a list like the top 10 most popular classic games list on KLOV but with 100! we can put dates after but would like to see them in order of popularity, fun, etc.....

can care less really about the date it came out but do want a classic game list only like someone said, 72-89 or something is classic to me! but pong is not number one....prob ms pac im guessing!

I'm typically not into debating "Top X" lists (but I'll debate a lot of other stupid shit online ;P), but that example is a huge flaw. Anything from the late 80's and early 90's gets the nod over SF2? PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFffffffffffffffffffffffffttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!

Of course the top 10 from KLOV readers wouldn't list it. Bunch of old ass men and their old ass 1 to 3 button single player games. >;)

Ok, so I guess there isn't a long list like this then. if the moderators here or whoever is in charge of those list doesn't want or can't have poll type thing like ipdb.org in the pinball world has then maybe someone wants to do this on their site? One of you clever internet guys would like to participate???
