The successor to id Software's Doom series, Quake built upon the technology and gameplay of its predecessor. Unlike the Doom engine before it, the Quake engine offered full real-time 3D rendering and had early support for 3D acceleration through OpenGL. After Doom helped to popularize multiplayer deathmatches in 1993, Quake added various multiplayer options. Online multiplayer became increasingly common, with the QuakeWorld update and software such as QuakeSpy making the process of finding and playing against others on the Internet easier and more reliable. Quake featured music composed by Trent Reznor and his band, Nine Inch Nails.

Ok that is definitely something. I still think Soulcalibur wins influence but as I said I'm leaning towards your order now.

Oh boy...now we are getting controversial. I really don't agree with Doom > FF7, I know Doom is the first FPS and one of the most important games of all time, but FF7 is responsible for massively popularizing JRPG games in the West, first with fully rendered 3D cutscenes, has great acclaim, sold extremely well, Cloud and Sephiroth are two of the most iconic characters in all of gaming, Aerith's death (spoiler!) is one of the most iconic scenes in gaming. I'm curious to see what the others think, but FF7 is a firm lock for the #3 slot imo.

I don't really like how FF6 and Super Metroid have been separated. I think Super Metroid should be higher, or FF6 should be lower maybe.

Doom 2 and Xcom seem a little generously high maybe? Don't really see why they are above System Shock, RE2, and Silent Hill
