Great Games

[JediConsular7]

Well I thought this poll might be pretty interesting. (My 3rd poll in less than 24 hours I should be the poll master) :cool:

[Musopticon?]

I'm so not going to answer this. How can you compare e.g Zelda and C&C? Make poll for games of certain genre.

[213374U]

I am deeply offended by the inclusion of the bastardized sequel known as Invisible War together with the original.

 

And no, Topaz Quasar has the Poll Master title... for eternity. Sorry.

[Musopticon?]

True. Quasar is unbeatable.

[Baley]

Why Ultima I and II?

 

They're hardly the highlight of the series....

 

Unless you mean Ultima Underworld I and II...

[Guest Mistress]

Dungeon Keeper is not in this poll. As such, I reject it and hmph.

 

(from the list...which is a fairly odd and tricky to compare mix, I have probably enjoyed the Civ games the most over the years).

[Baley]

What's missing:

 

Fallout 1

Fallout 2

Icewind Dale 1

Icewind Dale 2

Planescape Torment

Baldur's Gate 1

Baldur's Gate 2

Arcanum

Ultima 7

Septerra Core :ph34r:

System Shock 1

System Shock 2

Gothic

LSL series

Monkey Island series

Space Quest Series

Indiana Jones series

Sanitarium

Grim Fandango

The Dig

King's Quest

Guilty Gear X

GG XX

 

 

 

 

And the list goes on and on....

[Musopticon?]

Thief!

[Baley]

Yeah,that too...

 

Way too many good games to make a poll like this...

[Darth Flatus]

To save embarassment you should just delete this topic now.

Out of sight, out of mind

[Musopticon?]

Or we march through the mountains of spam. Again.

[><FISH'>]

If Quasar were here he would make a poll on whether or not we should spam this topic....

 

 

I vote spam!

[6 Foot Invisible Rabbit]

What? No Fallout or PS:T?

[metadigital]

Why  Ultima I and II?

 

They're hardly the highlight of the series....

 

Unless you mean  Ultima Underworld I and II...

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Ultima I ... hmmm *scratches head* I don't recall it, that must be Akalabeth, surely? And that was circa 1982 ...

[Gabrielle]

I voted Kotor, but where's Fallout? It's a classic.

[Darque]

Unable to vote: no choices worth voting on.

[The Elite_elite]

I voted KOTOR. What I really would have voted for is Halo: Combat Evolved.

[Calax]

The origional C&C's were good. Then with the advent of Tiberian Sun the franchise Bellyflopped. The Newest Incarnation isn't even a Command and Conquer. It has absolutly no similarity's byond the name.

[GhostofAnakin]

I'm gonna go with the fanboy-ish response since a)I do like the KOTOR games and b)the other games on the list aren't really that interesting to me.

[EnderAndrew]

Ultima 0 was Alkabeth.

 

Ultima I was when you took on Mondain and his Gem of Immortality.

[alanschu]

Thus beginning the trilogy of trilogies!

 

I bow before Beast British!

[jaguars4ever]

For the record I'd just like to point out that there's only one true Pollerator:

 

Topaz Quasar

 

Let's see, I'm counting a grand total of 105 polls...but those are only the ones which haven't been deleted.

[Yst]

Meh. None of my top three or four games are on the list, and comparing those that are on the list is impossible.

 

Comparing, for example, a historically important RTS series (C&C) to a single-player FPS (HL2) and and an elaborated multiplayer mod using the same engine (CS Source)? How does one begin to compare?

 

 

In other burning questions this day, which is better?

 

(1) The Battle of Waterloo, an irate German mime named Hans and the colour vermillion.

 

or

 

(2) Machiavelli's The Prince, dermatological self-examination and the half-life of Carbon-14.

 

 

But seriously, not only are these games selected from genres with entirely different goals, many of the options on this list contain, within a single option, both great and terrible games from multiple, distinct genres.

 

Comparing groups of often dissimilar games, both successful and unsuccessful, with other groups of often dissimilar games of equally variable quality? Huh?

[EnderAndrew]

(1) The Battle of Waterloo, an irate German mime named Hans and the colour vermillion.

The Battle of Waterloo wasn't a great battle, and vermillion isn't nearly as great as saffron. So clearly, Hans is the winner here.

(2) Machiavelli's The Prince, dermatological self-examination and the half-life of Carbon-14.

I prefer The Little Prince over The Prince, and self-examination is more fun on other parts of the body. Again, clearly we have a victor in the half-life of Carbon-14.
