Top 101 Games

My Top 101 Games Rated

Rating System:

Each Game is given up to 100 points in each category:

Rarity:
How difficult is it to find this game.
Playability:
How much fun is it to play this game.
Desirability:
How many players/collectors want this game

Maximum Total: 300 points for the Perfect Game!

NOTE: This is my personal ranking system. What I have tried to measure is just how rare is the game, is it fun to play and how many would want to add it to their own collection. Sure, you will find other games that are more rare, more fun to play and more people want them. But as an average, in my opinion, this is an excellent way to show what I consider my "Top" Games based upon three popular variables: rarity, playability and desirability.
