Rofl, give me a fucking break. This doesn't deserve to make the list at all, let alone 19th place. This was only chosen because of how recent of a release it was.

[AshfordPride]

So, are the pictures in ascending or descending order?

Did Halo win or did Super Smash Brothers Melee?

Obv. But if as many people vote for it than Link to the Past, FF3/6, Tetris and Kingdom Hearts *combined*, I can't not include it... we all know the BBS has a short term memory.

Will the lage picture posting ability eventually be passed on to us mere members in the form of a secret?

numbering the photos would of been good, i assumed golden eye won.

Does anybody here agree with me that Ain Hominid is the hardest game ever created?

It's not an unfun game, but it's not a game deserving of that much praise. For a game that revolves around utilizing AI to it's fullest, it doesn't do a very good job.

Well yeah, but I suck at image manipulation, even though it's actually quite easy even with paint.

FTR, Melee is #1, Halo is #5, FF7 is #6, Goldeneye is #10, everything else should be self-evident.

Alien Hominid* Me and my silly mispellings. I wish I knew how to type. :( hehe

[DaSadGirl]

Seems fair. Hoping that Zelda:OoT would of gotten first place. To me, SMB was good, but got kind of boring quickly. Blah...

Augh. 6/10 of my picks aren't even in the top 50%. But then again, I'm sure you got more than 70 different votes...eh. No wonder I didn't see my pikmin vote.

Hey, not bad, two of my top 10 are on the list. I'm suprised that Civ IV made it, there doesn't seem to be a solid Civ fan basis on NG. But it made it.

Civ III was better.

Do you honestly think "pretty good" makes a game worthy of mention as one of the greatest games of all time. Do you honestly think a game that reiterates a "pretty good" forumla for- what is it now?-the fourth or fifth time really deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as Mario 64 and Half-Life?

[ShitstormLX]

What no Dreamcast games?!?!?!?

SRSLY!!!! No fucking taste around here.

Civ IV is real fun, but something fucked up and now I cant play it.

I still play Civ III from time to time, though. :)

jonthomson, how did you add all of these up? If someone placed a game as their number on favorite, did you count that as something like 1, then their 10th favorite as .1, then add all of them up? Or did you just count them all up without bias to what place the users have the games set at?

I ask because I'd like to do something similar on another forum, and I want to know which way works the best. The first way would be more accurate, but it would take a while.

Something like that. I weighted it a little so that games that got votes from multiple users did a little better than those with comparable scores from less users.

[BMC714]

I'm actually kinda surprised that Melee made it on top. It seems like it's not a ground breaking game, but I guess the fun does come out in multiplayer...
