EGM Issue 150

I just got this in the mail yesterday and I thought the most interesting feature they had was the top 100 games of all time. Samurai Showdown II made the list (no. 74, I think, but not too sure). Also, many of the editors picked their own top 5 games of all time and Magician Lord appeared on a few different lists as well as Nam 1975.
Also, they showed various polls and it looks like the majority of gamers prefer 2D over 3D games. Some interesting tidbits I thought I'd share. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

I'm not very surprised... as far as I'm concerned, the 16-bit era still was the height of gaming.

Riot, what's really sad is that when asked what was the best era for video games, most readers said 32&64-bit, while the 16 bit era came in at second. Nothing compares to the 16 bit era. I had better memories from those days than when I owned a PlayStation and N64.

Holy Shit! I gotta buy #150! I have issue #100 and I remember them saying they would have another Top 100 list in issue 200.

I never thought they'd do one at 150! Ah well, might as well update it every 50 issues. COOL. <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0">

p.s. Ironic, in issue 100, SSII didn't even make the Top 100 list, instead SS1 made it and at no. 99. Shows you that everyone is different, even the editors! <IMG SRC="smilies/makeface.gif" border="0">
