Hi guys,

After 36 issues I thought it would be good fun (read easy feature) to do a list of the top 100 retro games. So feel free to tell me your top five games of all time (consoles include everything up to the Dreamcast). Please make sure you list games in order of preferance.

Just one top five please that encompases everything (arcade, computer, console).

even though i think its way to hard for ANYONE to decide between certain games, these are my fave's:


1, ZELDA ocarina of time(N64 - best game ever made)
2, Castlevania symphony of the night
3, super metroid
4, super mario kart(snes)
5, super mario world
6, dracula x rondo of blood
7, street fighter series(way to difficult to pick between such classics)
8, metal slug series(x is probably the best)
9, area 88
10, Super Ghouls and Ghosts

There you have it, you may notice 1 (non platforming)shooter on there, which i believe to be the cream of the crop in that genre .
Nintendo are definatley the best in the history of gaming, such genious output from 1986-2000 its mind boggling really.
