Cmon, to the O.P. , edit the damn title to include the word "Console" because when I first glanced at the list , coffee came out of my nose. Like some of the comments.. no doom? no ms. pacman?

granted, even for a Console list.. how the f*ck did FFXII rank above FFIII ? Guiness Should hold themselves to a higher standard, and I would LOVE to see who the judges were.. fricken morons.

Didn't I just read a month or 2 ago about the CMOS manufacturer Phoenix (bios programmers) that are developing their own "pre-OS" called hyperspace.
it is supposed to run at a level between the main OS and the cmos.. a quick boot , if you will, just like this splashtop.

their whole marketing angle was aimed at the user who doesn't want to wait for Vista's (not xp's) huge bloated startup time if they just want to pop a DVD into their laptop to watch, or check their email.

got the feeling that it would be a big help to business laptop people. I can totally see the benefit, sometimes I just want to check my email when I'm out on a jobsite, and if I could just start up a small OS layer to run a few applications, like outlook, I would jump on that in a second.
