The Test of Time

I've always shied away from trying to compile "best of" lists. Considering that your tastes change, little by little, every day and that when you're put on the spot it's often hard to remember just how much fun game A was and just how strategically impressive game B was and so on and so forth it's pretty hard to pick a definitive top twenty games and basically a nonsense to try and put them in some sort of order. And yet the itch remains: everyone likes reading and commenting on these sorts of lists and so the desire remains there to write one, however impractical it might actually be.
