>>12789571putting thin white text on a bright red background is certainly a choice
>>12789576You should see the next issue, they started randomly changing font sizes in the middle of text and it's a mess
>LucasArts adventure game entries: 1>Sierra adventure game entries: 2>Infocom adventure game entries: 4based honestly
I was prepared to seethe, but this is actually a pretty solid list. Too many licensed sports games, though.
>>12789571>(series)Invalid list.
>>12789576it's more readable in print than in this lowres scan
Surprisingly ok list.SM64 on the top is stupid yet perfectly expected.
>>12789660They have this entire tirade at the start saying they shouldn't have novelty biais and shouldn't be affected by who pays the ads.Mario 64 was the cover 2 issues before.
I'm so tired of seeing Tetris on the top of best-ever lists. >"Oh, it's so simple!" Yeah, but is that what really makes a game the best ever though?The Very Hungry Caterpillar is a good book, but it would be more than a little silly to claim that it's better than something like Hamlet because it's more basic and easier to understand.The worst part is, they always only ever talk about survival, which is the most fucking boring mode of Tetris, instead of multiplayer versus or time attack or any of the modes that make Tetris actually interesting.
>>12789560>NiGHTs in 25thShitposters in shamblesMario 64 was peak collective hysteria in the 90s. Not even a top 3 Mario but muh 3d Revolushion. Mario 64 proves that players will put up with mediocre gameplay as long as the game is early 3D.
This seemed to be a pretty crappy publication. Every article I've seen is some fanboy type bullshit or outright WRONG predictions about the future state and current environment of video games.
>>12790082>they're fanboys because the top 100% wasn't 80% composed of Nintendo games even though they gave the top spot to Nintendo but it's still not enough!
>>12790085No that's not what I meant. I do like some of Nintendo's games but I'm certainly not a fanboy. No reason to post gay greentext butthurt you faggot.
