After going through the list I only saw 1-2 titles which are even allowed to make the top 50. Epic, epic fail.


PC: Yes. Console: No.

So basically, this list was made by console fanboys that just looked at the games that were most popular so their shitty useless book would get more sales?

Seriously, some of the games in there didn't even HAVE a proper ending. The fact that they put Super Mario Bros that high, is showing this is pure fanboyism. You want to see SMB's ending?



Take a good look at that. You get "Thank you, now fuck off".

EDIT: oh right, they had a poll for console gamers. That explains it. Idiots.

This isn't even what they do..they do some kind of objective counting and listing..this is some seriously subjective shit done in a statistically unreliable method.

Utter incomprehensible madness.

You could basically come with any title of that list and it would make just as much sense.

But it made me smile, so thumbs up. Very Happy

LOL, this list is ridicules. Actually, I don't recall that many games having a satisfying conclusion. Perhaps Fallout 1 & 2, Dragon Age 1, Witcher 1, Mafia 1, and Hitman: Silent Assassin + Blood Money (actually, all Hitman games had quite a fitting conclusion). I would also put Torment on the list, but the ending was too depressing, even if it was fitting.

I'm sure I forgot a few. Very Happy

What they said:
Quote:
EGM’s TAKE: So, okay—video game and entertainment publications (such as us here at EGM) do “Top X” lists all of the time. That makes sense, right? But for Guinness World Records to attempt to put together a list of the top 50 video game endings of all time—and to do it by polling 13,519 online fans? I don’t know—something about that just sits the wrong way with me.


This is right on the mark. How can a company like Guinness do something like this is beyond my understanding.



1 and 2 are still amazing.

a long time ago guiness world records was pretty awesome. nowadays it seems they just add whatever bs they feel like. the most random crap no one cares about, and now this?
how can video game endings even be objectively quantified? it makes no sense...

imo the only thing belonging in a world record publication is stuff that can be definitively quantified and compared with other results. like most sales, fastest whatever, etc.
what the hell are they thinking?

The whole idea was stupid to begin with, as things like "best game endings" is subjective (although lists like these have its place, it's not here, and not when they are done in such a sloppy fashion). It's not like "world's tallest person" or "fastest person", for example. Guinness should stick to things they can prove.

EDIT: Damn you, Surray! Twisted Evil

additionally, no mention of the witcher, which had a fucking amazing ending. so i rest my case. Guinness records is full of shit and the bulk of it is completely irrelevant and stupid.
