Fahrenheit was definitely on the shortlist. The only reason it didn't make it into the article was that at the time (it was written almost a year ago now) was that the best stuff to mention - all that nonsense with the Cyborg especially - seemed too much of a spoiler for a then-fairly recent game.
Sorry you didn't enjoy the article. The print version that appeared featured pictures for each of the entries, which may have helped clarify a few of them (for instance, there was a big picture of The Secret Of Monkey Island alongside the Guybrush one that you'd almost certainly recognise if you were a PC gamer). The web version only uses a handful in order to conserve bandwidth.

Yeah, that raid was on the list of possibles, but I decided to stick with the nicer funeral story instead.
