Novinári, vývojári a influenceri rozhodli.
Magazín GQ sa rozhodol pre vytvorenie neľahkého rebríčka. Oslovili 300 ľudí (svoj zoznam odovzdalo 239 ľudí), aby vytvorili rebríček TOP 100 najlepších hier videohernej histórie. Títo ľudia boli buď hernými vývojármi, alebo hernými novinármi, alebo hernými influencermi. Každý z nich odovzdal svoj vlastný TOP 10 rebríček a na základe pridelenia bodového hodnotenia ku každému miestu v individuálnom rebríčku sa vytvoril TOP 100 rebríček.
I thought it would be cool to get a consensus on the 100 Greatest Games of All Time. I contacted hundreds of people from Ninja to Naughty Dog – and then counted thousands of votes. With the help of my long-time editor we put together the ultimate list: https://t.co/cNcaJ6gZlR
