With your input, we hope to assemble a list of the best and worst PC games that can truly be called "definitive." Over the next week, we'll be collecting Community feedback across multiple categories. Once we have a sufficient number of votes, we'll present a showcase of the winning games on the Tom's Hardware homepage. Click here to vote on your definitive list of PC Games. You can check out all of the Community submissions by heading to each category in the PC Gaming forum:

Most Memorable Protagonist

Most Interesting Easter Eggs

Best Puzzle Games
Most Memorable Bugs and Glitches

Best Games with the Worst Dialogue

    I don't disagree. To this day I never got the hype around Final Fantasy 7. But to me 6 was a better game and that's just preference.

    A lot of this comes down to a bunch of games put in a pool and people voting based on preference. The R6 series has some good games but I don't think they have defined gaming as much as some of the title on this list, not all of course as some choices are pretty meh TBH.

    Has any game EVER had good dialogue? Kind of a race to the bottom isn't it? ;) thank god for "skip" buttons... Dear gaming companies: please hire movie script writers, and more importantly, movie editors and directors... If you do already, hire better ones :P

    And then what, we're paying 100$ for the game?
    dont really give a shit about edition/movie parts of a game.

    would like to see EVERY game having a SP mode that works offline and not some castrated online-crap they sell as such (ubi-> siege),
    and maybe start doing demos (first level etc), so we can experience it and decide if we want to buy the game.
