Fire Emblem was released in 1990 on the Famicom :?

When I drew the groups I noticed the first was lacking in star power and I was going to just swap it with another but seeing as it's a test run for voting systems and all that there doesn't seem much point

Is there going to be a wildcard round? I'd hate for one of my favourite games to get knocked out due to fierce competition. Not wanting to tell you how to do your thing though, just curious :shifty:

Polls can be rigged. That's how Eighty became a moderator remember.

Well realistically the most groundbreaking and revolutionary game this last decade was GTA 3. It pretty much invented 3d sandbox gaming and was had a lot of celebrity voices, huge gameplay, nice story and mission structure and at the time it looked awesome.

Most 3d action games borrow elements from it, and it kick started the fad of sandbox gaming which even now is abundant.

Im sure after weeks of these polls, it will be there or there abouts.


Good nomination. The rest of that massive list can be culled enormously.


My original plan was for 64 games :lol:

Nintendo Fanboys make me sick :evil: .
I wish they would join up with hardcore PC gaming nerds and bugger off!!!!!!!


Yes because you have to be a Nintendo fanboy to appreciate that OOT is the best game ever made :?

OOT is easily one of the best games ever made and I'm an Xbot. 8-)

Mocky did a great job with that.

We should migrate GRcade to Flarum. :toot:

Good to see Eternal Darkness love remains strong.

Suitable that ED and Dead Space are in the same category as they do a similar sort of thing, ED way better and with more imagination though 8-) :wub:

The more I play it the more I feel that Uncharted 2 is my favourite of the Decade either that or Final Fantasy XII even if just for the scale of the game

PLAY | Persona 3 Reloaded [3h]
WATCH | HiJack S1, Red Dwarf S7, Dexter S2
RACE | Chew Valley 10k (June), GNR (Sept), Cardiff Half (Oct)

If I could give Eternal Darkness a negative vote to brings its ranking down, I would. It's as bad an un-game as Farenheit.
