In 1996, Chess Informant ran a competition to determine the best games from its first 30 years of publication. These games were drawn from the best game of each issue and covered issues 1 through 64. These games were selected by the Judges, by the Readers, or by both.
Best 500 games from issues 1-71.
To mark the release of the Chess Informant Reader software, the Chess Informant editors compiled a selection of 500 best games from issues 1 through 71. One game was chosen from each opening classification (A00-E99) and included in the selection. More than 80 games were from World Chess Championship competitions.

Some time ago, we compiled a collection of 64 of the best games ever played. Here's the complete collection . The last game in the collection was played in 1987, so there are a few games that could be replaced by others played since then. In any case, it's a reasonable overview of the best chess games ever played.
