Those voting mk Wii are life's disappointments.

Excuse me, but with the dreadful handling and subpar courses on double dash, I wholeheartedly disagree.

[Matias]

It's worth noting that I would, however, vote 64 over Wii any day of the week purely for nostalgia's sake

Rayman

Sims 3
Warcraft 3

Why are people voting for Doom, when Doom 2 is the more polished game, with added enemies, and extra weapons? It's like saying you would rather read a book with half the pages torn out, or watch a TV show where half of the plot has been removed...

At least with Guitar Hero 2 getting votes over Warriors of Rock it's obvious people are going for song quality over gameplay.

Gameplay?

You mean GH3's loose timing window and inaccurate as shit rhythms?

[Matias]

Though I was questioning the same thing about people voting the Sims over sims 3.

GH Warriors Of Rock isn't GH3...

Warriors of Rock was really GH6, and actually had some use behind the characters beyond just images, that changed how you played when using them, and had some strategy when it came to the end of the game.

Oops, you're right. Its been forever since I heard the tagline of the titles, and to be fair, GH3 was Legends of Rock.

That being said, yeah, then its not a gameplay issue. I personally stopped playing at GH3 so I'm not so familiar with GH6's song list.

[Matias]

Oh please, if anything, this should cement my veteran status on Scorehero for playing the shit out of the first three (and actually having site-wide 1sts on a few songs) but totally ignoring anything past that.

By the way, if you don't know the majority of these games, do some research. Pretty much every title up for vote is a great game in their own ways.

Whew, thanks Quil.

Match 15:
Braid

Oh Psychonauts, how I would love to vote for you. But your stupid arrowhead system is ridiculous and I don't want to collect hundreds of them just to get the stupid cobweb duster so I can complete the game.

Psychonauts has the best and funniest story of any video game to my memory and you're complaining about the arrowhead system?

Oy.

None of this matters, because I believe that Portal is going to smash whatever wins in that matchup, and for very good reason.

But then again, opinions
