Well, if Pedrunn keeps advertising this thread the way he has I'm sure there's a couple of more people to find who will vote for the game There are at least 30 regular CtP2 players and only about half of them have voted so far.

But even if you're right, 3rd place is a hell of a lot better than not in the list, as was the case when I found this thread

[sings the tune from Mighty Mouse ] Here I come to save the day!!! Sorry for the cheese (no pun intended )

1. CTP
2. Civ
3. Caesar
4. Warcraft (even though I like EE better but just got it soooo...)
5. Madden Football (that's american football not "soccer" silly europeans )

Edit. Assuming that my math isn't faulty... that still leaves CTP one vote behind SMAC So Pedrunn Get to work

You guys are just giving me too much credit. I just started a warning thread in the CTP2 general forum about it a week and half ago.
And that was all.
The people came by themselves, I swear!!!

It doesn't matter how many votes you drum up for CTP, SMAC is still the better game



And I should know, because I've never played CTP

Heh. I had heard that and have the thing lying around somewhere. Pity about the AI though, or have the modding community been able to fix it?
Last time I poked my head in it was still sorely lacking, to put it mildly. Activision should have stuck to AI's they can understand, like pong perhaps...

Sorry for the delay in updating the list. Its final exams time for me.

But my last exam is in about 3 hours time, and I'll be updating the list when I get back. At this stage, I can say that CtP has regained 2nd place (just).

Yes, the AI is vastly improved in the various mods and the Craddle mod is considered as the most challenging though I have not yet tested it.

If my 1st post did not count.... i guess i have to follow, your rules..... But I Love HoMM, SMAC, and Civ2 equally....but if someone w/ a gun forced me to choose between them then it would be....

1. HoMM
2. SMAC
3. Civ2
4. HL
5. Starcraft

Your first post did count. If you love them equally, you can give them points equally.
I don't mind changing your vote to the one above, but I'm guessing you would prefer it in the previous form.
(And you managed to assign the right amount of points total - 25)

I'm having a feeling that I will sooner or later regret these selections... Oh well.

1 - Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, sadly underrated when it was published. (10 points)
2 - Heroes of Might and Magic (King's bounty) -series... no comments on this one (6 points).
3 - Split between X-Com -series (2 points) and Jagged Alliance -series (2 points).
4 - Civilization - Mainly because of Civ I, though, which was brilliant in its time. (2 points)
5 - Homeworld, a brilliant RTS with a truly unique atmosphere, considering the time it was created. (1 point)

And my honorary (great spelplink) mentions (no points) go to:
Thief
Master of Orion
Warlords
SimCity
Grand Theft Auto

From top to bottom... (to add suspense )

5. Anno 1602 (1 p)
I wanted to get this to the list because it's the first computer game I bought, and the first I got seriously addicted to.

4. Outcast (1 p) and X-COM series (1 p)
Outcast is a nice, well written adventure game. X-Com is... well, X-Com!

3. Fallout series (2 p) and Baldur's Gate series (2 p)
Excellent RPGs. You can't go wrong with Monty Python references.

2. Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri (6 p)
Best strategy game I've ever played, and the reason I'm stuck on Poly in the first place. Great source of fan fiction to write, too. MP, as rarely as I can enjoy it, is excellent.

And, finally...

1. Final Fantasy series (10 p)
Without a doubt. I've played these games for hundreds of hours. Immersive stories (I usually cry at the endings), great music (Uematsu is God), good gameplay.

Updated.

Tuomerehu and Kassiopeia, you both have 2 points available to assign to whatever you want.
Thief is a good series...
Let me know if you want to use those points for any series.

I do? I'll give 1 p to the System Shock series and 1 p to Xenogears then.

A good time for last orders would be 31 Dec 2002.

We could turn this into an annual event then.

I like that plan.

Although Civ would probably win every year.

Next year would have RON and MOO3 in it, though.

Updated.

For those who haven't voted yet, you have around 16 days left.

For those who have voted, how do you think the next version of this should be: Continue with the series votes, or vote for single games (such that a vote for Civilization 2 would be seperate from a vote for Civilization 3).

Good idea.

1. CTP
2. Pirates ( Arrgh! Those were the days )
3. Command & Conquer (Red Alert, of course)
4. Grand Theft Auto ( Not that I play the missions )
5. Defender of the Crown ( C64 & Amiga )

Best of the rest: Simcity, Warcraft, Starcraft, Goldeneye,
Wizball, Ultima, Diablo, Whack the Ewok, Red Lightning,
Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy, oh, and of course, Harpoon!



I probably have spent more time on Civ2 than most of the
games I voted for ( 38 hours straight, without amphetamines )
combined, but at this stage, what's the point of voting for it?
