  1. Alright boys and girls here is the most important list of your life. I went through all 108 games listed here: http://tpirsummaries.8m.com/Other/AllSeasons.html (as well as one more that isn't on that list yet, see Unranked Tier) and sorted them into tiers. I ranked games on a number of things, how recognizable it is, fun factor, diificulty, prizes available etc. I'll make some notes here and there about some tough calls. Also to note, S tier is ranked in order, in other words, those are the top 5 games. Every other tier is just in order of me coming across them.
  2.  
  3. S tier - The Best of the Heckin Best
  4. Plinko - This is the game everybody wants to play. It's THE Price is Right game. Pretty obvious #1 I'd say.
  5. Cliff Hangers - The Song is incredible, the suspense is palpable, and even losing is a little funny. This is basically #1A.
  6. Hole in One(Or Two) - Iconic game, one of the easiest car games if you can price decently and use a putter.
  7. Golden Road - Tough game, but insane amount of prizes available, rarely shows up tho.
  8. One Away - This one is borderline but the suspense listening for that car honk pushed it to S tier.
  9.  
  10. A tier - Really solid, you're gonna have a lot of fun or at least have a good shot at some big prizes if you get these.
  11. Clock Game - Another borderline one, probably the most suspensful game on the show, pretty hard tho.
  12. 3 Strikes - A lot of luck in this game, but it just looks cool and fun, plus baseball.
  13. Grand Game
  14. Race Game - Hectic and lots of fun.
  15. That's Too Much! - Probably one of my favorite games to watch Bob host, he always goaded people brilliantly to roar "THAT'S TOO MUCH!"
  16. Master Key - Low key favorite of mine, not really sure why but I've always liked this game a lot.
  17. Let 'Em Roll - If not for the top 5, this is the game I would want to play most. Even though there's a ton of luck, it just seems fun.
  18. Super Ball!
  19. Triple Play - 3 cars. 3 CARS. 3 CARS!
  20. Pay the Rent - Newish game that plays kinda similarly to Golden Road... could crack S tier someday.
  21. Range Game - This game floated between tiers before I finally decided to stick it in A tier. It's fairly hard, but has good suspense, and the "This thing won't run again for 37 hours" joke always made me smile.
  22.  
  23. B tier - Fun Games, but maybe a little convoluted or difficult compared to others.
  24. Switcheroo
  25. Card Game
  26. Any Number
  27. Money Game
  28. Rat Race - A newish game that is pretty funny, but it's all luck, and sometimes it seems like the game barely even works.
  29. Temptation
  30. Punch a Bunch - Almost put this in A tier, but it's realllllllly hard to win this game.
  31. Five Price Tags
  32. Cover Up
  33. Secret "X" - Close to A tier, but I've seen too many games where the player plays perfectly but still loses.
  34. Make Your Move
  35. Spelling Bee - Another really cool game that seems to never get won.
  36. It's in the Bag
  37. Line 'Em Up
  38. Balance Game '06
  39. Gas Money
  40. Dice Game - I really can't decide if this game should be A tier or not. Can be very luck dependant, but it usually is in the player's favor with this game.
  41.  
  42. C tier - Meh, you could do better, you could do worse.
  43. Lucky $even
  44. Grocery Game
  45. Safe Crackers
  46. Danger Price
  47. 10 Chances - Interesting game, but very difficult.
  48. Pick-A-Pair
  49. Pathfinder - This game was difficult to place. Always seems like people make it harder than it should be.
  50. Now... Or Then - Always cool to see how much stuff cost "then". Usually pretty easy game as well.
  51. Check-Out
  52. Hit Me
  53. Penny Ante
  54. Credit Card
  55. Shopping Spree
  56. ½ Off
  57. Bonkers
  58. Pass the Buck
  59. Time Is Money
  60. Hi Lo
  61.  
  62. D tier
  63. Poker Game
  64. Bullseye '76
  65. Bonus Game
  66. Take Two
  67. Check Game - This game is not good at all, but the oversized checks are pretty cool.
  68. Shell Game
  69. Give or Keep
  70. Magic Number
  71. $uper $aver
  72. Pocket ¢hange
  73. Stack the Deck
  74. Make Your Mark
  75. More Or Less
  76.  
  77. E tier - Pretty bad games, but they are at least a little more exciting or interesting than the bottom of the barrel.
  78. Squeeze Play - The only thing saving this from F tier is the creaking noise, I enjoy it for no reason other than that.
  79. Push Over
  80. Freeze Frame
  81. Flip Flop
  82. Eazy as 1-2-3
  83. 2 for the Price of 1
  84. Swap Meet - Another near F tier, but it's kinda cool that two prizes end up being the exact same price.
  85. Bump
  86. Buy Or Sell
  87. Clearance Sale
  88. Joker
  89. Step Up
  90. Fortune Hunter
  91. Split Decision - A bit of a confusing game, but it's interesting enough to scrape into E tier.
  92.  
  93. F tier - Awful, terrible games that take 15 seconds to play, and don't even offer anything great. Almost better to take nothing.
  94. Most Expen$ive - Boring game, used to save time for games people actually want to play.
  95. Double Prices - Another game used to save time
  96. 1 Right Price - As close to RNG: The Game as you can get.
  97. Barker's Bargain Bar - This one almost squeezed into E tier, but then the name was changed to Bargain Game.
  98. Switch? - This is possibly the worst game in existance. Are the prices correct or not? That's the height of excitement in this game.
  99. 1 Wrong Price - Because 1 Right Price was so incredible that we needed the opposite of it.
  100. Pick-A-Number - Pick. A. Number. Insanely groundbreaking game. How is this game still around?
  101. Side by Side - Basically revamped Double Prices... it isn't better tho.
  102. Coming or Going - The set up for this game nearly saves it from F tier, but it's still a 50/50 game.
  103. Do The Math - This game at its core is, "Do you think the first thing costs more than the second thing."
  104.  
  105. Unranked Tier - I have no real knowledge of these games, nor do I have any opinion on them after reading a little about them. A lot of these games were old games that were retired pretty early in the show's history. A few others were new games that I haven't seen, including one (Hot Seat) that just debuted like 3 weeks ago.
  106. Hurdles
  107. The Phone Home Game
  108. Balance Game '84
  109. Trader Bob
  110. Bullseye '72
  111. It's Optional
  112. Add 'Em Up
  113. Walk of Fame
  114. On the Spot
  115. Gallery Game
  116. One the Nose
  117. Mystery Price
  118. Finish Line
  119. Vend-O-Price
  120. Shower Game
  121. Double Digits
  122. Double Bullseye
  123. Telephone Game
  124. Professor Price
  125. Double Cross
  126. Hot Seat
  127.  
  128. I'd love to see people's opinions on this. Is there a game that's horribly overrated/underrated? Any games that stick out to you? I might make changes, add notes if I think to.
