I could understand if this was just one persons opinions but its of all igns staff. Far to low if you ask me.

That was my though exactly. I had N64 and wave race was fun an all but nowhere near halo kinda fun. And dont even get me started with SSBM.

what do u guys think will be in the top 10?? i dont think mgs, splinter cell, GTA have been named, so maybe one of those, but imo, i think the starcraft will most definitely be in the top 10. also, according to their ratings, perfect dark and black & white will be in the top 10 most likely...

I think pac man is going to be somewhere up there. Final Fantasy 7 as well.

why would you care about anybody's opinion at all? everyone in the world could like a game but if I dont like it, then screw everyone in the world.

**Xbox Owner** · 05-06-2003

meh oh well

**# 1 Stunner** · 05-06-2003

whats # 1?

**kenji** · 05-06-2003

Why do people even look at ign? From what I hear, it is a fake site with people that suck at judgment.

**VenoM** · 05-06-2003

i bet zelda ocarnia of time gets 1st place or link to the past

For a long time I didnt care what peoples opinions were on videogames. I bought games based on hype and what seemed would be good. Well, this is a very expensive hobby. And I cant just go out and buy every game that looks good. So I have a couple of sites that seem to have the same views as I do and trust some reviews. I realize they arent always right but it helps me not buy a crap game.
