25 Influential Games at Gregor Smith

February 18th, 2005, Late at Night | permalink

Completely inspired by Michael Heilemann’s 25 Most Influential Games, I thought I’d give it a shot too, and trying to remember 25 great games past and present was surprisingly more difficult than you might think.

I tried to keep the balance of Atari ST, MegaDrive, Super Nintendo, PC, PlayStations 1 & 2 and Xbox games just about right, it’s not too top heavy in one particular system and I wish I could play some of the games above right now…

So, can you name them all?

I bet I could name most!!!…………..
Why???
As our list is made up of games that I mostly bought….Ha, ha, ha.

ps……….. What’s the name of the game (3 down on the far right) again? I only remember that you start of in a cage and you shake it about and the rope snaps and you somehow always land and guard, steal his gun and off you go.

It is called “Another World”

Ps………. You have left out the most important non shooter, game in the universe………

Clue: It’s all in a name!!
