Didn't expect that Mario and FF placement.

Where is Galaxy for Mario? And why the hell is Lost Legacy the lowest Uncharted?

What. But I thought no one liked Final Fantasy XV. :]
Also FF X #1 like how it should be.

Edit: Sunshine above the Galaxy games. Didn't see that at first.

Don't think I've ever seen FFX rank higher than FFVII in any aggregated popularity poll. Cool stuff.

OK I really like Super Mario Sunshine but ranking it as the no 2 3D Mario game is some nonsense.

I guess people whose first Mario was Sunshine are now old enough to feel strong nostalgia for it.

Interesting to see how well the recent games did. FFXV/Odyssey in the top 5, while Skyrim/P5/UC4 all got #1 (ESO is more recent than Skyrim, but it's not called ESVI). CoD is the only list without the most recent game in the series on it.

For the talk people make about Skyrim being far worse than Morrowind or the like, they still did really well.

Mario and Final Fantasy results are going to make for an epic thread.

COD list seems good, surprised that Oblivion is above Morrowind. I'd change that to Morrowind > Oblivion > Skyrim personally.

The lack of people who view Morrowind as the best Elder Scrolls makes me sad

I'd put Morrowind > Skyrim > Oblivion, but that's just me.

The top 3 CoDs are exactly as I expected, but other than the extreme gore and Gary Oldman performance, World at War was always well behind CoD1/UO and 2 for me. But it did come immediately after the game that introduced most people to the series.

Never expected Mario Odyssey below Sunshine... though I kind of agree. And Galaxy even below that?

That Uncharted list is a fucking atrocity. Uncharted 2 & 3 shit on Uncharted 4 from a great height.The TES list is also an atrocity. Oblivion is better than Rim

Sunshine being there while Galaxy isn't on the list is insane. Hard disagree with that list.

At least they got the Souls ranking right, even more proof that BB should've won instead of TW3.

I'm okay with any ES list that has Morrowind on top! My second place boils down to the fact I managed to finish the main quest for Oblivion but never did the same in Skyrim.

X is indeed the best FF and the best game of all time, XII should be second, seeing XV there sure goes against the narrative that some are trying to push about people not liking it, I'd personally put it at 3.

I can feel that. Storywise, I felt Oblivion was much better than Skyrim. But there's too much that Oblivion has against it for me to personally put it above Skyrim.

Where is Super Mario Galaxy?
I LOVED that game and it's one of the best games of my life, but didn't like Sunshine that much. I know it's only an opinion, but the absence of Galaxy surprised me!
