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

[/ QUOTE ]

It's widely respected as starting the RTS genre, but the thing is, I never met anyone who ever played it. It seemed to spend very little time in the public eye. I think it's one of those unsung heroes, except by the cognoscenti.

oh my goodness... Punch-out v. Mario Kart and Chrono Trigger v. Tecmo Super Bowl are brutal. All 4 of those games are in the top echelon of my all-time greatest list.

i am going to have nightmares about this,

zelda rep should be ocarina
super mario rep should be super mario world

agreed on both counts... but i also have to give a nod to mario 64. i know that 3d games get knocked by lots of old-school gaming fans (myself included) but mario 64 is totally amazing.

How is that even close? You are comparing a _football game_ to one of the greatest RPGs of all time?

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.

this is typical nerd fodder and is also utter horsesh*t. chrono trigger is my favorite RPG of all-time and i definitely picked it over tecmo super bowl. however, tecmo super bowl was way ahead of it's time as far as sports games go and was simply a fantastic game. it deserves to be in the contest.

sadly for chrono trigger more people don't know what it is. and like tetris, everyone knows tecmo bowl. so while on one hand i agree with you re: CT &gt; TSB. i can't let you blast TSB either [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

p.s. halo sucks

That the original Zelda for NES is not on here makes me sad.

HOW IN THE [censored] IS DRAGON WARRIOR LOSING TO SIM CITY 2000?

[/ QUOTE ]

Thank you.

This is ridiculous. Obviously the average OOTiot is 12 and has never owned an NES.

There is no way that Dragon Warrior can lose against Sim City 2000. Sorry.
