Regarding the cricticism that Riven and Myst recieved, I am honestly displeased by this. Yes they are slideshow games that are entirely puzzles but that is the point of the game- its a puzzle! If you don't like puzzles you don't any business playing the game! This is like if Siskel and Ebert (well not poor Siskel anymore :( ) started reviewing things they had no interest in such as I don't know... shoes maybe? For those of us who enjoy puzzles then Myst and Riven are the most fun games ever for us.

Dude, how could you put Zelda 64 on that list of most over-rated games and leave Final Fantasy 7 off? That game was so disgustingly over-rated it makes me sick. FF3 is the best Square game and they've gone quickly downhill ever since. Sadly most of their games are just a brief step short of greatness, but that step involves balancing the end of the game out a lot and they just don't do it. Too bad really.

Hey, to each their own…personally, I love Final Fantasy VII…best thing since sliced bread.
