Mike's Top 50 Favorite Video Games Part 1: #1-25

Time for me to start a new list, and this one's gonna be a biggie. It's my TOP 50 Favorite Video Games Of All Time! It'd be hard to rank these based on favoritism alone, so I'm just gonna go in chronological release order. I spent a significant amount of time just choosing these 50 and narrowing stuff down. I'm splitting this list into two parts to be a bit more manageable.

Each of these games hold great sentimental value to me aside from just enjoying playing them. I had to make some cuts and eliminate games that were too similar to each other. At the same time there are many games on here that are from the same franchises and obviously the same genre. Hopefully I will properly elucidate why games that seem similar deserve their own spots on this list.

So enough preamble, there's games to play!

1. Gauntlet (NES, July 1988)

Red Warrior Needs Food Badly!

While I have played the original arcade version with superior graphics and gameplay, it’s the Nintendo home port that makes the list. I never owned a classic NES and this might be the first console co-op game I ever played. It was a regular tradition for me to hang at a friend’s house after school in the early nineties and we’d often see how far we could get in Gauntlet.

Of course, being on the NES, there was no save function so I don’t think we ever actually beat it when I was there. That combined with the fact that my dad would come to pick me up by 5:30 meant we didn’t have a lot of time to make that effort. Still, we got a little farther each time and memorized the dungeons to make advancing easier.

I’ve got a lot of nostalgia and warm childhood memories tied to this game and its unique co-op play status means it makes it on to this list.
