Toki_Hakurei Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 http://g4tv.com/thef...f-All-Time.html Halo has topped the Guinness World Records' list of the 50 greatest video game franchises of all time, followed closely by Activision's Call of Duty and Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda. The list was voted on by gamers, so if you have any problems with it (oh, and you will), take it up with yourselves. "We decided to take a different approach with this list than we did in the previous edition," said in a statement. "Instead of asking developers, industry insiders and journalists to rank their favorite titles, we approached a different kind of expert: the players themselves! We are confident that this 'top 50' more accurately reflects the tastes of the average gamer and not just the critics." Guinness polled gamers between January and August 2009, and the result can be seen right here: HaloCall of DutyThe Legend of ZeldaGuitar HeroMetal GearSuper Mario Bros.World of WarcraftGears of WarSuper Smash Bros.Grand Theft AutoPokémonResident EvilFalloutHalf-LifeSonic the HedgehogCounter-StrikeRunescapeFIFAKingdom HeartsFinal FantasyPac-ManMadden NFLThe SimsTomb RaiderWWE Smackdown Vs.

Orpheus Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Runescape shouldn't be anywhere near a "top" list. It's only real merit is it's basically "MMO 101", about as simple as it gets. The game is still terrible. As are these lists unless there's some good rationale behind the picks. I was going to eat hot dogs for dinner tonight. I think I will settle for cereal.
