Top Games of 2001/2002

[Skanky Burns]

Vote here for your top 10 games from the 2001/2002 period.

You can vote for any pc or console games that were released during this period. Votes for officially-released expansion packs are also allowed, provided they were released during 2001/2002. Otherwise there wouldn't be enough games to make a meaningful list with. Mods and other add-ons are not counted seperately, but may be mentioned for general interest purposes.

Speaking of points, you have 100 to play with in this round. You can allocate them to the games of your choice any way you wish, so long as no game gets more than 20 points, or less than 1. You can nominate a maximum of 20 different titles, no minimum. If no points information is given, the following default values are used:

1. 20 points.
2. 18 points.
3. 16 points.
4. 13 points.
5. 10 points.
6. 8 points.
7. 6 points.
8. 4 points.
9. 3 points.
10. 2 points.

The updated list will be on the last page of this thread.

3 - Shogun: Total War Warlord Edition 20
4 - Combat Mission 10
5 - Europa Universalis 2 10

Turn based strategy games are increasingly rare now as are real strategy games... I really can't find 10 games to vote for.

My votes:
Deus Ex: GotY Edition - 20
Grand Theft Auto III - 20
Civilization III - 10
Stronghold - 10
Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction - 10
WarCraft III - 10
Majesty - 6
Sid Meier's Sim Golf - 5
The Sims: Hot Date - 3
Settlers IV - 3
The Sim: House Party - 3

Thanks FP, fixed now.

St Leo, good work on those two links!

Rules clarification:

How does the expansion pack votes counting towards the original game work with GTA3-Vice City?
It's really just an expansion of the first game, but is full price and owning the original game is not required to play it.
I assume GTA3 and Vice City count as two seperate games?

You can't vote a game higher than 20 points.

ACK!

[Skanky Burns]

Yes, GTA3 and GTA3-Vice City will count as seperate games.

Hmm. I realize the original post said "PC or console" but being that NOBODY else has voted for a console game, I think I'll only list PC games for the moment. And it's depressing how few of them I've played.

I'll modify my list of others want to vote for console games as well so there's more than my votes languishing at the bottom.

AOW2
WarCraft3
Diablo 2
EU
Grandia II (actually did come out for PC, you know)

Being that that's only 5, I guess that's 20 for each. Although I suppose I could stick BF1942 up there, being that I played it in the lab... nah.

AFAIR I had that game in <1999, but I might be mistaking (Don't have it anymore, so I can't take a look...)


Here's my votings:

1. The Settlers IV (20 points)
2. Civilization III (20 points)
3. Freedom Force (16 points)
4. Worms World Party (14 points)
5. Serious Sam 2 (10 points)
6. Soldier of Fortune II (6 points)
7. Grand Theft Auto III (6 points)
8. RollerCoaster Tycoon II (5 points)
9. Warcraft III (3 points)

There wasn't enough good titles those years to vote for 10 titles.


Btw, wouldn't it be about time, to get the old one un-topped, and this one topped?

[DrSpike]

Jesus how many top games threads do you want? When this one is over you can start a top game of this week thread, and hence have a new one every single week.



Btw my top game of today is AOM......stay tuned for my top game for tomorrow.

BustaMike has 65 more points to spend.
loinburger has 14 more points to spend. (non-pc games are fine)
Alva has 15 more points to spend.

Regarding the other (topped) version of this thread, I have already contacted the admin to untop it and to top this one. As soon as they have some spare time, it should be done.

/me is amused that the list fits inside one page.
