The Strong National Museum of Play has been building its World Video Game Hall of Fame since 2015, with a focus on games “that have enjoyed popularity over a sustained period and have exerted influence on the video game industry or on popular culture and society in general.” The 2018 additions have been announced, and they fit this principle to a T. Final Fantasy VII brought JRPGs into the mainstream in a big way, Tomb Raider introduced a female character who is as controversial as she is popular, John Madden Football revolutionized the mechanics behind sports games, and Spacewar! inspired the future of competitive arcade games.

These games will join other such greats, including The Legend of Zelda, the Sims, World of Warcraft, and Space Invaders. Honestly, I’m surprised Sonic and The Oregon Trail made it in before Final Fantasy VII, but hey, better late than never. The full list of World Video Game Hall of Fame inductees can be found here.

Of course, you can’t have winners without some losers. Tomb Raider and company had some tough competition, beating out Call of Duty, Half-Life, Metroid, Minecraft, Dance Dance Revolution, King’s Quest, Asteroids, and Ms. Pac Man for their places in the Hall.

If you’re steaming because your favorite wasn’t in the running, have no fear. You can nominate games deserving of a place in the Hall of Fame here.
