PC Gamer: The top 100 PC games (www.pcgamer.com)

Quite a good list, although without any real surprises, except for the cheeky inclusion of a recent fan-made PC port. I'm glad Kerbal Space Program is on it, but a few other personal favorites (and candidates for best game of all time) are absent, like The Talos Principle, BeamNG.drive, NEO Scavenger, World of Goo, Mafia, Machinarium and Gothic II. Jets'n'Guns - a very early Indie masterpiece of a 2D space shooter - as well, but it's a bit too obscure for these kinds of lists. I'll stop here before I accidentally create my own top 100.

Are your favorite PC games well-represented by this list?

How is Doom only in tenth place and the original Half-Life isn't even close to top (edit: I just checked, Half-Life isn't even on the list).

They set a rule that only one game from a series can be on the list. Half-Life 2 probably just beat 1 in the very subjective scoring.

Nah - Doom (DOS): and Doom Eternal are on there, as are Baldur's Gates 2 and 3.

the list also has morrowind and skyrim

True. They did mention Doom and Doom: Eternal as being different enough to warrant both. Don't think that is true for BG2 and BG3 though
