Here's their top ten:
1. Oblivion
2. Half-Life 2 (+ ep2)
3. Deus Ex
4. BF2
5. WoW
6. Civilization IV
7. Rome: Total War
8. Thief: Deadly Shadows
9. GTA: San Andreas 
10. The Sims 2
Wow that list is BS. It might be slightly more believable if it said "best games of the past few years", but even then it would be quite off.
Agreed, Everyone knows that the best game of all time was Tetris!
Also liked your list of games eariler DS, but um.... You seem to have missed Master of Orion I and II, III was ok but not the same game and to complex...

My list is not a list of really good games, its a list of games that have lasted me a long time.
Master of Orion II (the best of them IMO) isn't on the list yet because I only started playing it 4 days ago.
Power to the Mrrshan Armada!
And I understand where your coming form, Most of those games you listed are the ones on my top 10 list as well... (need to find a copy of Alpha centari...)
MOOII is one of those that you can keep in your collection, and when you get board with something, Or there's a server upgrade ( ) you can spend a few dozen hours taking over a different galaxy :) Has good Replay value.

I understand how Graphics changing can earn the newer games big points on a Top 10 list, But Are they taking in the Cultural effect too? (I don't read PCG Mag, so can't say they do)
If they want to do a list like that and call it the best of all time, I'd think it would be important to look at the effect ithad on society. WOW would probally earn its spot where it is, Simply because of how much of an effect it has on (the American anyway) public. But most of these games were Big hits, that died down in popularity after a while, Such as Oblivion... for 1 month thats all I heard about, and after that, This is the first time it's made a comeback in my memory.
On the other hand, Games like Pac-Man and Tetris are still around. Also, back (before my time) a few decades (feel old yet?) ago, they had things such as Tetris/Pacman Bars... and who can forget those good ole tabels with the Pacman machine inside of them.
If you ask me, these games belong on a top 10 of all time list...
Tetris
Pac-Man
(both classics that took the world by storm)
Master of Orion (defined the Turn-Base Stratagey game)
Everquest (started the current MMORPG craze)
World of Warcraft (made MMO's a mainstream item)
Wing Commander (frist popular Space-fighter sim, started a treand that would run for most of the 90's)
... All of these should be somewhere near the top IMO, as well as many more that I can't think of. Of course, Everyone has different opinions, And mine are worth about 2 ISK
