That makes 21-50 look like this, in that case:

[b]21. Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge - 19

And means one of mine made this block - it got 3 points from me , and was one of the main reasons i bought a hard disk for my amiga

I also propose taking the data at the end and re-cutting it a different way giving each thing that someone voted for a point and see what ended up on most peoples lists (and a question for when its all been published "are they many titles on the less than 10 points which had more than 2 people voting for them?" - i.e. if 9 people voted for a game and it was bottom of their list should that not be higher than 1 person who put their game top)

I hope this was the NTSC version of Tekken 3 you're talking about?

I thought there only was an NTSC version?

Nope there was a travesty of a Pal release which was 17.5% slower and had borders.

This has already been factored in where games are tied on points. Due to the way the list has been compiled it would have to be recounted from scratch if you wanted it to go further.

Well mine insisted on a 60Hz refresh rate, I know that much.

I'm gratified to see there's no cars in the games so far. Also Sensi's further down than I expected.

It always amuses me that even the simplest of thing, like making a light hearted "Top 50 games ever!" list can still cause furious debate about the best methodology to ensure that their favorite game is high up the list than another persons.

Everyone bitched, so we'll argue about it after the entire list is out AS PER THE RULEZ! :attitude:

FAO MaliA, if games are merged, Nerdspace might get shunted up into the Top 50.

I'm really not bothered, at all. I haven't been eyeing up the list so far thinking "it's going to be number one!" at all. Oh no.

Pleased to see Samurai Warriors 2 Empires in the list but was it just because I voted it as my no.1 ?

You remember incorrectly, sir.

See, when I said "I remembered", I was going from personal experience. I never put as much time or effort into Tekken 3 as I did with 2, therefore I remember having more fun with 2, so I voted for that.
So I think I remember quite correctly, thanks.

Why is the first installment of the X-Com series in there twice now?

X-Com: UFO Defense = Enemy Unknown = same game.

EDIT - So it should have 24 points.

I know we are to discuss merging of game series post-list, but this is actually the same game. The name strangely warped over time (my PSone version was titled differently to my Steam version, but it is the exact same game)

I'd like to point out that I suggested this possibility on the very first page of this thread, but WHY BOTHER?! I'd only be ignored... :'(

Hi, Peter Powell here and I'm joined by Dave Lee Travis. Dave, what do you think about this chart?

Dave: Changes have been made that go against my principles and that I just cannot agree with.

[Dave walks off]

Peter: Er, I think what Dave is referring to is the reordering of the chart due to the Xcom games being merged. Anyway, on with the countdown, 20 to 11:

11. Elite - 26
12. Super Mario Galaxy - 25
13. Fallout 3 - 24
14. XCOM: UFO Defense - 24
15. Advance Wars Dual Strike - 23
16. Rock Band/Rock Band 2 - 22
17. Super Mario Kart/Mario Kart Advance [2] - 22
18. Ico - 21
19. Civilization/Civilisation 2 [2] - 21
20. Bubble Bobble - 19

devilman · **Posted:** Thu Jun 25, 2009 7:53

I'd expected Fallout 3 to place a little higher. Never was much for Ico personally.

myp · **Posted:** Thu Jun 25, 2009 7:54

Elite's on there, so we are just as wanky as the NGJ types.

Curiosity · **Posted:** Thu Jun 25, 2009 7:56

Gah. Super Mario Galaxy... *spits*

Several I voted for there though.

I wonder if Civ 3 & 4 are split differently from 1 & 2.

zaphod79 · **Joined:** 16th Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 14497

wooo - 3 of mine in there

Elite - i gave 7 to , such an immersive game , i played it most on the 64 and never actually got to elite , but made 'deadly'

Fallout 3 - came in at the bottom of my list (so a single point) , but having not played any of the previous fallout games (apart from the influence of it on the C64 "Wasteland") i really enjoyed it and i'm waiting for the DLC disks to come out to re-enter the wasteland

Bubble Bobble - 4 for me , an absolutly great 2 player arcade game and a game i think i've played on more formats than anything else (arcade/c64/speccy/amstrad/amiga/st/nes/sms/pc/gba/ds/wii and probably others that i cant even remember)

I haven't played a lot of these games. I should maybe do so.

TheVision · **Posted:** Thu Jun 25, 2009 8:54

I never got on with Ico at all... maybe I missed the point, but I found it a little boring!

Curiosity · **Posted:** Thu Jun 25, 2009 9:21

Bubble Bobble was a classic. I played it so freakin' much back in the day. Not sure I'd like it any more though.

TheVision · **Posted:** Thu Jun 25, 2009 9:25

I recently downloaded Bubble Bobble for my Wii... it's not as good as I remember, but still good.

Whether it's better than Perfect Dark though... well, that's another story!

I still enjoy it mightily (was one of the games in the current MAME challenge too), hence it being high up on my list.

Advance Wars should be higher.

Predictably Bubble Bobble was high on my list. I think that's 2, maybe 3 of my choices so far.

Civ 4, perhaps. No-one in their right mind would vote for 3.

I felt that the Civ games can be largely treated as a whole. I think I voted for the first one for its groundbreaking nature. Plus I've only played that, 3 and Revolutions on the DS. Actually I used to play Civ 2 a bit on PSP.

Curiosity · **Posted:** Thu Jun 25, 2009 9:52

I voted for Civ 4, though I didn't sink nearly as much time into it as the others.

Probably should have voted for Civ 2, though there's an argument (for later) to bundle all 4 together.
