[Doom3_]

"KOTOR must find KOTOR" (Bloodshot eyes)

[Doom3_]

Wow i'm really surprised about that list, how about the doom series!

[thrAsher]

Goes to show how much both those enterprises blow hairy goat.

That list is garbage. Where is Starcraft, Doom/Quake, Civ....

[mdooz]

Starcraft and Half Life are nowhere to be seen.

[Cryogenic Pyro]

I see KOTOR nowhere. I also see the Sims on there, I mean, everyone I know who played the game. Played it for maybe a couple days and it was then tossed in the garbage. I also do not see Doom or Quake.

EDIT: Doh, forgot about Half-Life.

You can bet there will be some that will go:

"What???? No Dig Dug??? No Atari games???"

I am in total agreement with the list. However, I think that maybe a certain game at number 2 starring a certain guy named Master Chief should have been number 1.

I love lists like this...it sounds so official...lol

[Fanboy5000]

Wow, Halo over the entire Mario Series... I don't know if I would have done that one. It is cool for Halo though.


Zelda's on top at least, and that makes sence.

[bretman1234]

Its games of the Millenium, so they have to have come out after 2000, right? Maybe thats why there is no like Half-Life or Quake. Or did those come out after 2000? Im confused!

14-Gran Turismo 3 A-Spec
13-NBA Street (Series)
12-WWE Smackdown!/Def Jam Vendetta(Series)
11-Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell

Ahh yes, Civilization II, IMHO the best game of all time.

Dang, I keep forgetting that the millenium started over in 2001, but that's not really reflected in their list. The best part of the Zelda series came in the last millenium. So I guess the question is: who's stupider: me or EGMandMTV? That's a tough one.

[MerimacHamwich]

Morrowind isn't on there. The list is retarded, Morrowind should be top 10 at LEAST. Also, what about Deus Ex 2? Soooo many better games.

[RagunCajun]

kinda odd how they picked games. They said 15 games, yet they pick an entire series which consist of many games. IMO, they should of done a series and a individual contest or something.

[No Fear 23]

mtv and egm are retards. i think ign and gamespot should team up and pick it out or better yet, have ppl to vote through a poll

[nutsnyomowf]

What about the Unreal series,and Counterstrike(with all the hype behind this game its gotta be on there)

[Young_Fledgling]

thats a crappy list.... it needs halflife, counter-strike, quake... pacman.. LIKE GEES

[kenji]

If the list is from 2000, then it is okay because the old school Mario games are the best. Then the Sims is WAY to high and Soul Caliber II was good, but not that good.

I dunno.

[xbox genius]

yeah i think half life should be up there.... and its kinda funny to see halo beat out the other old game favorites and series... i mean mario ruled back in the SNES days and NES too
