    Sell numbers doesn’t say much about the quality of a game. Pokemon game sell a lot as well. But such lists are always very subjective. There is not really a good objective way to rank a top 100 of games. Even at ign, not every of these authors have played every game.

      Sell numbers are often seen as indicators for enjoyment and memorability of a game, which is essentially the focus of this listicle:

      While we have a strong selection of exclusives, we’ve also included a fair number of multiplatform classics. Our criteria for those is simple: When you think of a game, does a PlayStation banner appear at the top of its box? If so, it qualifies.

      I agree the list is subjective, but that is besides my point. Even if the selections are based on mood, feel, or emotion, the original Marvel’s Spider-Man stayed in the cultural zeitgeist for far longer than the one they’ve chosen to highlight.

      Anyway, it is just something that stood out to me.
