The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64) [99] Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 (PS) [98] Grand Theft Auto IV (PS3) [98] SoulCalibur (DC) [98] Super Mario Galaxy (WII) [97] Super Mario Galaxy 2 (WII) [97] Grand Theft Auto V (PS3) [97] Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 (PS2) [97] Perfect Dark (N64) [97] Metroid Prime (GC) [97] Grand Theft Auto III (PS2) [97] Halo: Combat Evolved (XBOX) [97] NFL 2K1 (DC) [97] Half-Life 2 (PC) [96] Out of the Park Baseball 2007 (PC) [96] BioShock (X360) [96] GoldenEye 007 (N64) [96] Uncharted 2: Among Thieves (PS3) [96] Resident Evil 4 (GC) [96] Batman: Arkham City (PS3) [96] Tekken 3 (PS) [96] Mass Effect 2 (X360) [96] The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (GC) [96] The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (X360) [96] Half-Life (PC) [96] The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (GC) [96] Gran Turismo (PS) [96] Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty (PS2) [96] Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn (PC) [95] Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (PS2) [95] Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (PS2) [95] LittleBigPlanet (PS3) [95] Red Dead Redemption (PS3) [95] Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec (PS2) [95] Halo 2 (XBOX) [95] The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (N64) [95] The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (GBA) [95] The Last of Us (PS3) [95] Madden NFL 2003 (PS2) [95] Portal 2 (PC) [95] I have played 21/40 games on this list, but only completed eight of them - the shame of it! Caveats: I have removed duplicates on other platforms, so it counts if you've played it on another (eg, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 was released on PlayStation 2, PlayStation, Game Boy Color, GameCube, Xbox, Game Boy Advance, Microsoft Windows, Nintendo 64 and Mac OS X!). I have also discounted compilations, such as the Legend of Zelda Collector's Edition and the Orange Box. |

I've played all but Perfect Dark, NFL 2K1, Out of the Park Baseball 2007 and Madded NFL 2003. I didn't play Soul Calibur on the DreamCast, so I don't know if that counts. |

The baseball game seems a little incongrous. In that I've never heard of it. Did it get reviewed by about 5 sites or something? |

I've played a couple of the OOTP games. They're good, but not 95+ good. I wouldn't pay attention to user scores on Metacritic. They're mentalists. |

I completed Halo, Half Life 2, Bioshock, Resi4, Batman, Tekken 3, Mass Effect 2, Half Life, and Portal 2. More than Myp, somehow |

More than Myp, somehow I wasn't particularly into gaming much until the last gen. My completed games are: GTA IV, GTA V, Halo, HL2, HL1, RDR, TLoU and Portal 2. They are all 360/PS3 games apart from HL1 & 2 which I finished first on PC c2002-2004 before I got a 360. Oh and Halo 1 which I played on a 360 using BC. Bear in mind that Metacritic doesn't take into account any games older than the PS1 gen, I don't think. |

Played 32 (mainly missing sports games) Completed is an odd one - how do you 'complete' Madden or Tekken for example but I'd be happy saying completed around 19 |

Grand Theft Auto IV (PS3) [98] about 2 hours of play, then traded it in. Halo: Combat Evolved (XBOX) [97] Half-Life 2 (PC) [96] BioShock (X360) [96] Resident Evil 4 (GC) [96] didn't get very far, on the Wii. Tekken 3 (PS) [96] didn't own, played a little(!) Mass Effect 2 (X360) [96] The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (X360) [96] - only recently bought Half-Life (PC) [96] Halo 2 (XBOX) [95] Portal 2 (PC) [95] Also played a little of Goldeneye, but not very much and never owned it. Edit: bold = "completed" |

I think by the very nature that internet review sites didn't exist during this period, it would be difficult. I suppose they could tot up all scores for print magazines, but this would be very time consuming, and as you can no longer buy these games in the main, rather moot. |

I think before you have a top ten, and it was scored 10pts for first, 9 for second, etc. Should be more weighted towards points for top place. Depends on whether you think a first place or three 14th places deserves more points. |

Finished 20 of them, currently working on 2 more (Arkham Asylum and Red Dead Redemption). I finish most games I start, I think. Maybe that's why I have such a huge backlog. |
