The title is somewhat misleading.
It should say Top 100 Selling Games of Current consoles. I dont understand why they didnt incorporate PC and handhelds sales also.
And I wish somebody made an list of the Top 100 games of all time. It would be interesting.

Mainly because there arent as many games on the PC as the console also they are going by how much money the game made however I agree with you. Some of the all time best are on the PC only.

But some of the biggest selling games in history are PC games.
I think they were just lazy. All this writer had to do was get the sales figures of the current gen games, and then copy and paste....and then add a little obvious comment about the game.

Best selling would be Super Mario Bros (over 40 million)

Well, technically, people didnt buy Super Mario Bros, they got it free when they purchased the NES.
Same with Tetris.
But I still think that Myst is one of the highest selling game of all time, if I'm not mistaken.

Not really.
Best means good. So if the title is Top 100 Best Games, it means the top rated by critics or how good the games are.
It should say Top 100 Selling videogames of all time.

Not really
Because sometimes the list also goes by how much they made even tho some articles may have a top best list as the title. Like this one I posted. #1 game on this list is GTA followed by Halo. GTA vice city has made more than Halo making it #1 on the Best List

They didn't say "Top 100 Best" games.

It says Top 100 of the 21st century, so it's only going to be games that came out in the past 6 years. Hardly any sort of definitive list.

I know it didnt say that.
Nino, I know, but best is an adjective for good. Sales, or revenue doesnt mean good. It means it sold well.
So again, the list should say, Top 100 Selling/made the most amount money.

You have a point Smasandian. To me they should have changed the title.
