I got no issue with any of them. The only ones I haven't played myself are FIFA, Pokémon, and WoW, but I know they are popular. |

Most of my huge collection of games I have not even taken the plastic wrap off. ;D Besides this is better suited to Library of Congress than a brick and mortar affair. |

Not much to debate, just a couple surprises. Was FIFA really that popular? I've never seen it ranked on any top lists anywhere before. I get that soccer is more sales internationally for the sport genre, but still surprised. Also surprised that the Sims would make it over SimCity. The sims was mostly a flash in the pan, a large flash, but I don't see many people caring about the Sims anymore. SimCity almost singlehandly made a genre. |

They're on version 4 now - I know because I had to buy it for my daughter to play. It's still going strong. |
