100 Great Games

So, a long time ago (2004-2005) Stephen Glenn & I created a list of 100 games called (appropriately) The One Hundred - and then, with my tongue planted firmly in my cheek, I subtitled the blog...

otherwise known as "The Official & Completely Authoritative 100 Best Games of All Time Ever Without Question"... so there!

Needless to say, some people on the Internet are humor-challenged.
Still, it was a lot of fun... and remains a great list of games for you to explore. (Did I mention that Stephen asked a number of gamer friends to list their favorite games and that's where the list came from? If not, that's how it happened.)

Fast forward to 2012, when we decided to do it again - only with a more carefully curated list of gaming luminaries. My life hasn't allowed me to blog it this time around, but we have been recording, with the help of Mark Johnson (of the BoardgamesToGo podcast), a series of podcasts about the list. The most recent one just went live this week.
