[Mojo2004]

Welcome to Round I, Poll III of the greatest video game ever.


Just as a reminder, this is how the polls will work:

Round 1 - 5 polls of 9 - Winning 2 games go through to round 2
Round 2 - 2 polls of 5 - Winning 2 games go to round 3
Round 3 - 2 polls of 2 - Winning game from each poll go through to final
Round 4 - Final - Win or lose

Hope you all enjoy, each poll is open for 4 days, as a week proved too long

Currently in the running are

Ocarina or time
Final Fantasy VII
Halo

There was a draw for runner up in poll 2, so i'm going to do a poll for the two runners up in the next day or 2 :thumb:

[Burdcheese]

Half-Life.

End of Story.

[Ganondorf]

Mario Kart


(crap, I didn't see Half Life there)

[Mojo2004]

Half-Life.

End of Story.
that one quick story...

4 days cool with everyone?

[red barchetta]

4 days = cool

SSBM better go through... its one of the few recent games that deserves to be the greatest. if halo 2 goes through, and the final is halo vs halo 2, i'll cry...

what were the games that were joint 2nd?


i thought you said mario 3 was in the same poll as link to the past :confused:
or was it mario 64?

[Esp Griffyn]

I went for halo II, because it is a far superior game :evil:

[Rancid Dan]

Which Mario Kart is it ?

[forthepeopleofthesun]

Half-Life.

[Rancid Dan]

Super Mario Bros 3.

[Stinko Man]

Pokemon.

[Amorpha]

I went for Pokemon before I noticed Mario 3 :upset:

[Gnarmageddon]

It was close between Silent Hill and Half Life, but I voted Half Life.

[Robdrummer]

Lets just be honest. How many hours did you spend playing Pokemon when you got it? Id say if i wasnt eating or sleeping(well i actually played it when i was supposed to be sleeping) i was at least playing it while doing some else.

[Turkish]

Wow, you put every single amazing game on this Poll and like, none on the last one.


my vote goes to Silent Hill

[woodsinho]

Toughy, Silent Hill or Diablo 2.

and the weiner is..... diablo 2, congratulations blizzard. For a game that's been around for years it's still great to play and has a huge online community playing it so it wins my vote.

[Smackers]

Half life, it's my second favorite game ever.

[Let's Chop Cats!]

Mario Kart, Pokemon, Half Life or Super Mario 3.

Hardest choice of my life. I went Mario kart.

[Bel Acres]

Super Smash Bros. Melee with honourable mention to Mario Kart, Super Mario 3, and Pokemon.

[Your Mom, B*tch]

Super (I assume) Mario Kart is my favorite from those.

[ZaaR]

You're a cruel man. Pokemon, Mario Kart, both Half-Lifes, and Super Smash Brothers Melee all in the same poll. This will take me awhile to decide.

[3074326]

Although Halo 2 is my favorite game, Half-Life is a better game in general.

Half-Life gets my vote.

[ZaaR]

I ended up voting for Super Smash Brothers because it needed the most help.

[Pazz]

I had to vote Pokemon because I own all their gameboy colour games and if I had a gameboy advance I would own more. Pokemon deserves it.

[Danish]

GTA III! Are you people retarded? That game is far and away Top 3 all time. Way better than Halo, way better than Half Life, way better than Mario Kart.

[CaptainWaits]

GTA III is really the only gam I like up there

[Kurtz]

GTA III. The first time I played it I couldn't believe how much freedom I had.

Mario Kart on N64 brings back some awesome memories though.

[Ganondorf]

The two gams that tied in the previous poll were

The Legend of Zelda : Majora's Mask

Grand Theft Auto - Vice City

[^Dream~Theater^]

Why do you even put Halo in these polls? All the game does is attract the millions of fanboys.

[Clunge]

GTA III is really the only gam I like up there

same here - havent played halo 2 yet tho

[JAStewart]

Gta3.

[JAStewart]

Why do you even put Halo in these polls? All the game does is attract the millions of fanboys.


Its true. People will vote on it because its their favourite game at the moment. It sucks.

[Mojo2004]

ok time for me to answer your main questions...

i thought you said mario 3 was in the same poll as link to the past

no mario 64 is in the same poll

Which Mario Kart is it ?

The original i presume...all the nomination were for "mario cart", so that the assumption (i think, couldnt check the spreadsheet offhand)

You're a cruel man.

indeed i am, but you all love me for it right! anyway poll 1 was just as harsh

Why do you even put Halo in these polls? All the game does is attract the millions of fanboys

hey...it's the nominations that got it in, you mxcians nominated enough, so i put it in the poll

[metalman5000]

i had to vote for gta 3 mudda ****az as it is better than the others except for half-life.

[Rancid Dan]

I wish i voted Mario Kart now instead of Mario 3 because Kart has a chance of catching up with the leaders and unfortunately Mario 3 doesn't look like it does.

[jaymz_is_god]

GTA III is really the only game I like up there

Same here. I still play it from time to time.

[Jom]

SSMB is a great party game, so I went with it... although I like eight of the nine games up there :p

[Adam Jones is GOD]

Diablo 2. Simply because its the game out of those i've clocked up the most hours on, which must mean I enjoy playing it more than the others

[Mojo2004]

why is half life not winning?

[shadow_stalker]

half life no question

[red barchetta]

and unsurprisingly, halo 2, half life and gta are winning... they sure are 'great' games...half life's good though

[shortass]

halo 2

[-Listy-]

That was easy, cmon Half Life!

[OperationWalrus]

HALO 2!!! Best game ever created!

Pokemon is probably the most addictive game in existence but Halo 2 beats it by a long shot. I can't believe you have so much high ranking games in this poll but not much in the last one. It will suck if something undeserving gets through from another poll when this one has so much titans in it.

[DoktorShred]

Does half life include all its mods? If so, half life

EDIT: Changed mind to smash bros. Best game to play with friends. Ever.

[AMAC]

D2.

[CombatRock]

gta3

[Fatplum]

I was expecting for Chrono Trigger, but I went for Half-Life.

[Your Mom, B*tch]

Wish we had done it where you can pick 2 games instead of just 1. I think it woulda made these polls better. Still good polls though :thumb:

[killswitchlog]

ssbm is good, halo2 is good, smb3 is good, pokemon is good, half-life was so-so, the other games i'm not familiar with other than gta3, the onnly game i could sit and play for hours on end.

[Ramsey]

Halo 2 4evah

[Interstate]

Halo 2 for me.

[bassplaya1069]

Diablo 2

[Mojo2004]

i still don't get how half life is not winning...

[Spectrum]

I had a hard time deciding between several of these, but I just had to go for SSBM. It's just that fun of a game.

I wouldn't be so thrilled if GTA III went through. I think it's just a tad overrated, and I'm not really a fan of the GTA series anyway. Just personal opinion.

[JPP]

Personally i believe that the Nintendo 64's 'Glover' is the best game ever created by mankind.

[OperationWalrus]

C'mon get Halo 2 in there, it is so much better than GTA III

[Jonny Greenwood]

This was a really hard choice to pick, so I picked Diablo 2 because it is one of the few games that I have wasted my life on. :lol:

[Smackers]

Personally i believe that the Nintendo 64's 'Glover' is the best game ever created by mankind.

dude, that's awesome!

[Ganondorf]

When's the next poll coming?

[Rancid Dan]

now
