Essential Games

This page is dedicated to a compilation of the most significant video games in history. Now, the idea of a numbered list is attractive. I'll admit some temptation, but I feel as though it will diminish the overall impact of each game by giving them a numerical value, instigating debate on their position rather than their qualities. Now, you may not agree with all of them, of course. Heck, you may not have even heard of some of these games, but this is a list of games that were and are ambitious. Games that provoked thought, challenged physical skills as well as entice emotional responses. Each post will be thorough assessment of the game of how it stands above thousands of other games. I hope you enjoy this section as much as I enjoy writing it. This here is the list of all the posting I have done for this column; all nicely organized for your convenience. Maybe you will go out and play some of these games.
