Ultima VII is definitely a significant game, besides the fact that I've never in my life met somebody who played it. (Which is generally true of PC games that came out before I was born that aren't called "Doom")

However, all the games that ARE listed on 1992 are significant as well - just in a different way. A more important way. They're the games that the "average gamer" is more likely to care about. I think pretty much everybody has some connection to Zelda, or Sonic, or Mario Kart, etc. (Wolfenstein is actually probably the least worthy one there, despite being one of the codifiers of FPS or whatever.)

Everybody has their own games they care about, obviously. But not everybody's interests can be represented simultaneously when you only have room for like six games.

As for OoT, I'd say that it's not a bad game, but it's a "basic" game. All the later 3D Zeldas built on it in some way, so it feels lacking in comparison. Also, whenever I play it I just think "I should play Majora's Mask again" because it's way better and 2000 should have won

My heart sank when I got home and saw 2000 down, but it's clawing its way back up out of hell. Does a man good to see his favourite Zelda refuse to admit defeat.

My contest chances are dropping like an 800-pound weight.

Unless some BS magic can get 87 past 01...

I believe in 95.

Mostly because my success in this contest entirely hinges on it.

I was feeling good about my perfect bracket, but I certainly wasn't expecting to show up on the leaderboard. Feels good.

I mean, my bracket's going to collapse in round three, but at least I can bask in the glow for a little while.

I learned how to read playing Final Fantasy Mystic Quest on the SNES and Pokemon Red. This was basically why I became a huge nerd instead of developing charisma. Thanks, video games!
