This top 10 is terrible. IT should read the top 10 of the last 5 years cause few if any of these are top 10 of all time material.
Mass Effect 2 the greatest game of all time? you fucking kidding me? How can ME2 be the best game of all time when ME1 was a better game than it? Fail list is fail.
Ladies and gentlemen, we have our first incensed fan!
Phew. It's about time you showed up. I was getting worried for a while there.
If it's any consolation, the list measures popularity rather than quality. So if you like you can comfort yourself with the thought that your clearly superior preferences are an accurate reflection of truly great quality while lists like the one above merely measure the fickle and shallow tastes of the dirty and uneducated masses of people who aren't you.

Also in response to Ezrapound its not that the escapists have a bad memory its that the majority of the people voting are under the age of 13 and havent been gaming very long anyways so we end up with garbage lists like this.
In other words, "They're all just little kids, thus their opinions are invalid. Unlike mine."
So... care to back that up with something?
If the various age polls are anything to go by, the overwhelming majority of Escapist forum members are aged between 17-25. I think the average falls somewhere around 18.
Although I really don't know why I'm bothering to tell you this. After all, you're obviously only 14 years old and therefor unworthy of my time. Oh, what's that? How do I know your age? Well, because it's conducive to me making a rather snide and blatently false point. That's how. That doesn't make sense you say? Why, no it does not. Funny, that.
