42 All Time Classics
Some of them really aren’t classics at all. Shaking a bottle of fizzy water? That’s barely a game let alone a classic game. On the other hand I now know the rules to most card games and Shogu, which I didn’t before. Good value. esp if you buy it for someone else and then play it while they’re absorbed in the new Zelda game.

Super Mario Galaxy
It really is as good as they say it is. How good do they say it is? Well in the case of They == Simon Parkin

It’s like stream of consciousness, capsule game design where every single idea is perfect, self-contained, never repeated and there are ten brazillion of them laid out in a line. Idiots will look at the candy-coloured palette, cutesy character designs and Mario dicking about in a bee costume and dismiss it as a game for children and nostalgic man-children. But in terms of the orthodox definition of what a videogame is and should be, this is actually the best videogame ever made.

I only have one star left to collect and I’m slightly regretting gorging myself on all the game’s delights over a single month.

Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
Not sure yet. Only on the 3rd dungeon. It’s a Zelda game so it is one of the best games ever made but to me it seems a bit rough around the edges. Surprising given it’s protracted development.
