There was a message on Atariage that addressed this recently...3DOKid wrote:Honestly.
I mean the good ol' 3DO had about 270 games in total, I reckon 50 are playable, about 30 are actually good and about 10 are brilliant.
I always felt this sort of dwarfed the Atari Jaguar...
But I'm happy to be proved wrong.

Which reminded us of a survey done on this amongst Jaguar gamers...
http://www.ataritimes.com/rankings.php?System=Jaguar
I've taken that list, made some suggested adjustments, and added some Jaguar scene created games. When I categorize something as "Good" did I have fun? Did it take effort to have fun? Well, if took effort, that would be playable. Ect.

And there are a few games left off this list (Seaplane by Orion, the Tiny Toons alpha which really didn't do squat. I only left Varunas Forces up there since it was mentioned in the Ataritimes survey, but honestly, was that even playable?) I think the masses have spoken on this one, but I think the above shows the ratio of the games and the categories you were curious of (those categories I roughly placed). Not an exact science above, but I believe to be really close.
