For this week’s Top 10, we decided to highlight the best of the genre that many of us cut our gaming teeth on.'

We present a list of horror games with depressing endings, each known for its unique experience and storytelling.

The Epic Games Store has a couple of fun games waiting to be added to your library.

A little-known game Puppeteer is on this list for the best PS3 platformers.
Puppeteer is really good. Nobody played it because it came out right before PS4 came out. When I went to pick up Puppeteer from GameStop some people were trading in their old consoles for PS4 preorder.
Rayman legends must be in top 5 and it's for sure better platformer than limbo.
no SM3 ? no Sonic 2 ? missing like 20 other great games. weak list.
how can super mario bros 3 not be on the list? also I would not call Limbo a platformer, it is a puzzle game.
Laughable...........
Donkey Kong Country 2 deserves it. Super Mario World is good, but I'd put SMB3 or Yoshi's Island above it. And Yet It Moves is also incredible. It never seems to make these lists though. Also, why that Kirby?
