KamikazePotato's Top 100 Games

A list of Kamikaze Potato's Top 100 Games

100. Tactics Ogre: The Knight of Lodis I played the hell out of this game back when I was younger. Years later, I can't tell if it was actually good or not. The battles was slow, the game encouraged grinding, and the music uninspired and sometimes literally painful. But the core game was actually very intricate and well-designed, and it had an interesting cast of characters and storyline. I have no idea how I would react to it if I replayed it nowadays, but for now it barely sneaks on.

99. Portal I will fully admit to liking Portal a lot more before the internet got ahold of it. When one of your game's main draws is humor, and the internet runs that humor into the ground, that hurts. Even so, the game is still pretty funny, GlaDOS is a fantastic character, and the gameplay mechanics are fun and innovative. Its length hurts more than helps, I think, not overstaying it's welcome but also not giving me time to appreciate the game. Definitely looking forward to Portal 2.

98. Little King’s Story This is by far the most criminally underplayed Wii game. It's like Starcraft meets Disney meets Ye Olde England. It's a royally screwed up world, being taken over by a kid king who is downright evil. All of this is painted over with a happy coat of paint, making the entire thing hilarious. Oh, and the gameplay is really fun.

97. I Wanna Be The Guy This is as much a comedy game as it is a platformer. The ways this game can kill and screw you over are very inventive and fun to find a way around, which is good, because if they weren't, this would be a terrible game to play. Requiring nothing more than precision platforming, and a wish that you laugh and try again when Giant Kraid Zangief uses his Super on you instead of ragequtting the game, IWBTG helped a me realize how fun it could be to get your ass kicked in a game.

Best Thing: Apples falling up Worst Thing: Horrible, player-screwing glitches

96. Mischief Makers The N64 had a lot of hidden gems. Mischief Makers was one of them - to this day, it's still one of the most inventive, unique platformers around. It's based around changing objects you're holding by shaking them, the ability to grab and hold onto objects, throw objects, slide and wall jump, and it's all great fun. It has some very memorable boss fights, too. Unfortunately, it's still an obscure game, with an obscure game's production values, and I don't like the overall art style.

Best Thing: SHAKE SHAKE Worst Thing: Super animesque art style and bad storyline/characters

95. Super Mario World SMW is the best 2-D Mario game. It's level design is amazing, it's music is classic, and it has a lot of variety. The boss fights suck, but hey. So why isn't it higher?...Well, if I were to rank genres, platformers would be near the bottom, and if I were to pick between 3D and 2D games, I would pick 3D every time. Just not really my thing, for the most part. And it's hard for me to get very hyped for a Mario game that doesn't have Luigi in it !

The Best: Level design/variety, some of the best in any game The Worst: Copy/paste boss fights with a bunch of koopalings
