This is a BIG review of what (in my opinion) are the greatest games of all time. the list will go include retro, latest, somewhere between and yes! even the games that set the ball rolling!
before i start this though i would like to mention that it was very very hard to make this list and if you feel i missed out a few noteworthy games then please comment and hopefully next time i might use your comments
10. That's right! it set the ball rolling and gave birth to so many video games that it deserves to be mentioned. although pong is generally unpopular now a days there are many people from the older generation that should have a few fond memories of the game. it is basically an incredibly simplified version of tennis or air hockey but the addictive concept planted the seed for a HUGE tree of games.
9. ITS-A-HIM-MARIO! yes that's right the guy that put one of the three biggest game company's on the map! This company's creator and marios father Shigeru Myamoto
(who very very recently admitted that if he was to apply for any job in Nintendo he would not be hired!) what company could i possibly be speaking about? NINTENDO! they created one of the all time greatest video game character who has lived since first appearance in donkey kong in 1981. he has been in enough video games to count on both hands and both feet! so he was a must have in this list
8. Tetris! this game is an all time favourite its been so popular its an arcade machine, on the iphone/ipod , various versions are on different phones, on various consoles & its still going on! who knows in 50 years time you will be able to inject it into you and play in virtual reality! when you think of a puzzle game then you think of Tetris its one of the greatest games of all time and deserves to be in this list.
7. pokemon yellow is the first ever decent hand-held game made by the infamous Shigaru Myamoto it became an anchor for many many more hand-held consoles and pokemon games. i chose pokemon yellow purely because pikachu is the most awesome pokemon to start with.
6 The king of iron fist tournament has....BEGUN! that's right its tekken but its not tekken 1 not tekken 2 not tekken 3 but its the WHOLE SERIES! The tekken series is just so perfect that i really could not choose only 1 of them to join the ranks of the awesome top 10. i had to add this game to the rankings because i have such fond memorys of kicking the S**T out of my brothers on it and the same go's for my next choice...
5...... ITS MORTAL KOMBAT! thats right i went for the whole shabang again and picked 1-Armageddon. the game was so popular they made a couple of half decent movies about it. Armageddon was my favourite but wouldn't of been possible without the others. in Armageddon every single character is in the game as a farewell for the fans since it was the last game of the ever so popular and awesome series.
4. Brick breaker. this game has been all over the internet under many different names but the main and most common is brick breaker. for all you blackberry owners you will know what i mean when i say how incredibly addictive it is. even though I've only gotten to level 9 at my peak i still love the game.
3.Doom. although I've never personally played the game the name has been cropping up in everything from movies to references and from what i gather it is meant to be a violent brutal game.
2.pacman! its incredibly classic and you just gotta love it. Definitly deserves a spot at number 2!
1. The head-honcho itself. the top of the range, the level cap, the most classic classic game there is. thats right the game that didnt end or start it all no it perfected it all! its (enter drum roll)....................................................................SPACE INVADERS! such a classic game yet so brilliant and loved by millions across our little blue planet its on the ipog touch and iphone so if you have £3 then look the brilliance up!
