details about game:

Tactical first-person shooters are another genre that are most at home on PC, as the WASD-mouse combo and keyboard full of buttons are best suited to the complexities of this personal take on war. So there are a large number of games of this type on the platform, but at the time of its release Operation Flashpoint was considered one of the best for its incredible realism and powerful depictions of the chaos of battle.

Before the same questions arise, like in the german news comments on some sites: Here is the explanation how the list was done.

Amongs other points it's for the US market only!

Its been posted many times that it sold over 1 million .

Those figures are too small for international and too big for the US imho..

I love how they can list this as the "top 100 games of the 21st century"

Last time I checked, we were 6 years into the 21st century, so theres another 94 years in which to make games, most of which will be better than what is listed here. Ofcourse there are timeless classics, but most games are played and forgotten.

And having the list for the US only... There are a lot of other countries out there that have games markets as big, if not bigger than the US.

*Sigh*

Edit

This list would be better titled "The top selling 100 games in america of 2000-2006"

And rating games by units sold, thats so very wrong. Just because it sells a lot doesnt mean its GOOD.

hit the nail on the head deadmeat

[VictorTroska 0]

what a stupid list....just a look at the games they put on that list makes me sick....

Glad to see Flashpoint on that list... but they should order them by genre.... its funny to see Flashpoint next to Mahjong ,Deer Hunter and other shitty games.....

Just one word: lame

I think that the Swedish PCGamer ranked OFP among the top-10 games of all time.

[nephilim 0]

[VictorTroska 0]

[bonko the sane 2]

[nephilim 0]

the UK edition gave it 25th

[Rommel 2]

Shame on you all, my first "REAL" Game was OFP, and its the best ever!!!

EDIT:

Although I do love minesweeper. (no jk)

[Blanco 0]

Lol, the Sims on #1, because the customers are from both sexes

Where the heck is Homeworld & Starcraft?

[USSRsniper 0]

only two games on list that i actually like Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed (was the game which came with 1st PC, still like the game, wish they could make updated version) and Operation Flashpoint

[MAA3057 0]

It would take alot more research to find the Top 100 games. OFP has one of the most dedicated communities I have ever come across and deserves to be within the top 10 in my opinion. DeaMeatX was dead on about it being non-sense to judge a game by the amount of units sold. That belongs in the Top 100 best marketed-games-from-publishers-with-money-to-waste-to-gain-hype.

[Rommel 2]

So many people play World of Warcraft, the most played online game played at the moment, but you dont see it always being no.1 on the charts.

and lets not forget that arcade classic: shinobi   (crap, i wasted my early teens playing that one)
