My Top 100 Games of All Time

*Updated 08.17.26 These are games that have acted as stepping stones along my road through the video game medium. These all do something to push the genre forward or just nail a key element of game design in a way others don’t. They are first and foremost fun, but also exhilarating & emotional. Many are masters at storytelling, utterly immersive, or downright addicting. Some are just classics or games that made me happy when I was in my youth and didn't know that they weren’t masterpieces ;) - this list tells my gaming story over the years. Video Games are so special! Ps. There are 5 slots on the end of this list for games to rotate into. My thoughts on games change over time and upon replays, etc. So, this list shifts around a lot & hence I give myself that extra 5 slots to keep games in rotation. So, don't come at me about it technically being a 105 list haha. ;)
