Games You Think Should/Shouldn't Be "All-Time Greatest" Discussion

Whenever we see a list of the greatest games of all-time in a magazine or website, we'll always have disagreements on what games we think should and shouldn't be on the list. Personally, I have so many games I love that I really don't think I could narrow it down to 100 anymore. So with this thread, simply say what games you think are/aren't worthy of being called "best ever/greatest game of all-time." Reasons why you think the games are/aren't worthy of the honor are more than welcome. And try to be respectful of other people and their opinions.

Should

*Mega Man 2-Breakout game in the series, still fun to play
*Mega Man 3-IMO, the pinnacle of the MM series. Introduced slide and Proto Man and still has one of the best endings in video games.
*Mega Man 4-Very polished game with awesome music and level designs that are even better than those in MM2.

*Super Mario Bros. 3-The levels are short but a lot of fun and the power-ups were freaking sweet.
*Super Mario 64-No this isn't nostalgia talking, I still play this game from time to time and for my money, its still one of the best 3D platformers out there.
*Tetris Attack-I like this game better than the OG Tetris. Two-player vs. mode is dope.

*Ikaruga-Lack of powers actually make this game a lot more challenging and the changing your ships color to absorb enemy fire is freaking genius.
*Burnout 3: Takedown-I love Revenge, but I think the Burnout series hit its highest note with this game. Takedown is a great way to kill time for me.

Shouldn't

Chrono Cross-I know I'm probably in the minority, but 20 hours of this game and I just didn't like it. Way too many characters and no character development at all. I hear the Suikoden series has more characters and still manages to give them development. I also didn't care for the element system and the sweet tech attack system for CT was butchered.
