I might choose it when I play it. But I'm not gonna put a game on my list I haven't played just for the hype! And 2210 AD is actually pretty fun.

ps, thanks for putting that you opened pack a in your thread title so I knew when to stop casually reading

I move that that annoying possibility of, say, a dnd 3.5 v dnd 3 etc matchup alone should cause us to lump them all together as one nomination. That, and the fact that they're all basically the exact same thing.

I'm fine with Dungeons and Dragons being one thing, it's just if DND 4 is up there I want 3.5 up there cause I like it better. 3.5 is just 3 but not unbalanced iirc.
