    A straight tie between Resident Evil 4 and Half Life 2 for me. It was hard enough breaking it down to just those two believe me!

    My apologies if your favoured game isn't on the list, I tried my best!

    Edit: Oh FFS. All that effort and I end up forgetting HL2 :(

    Look, you cant do a poll on this sort of thing. You just cant. Not on vBulletin. You get what, 25 picks out of several hundred? A thousand? And look youve gone and made it stupid by filling up options with sequels and other bull****. I dont see Guitar Hero. I dont see Metroid, I dont see Street Fighter or Burnout or Gran Turismo or Zone of the Enders or Final Fantasies 9 or 10 and above or the Ace Combat series....Soul Calibre, Tony Hawk, Perfect Dark, Windwaker, KOTOR, Little Big Planet, Madden NFL, Chrono Cross....

    Shall I continue?

    Metacritic results: Consoles, excluding handhelds and PC; Sorted by Rating; All Time


    So several thousand titles and youve tried to list 25 off the top of your head in an attempt to make a balanced poll on the discussion? Yeah. That'll work :pac:

    Yes, I want to know the name of every single option that's missing. You have until 05:00GMT.

    **** that: See link.

    Oh and this one filters by release date too: http://apps.metacritic.com/search/process?ty=3&ts=&tfs=game_all&sb=5&game_platform=DRM&game_platform=CUBE&game_platform=N64&game_platform=PSX&game_platform=PS2&game_platform=PS3&game_platform=wii&game_platform=XBX&game_platform=xbox360&release_date_s=01%2F01%2F2000&release_date_e=&x=19&y=16&metascore_s=&metascore_e=

    So thats All console games, sorted by rating, released since january 1st, 2000. Go nuts. theres about 6400 results :)

    Jesus, give the guy a break, he did but an "Other (please state)" option.

    That should easily cover all the other games that were launched.

    For example, the poll shows Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. That's obviously the Wii version.

    If you wanted to vote for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, you click other.

    Simple.

    You do not have a clue.

    Please, SOMEONE lock this abomination.

    The list is a bit random, isn't it?? :)

    Daysha - we'll be doing several ".... of the Decade" awards in this year's game awards (should be fun to tally the nominations!). Watch this space just after Christmas.
