Definatly worthless garbage, no fallout and X-COM is 84!? And that they even MENTIONED X-COM: Enforcer in the blurb really shows how clueless they are! Also Privateer 2!? WTF the original Privateer was waaaay better then the sequal (niether as good as Elite -but still good). My guess is these guys have no sense of history (funny how the Brits always seem to say that of Americans eh?) I think PCLamer ranks games by how many free copies they recieve. Course thats why most serious gamers run down that worthless magagzine. If you want a good list of top games check out CGW's hall of fame section.

PC Gamer and GameSpy go well together. They are the AOL of gaming. They have a lot of subscribers, but their service is utter trash and designed to appeal to morons.

Yes, i guess you could say that. PC Gamer US is okay but could be better. For god sakes they been around for 5 years. ( i know there ar older ones but i dont know) PCGUS is good In my opinion. But you are right about Gamespy. Utttercrap.

SC2 is star Control 2 right? Cause Ive met many n00bs who call SC:BR SC2. CNC is okay, not really spectacular.

I meant Star Control 2 which is a great game.
What is SC:BR? I dont think I ever heard about it.
C&C wasn't that great but I think it deserves a place in the top 100.

eh?

Grim Fandago is good but there are other Lucasarts adventures that are much better, they deserve to be on the list.

Dungeon Keeper is an OK game but not the best one Bullfrog has done, not among the all time top 100 PC games, at least.

If we're talking LucasArts adventure games, they need The Secret of Monkey Island. Best. Game. Ever.*

*After Fallout.

StarCraft: Brood War. It's an expansion pack for StarCraft.

This is the first or the second? I think the first MI was better then the second.

I played all four, I actually liked the third one the most.

Sorry.

Spazmo · Post by **Spazmo** » Tue Aug 13, 2002 12:57 am

Well, Secret of Monkey Island is the first, then Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge, Curse of Monkey Island, and finally, Escape from Monkey Island.

Doyle · Post by **Doyle** » Tue Aug 13, 2002 1:08 am

I agree with Dan. I think Curse was the best, but 1 & 2 were a lot of fun.

VasikkA · Post by **VasikkA** » Tue Aug 13, 2002 1:09 am

Well, I think MI 1 and 2 are equal good. Curse of monkey island is better than Escape from monkey island, but the drawing style isn't so good in both games, the characters look different than in MI 1 and 2. But at least the Monkey Island humour is still there and the music. The bearded Guybrush in MI 2 is still the best Guybrush.

We should open up an insult posting thread.

Ugh. I tried that once long ago, in a forum far, far away. It was just massive spam and really a waste of time. I won, though.

Ooooh, Half-Life. I should try that game someday.

All of it's already been said, no need to further emphasize these peoples' moronity.

I'd just like to say one thing. Championship Manager is a great game, and it does deserve a place in the top100, especially considering it's a UK mag. But why they included the 00/01 at the end beats me. As if a game's greatness is measured by how new it is. Championship Manager is a great series, whether it's from 1992 or 2002.

And where on that list is my beloved Transport Tycoon?

Someone wrote:Duke Nukem Forever, Max Payne, Commandos 2, Star Wars: Galaxies, Return To Castle Wolfenstein, Neverwinter Nights, Deus Ex 2

Yup, looking forward to next year's list. Unless Half-Life takes 1st place again, we might see Max Payne topping the list... 8O

Spazmo · Post by **Spazmo** » Tue Aug 13, 2002 8:49 pm

Or, with luck, Max Payne 2.
