Not only that the Xbox version is probably the best Arcade to Console port ever.

Let us not get silly now Hugo, there have been many better arcade ports. I don't recall any screen tearing in the arcade like I saw on the Xbox.

I can't remember any screen tearing, certainly nothing worth mentioning. The fact they got a game designed for system with 512MB of RAM running almost perfectly on one with just 64MB is an achievement in itself.

Its the OutRun Challenge mode that really takes the conversion into greatness though.

Just realised, I have mod powers now, I don't need to sit by and let the wrong games go through

But all your votes are wrong

I was tempted to change everyone's votes to Skies of Arcadia, but it wouldn't be right.

Thats in 'the most boring group ever'™ right?

When he's right, he's right

I was expecting some comment from H, but he still gets some points for effort.

Not that you've even played it.

I have actually played Skies of Arcadia. Probably my second favourite RPG ever...

...doesn't stop that group being dull as hell though.

I'm not sure what to believe any more.

I'd consider the Galaxy group to be dull as the winner is as clear as day, but I'm not sure who'll win the Skies group, which makes it more interesting. Although you might be talking about the games within the group, I'm not sure. I wouldn't call it dull, considering it has some true greats in it.

The games, theres nothing in the least surprising in the group. No Viewtiful Joe, no Shadow of the Colossus, no Katamari, no Rez like games, sure there are some good games in there (and some terrible ones actually), but theres nothing in the slightest interesting about the group. The closest it gets is Demon's Souls...but even that doesn't have the real wow interesting factor for me.

Sucks for PSO.

It genuinely was one of the most important games of the decade.

Still, I'd rather people vote based on their own experiences and not based on reputation.

I put over 400 hours into the Dreamcast version, at least that again on Gamecube and another 200 on PC Could actually be my GOTD due to how many hours I played that game.

Moderator votes count for double.

Shame PSO went out. It really was a very important console release. Curse of the Dreamcast I suppose.

Outrun 2 I've never 'got', but I knew Suzz and Hugo would have something to say about that.

I think two days is long enough for voting, at this stage it's not too crucial to get everyone voting seeing as 4 games go through.

Baldur's Gate 2 is going to do suspiciously well I feel.

Why have I missed B & C

I just added to C hope it counts

I missed my chance to vote for Skies of Arcadia

Voting stops when the threads are locked so you're fine. I'll tally and post the next groups later today

Cool, although I missed B

Has Deus Ex won yet?

Let me know when it has.
