114 Video Games From 1972-2007

Saturday, April 5th, 2008

It should come as no surprise that we’re all big gamers here at Raptr. This video found on YouTube is probably a good litmus test for just how much of a gamer one is. Personally, I found that I’d played 83 out of the 114 games listed. I don’t know if I should be proud or afraid

How many of these games have you played?
