Board 8 > Board 8's Top 100 Video Games of the Decade - The List

Wow, Rayman getting in there with an average 17.5 points per vote.

I held the average down somewhat.

I still have just over half of my top half left, but damn, those last twenty or so entries decimated my list.

I still don't see why I should have expected X and Y to place so highly. The same thing goes for Trails FC beating SC. Also, wow at that Rayman Legends average, and its placement in general.

Those who play Higurashi love it. Check it out, guys! I'm assuming that's going to be the highest average of any game.

Thought DQXI would do better and surprised South Park did this well. I've literally never heard of the game that got 28th.

This is about where I expected DQ11 to place. At least it's on the right side of what should be the biggest points gap of the list.

I also see that I am solely responsible for FC > SC, which checks out because I'm the fool who hasn't played SC yet.

I mean if that's referring to Mario Odyssey, that's an entirely justified position
