I don't even need to play them with a controller anymore. Just shoot them right into my veins instead.

Not that I necessarily have a problem with that definition of classic, either, now that I think about it.

I made the case in the original classics thread that since it's an MB Classics, it should be based on what the forum feels is truly a classic instead of the ones that are largely agreed upon already. Otherwise you might as well just repost a gaming equivalent of the Rolling Stone top 100 albums list and call it good.

I mean this is pretty much how it's been handled, though of course there's been some overlap between our list and a professional list. **** like Super Metroid and Ocarina of Time are a big deal for a reason

Some of us appeared to have been holding back simply because there's no point having a discussion thread for a title that one or maybe two members have played. I'd nominate the **** out of something like Tales of Symphonia but if more than even just 1 other person here has played it I'd be impressed

100% agreed. It's all marketing.

Not suggesting that the thread's not being run as such btw, just wanted to throw that idea out there.

That's basically what it's turning into anyway.

Sorry for being so annoying, Kiii and Yorke, but it's the truth.

How so? Because people here like Mario and Zelda? lol wtf

There are plenty of games that we've listed/discussed that would never sniff a top 100 on a big gaming news site like IGN

You have a lot of posts in a thread with an idea that you don't like.

MicShazam 08-21-2018 12:47 PM

I don't remember all the games that's been up so far, but I don't remember any surprising picks.

I like the idea of the thread.

Yes, I understand that. That's where the argument for obscure just to be obscure makes no sense here.
