To be fair every public poll ends up like this, but for once it's actually named correctly ^^ Which actually surprises me. TL tends to support competitive games. TSB is still played competitively. FIFA 98 isn't. I think this just has a lot to do with the international/european crowd that simply is unaware of how amazing TSB is. I mean, I'm a huge fanboy of FIFA series (I own every one of them), but TSB is on an entirely different level. | ||

T_T We all got here because of our passion for starcraft. Some came in 2004, some in 2008, some in 2010 with starcraft2, some don't even play anymore, but the thing we had in common remains - starcraft. Starcraft would've been overpowered. | ||

Although having played every single Total war ever released extensively, I'm always baffled by Rome getting the top spot of that series, Shogun 1 was far more revolutionary and Shogun 2 I've found a more polished enjoyable MP experience. Eh, Rome was far more polished I feel. It was like taking a crude diamond and cutting it to perfection. | ||

An unknown game, played by only few people can be better than a game played by millions, but it won't have the slightest chance here, just because people only playing the often played game will vote for the game they know, if it's good. Things like this should be done in a way that everyone posts how good he thinks the games he played were (in a x out of 10 points fashion, for example), next the mean value for each game will be calculated, and last, some kind of correction, dependant on the times, a game was voted for must be made, since the mean value alone would probably prefer niche-games, only played by people who like them. I'm no statistician, but probably some of the community are - they should know how this is done best, I think there's this bayesian estimate, but I didn't understand much, when I just read about it on wiki... Edit: I mean, at least if the purpose of this thread is to rate games (I really would like to see, if there are some games I have to play, that I don't know of...), and not just a comparison between few, well known, much played, always on top and mostly newer games. In the latter case this system will do... | ||

If you go deep into that game, you'll find that not even modders can repair the crucial flaws in AI and diplomacy system. Otherwise modders did a good job to make the game enjoyable. | ||

In the latter case this system will do... This explains alot. I got so MAD when I looked at some brackets^^. Maybe if this is redone in a few years a fairer system should be implemented. My thoughst on votes so far: + Show Spoiler + pokemon red and blue vs final fantasy 7 This collision of games feels most weird of all to me, can't wait to see who is gonna take it^^. arcanum,virtua fighter,Quake 3 Sad to see 3 of my favourits go so early. I have to admit I didn't know the games arcanum and vf were up against, so I should probably go check them out! As for people voting UT over Quake 3: stfu noobs. Even though it hurts to see them go I can accept that. Freelancer over Privatee This is bullshit. Not that Freelancer is a bad game, no, not at all. But I feel ashamed to be part of a community as tasteless as ours. How can a soulless remake win over one of the most atmospheric, deep and rich games there ever was? HOW? THPS 3 over Skate 3? Are you kidding me? DO NOT GET me wrong. I grew up with THPS. THPS 2 is the reason I started skating. I played through THPS 3 so often that I unlocked EVERY extra character without cheatcodes (thats about 1 million times). Now I do realise that most of you arn't consoleros, but fuck you. One minute spent with any game of the skate frenchise and you just have to realise it is the best capturing of a real life sport over to a virtual reality ever. Ever! Skyrim over Vampire the Masqerade I just was really mad when I saw this, now I realise it ain't bloodlines. Why isn`t Bloodlines in the votes? Bloodlines would kick skyrim's ass anyday. Go, play it, get it, install the most recent patch. Yes this game is still patched by a die hard fan community. Bloodlines is the Twilight of Computergames for vampire freaks, if Twilight would be good and read by men instead of teenage girls too dumb for the hunger games. Real-time-strategy I haven't played Evil Genius, so Dungeon Keeper 2 over that I agree on. But other than that, there is not a single round one vote I agree on. LoLs. Maybe my taste is to weird. Maybe there are people who actually enjoy collosi and chainfungals and deathballs and swarmhosts after all. You guys are weird. So weird. wth. srsly. Stealth This whole bracket, I could agree on, yay! AWESOME FINALES, great games overall. | ||
