ROFL OTT not even in the top 50 games of all time eh?[Edit: sorry didn't realize franchises] wow what a great list. Hey maybe they should do the same with music and declare Hannah Montana one of the top 50 greatest musicians of all time along with Britney spears. Oh and FIlms too, love to see twilight at numbr 2 and godfather probably not on the list. HELLO Guinness, if you poll people they are going to give you a populist list not a true representation, also unlike films, in the games industry you can have xbox owners who's spectrum of fps ranges from halo 1 to halo 3, unlike films, where people generally have seen quite a few different films. What a joke.

I like the way you think

Unfortunately, I don't think you'd find those on many people's top 50 lists. Nobody cares about adventure games anymore

Pong deserve to be in a top 50 like Tetris or Pacman. I mean they are like the grandpas of gaming.

In the quote they say "titles" and then elsewhere "franchises". If they aren't gonna post their methodology anywhere, I'm not gonna give a shit.

Terrible list.

A list without Quake, CS and Broodwar in the top 10 is a complete joke.

Indeed terribe list, they can keep that list to them selves.

This is what happens when guiness world records, whose business is recording one's accomplishments which is generally easy and simple, try to be ambitious and dip one's hand into actual data compilation.

List has no credibility.

50 games, and not ONE fighting game? (SSB doesn't count)
Street Fighter? KoF? Tekken? MvC?

Since they're counting franchises, wheres Megaman? Warcraft (not WoW, hello, DotA scene)? Castlevania? Age of Empires? Civilization? Xenogears?

Pathetic imo

What demographic is the list based upon?

Seems to be catering exclusively to the taste of North American population.

By population, I mean teens and early 20s.

What exactly does that have to do with the "world"?

this feels way to "commercial market'ish" or whatchamacallit, just makes me pissed not seeing such great rpg series like baldur's gate, nwn, kotor, gothic etc.
And its not just that, Quake is not even on the list... ill... ill just stop thnking too deep into this right now because it just pisses me off ;/

LOL basically it was voted on by a bunch of casual gamers. Starcraft wayyyy outclasses all other games.
