Top of the morning, ladies and gentlemen! Another week bites the dust as we say goodbye to Week 70 and prep ourselves for this new outing we call Week 71!

OK, this is getting ridiculous. Someone is just pulling my leg now at this point, right? Resident Evil 4 earns itself, somewhat appropriately, a solid 4 as its average. Fine and dandy on its own but that means that the number 19 spot once again has to squeeze in another member into its orgy as we create a SEVEN-WAY TIE! Are we destined for an eight-way? Time will tell. Speaking of which, time marches on and all that jazz as we've got to pull another game out for this week. Let's go to the bowl...

Going back into the waaaaay past as we're looking at what some people call the REAL granddaddy of the first-person shooter. It's the anti-Nazi PC gunfest from id Software, Wolfenstein 3D! Wherever shall it fall on our leaderboard? Does it have the chops to be remembered as an all-time great or is it doomed to be a failure. Take the poll and rate and discuss and what not. Until next week!
