I tried to find this month’s Edge magazine in my local Barnes & Noble, but it just wasn’t meant to be. Of course, I was looking for it to read the rest of its top 100 games of all time list, but at least the Guardian did all the heavy lifting for me. We already know the top 10, so here are the other 90. Yes, these lists are useless and are designed just to draw eyeballs, but it’s nice to see a semi-professional magazine attempt a list like this every now and then.

11. Yoshi’s Island
12. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
13. Ico
14. Super Mario Kart
15. Pro Evolution Soccer 6 Note: YES!

16. Street Fighter Anniversary

18. Final Fantasy VII
19. Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
20. Civilization IV
21. Okami
22. World Of WarCraft
23. Metroid Prime
24. Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

26. Advance Wars
27. Rez
28. Perfect Dark
29. Deus Ex
30. Shadow Of The Colossus

53. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2
54. Chrono Trigger
55. Counter-Strike
56. Guitar Hero
57. Soul Calibur

67. Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved
68. GTR2
69. PilotWings 64
70. Ridge Racers 2
71. Ninja Gaiden Black
72. Killer7
73. Puzzle Bobble (aka Bust-a-Move)
74. Thief: The Dark Project
75. Burnout 2
76. Ikaruga
77. Football Manager 2007
78. Doom II
79. Secret of Monkey Island
80. Virtua Tennis 3
81. Robotron 2084
82. Lemmings
83. Nights
84. Phantasy Star Online
85. Silent Hill 2
86. Outrun 2006: Coast 2 Coast
87. Mr. Driller
88. Sega Rally Championship
89. Tomb Raider
90. Devil May Cry
91. Super Smash Bros. Melee
92. Resident Evil
93. Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door
94. Gitaroo Man
95. God of War
96. Wipeout
97. Tekken 3
98. Sensible Soccer
99. Psychonauts
100. Crackdown

Yes, the rest of the list is garbage, generally. You mean to tell me that Football Manager 2007 is better than Nights, or that Company of Heroes is better than Chrono Trigger?

Edge, I’ll still read you because you don’t treat me like an idiot, but please, no more Digg bait. Obrigado.
