Damn it I didnt get a chance to vote . Oh and someone said somewhere in this thread about remaking a game, well if speedball 2 remake is anything to go by good old games should be left at just that, talking about speedball 2 i hope it made the list, gotta go find the list now.

If you are quick you might still get your nominations in. I am definitely going to be closing stage one this week and moving it on to stage two though.

OK. Stage One is now closed for voting. We have had a load of great games nominated in the first stage.

375 different games have been nominated in total.

Out of these, based on the number of times each game was nominated we currently have a rough top 10 favourite games of all time as follows:

1, Syndicate (14 votes)
2, The Secret of Monkey Island (13)
3, Cannon Fodder (12)
4, Flashback (12)
5, Pinball Fantasies (12)
6, Speedball II: Brutal Deluxe (12)
7, Lemmings (11)
9, Project X (10)
9, SWOS 96-97 (10)
10, The secret of Monkey Island 2 (10)

So, already we have a nice rough top 10 with some great games included, based on just the number of nominations. Obviously many of those share the same number of nominations so are not in a final order.

I've now compiled a spreadsheet containing all of the games, along with the number of times each was nominated. If you are interested in seeing the complete list I've attached the spreadsheet in excel format.

I will now begin working on Stage Two.

True classics, but what did you expect

I've had a look at the excel list and i've noticed that Giana sisters is there 3 times but with diferent writings and captions...

122 - Giana Sisters
321 - The great Giana sisters
322 - The Great Gianna Sisters

I love those sisters

[Harrison]

Ah, cheers for spotting that. I've combined those into a single entry and re-uploaded the excel file. I also noticed The Lost Vikings still had two entries too, so combined them as well.

If any of you spot any more let me know as it is hard to spot all of the similar entries in such a big list.

Just noticed "Jamping Jack Son" should be Jumping and also i think you missed out ROTR. Someone must've voted for that.

[Harrison]

Corrected that error. Cheers.

ROTR? Sorry I'm tired and my brain can't work that one out.

If it's not on the list then it wasn't nominated. I copied and pasted everyone's lists into excel, data sorted them into alphabetical order, and then tidied and merged all the same entries to create the list, so everything nominated is in there.

[Buleste]

Surely you remember the beat em up to end all beat em ups. Rise Of The Robots!!! I would have thought someone nominated that superb game.

[Harrison]

Ah! Maybe Teho just completely forgot to include the most sentimental game in his Amiga collection.
