What the fuck is supreme commander? I've played Starcraft for 4 years and in the end I came to the conclusion that the game gets worse the longer you play it.
Imo Machines 3D is the best RTS even though the Unit AI is pretty terrible.

Also I said "probably one of the RE games" cause it depends on the taste. I think Resident Evil 1 is the best game ever but some say 2 is better etc.

Now go play your 1a2a3a4t5t6t etc. game D:

There is a community but it's rather small. I like Machines more cause I like the unit design and the way you gather ressources. It's also pretty cool that you decide which units you tech. This way you get variety even though there is only one race. :3

You say "It's probably one of --" like it's some sort of scientific definite that can only be known by God. This is purely subjective and so is your opinion of the title going to resident evil.

Your opinion of Starcraft and where it stands on the world's time-line of best games is irrelevant. This thread is for throwing your weight behind BW in an effort to show the strength of the BW community. Your post sucks.

Looks like we don't even need to vote for it to get seeded :d

Kinda pointless voting on a retarded site that's already horribly biased. Ironic they should start some poll about the "best game" since neither they nor the users have any clue.

Well that makes sense then. But every gaming website does these "greatest game ever polls" and FF7 very rarely wins. Starcraft never has, to my knowledge (if the site was RTS only I'm sure it would).

[B]Also I gotta agree on the RE4 comment. The old REs on the PSX are the best. I even liked nemesis but I never finished RE4.

On February 16 2009 09:02 NeVeR wrote:


With RE4 they completely changed the way the game was played. Resident Evil used to be an adventure/puzzle game (you could even call it a strategy game I suppose, since there is a decent amount of strategy involved with knowing when to conserve ammo, managing your inventory, and knowing in what order to do the tasks of the game and which paths to take to go about doing them, especially if you're aiming to finish the game within a certain time frame). They've now turned it into a "shoot 'em up" FPS type of game that requires very little to no thought whatsoever. And the result? RE4 sold more than any other RE I believe - the most popular RE game by far. It's a sad fact, but game developers have now realized that they can make all the more money by simply catering to the mindless masses, who do not demand quality gameplay, but simply wish to see explosions and fancy-looking graphics on the screen. Which is why console games suck nowadays. Nearly everything that gets praise is FPS-oriented, and it's all the same sugar-coated shit with various superficialities. I don't know when RE5 is coming out (or if it's out already), but from what I read long ago it's sure to be the same joke of an RE game that RE4 was. It's unfortunate, but they've also now made a mockery of the Final Fantasy series, it seems. Oh well. At least I don't have any reason to waste money on these new systems.

Btw you should play the remake of the original RE for GC, if you haven't already. One of the only reasons to buy a GameCube imo (along with Super Smash Brothers Melee).

It's hard to choose because games are better than others in certain aspects and styles.

For example, SC BW I would have to say is the best multiplayer game and is easily the best RTS and debatably the best PC game.

If we are talking about single player/console games then you can easily pick an RPG such as Chrono trigger, vandal hearts, Legend of Zelda, FF7, Super Metroid, etc.

Basically you can't have a valid poll of best game ever, that's like saying who's the best human ever.

I'm worried about StarCraft even making it out of the first round. I feel like GFAQs is an RPG-driven site. Xenogears is very well-liked, and even if it's not considered one of the best FFs, FF8 is still going to get a lot of votes just for being an FF game. And Soul Calibur is no slouch either...weren't people calling it the best fighting game ever when it came out?

I strongly disagree. FFVIII was fucking awesome IMO. It was not my favourite FF(probably 3, 9 or 10 was) but it was one of the top ones.

On April 25 2009 15:55 Sentenal wrote:

What did you like about it? I didn't like the gameplay mechanics at all. Like, it punished you for leveling up, and Junctioning was too easily abused. I more or less couldn't stand any of the playable characters. The plot itself was good in parts early on, but after you confronted Edea for the first time, it became a joke IMO.

However, from my experience, FF8 is normally a "love it or hate it game", and lots of the things I cite as bad, other people like. Meh.

On April 25 2009 16:05 Grobyc wrote:

That's basically it. There were parts I didn't like, such as the junctioning, but other things were good enough where it didn't make me hate the game. There were a lot of sidequests, The R1 trigger for a critical hit(well i wouldn't call it a critical, but whatever) was kind of neat. It kept you focused on the battle instead of just watching TV and mashing X all the time. The limit breaks were really sweet IMO, there was several for every character. Some characters were really cool as well I think. GF's learn different abilities/bonuses through experience/points/w.e which your character gets to use (I remember recover being so imba with leviathan(i think was its name)). There was ultima weapon and such that I wanted to beat so bad. I kept getting stronger and recruiting secret GF's until I was able to do so. The SeeD level was kind of cool, you get a constant flow of cash based on quizzes and some other things. I also remember the island closest to heaven/hell as well and the insanely strong monsters there. (marlboros and t-rexes in particular, sooooooo fucking hard to kill) It just felt like an addicting game because of things like that. I guess I just really liked it because it was so addicting in that sense.

Don't forget probably one of the best sidequest card games ever. It was so simple yet so addicting.

Look at this way, why would someone who plays SC go on Gamefaqs? Unless it's help to beat the single player campaign Gamefqs is useless. If an SC player wants strategy help they go to SC community forums. The gamefaqs strategies are useless, I remember reading one that said not to use medics because they always wander off.
