Re: Best Old School Video Game of All Time; Round of 32
these were tough matchups for me:
Super Mario Brothers 3 v. The Secret of Monkey Island not because it's really a question, but because I love the secret of monkey island and hated seeing it go down. Final Fantasy III (VI) Castlevania the idea of FF3/VI going down to this crap makes me cry. Dragon Warrior Sim City 2000 I played and liked both. in general this poll is making me emotional. |

Re: Best Old School Video Game of All Time; Round of 32
OK, cool, I offer to set it up after the current "best" polls are through. Pre-NES is definitely the guideline, Pong and up. We've already had a couple of good threads about those ultra-old games.

[ QUOTE ] Putting Chrono Trigger vs TSB also sucks. [/ QUOTE ] How is that even close? You are comparing a _football game_ to one of the greatest RPGs of all time? A game with awesome character development, storyline, dialogue, and very rich gameplay to a game where you try to move your 16 pixel guys past the other 16 pixel guys? I mean come on. Sports games have their place in the industry but this matchup should be nowhere near close. Edit: Wow just saw the results on this one so far. All I can say is that there is obviously a huge population of [censored] jocks whose favorite game of all time is Halo in OOT. There really is no point in continuing this tournament any further because it is obvious that a huge portion of these people simply have no taste in video games whatsoever. [/ QUOTE ] but see, when I said it, I didnt sound like such a nerd. honestly, I dont get it, but hey, different strokes for different folks. btw, all-time classic best idea ever uber-oldschool game was galaga. period, end of damn subject. |

Honestly I'm not too concerned about it. |

[/ QUOTE ] Well, some of us aren't voting on the uber-geek scale of game craftsmanship, we're just voting on which games we had the most fun playing. TSB [censored] rules to play against friends. Having a season with a bunch of friends in high school taking each team, while demanding, is probably my greatest videogame memory. |

Chrono Trigger losing in the first round in retarded. [/ QUOTE ] and FF6 losing just kinda tips this into irrelevancy, since the original castlevania was a total piece of crap. |

Re: Best Old School Video Game of All Time; Round of 32
day of the tentacle is one of the greatest games of all time, old school or not
a lot of games will be blown out unfairly because of a lack of exposure |
