I think Contra should have made it, certainly it was a QUALITY precursor to today's ultraviolence. And Mario 3, just because, if you played it back then as a young 'un, it probably blew your mind more than anything else. I know I was blown away. Zelda is a weird omission too. And Goldeneye. I think Tomb Raider, Jet Grind, and Parappa the Rapper, God bless them and all, could be bumped in favor of some of these games. But that's nitpicking, and you're required by law to nitpick these lists. It's a good one. (the list also seems to be missing a truly quality side scrolling shooter, a la Thunder Force or R-Type... oh well) 1. Spacewar 2. Pong 3. Space Invaders 4. Adventure 5. Battlezone 6. Pitfall! 7. Zork 8. Game & Watch 9. Star Wars 10. Pac-Man 11. Donkey Kong 12. Rogue 13. E.T. 14. Dragon's Lair 15. King's Quest 16. One-on-One 17. Super Mario Bros. 18. Gauntlet 19. M.U.L.E. 20. Dragon Warrior 21. Ultima IV 22. The Macintosh 23. Tetris 24. Prince of Persia 25. FaceBall 2000 26. Doom 27. John Madden NFL Football 28. Sonic the Hedgehog 29. Super Mario Kart 30. Populous 31. Herzog Zwei 32. Street Fighter II 33. Myst 34. Mortal Kombat 35. Virtua Fighter 36. Super Mario 64 37. Tomb Raider 38. Final Fantasy VII 39. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 40. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 41. Metal Gear Solid 42. Half-Life 43. Gran Turismo 44. Parappa the Rapper 45. Ultima Online 46. Pokémon 47. The Sims 48. Jet Grind Radio |

what are 49 and 50? |

I think they're in the middle of wrapping things up. I'd say number 49 is undoubtedly going to be Grand Theft Auto 3... 50... I'm at a loss. |

I dont understand how you can start out with a game like "spacewar" and then release something so stupid and dumbed down as 'pong'. Its like de-evolution. |

Too much, too soon. 1962, that's pre-Beatles. Think about that. Had to ease the general public into it, 'cuz they/we are like, stupid, y'know. |

METROID?!?!?! |

ET and MULE were both gash. A bit too much nostalgia (as opposed to solid, playable games that are still enjoyable today) in that list IMO. Faceball 2000 was never significant and what's Myst there for? For its contribution to getitng "middle class dads into gaming"? Similarly Dragons Lair, first case of style over substance? |

Bad influence is still influence, hehe. There's some truly rotten games on there, they point that out. Certainly omitted games like Metroid and Castlevania are still fun and playable while a lot of these are just relics. |

Omitting Star Control 2 and XCOM: UFO Defense means it can't be respected. |
