190th played so far Genre: Strategy Platform: Various Year of Release: 2008 Developer: Subatomic Studios Publisher: Subatomic Studios Game 200 really feels incredibly close now.

172nd played so far Genre: Strategy Platform: Intellivision Year of Release: 1982 Developer: Mattel Publisher: Mattel The Intellivision is one of those consoles that is forgotten, from the ages of Atari, Amiga and ZX Spectrum.

165th played so far Genre: Strategy Platform: PC Year of Release: 1996 Developer: MicroProse Publisher: MicroProse There’s some games that, when they come up in our random selection, fill me with both anticipation and dread.

150th played so far Genre: Strategy Platform: PC Year of Release: 1997 Developer: Bullfrog Publisher: Electronic Arts As we’ve mentioned before, for these landmark numbers for games we like to find a game that’s somewhat meaningful for us – we care about or such.
