Top Ten Video Games

Following hot on the heels of the Top Ten Simpsons Songs comes the Top Ten Video Games. I've probably forgotten some excellent ones, but here y'are

1. The Legend of Zelda - A Link to the Past
2. Super Mario 3
3. Grim Fandango
4. The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time
5. F-Zero
6. The Curse of Monkey Island
7. The Sims
8. Theme Hospital
9. Dungeon Keeper
10. Chrono Trigger

Edit: Okay, so maybe I should have put a little more thought into this. I had forgotten about Driver, the Grand Theft Auto series, those cool arcade shooty games (Yes Duck Hunt, and I quite liked Virtua Cop when that was out), Tetris, Harvest Moon, one of the Sonics (I forget which), Lylat Wars and probably lots more.
No first person shooters would get in my top ten, I don't like them because it's like wearing blinkers and the movement is weird, and no fighting games (remember when they were calledd beat-em-ups?) either, cos they're all the same button-mashing tedium. At least when I'm playing anyway
