    bit of a love hate relationship with C&C.
    played it to death with my mate at lunch break, resulting in us being constantly late back and getting detention :o

    And we are left with

    1. Castlevania
    and
    2. Command and Conquer.

    I'm not sure anyone could have predicted these results.

    ChronoTrigger comes from nowhere!!!!

    Umm nobody killed Chrono Trigger?

    I'm gonna go back in time, shake hands with Hitler and prevent C&C Red Alert from getting in that poll. IT'S DEAD.

    Really like the game just not as much as the other two left.

    I declare a mistrial.

    EDIT by the way, looking at what is left the clear winner now is Sys Shock 2. If it doesn't win I've lost all faith in this forum.

    Um...you do realize that by saying this, you guaranteed that SS2 would get killed next, don't you?

    I assumed common sense would have prevailed over base emotion. I was wrong.

    Ok.
    As shocking as a WWE turn we now have

    Chrono Trigger vs Castlevania.

    Can one of the Admins reset/edit the poll to reflect the new final entrants ? Retro

    You can't except a kill shot after voting has started. Make it a three way poll

    I can't edit the poll buddy. That's the point.
    I'm fine with Chrono being added and it being a 3-way poll.

    Castlevania

    Chrono Trigger

    How did Command and Conquer last so long, it's basically StarCraft but not as good.

    Chrono Trigger
    It's a great game. I'd put it above Starcraft

    Philistine!

    So C&C is just Starcraft for white people? :p
    Command & Conquer had Tim Curry & Ric Flair appear in the series. That goes a long way to the hearts some.

    James Earl Jones was there in Tiberian Sun and lets not forget Kari Wuhrer as Tanya.

    Yo Retro, ChronoTrigger is meant to be in there but I am unable to edit the poll.
    Was asking if you or a mod could possibly modify or change the poll.

    Not sure it would make much of a difference though.

    Poll is closed....all hail Zod and the might C&C that won somehow.

    Anyways, well played all.

    I'll leave it open for someone else to create the next one, or if noone does then I'll do it next week or so.

    Maybe leave suggestions below for anyone making the next one,

    I'd say 'PS1 games / Sega Megadrive / NES / Game Characters '

    Justice for Chrono Trigger!

    Never realised there was so much love for Command and Conquer. Always seemed like a duller version of Warcraft or Starcraft to me.

    Warcraft wasn't on the list, so we'll never know for sure. There was also no Civ game, and criminally no Alpha Centauri either.

    RTS' consumed my playtime, Warcraft C&C Civ Alpha. Played Starcraft but for me it would be last on my all time RTS list. I loved C&C. I got my hands on every C&C game released.

    I long for an old school RTS release.

    More familiar setting and true to life abilities & circumstances, as well as a savage Industrial/Electronic/Rock soundtrack made it very likeable in the 90's.

    And don't forget the wonderfully camp FMV sequences in the campaigns.

    I don't think there was, just the fact that it survived till the end because people killed off other things for the hell of it :P

    Doom was in the last 4, I thought it was clearly gonna win...but some people just wanna watch the world burn :P

    So **** starcraft wins over a possible contender for best game ever made. I guess people also voted for Brexit and Donald Trump.
