bleh. Some good ones there but I generally dislike some of the most popular games on that forum, Jumper and Jetz get pretty old quickly. And Pug Fugly's games need to be more well known, he makes my favorite freeware shooters. And Cactus if ya prefer the more abstract shoot 'em ups.

Yeah, I don't agree with some of the choices either. No JPH/iterationgames games are on that list either, and I think they definitely should be.

punishment is sadly not part of that list.

Yeah, I love punishment too! And Kairuga is better than some of those as well.

it seems that this post's text is a bit misleading. if you go to the actual gmc thread, it's a "favorites" - not a "best" - collection.nobody's claiming that these games are the best. they're just stating which are their favorites.

However, no one should dispute Seiklus being at the top of the list. :D
