260 (very low score but 80% of the games are for consoles).
Either way, there are hundreds of games there that I prefer to die than playing them.
Not a good selection of games in my opinion.
unfortunately those lists are pretty much ALL 1 persons opinion....
there are a ton of games i would have instead of many that are on there...
some for their (somewhat) historical significance even though they might not be great games (ie: Play ET on the Atari 2600 just once before you die
) like Space Invaders*, or Dragon's Lair* (the original Arcade LaserDisc version of course)
which also would lead me to include games that really should be played...but also be played in thier original Arcade version....such as Mr. Do*, Dig Dug*, Joust*, etc (hell even Asteroids*)(tho most of those are actually on there, and are well represented, there are tons more...)
or early computer games that were just awesome (albeit
at the time), ie: The Bilestoad (Apple II) (perhaps the original 'gore' computer game, the whole point to this game is to disarm (literally) and defeat your opponent by chopping off various body parts thereby removing his sword/shield and hacking him to death), Evolution.. Odyssey: the Compleat Apventure game (one of the first graphical adventure role playing games, and probably the
first computer game i ever played)
also: games that were just fantastic to play....Uncharted Waters (NES/PC)....Military Madness (TG16) , Ys... Bards Tale...
(*i should also specify that although some of the games i have listed are included on the list....i can say, that as someone who grew up playing them in the arcades...they really need to be played in thier original arcade format...console ports, computer ports and even MAME just aren't the same experience, they should not only be played before you die..they should be played on the original arcade machines...preferably with the machine eating hundreds of your quarters while you try to break into the highscores list, also preferably with deafening music and the sound of hundreds of people cheering, cursing and banging machines in the background)
but again...any list like this is going to be all personal preference...
