I'm looking for the top 100(or however many) games lists from PC magazines

jgroner · July 24th, 2004

More specifiically, I'm wondering if anyone knows where I could find the lists from Computer Gaming World or PC Gamer.

Sorry if this is against any rules.

have u tried checking their official sites ? that's the easiest way

I believe PC Gamer's always came out around March or so. Haven't paid attention in awhile, though. It's a good magazine but just not worth money since I can get all the game info online ...

Yeah, is Civilization 2 still in the top 10 every year? Last time i checked in 2002, it was, and has been since it came out

Left my pcgamers at home... but I believe they haven't had their top 100 yet this year. This months' one is the only one I'm missing, and i'll get that one soon.

I find my top games by the most popular walkthroughs at www.gamefaqs.com . Go on, give it a try.

No I hadn't, but as I suspected they basically don't reprint their articles online. Gotta sell back issues somehow, eh?

Gamestats is pretty good for that kind of stuff.

most pc gamers don't go to gamefaqs, so that's not an accurate portray. It's mostly big console gamers who happen to play a few pc games tpo. Which is why RO is so popular. Besides, popular != good. Again, take RO for example

I go to gamefaqs occasionally if I really need something answered. The PCGamer website gets updated about once a month, and that's just the cover of the latest issue. Hell, they still have who won the super bowl on the front page. But for 99.99999% of the things I do, I prefer not to even try gamefaqs, because that's mainly a place for cheating/walkthroughs in games, which I try (and succeed) to avoid. I need little help through most games.
