EDGE recent put out a special issue featuring the 100 great video games of all time. The list is below, though the full magazine can be ordered here.

This is how EDGE says it determined its list:

“In compiling the list, we worked to simple criteria: all formats – console, PC, portable, coin-op, touchscreen – were eligible; we could include only a single entry from any series that features straight-up sequels; and each game had to stand up today rather than making the cut for reasons of nostalgia or historic significance.”

And here’s the full lineup:

100 – WarioWare Inc – GBA
99 – Spec Ops: The Line
98 – Papers, Please
97 – DriveClub
96 – Braid
95 – Super Hexagon
94 – Her Story
93 – Super Monkey Ball
92 – Final Fantasy XII
91 – Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
90 – Katamari Damacy
89 – Animal Crossing: New Leaf
88 – Resogun
87 – Puzzle Bobble
86 – F-Zero GX
85 – The Sims 3
84 – R-Type Final
83 – Elite: Dangerous
82 – Bomberman
81 – Starcraft II
80 – Pac-Man Championship Edition
79 – BioShock
78 – CoD 4: Modern Warfare
77 – Puzzle & Dragons
76 – Tearaway

This week’s issue of Famitsu shares more on Genei Ibun Roku #FE. Along with two brand new characters, we have news about three new Mirages.

Below is information about the latest characters, courtesy of Gematsu:

– Mamori Minamoto (voiced by Kaori Fukuhara) – A talent and Mirage Master that belongs to the same public entertainment office as the protagonists. She’s an elementary school student that likes Showa era songs and clothing.

– Barry Goodman (voiced by Yuichi Nakamura) – A once popular musician who’s come to Japan in search of otaku culture. Following his retirement, he works with the protagonists as a trainer.

Finally, Famitsu confirms that Tharja, Virion, and Draug will be included in Genei Ibun Roku #FE as Mirage characters. The first two are from Fire Emblem: Awakening while the latter debuted in the very first game. Tharja is Kiria Kurono’s Mirage while Virion belongs to Eleonora Yumizuru and Draug is Mamori Minamoto’s Mirage.

Original (9/14): Yesterday we learned that The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes would be receiving a guide from Prima, including a collector’s edition release. It’s since been confirmed that Star Fox Zero and Xenoblade Chronicles X are getting the same treatment.

Amazon is listing the Star Fox Zero and Xenoblade Chronicles X guides – both of which are collector’s edition – for $34.99 a piece. They’ll also come with hardcovers and a screen cleaner.
