You beat me by seconds with Bioshock, so I one upped your PC comment and added the most popular PC game around.

An alternative could be, no more than 1 move per user per day. Just a suggestion but it would potentially keep people involved for longer.

There is a reason why some games are referred to as God of War clones. One of the best all around action games ever.

Re: Ranking the Top 10 Video Games Ever - A New Forum Game!
I can understand the motivation for a game like Doom which was awesome and innovative for it's time, but against a more modern shooter like HL2 or Halo, hmmm.. It comes back to whether it's a list of classic games or a list of great games that still hold up today. Currently a mix of the 2 I would suggest. I would admit, the interface of Baldur's Gate 2 is pretty clunky these days.

Meanwhile, I think uncharted is now the only slot that hasnt changed.

I agree a mix of the old and new would make sense. And I'd say Morrowind was a better RPG than BG2.

Re: Ranking the Top 10 Video Games Ever - A New Forum Game!
Ever is fine, but would I rather play Doom than HL2? No. But I might choose to play Doom instead of Haze, Timeshift, Turning Point, etc., so not to say that it isn't still a very playable game today. Baldur's Gate 2, I'm still having trouble finding the RPG that tops that. I thought it could be Dragon Age but that didn't quite work out. I understand your point about Morrowind but it is a very different beast from BG2, and I prefer a more fleshed out story driven experience as opposed to an open world.

i agree that doom is an important game in the evolution of FPS, however, in no way, shape, or form does it exceed HL2.

I still remember the first time I ever saw Gran Turismo. I hadn't heard a thing about it. I was in an electronic store in Japan in Feb 1998 (for the Winter Olympics). My jaw hit the floor. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Seems quaint now, but there was NOTHING like it in gaming at the time.

I played Super Mario World as much as anyone when it came out, but I do not get the obsession with Mario, or Zelda either for that matter when it comes to trying to force them into these lists. Yes, it is a fun game, but a GOAT? Why don't we add fucking Tetris to the list while we're at it...

9. Sim City (SNES)
10. Bioshock
Removed Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, Added Silent Hill 2. I guess I would have replaced Resident Evil but it seems to have already been removed.
Silent Hill is my favourite survival horror series and the second game is the pinnacle of that series. Resident Evil makes me jump occasionally but never creeps me out or makes me truly scared. The Silent Hill games ooze atmosphere and boast the best soundtracks of any games in the genre. True horror in gaming.
One move left. Losing Baldur's Gate 2 makes me sad
