Hmm...I don't really care about Tomb Raider, Bomberman, or Animal Crossing, which leaves me with:

Michael Corvin
1. Super Mario Galaxy (wii)
2. Rock Band 2 (Xbox 360)
3. Okami (PS2)
4. Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (xbox)
5. Mega Man II (NES)
6. Eternal Darkness (Gamecube)
8. The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (DS)
9. F-Zero (SNES)

vs.

Vryce
1. Call of Duty 4 (Xbox 360)
2. Legend of Zelda (NES)
3. Final Fantasy II (SNES)
4. Ico (PS2)
5. Shadow of the Colossus (PS2)
6. Resistance: Fall of Man (PS3)
7. Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (SNES)
8. Sonic the Hedgehog (Genesis)
10. Loco Roco (PSP)

For the Zelda games, the original beats Phantom Hourglass. For the Mario games, it's a tough call. I'd probably go with Galaxy over Yoshi's Island.

To boil it down to the games that I think really belong on a "best of" list, it comes down to:

Michael Corvin
1. Super Mario Galaxy (wii)
2. Rock Band 2 (Xbox 360)
5. Mega Man II (NES)
6. Eternal Darkness (Gamecube)

vs.

Vryce
2. Legend of Zelda (NES)
3. Final Fantasy II (SNES)
4. Ico (PS2)
5. Shadow of the Colossus (PS2)
7. Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (SNES)

It's a really, really tough call, but I'll go with Vryce.

I think I am going with Michael Corvin's list because my first name is Michael.

True, but it's not like he waited awhile (maybe to see how the voting was going) and changed his mind/post, he edited 2 minutes after the original post...

Oh well.. rules are rules... Damn you Fuzion...
