I gotta admit, I love a good list.  Anything from top 10 cars to top 100 babes always gets the old argumentative juices flowing.  When it comes to games lists, the arguments become even more vociferous because gamers’ tastes are so incredibly varied.  That’s the thing about gaming lists. They are so unique and individualized that even Siamese twins would have different top 10 choices!

You can check out BraveNewGamer for their opinion on what the top 20 "must play" games are, but if you want to see a correct version, here they are (in no particular order) :

• Star Control II
• Grim Fandango
• Starcraft
• Half-Life 1
• Portal
• No One Lives Forever
• Baldur’s Gate
• Metal Gear Solid
• Civilization
• Grand Theft Auto 3

Yes, I know that there are only 10 games on this list, but I think that gives each one a more hallowed aura.  Lots of games are top 20 fodder, but to get into the top 10 you have to be memorable, revolutionary and captivating.  I reckon the top 10 above all fall into this bracket, but its always cool to see what other gamers lists look like…
