3rd Official Top Games Poll

[Adagio]

As I also mentioned:

If a game could be played on the Amiga, then it's too old for this poll...

This doesn't necesary mean 1996. I know many games that I played on the PC, during the time of the Amiga, but those games where still too advanced to be played on an Amiga...

My previous one covered 2001/2002

So rather than having people vote for the same games in each poll, I'm seperating them by the years they were released.

hi ,

okay , maybe you should do it from windows 93 , .... till 97

have a nice day

[Harry Seldon]

South Park Love Shack: 25
Metal Gear Solid: 25
Final Fantasy Tactics (1/29/98): 50

[Adagio]

When are you closing this poll?

Btw, as a later poll (When these "special date" polls are finished ) you could make it: Vote for you #1 game of all time, from each genre (ie your favorite TBS game, your favorite FPS game, etc)

[Skanky Burns]

The poll ends at the end of this month.

And Harry, the maximum amount you can give to a game is 25 points, so you still have 25 left.

Dang! OK, give Fallout 2 my last twenty-five.

[muxec]

OK So i gonna create a new poll.

[lord of the mark]

interesting results
by genre



TBS - SMAC (and best overall) beats CTP, Imp2. No surprise.

RTS - Starcraft - beats AOK.

RPG - several popular games, but fallout2 beats Planescape and Baldurs gate

FPS - Deus Ex beats Half Life

Simtype - The Sims beats the two city builders, Simcity3000 and Caesar3. But not nearly as popular here as its sales. Hardcore gamers dont like.

Wargames - SM Gettysburg wins - but no other games here (unless you count Shogun) and i gave SMG most of its votes. Not many grognards here? Or not many games in that period?

[Skanky Burns]

And with that, the poll closes!

Counting and final results to follow shortly.
My thanks to all who voted.

Well, CTP beat SMAC in the overall games poll, but that was series, so it included CTP2...
