March 03rd, 2008 | Category: Editorial, List, MTk Presents

Taking a page from Jimmy Kimmel’s notable segment entitled “Unnecessary Censorship,” MEGATONik would like to apply this same sort of idea to video games. We have recently begun to liveblog games, to give our readers a real taste of what one can expect from the newest games on the market, and hence, with inspiration from Dexter345, “Unnecessary Liveblogging” was born. Join me below for some of the best in unnecessary liveblogging.

I am a strange person. I’ve heard it all throughout my life. There was nothing more fun to me as a child than getting up on a Saturday morning, watching cartoons with a big-ass bowl of cereal and then spending the rest of the day gaming on any and all systems that I had access to. Growing up a gamer in the early eighties has enabled me to see the rise of every game console except for the original Pong. I’ve been gaming since I learned to read at the age of three, when I learned how to run my old man’s Commodore 64 all because I wanted to play Time Pilot.

Many of you have been fervently reading and commenting on my other posts that I’ve done since my inception to MEGATONik, and I can’t thank you enough for your support. In thanks to you, the community, I’ve decided to put in a ton of work and bring you a special post that near and dear to my heart, my Top 50 Console Games of All Time.

I will try my damnedest to explain the reasons why I think why a certain game is deserved of it’s spot. Certainly many of you will disagree with the order I have put the games in but I always welcome your comments and suggestions. It is thanks to all of you in the community that I have been able to hone my craft by subjecting you to my subjective opinions about video games. Without any further ado… let’s get this thing started! Hit the jump to be defeated by a wall of text designed to titillate and please you.

These aren’t the types of games that you’d occasionally toss a quarter or so into every couple of weeks and try to beat the game on one life — oh, no. These are the arcade games that you poured quarters into; they’re the types of games that kept that radiator on your car unfixed, and perhaps cost you a girlfriend or two. Hit the jump below to check out our picks!
