As some of you will know, NOM are 150 issues old and as all games magazines do on anniversaries, they have compiled a list of the best 100 best. For those that care, the top 10 are:

10. Animal Crossing
09. Metroid Prime 2
08. The Wind Waker
07. Super Mario World
06. Goldeneye
05. Metroid Prime
04. Super Smash Bros. Melee
03. Super Mario 64
02. Pokémon (various)
01. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

God knows who voted for AC and how Wind Waker beat Majora's Mask (which was #11) I'll never know. I won't argue with OoT at the top because it is great though I'd like to have seen Super Mario World. Other interesting entries include Donkey Konga at #31 beating pikmin (#51) and Banjo-Kazooie (#40). Also, Sonic was voted the sixth best game hero.

And the free gift is crap, a couple of covers for a GBA SP. 150th issue and that's the best they can do.

The 'made out of skin, this games book was as ugly as sin' one... Well, I don't know that one. I spent half the night looking for it. I have a few ideas though.

Oh dear someone has removed your sense of humour. I think you should find them and ask for it back.

Look at that list of 10 things. Go on. Seriously. Not a single on of them is even remotely funny. "ask your mum to get you a jack daniels and coke" thats sad, pathetic and pointless, but not funny.
