Edited by: Infinity Ziona on 10/02/2011 12:35:25 Sounds about right. CPP in pursuing casual gamers, abandoning original playerbase and concept and focusing on quick easy profit (RMT, PLEX & macroers, microtransactions)has made EvE unremarkable.
EvE was good because it was different. Now its easy MMORPG number whatever of same old same old.
What did you expect?

To Chatea , masterbation makes you blind. This is the 2010 list which is the latest.
Actually, no, it isn't. The 2011 list, which the OP refers to , has just been published.
Oh, and Jim Rossegnol, the PC Gamer Eve fan, wasn't on the selection panel this year.

You need to be a particular kind of person to get any kind of enjoyment whatsoever from EVE. This is something that a lot of EVE players simply don't understand. I think there are three threads in GD right now saying something along the lines of "[I sent my friend/gf a trial for EVE and he/she hated it, how do I make him/her like it?]".
Xanthia hits the nail on the head, and to be honest the people flaming him for it are proving his point.
EVE is riddled with flaws. In particular the new player experience (despite a lot of work from CCP) is terrible, and the community is full of people who prey on new players.
EVE is unique. It has its niche all to itself. That does not make it the "best". WoW and Deus Ex especially have been tremendously influential in a way that EVE simply never has. There are a few eyebrow-raisers in the list, but the omission of EVE does not in any way surprise me.

To be fair, the only people who play EVE are the masochists who hung in there long enough to dish it back to community tenfold.
Not many people like to get their behinds kicked by whatever their RL throws at them, then wind down to a game telling them to HTFU while destroying the last month of work.

Could you provide a link to that list? Or is it only in the printed magazine?

I have the mag infront of me and its not in there but is there "100 best pc games of all time" and not there 2011 chart. It miffed me too as there is a couple of other "MMO's" in there but no eve ... at least WoW wasnt number 1 ... it was number 2 first went to Deus Ex.
also :) this is a great comment :D Now with added extra Wigglyness and a big white fluffy bunny suit with a BLUE BOW TIE on Mondays 19:00 - 22:00 GMT on EVE-Radio.

Also, quoted from the discussion thread :-
'No Eve......unless I've missed it....
It was in a top spot, but then the other games got jealous and gathered together to gank it. Either that, or we forgot it somehow. Whoops.'
Ugh, well if it's just been published the website should have the list in the near future. I would like a copy of the list if possible SO this means that Deus Ex is the greatest game on the list two years running!
Shame Jim wasn't on the panel. Was John 'crap healer' Walker on it? |

Originally by: Syphon Lodian Edited by: Syphon Lodian on 10/02/2011 00:02:07 PCGamer kinda sucks now. They don't seem to take note on console ports, or even differentiate between the two. I'd put a wager down on saying most of the editors/staff on PCGamer play more console games.
They also miss a Ton of PC exclusives, which is sad, for a "PC Gaming" publication.
They just pick up on every "blockbuster" title that's coming out, like every other random publication. They're mostly a glorified blog site. Regurgitating announcements like the rest of the fourth estate. No one seems to "specialize" in reporting a certain craft anymore. It's all 'same-y'.
/agree. I had a 7-8 year sub (of the US version) and finally cancelled it a few years ago. All of the reviews/articles read like console gamers who are forced to review PC games. Even their hardware section turned into advertisements rather than honest reviews.
So, most anything you read in there is rubbish. That said, there is some truth in the description of Eve as a "niche" game.

Seconded. I used to be a subscriber to PC Format, but it went the same way. Instead of actual reviews of things it just read like "hey we're paid to say this is awesome and no there are no bugs". I think it was trying to be a bit "edgy" or something it just turned to crap though.
I have no difficulty imagining PC Gamer has gone the same route.

The survey is biased, the guy must have been horribly killed or scammed to place it this badly.

I assume most of you are talking about the US version of PC Gamer, which is a massive stinking pile of horse manure. I almost WEPT the day the US and UK PC Gamer website and Steam community merged
Havign said that though, Deus Ex is a deserved first, and WoW should rank highly (despite the contempt many of us hold for it) simply because of what it has managed to accomplish.

I would like to argue in favor of EVE over this topic but can not. The massive amount of bugs EVE has had for years without them being fixed justifies not having EVE in the top 100. Think about it on a simple level. When I turn of my launchers I still hear the missile launch sound and in many cases this is the only sound I ever hear while playing despite the fact I have sounds turned on.
Any game that does not seem to make an effort to fix issues/bugs should not be considered a great game. Also CCP needs to send them more stuff;)

TBH anyone here that doesnt understand what Deus Ex did for games, and the things its did that are still being ignored today, really shouldnt have an opinion in this (Unless of course they're the unlucky few that played the 2nd one)
Back on topic lets face it. We all know eve is a massive pile of stinking ****. The only reason for being here is because there isnt anything decent that has the same freedom. If a developer were to release a game tomorrow with even half the whole "open world sandbox 1server" stuff and 1/4 of the bugs, half assed content, excessive and idiotic nerfs/buffs and broken promises then CCP would be up a creek

I'd have to include:
1) The Curse of Monkey Island (truly hilarious!!) 2) XCOM - UFO Defence (legitimately creepy) 3) City of Hero's (I really enjoyed the heck out of that game) 4) Ultima Online (ditto) 5) SimCity 6) Civilization IV 7) Doom (i'm surprised this wasn't the best game of all time, it fathered SO many other things) ---

To the op, masterbation makes you blind. This is the 2010 list which is the latest. EvE online has been in the top 100 list every year for god knows how many years now.
http://www.pcgamer.com/2010/06/10/pc-gamer-top-100/
60. Street Fighter IV 59. Planetside 58. Space Giraffe 57. Sensible World of Soccer 56. Eve Online 55. Dungeon Keeper 54. Star Control 2 53. Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 52. Combat Mission Beyond Overlord 51. Spelunky
From the 2008 list (where EvE online is ranked no.13)
Jim says "I've written more on this game than I care to recall, but I've still failed to capture quite what it means. Singular, almost unplayable, it's the misunderstood bohemian genius of the MMO world."
Further more. Deus Ex is the best game of all time. To dislike it is fine (if immoral) but to say it is not a good game is incorrect, your opinion is invalid and may god have mercy on the soulless husk that is your flacid body.
Here's the thing, opinions are subjective and therefore opinions.
I played Street fighter II, as we all have. I even remember calling the nintendo hotline in the days before the internet and asking for hints on beating M. Bison with Dhalsim. They told me "Good luck, only 1 guy here did it one time". Anyway, the point is that it was an awesome game, way ahead of its time, nostalgic to most of us, and not in one single aspect is it better than eve online. Yet it is rated higher. So take the word of people who think street fighter is better than Eve if you want.
