There’s quite a bit to speak about in our checklist of the 300 greatest PC games of all time. So a lot, in reality, that we have prolonged our podcast dialogue with Christian Schiffer straight right into a second half – together with a shocking twist:

At the time of recording, Christian is engaged on his personal checklist of the 100 greatest games that had been lacking from our checklist!

He presents it to Micha and Géraldine within the podcast, in fact, and there are all types of treasures on it which are really worthy additions to our checklist: The house technique traditional Master of Orion 2, for instance.

Or Anstoss 2, the soccer champion of hearts. Or the “immersive sim” progenitor Ultima Underworld, by which bottles rolled down uneven surfaces – in 1992! Or the loopy tv supervisor Mad TV. Or – how might that not be chosen? – Hotline Miami!
