So, what's up with Zoo Tycoon? Haven't heard much about it, and that's a surprisingly high ranking. Is this some masterpiece I've just somehow managed not to notice?
Yes, it is. Buy it now (you'll find my thoughts in the postings, as that is my quote).

Running low on sanity would result in one of the following: sounds of children screaming, bleeding walls, animated statues, your head falling off, your torso exploding, loss of various limbs, accidentally shooting yourself, seeing your own corpse, walking on the ceiling, a fake volume bar on the screen that adjusts itself, a fake error message indicating that your controller has been disconnected just as you walk into a room full of zombies, and a fake save screen that asks "Do you wish to delete all save files?" with the options "Yes" and "Continue without saving," among other things."
Whoever said that, thank you. I am now buying this game.

Eternal Darkness is quite awesome, even beyond the sanity effects. I much prefer it to the classic Resident Evil style of survival horror.
Supposedly a sequel will be in the works after Too Human is done. I can't wait for that- I need to know how the guy from Desert Storm got the Tome of Eternal Darkness when her uncle was supposed to have it by then.

Star Wars: X-Wing vs TIE Fighter
Video footage
"For a long, long while, this was the only game I had on my PC due to it being the only one it could run. I had many an hours fun blasting Rebels out of the sky or taking on Star Destroyers in my Y-Wing. I never did figure how high you could go in the ranking system, or even what reason it had. There was only one mission which I did badly in and I think it was an escort mission. I was never, ever good at them."
#128
Evil Genius
Video footage
"It's good to be bad. Especially with the games comic take on the cold war, and the clasic names of the intelligence agencies - HAMMER for the Soviets, SABRE for the British, PATRIOT for the Americans - the candy on the cake was the side missions - collecting (read: Stealing) random artefacts from all over the world. One of the best, if not the best, game ever created."

Super Mario All-Stars

Final Fantasy IX

Discuss Final Fantasy IX
"Without a doubt my favourite game ever. I love everything about this game. The characters, the plot the medieval but not quite setting, just simply everything. I've completed it about 6 times and countless more times have stopped playing it due too not wanting it to end. It was my second Final Fantasy ever (after VIII) and I bought it when in London to watch the Attack of the Clones premiere (we won tickets). So after 6 or so years it's still held up as my favourite game of all time, and you can't say fairer than that."
"Some people didn't think this installment of the franchise was worth much, but I have always begged to differ. After a few years of Final Fantasy games with industrial high-tech/ futuristic societies, this game really took it back to the roots and gave us magic and kingdoms."

Evil Genius and Neverwinter Nights 2, another two from my list. I certainly didn't expect to see them this high up, and definitely not the former.

Attack of the Clones was released May 16, 2002.
Star Wars: Republic covered the Clone Wars starting Jan 22, 2003.

Neverwinter Nights 2 is a great game, just like its predecessor. It was one of two in this list of ten that was on my list. Owning and looking after your own castle was great! Scrolling through the ten, I thought this was the game I'd be mainly commenting on, until I saw...

Lode Runner: The Legend Returns is the game I primarily played, and remains one of my all-time favourite games. I didn't know it would reach so high!

All Stars really shouldn't count. Especially since SMB3 should (theoretically, assuming a fully legitimate list) make the Top 5.
Amazing.

Well I only played All Stars based on that list and unlike Boba_Fett_2001 I did manage to beat the lost levels.
