Game top poll (1995-1997)
Previous game poll expired, so there is a time to create a new poll. I'll try to update the results every few days, but if i can not do it or if i'll be banned, Skanky Burns will help (something of this kind happened in the first game poll).

I decided to include 1995 year to the period just because it's period of 25Mb-100Mb games. There were some much larger games, but most of discspace they took was used for music/movies. Also it was the period, when realistic 3D game started to appear, and strategy games improved their AIs drastically.

You have 50 points and maximum 20 points per game. Name up to 8 games and give points to each of them. You cam change your vote by posting your new vote and asking for recalculating.

My vote:
X-Com:appocalypse- 20 points;
Heroes of M&M - 15 points
Ascendancy -15 points

im not real sure what was out in this period -

of games I bought and liked im thinking AOE and Simcity2000. And Civil War Generals2, I think. There are a few others ive played demos of and liked, but never bought for one reason or another (7Kingdoms, TOAW)
Again not sure about the release dates for those.

You can find release dates of the game on gamesites. IIRC, there is game database at gamespy.com

Duke 3D 10
Grand Prix 2 10 (stunningly beautiful graphics back in those days)
Age of Empires 10


It's a long time ago, so I don't remember all the games back then, but I remember playing these games massively..

btw was GTA1 released before '98? otherwise i'd give that one some points too

New!!! Poll !!!!

Game top poll (1825-1827)

Previous game poll expired, so there is a time to create a new poll. I'll try to update the results every few days, but if i can not do it or if i'll be banned, Skanky Burns will help (something of this kind happened in the first game poll).
I decided to include 1825 year to the period just because it's period of when both paper and ivory games came out.

Eli, Daz- maximum is 20 points per game.

Yes he does. First game series poll was initiated by me and calculated by Skanky, so you would better use other words.

Give me:

MOO2: 20
Duke Nukem 3d: 10
Final Fantasy VII: 20

Just for the record, if we could max our points out on one game, FFVII would get my fifty points. Best game ever made.

...ok, I'll give it a shot, hoping these games are released during that time:

- Syndicate Wars (20)
- Theme Hospital (15)
- SimCity 2000 (10)
- Conquest of the new World (5)


...and lots of other games, I'd like to vote for... 50 points is way too low

Don't get me wrong, Civ 2 is great, but doesn't compare to the fun of Starcraft.
