I'm pretty sure thats games for this generation only. Still, I don't agree.

Simpsons Hit & Run is a waste of money...Fucking GameStop won't let me return it, otherwise I'd be playing Soul Caliber right now.

I think I have to agree with the dartboard theory.

Where the hell is Metroid Prime.. and GTA3? And HALO?

Or is this the list of the Top 10 companies who are willing to pay money to have their game be in the top 10?

I'm not saying that some of these aren't quality games.. but c'mon.

The only two that really belong up there are Soul Calibur and Zelda.

first off its 2003 only, so thats why there isnt GTA3, vice city, halo, metriod, etc. second, let me remind everyone that this is TIME magazine, the same one that voted George W. Bush as "Man of the Year", so don't expect anything good from this magazine.

This is a fuckwitted list. Only Zelda and Soul Calibur really belong on there, and I wouldnt put them in the top 40 of all time.....

Sometimes it helps to actually play the games before rating a top 10....

the list isnt that bad. It's not the best by far, but the games on the list are really good, at least the 8 of them I've played.

bow before the media establishment, you foolz.
Time magazine = the end all and be all when it comes to video game knowledge and taste. If you dont agree w/ these games, you need to have yourself reprogrammed.

Here's a program we can all benefit from, in glorious vb script:

If peasantloverAttitude <> "sarcastic" then
goto KillMaimPeasantlover
End if

There is a reason that magazines specializing in console gaming exist. Time should stick to what it knows, like business reports, stories about wealthy bankers and making normal people appear boorish and snobby by putting them in time magazine.
