GamePro.com has put together the list of the 52 "most important" video games of all time. Because it's a list done according to importance, it means that games that were significant, even if they were bad, are on the list. One assumes that's not why Halo is on it in position #45, which won a spot for "scores of subtle gameplay refinements", or why Halo 2 clocks in at #20 for its innovative matchmaking model.
The top three are a tad controversial: Legend of Zelda in 3rd, Madden Football in 3nd, and Grand Theft Auto III in first. Huh?
How many non-Halo games on the list have you played? I've got about 22, so that's less than half.
Thanks to madcowjim who noted the story in the HBO forum and KP who posted it on HBO's frontpage.
