Eh. You gotta leave room for everyone to have their nostalgia biases. I dunno if Half Life 2 falls into nostalgia bias, but there will always be some in everyone's list.

FF 7 is stupid at just #98 compare to the other games.

But everyone's top 100 would look vastly different anyway so not much you can say or do.

Lol at BOTW though not even the best Zelda.

This, also its dumb to say "This is the best game ever" what are their qualifications? Sales? Quality?

Because there are games that might not have aged as well but have made a huge cultural impact.

Also, im not a big nintendo guy but Mario has to be the GOAT of all games based on how big of an impact its had on gaming. It created such a cultural shift.

Damn they really did just disrespect FFVII huh? I mean I love FFVI, but FFVII is so iconic too a d should be around the same area. Also while I love Zelda BotW it shouldn't be number 1. lol At RE2 Remake being in over the original RE2. Can't spell ignorant without....

They're not even consistent with themselves, considering how Celeste isn't even here.

Burnout 3 and not Paradise

Open world was a terrible direction to take theBurnout series. I hate when companies don't even realize the point of their series is fast paced action. They always end up eventually putting into into a realm where you got downtime to stretch length. And it just completely kills the ability to maintain that fast paced gameplay from moment to moment. Paradise isn't terrible itself. But the open world added nothing and it just slowed the game now. I personally prefer Revenge over both.

FFVII is in the high 90s and barely made the list. FFX isn't a bad game but is incredibly overrated and I'm glad it didn't make the list.
