This is super interesting, as over the break, I was thinking of something exactly like this, but for video games.
Feel free to steal the following, if anyone likes:
Take a scrape of video game data from multiple sources, such as steam, amazon, game sales, forum sizes on reddit, as an example, then rank the games based on these metrics - but then have people vote for "hall of fame"
Include as much historic data one game sales for all time, if possible - as so many games were introduced during our formative years, and thus have a deeper, more memorable impact.

I see the problem others state. Perhaps have a random button to just give you a new selection.
Great work though.
- brucethemoose2 3y agoThe problem with multi user title voting is that it becomes a popularity contest, not an ostensible quality ranking. Steam itself has spent years trying to address this. TV episodes don't have that problem because each user has viewed all (or at least a sequence of) the episodes.
- samstave 3y agoGood point, but I guess the real issue with video games vs shows - shows are passive, games are active - so your experience with a game is going to be way different than a show - you dont have to have had eye coordination for Seinfeld. :-)
