One of the best ways to learn about game design is to just play a whole bunch of games. But with thousands of titles to choose from... where do you start? Well, this video lists 100 games that have most helped me in my journey to understand game development - from arcade classics to virtual reality thrills.

=== Corrections ===

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare was developed by Infinity Ward, not Treyarch.

Spaceteam is actually still on the iOS App Store!
