4/10

Super Mario Bros.	One of the best, most influential games ever made	12/16/04	10/10
Super Mario Bros. / Duck Hunt	Super Mario Brothers is awesome. Duck Hunt is awesome. So this game being awesome is as simple as 1 + 1 = 2.	08/04/09	10/10

Tecmo Bowl	Fun little diversion better suited for the arcades.	08/12/09	4/10
Tecmo Super Bowl	Tecmo Super Bowl is a very rare example of a game being good despite horrible gameplay.	07/25/05	6/10
The Guardian Legend	An odd cross between Zelda, Metroid, and an overhead shooter equals an amazing gaming experience.	07/21/05	10/10

Zelda II: The Adventure of Link	Criminally underrated.	07/31/09	9/10

Diablo II LOD	Hell hath no fury like Baal scorned.	11/29/11	9/10

Half-Life	THIS is what got all those Game of the Year nods in 1998? Wow.	07/08/11	5/10

Final Fantasy X-2	Few gamers will find anything good within FFX-2, and this includes even the most dedicated of perverts	11/22/03	2/10
Final Fantasy XII	Square spent 35 million dollars designing a game that plays itself. You should maybe consider taking the hint.	04/18/11	4/10

Guitar Hero World Tour	Buy this for a next-gen system, please.	07/01/09	2/10
Katamari Damacy	Not all too well-done, but it's INHUMANLY addictive and fun as hell to play.	01/03/05	7/10
Kingdom Hearts	If the game wasn't an X-mashing excersize that gives its player motion sickness, it would be nearly perfect.	06/19/04	9/10

Silent Hill 2	In my restless dreams, I see that town -- Silent Hill.	10/23/09	9/10
We Love Katamari	Katamari Damacy made gaming history; now, one of the last great examples of uniqueness in gaming gets a superb sequel	10/04/05	9/10

God of War III	The final vengeance is upon you.	05/10/10	10/10
Guitar Hero: Smash Hits	Leave it to Neversoft to ruin a great setlist.	07/15/09	3/10

LIMBO	This game should only sell for 5 bucks (not 15), but it's still pretty good.	11/04/11	8/10
Marvel vs. Capcom 3	Apparently 10 years wasn't enough time for Capcom to design a game well.	03/01/11	2/10

Resident Evil 5	Capcom, please stop ruining all of your good series. We're begging you.	09/21/11	2/10
SSFIV: Arcade Edition	There was so much potential for SSF4's brand, and it likely all disappeared with one terrible so-called "balance patch".	06/14/11	1/10
Super Street Fighter IV	The best fighting game to date, unfortunately it's also saddled with the worst netcode to date.	06/14/11	8/10

Final Fantasy II	One of Square's finest gems; arguably the best story in the series, and at times, a very good challenge	05/31/05	9/10
Final Fantasy III	Not just a mascot for Square's golden age; Final Fantasy 6 is a testament to the greatness of video games.	03/29/11	10/10

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island	Yoshi's first adventure is an amazing one!	12/20/04	10/10
