So the list will, ultimately look like this list.
Exactly. It's why video game awards(or award ceremonies in general) are pathetic and pointless because it's just a dick measuring contest. The most popular win, not what's actually good. What game is the best of the last year?
[Insert Some 'tards fighting over CoD and Skyrim] WTF is Catherine? Gay game. CoD/Skyrim is best ever. It's just sad and this list is the same. It should be one per series. I'm not a "CoD instantly sucks" person but CoD Black OPs added nothing new compared to the sheer brilliance of games like Bastion, OoT 3D, Alice: Madness Returns...meh

"Seems legit" is a catchphrase notorious for people being casually aware that something isn't exactly right. I'm hoping that's how it was used here, heh.

There is a whole slew of videos like that on YouTube, all with similar names. Most of them are videos of those crappy Farm/Street Sweep/Train sims though.

RE: Seems legit, obviously well researched and discussed.
Those lists are pure sensationalism. They have no reason but to cause controversy. Read the lists, be happy for the few ones you feel are in a rightfully awarded rank, ignore all the rest. There is no point in comparing Team Fortress 2 with a Legend of Zelda and an Assassin's Creed. We aren't robots with one only thought, neither have experiences and knowledge absorbed the same way in the course of our lives. Those things influence how we think about everything, so there's no way a list like that will ever have a general acceptation. The guys who make these lists know that, they just want attention.

No. I KNOW about them, I knew about them a while ago, I'm asking how YOU found them. Did someone link you or what.
