The Best Video Games Ever Made

People often ask me to name my favourite video games and although I try, I inevitably forget one or two classics. To make sure it never happens again, I decided to compile a list of my favourite games of all time. Feel free to contest or suggest any games I may have forgotten by dropping me an email. I'm sure there are plenty.

Starting life as "The Top Ten Video Games Of All Time" this list is testament to all the great video games of the last twenty years. With so many games to chose from it was simply too difficult to stop at ten.

1. Elite (BBC Micro, Acornsoft, 1984)
In my opinion, Elite was probably the best game that was ever made.
2. Goldeneye (N64, Rare, 1997)
Goldeneye was the reason I bought my N64 and the game never left my console.
3. Championship Manager (Amiga, Sports Interactive, 1993)
Quite possibly the most addictive game I have ever played, Championship Manager is the best football(soccer) management game ever created.
4. Grand Theft Auto 3 (Playstation 2, Rockstar North, 2001)
Grand Theft Auto 3 redefined people's perspective on games.
5. Sensible Soccer (Amiga, Sensible Software, 1992)
My brother and I played this game for hours upon end and we never once tired of it.
6. Speedball 2 (Amiga, Image Works, 1990)
Speedball 2 pitted two players against each other in a futuristic football style game. Who could forget the legendary shouts of 'Ice Cream' after sending your opponent to hospital?
7. Soul Calibur (Dreamcast, Namco, 1999)
Namco took the beat 'em up genre to a whole new level with this classic Dreamcast game.
8. Tony Hawk Pro Skater (Playstation, Neversoft, 1999)
Tony Hawk Pro Skater was one of the most addictive games I have ever played.
9. Citadel (BBC Micro, Richard and Steve Hanson, 1985)
This was one of the first games I ever played and it captured my imagination so much that I still play it 20 years later.
10. Tekken (Playstation, Namco, 1995)
If Goldeneye was the reason to buy an N64, there was no doubt that Tekken was the reason to buy a Playstation. I made more friends at University through this game than I would like to admit.
