If you feel like putting your 2 cents in, then go here and make your Top 25 favorite game of all time list (1st=25pts, 2nd=24pts, ..., 25th=1pt).
Here are current results involved 700 gamers so far.
Other top-lists are available (by year, decade, genre and systems) if you want to mess around with more of them.
Check out my own list of top games (what a great list, i know):

Post the link of your Top games and feel free to discuss your choices!
Check it out if you got a few minutes to spare, it's a really fun concept, especially if you're a longtime gamer (and bored )
Your Top 25 FAVORITE Games of All Time
Crazy list so far. Nice to see Nintendo favourites dominating it.
I'll probably go make my list. Its sure to be fairly similar to what's displayed there.
Only three of my top 22 games made the list since I was never a huge Nintendo fan and preferred Western RPGs to Final Fantasy back in the late 90's early 2000's. (Fallout 3, Mass Effect 2 & Diablo II)
EDIT: Make that two since Mass Effect 2 has been pushed from the top 25 as I write this.
" @mylifeforAiur: If you make your list on that site, it will add your points in almost real time (updates every half hour). "In that case, it isn't real time.
- Grim Fandango
- Curse of Monkey Island
- Morrowind
- Thief 2: The Metal Age
- I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream
- Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
- Portal
- Prince of Persia: Sands of Time
- Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy Kong's Quest
- Batman: Arkham Asylum
- Silent Hill 2
- Silent Hill: Shattered Memories
- FEAR

Ehh, I really think Ocarina of Time is a little over rated. I can remember all of the wandering back and forth and finding stuff in the dungeons getting a little tedious.
And Pokemans? Really?
PS: I'm not interested in a fanboy flame war. If Zelda and Pokemon are the greatest things of all time to you, then good for you. I won't begrudge your wrong-headedness if you won't begrudge mine. ;)
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
"I won't begrudge your wrong-headedness if you won't begrudge mine."Aaaaah.
It kind of just looks like a list of all the games people talk about already, and that data being presented in this way is not something uprising nor really interesting at all.
It also seems to be be kind of a misnomer to call it "The Greatest Games of All Time" if it is supposed to people's favorites.
Just, you know, pointing that out.
These games are the ones people talk about because they're people's favorite games. People only talk about their favorite things. If you see an obscure game that is already been ranked with a few points, at least you know you're not the only one liking this game. If that person left a comment on it, you click on him and see what games he likes. Soon we'll have a list of all the people that ranked a particular game (and the position).
I took the liberty of calling it greatest games of all time (within the site) since I believe the combination of every gamers lists can be called so.
People vote based on nostalgia, there is never any credibility in it.
Daniel Kayser from Gametrailers or EpicBattleAxe made his Top 25:

I find it a little generic but it's cool of him to share that on the site :)
The 700 gamers mark has been reach!!
Ocarina of Time is still owning the competition. 177 people put it in their Top 25. I feel like a sell out since I ranked it 9th in my list.
For my defense OoT is the only game from the general Top 10 that is on my list.
Still I am glad to see Shadow of the Colossus in the Top 15. I'll doubt it'll stay that way when the gamer count reaches 1000 though.
My All Time Favorites In No Particular Order
PaRappa, Joust, Mario Galaxy,... there are a lot. Maybe, Metal Gear Solid. NBA Jam. Uhmmm. Dragon Quest. Monkey Island. Civilization. Europa Univeralis III. I know there are a ton but I tend to forget them until I see tthem in my boxes and then I want to play them again.
I cant put together 25 in order of which I liked more, but KOTOR, Oblivion, Crash Team Racing, and Metal Gear Solid would be on their.
Hard to make something that you can feel you can 100% get behind with so many fantastic games to choose from, and several that were not on the site (Wizardry 8, the first Age of Wonders, Sim Isle), this is what I ended up with and feel somewhat OK with:
- Wing Commander +25
- Command & Conquer +24
- X-COM: Terror From the Deep +23
- Doom +22
- Wizardry 8 +21
- Unreal Tournament +20
- Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, The +19
- Deus Ex +18
- Descent II +17
- Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, The +16
- Age of Wonders +15
- System Shock 2 +14
- Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness +13
- Fallout 2 +12
- Quake +11
- Space Quest: The Sarien Encounter +10
- SimIsle: Missions in the Rainforest +9
- Carmageddon +8
- Blood +7
- Final Fantasy VI +6
- Perihelion: The Prophecy +5
- Heroes of Might and Magic III +4
- Homeworld +3
- Mirror's Edge +2
- Contra III: The Alien Wars +1

Edit: since the games I was missing on the site have now been added I've included them to the list and re-arranged some stuff.
Favoritest Games Evar!
1. Super Smash Bros. Melee I've probably spent over 200 hours with this one. Suffice it to say, I was addicted. It got so bad that my brother and I brought our GameCube to our grandparents house to try to unlock Roy. | |
2. The Warriors The best. | |
3. Backyard Baseball Fuck the other ones, the original Backyard Baseball is kick ass. | |
4. Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots The game that made me sell my Xbox 360 for a PS3. | |
5. Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 Even though I saw the whole story unfold on the ER, I was still totally immersed in the world of P4. | |
6. Fallout 3 Even with its flaws I love Fallout 3. All the little stories that could be found in the Wasteland made it incredible. | |
7. The Sims Spent months with this one doing dumb shit with my Sims. | |
8. EarthBound | |
9. Psychonauts Amazing story and style made up for the lackluster gameplay. | |
10. Rez I love the style and vibe of Rez. Bonus points for the Trance Vibrator | |
11. Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo Fun ass game with great personality. | |
12. Doom |
13: Pokemon Red/Blue
14: GTA Vice City
15: Mass Effect 2
16: Guitar Hero 2
17: Super Mario World
18: God of War 2
19: Max Payne 2
20: Guitar Hero
21: Goldeneye 007
22: Super Mario Sunshine
23: Mario Kart: Double Dash
24: Civ 5
25: MGS4

" @IceP42: Your list is fucking crazy, but it does make me feel better about buying Loom. "I am very grateful to have come across all these wonderful games in my gaming life. And yes, Loom is magical. At least it was 15 years ago, I don't know if it aged well though...
Ageing be damned, Loom will always be magical." @GetEveryone said:

Haha I'm already paying that for new releases, artistic Loom remakes or no. Australia represent" @velucyraptor said:
Ageing be damned, Loom will always be magical. "Man I wish for a sequel or even 'an artistic remake' of this game. I would pay 100 bucks for it "
800 gamers have contributed so far!!
Out of these 803 gamers, 202 have Ocarina of Time in their list!! That's just crazyy!!
If you've made a list, don't be scared to be picked on and post it.
It's okay if you listed 3 Pokemon in your Top 25. Man up and be proud
PS: I've never played a Pokemon game yet, but I promise to try Black & White when it comes out!
