Nate's Top 100

I'd put them in a fancy descending order, but it was easier for me to work from my favorite down to 100 rather than an instinctual knowledge of my 100th favorite video game up. If that upsets you, feel free to read this post backwards. ;)

Also, it should go without saying (should), but these are my Personal Top 100. I don't pretend to be some unbiased gaming critic. These are the games I liked the most and thought were the best. Am I missing stuff? Almost definitely. I've been gaming a decade or so now, but I've not played everything under the sun. Are you going to get upset your favourite game is lower than something you think sucks? Maybe, but you shouldn't, because it's MY list, not yours. :happy:

Yeah, turns out I've played somewhere in the neighborhood of 200+ games. Shocked the hell out of me when I realized. I was originally only going to do a Top 50 til I realized that. :D

I applaud anyone who can make a list like that and without a shadow of a doubt say that those in that list deserve to be there. That is why I always hated those survival questions in class that ask you to pick 10 items out of the list of 50 to survive on. I just can't do lists that have me choosing from a list any greater than 5 or 10.

Why's persona 4 so far down when 3 is second and how come disgaea 3 is there and not 2 when 2 was way better. You sir are not even human. In fact based on this list I posit you are not even something less than human as to what list would not even include smt nocture I cannot even fathom. Be ashamed of yourself and redo this list before tea sees it and immediately files for a devorce. I can't even look at you anymore.

Other than that it's all pretty good.

So far down the list? It's in the Top 20! :lol:

Also, I didn't really dig Disgaea 2 nearly as much as 3. I seem to be alone in that sentiment.

DCL- I can't say without a shadow of a doubt that's my definitive list. I can say without a shadow of a doubt that's the ranking I was feeling as of this evening. Tomorrow morning I may decide SMG is actually my #1 and everything else should be re-arranged. Things are in the rough area they'd always be, but whether #10 or #20 could change depending on my mood.

I just do not understand what people see in Kingdom Hearts. It lacks pretty much everything that makes good hack n slash games so compelling

I'm trying to figure out why people are so high on Persona 4. It's a fine game in and of itself, but it deserves to be low because it's nothing but Persona 3 with the ability to control your buddies in battle. We were ripped off, goddammit!!!

That was kinda my point sure even after you deduct for teddy's puns and all it shouldn't have fallen that far behind essentially the same game :lol:

Why would you give that much credit to the same game though? It's like, "Well, Persona 3 did this really really well. Like really well. Persona 4 did this...not as well." It's more or less what I feel is wrong with video game ratings. A game gets a lot of praise for working correctly, but they rarely take into account it's the same game as the previous game in a series. How can a game be THAT great if it's a sequel that didn't change things much...if at all. Personal enjoyment aside of course, but in Persona 4's case, I think it deserves to drop for being nothing new or really all that interesting.

Not only is that a problem with Persona 4, the story is also considerably weaker. Just because you think you're a slut, a jealous bitch, insecure with your masculinity, or a loser, doesn't mean I want to go into a freaking dungeon and search for you because some evil clone of you has kidnapped you.
