The best games of all time!

[GhaleonOne]

I remember the original Lunar Threads doing this years ago and decided to try with everyone here. This is going to be a tally of the best games of all time, as picked by the forum members here. Here's how things will work:

You pick your top 20 games of all time. No ties. The ranking system will be tallied like this: Say you give Lunar: Silver Star Story your 20th spot, it gets 1 point. If you get Super Mario World your 19 spot, it gets 2 points. This goes all the way up to your favorite game which gets 20 points. All these points will be tallied up between everyone that votes and a final list will be made. I always liked doing these kinds of things, and had fun with the last one years ago. So cast your vote! And remember, no ties. I don't want to have to deal with points for ties. If you want to discuss someone's picks, make a new topic for discussion so that this thread will be easier to tally in the end.

The deadline is Tuesday the 15th at 10:00 PM Central Time. I'll lock the topic at that point and tally up the results for a final count.

Voting begins... now!

---

Edit - Feel free to edit your post if you forgot a game. Say someone voted for a game you didn't even think of, and wanted to change it. Up until the deadline, feel free to edit.
