One odd thing about this year's list is that after all our case-making and voting, we ended up without any MMOs. Maybe the team's MMO players will coordinate a big comeback next year, when we'll have WoW Midnight to talk about.
I promise we did vote on MMOs, it's just they, er, didn't quite make it in.

PC Gamer's Top 100 didn't have a single MMO in it this year—here are my 3 theories as to why we did that
I've run the numbers, and by run I mean look at them a bit and sigh.

Also we didn't "forget" to include Skyrim or Destiny 2 or anything else lol, and of course we each individually come away from the process with our own disappointments. But there's always next year's list!
It breaks our hearts to cut great games from the Top 100 list, but sacrifices must be made—these are some of the omissions that caused us psychic damage this year
When you can only pick 100 games, there are a lot of games you can't pick.

The most common grievances are stuff like "no Quake?!" but of course the point of the exercise is to make hard decisions, especially about classics, eg by admitting that you haven't actually played Quake in two decades and maybe a game one of the other 30+ people on the team likes should go in.

The talk was filmed, but I’m unsure if or when it will be posted online. Will let you know if I find out.
