Re: "Favorite" Video Game Tournament Round #1/Group #6 Poll

#24 Super Metroid (SNES)
- My favorite SNES game. I will vote for this against almost anything.

#25 Tetris (Multi)
Soooo adictive.

#8 Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (PS)
Still pretty today and the precurser to all those great GBA/DS Metroidvania games.

#4 GoldenEye (N64)
This was a little tougher for me as I generally think GoldenEye has not aged well at all. I did have to go with it though as I probably played this game more than any other in college and I have very fond memories.

#84 Toejam & Earl
One of my favorite Genesis games.

Re: "Favorite" Video Game Tournament Round #1/Group #6 Poll

Super Metroid - my #1
Tetris - too many hours logged to vote against it
Castlevania: SOTN - benchmark in the series
Goldeneye - College = Pizza. Goldeneye.
Toejam & Earl - one of the best co-op games ever.

Re: "Favorite" Video Game Tournament Round #1/Group #6 Poll

I voted for the following:

Super Metroid - One of the best 16-bit games ever.
Tetris - Every time I think I'm sick of this game, it pulls me right back in.
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night - The best PS1 game ever.
Goldeneye 007 - Sure the game may look like crap now, but it's still one of the best FPS I've ever played.

Re: "Favorite" Video Game Tournament Round #1/Group #6 Poll

#24 Super Metroid (SNES)
Vs.
#41 Beyond Good and Evil (multi)

I loved BG&E, but Super Metroid is one of my top-5 games of all time.


#25 Tetris (Multi)
Vs.
#40 Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind (Multi)

I also loved Morrowind, but eventually got bored by it, although I still play Tetris on occasion.


#8 Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (PS)
Vs.
#72 Sam & Max (PC)

SotN is among my top-10 games of all time.


#4 GoldenEye (N64)
Vs.
#68 Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (GEN)

GoldenEye, while not the first FPS I ever played, it was the first one with variable missions and insanely fun multi-player - while it may not have held up too well, and right now, I'd probably rather throw in Sonic2, GoldenEye is too much of a mile-stone to ignore.


#20 Gears of War (360)
Vs.
#84 Toejam & Earl (Genes)

Gears is such a fun, crunchy game - it's essentially “Videogames: The Videogame”.
