Re: Best Old School Video Game of All Time; Round of 32
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Civilization shouldn't get knocked out first round, it ain't right :/ [/ QUOTE ] It got a really bad first round seed, I think I might make this double elimination [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] I think that you came up with a solid concept but you need to narrow it down to PC games vs PC games and Console games vs. Console games, maybe even whittle it down into genre. |

Re: Best Old School Video Game of All Time; Round of 32
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] This is pretty weak. [/ QUOTE ] What is, the poll, the seeding, or the results? Or, "durron597 is a totally lame poster". [/ QUOTE ] all I heard was "troll". [/ QUOTE ] Who are you? Wait, don't answer, just be quiet. Durron597 is a great poster, but this isn't a great poll. There are too many games that qualify as old school to really make a decent poll on it. You would have to narrow it down some. Some of these are not even the best games in their respective series' (Castelvania, Super Mario 3). And I think random seeding really ruins the purpose of these tournament style polls. It would be much better as a free for all. Good idea, weak execution I say. |

There are too many games that qualify as old school to really make a decent poll on it. [/ QUOTE ] Agree, in retrospect. [ QUOTE ] Castelvania [/ QUOTE ] Never played it, but remember it had to be 1994 or earlier. [ QUOTE ] Super Mario 3 [/ QUOTE ] This is a matter of opinion, it's certainly close. [ QUOTE ] And I think random seeding really ruins the purpose of these tournament style polls. [/ QUOTE ] This is your best objection. The problem is that there were so many good games that I was going to have trouble seeding them, and people would have bitched about the seeding... I spent enough time coming up with the list of games, meh. You're probably right. I'll work on rearranging the matches for the round of 16 and I'll make it double elimination, in an attempt to give the good games with bad seeding a chance to do better (like Civilization). [ QUOTE ] It would be much better as a free for all. [/ QUOTE ] Disagree [ QUOTE ] Good idea, execution could be better. [/ QUOTE ] I'd agree with this statement. |

[/ QUOTE ] The only way you could have executed this better would have taken too long, and been cumbersome (i.e. a poll about which mario game was better, which castlevania was better) or multiple polls about genres and then people would bitch more... I say stick with it. |

Re: Best Old School Video Game of All Time; Round of 32
Punch out, Super Mario Cart, Zelda, and Civilization all should be winners. This is tough.

The fact that Dune 2 is getting so little love is making me very sad. a)So much fun. b)Look what it unleashed.

Re: Best Old School Video Game of All Time; Round of 32
The crazy thing is that there are a ton of really good important games that arent listed, but hey you gotta feel for durron, this type of thing is so hard to put all together while minimizing bitching.
kudos. |
