Title: TOP TEN PCE CD SURVEY
Post by: Sinistron on April 25, 2008, 04:33:16 AM
Alright this here's my companion survey to my top ten hucards one (winners of which can be found again here http://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=4745.0).  We had 29 voters turn out for the hucard one- let's see if we can beat that- so please stop playing the wall gentlemen/svelt women.  That goes for you shout-box only cats as well.  Show some balls, or ovaries, or whatever.
There have been top ten CD threads before here- but to my knowledge none have been tallied up- and I'd like to tally one up the same way I did the other one.

Rules are simple! 
Poll's open for two weeks just like the last one.
Must list ten PCECD (CD, SCD, ACD, etc.) games in number order- 1 being the best-
If you're gonna say "I don't have a top ten" then there's really no reason in posting  -
If you haven't for whatever reason played ten PCECDs then fill in using which ones "look" the best-
Please do not list a game on your top ten more than once!
Unless agreed upon radical differences- the japanese versions and American versions (given there's both) will be tallied as the same title-
No honorable mentions or anything of the like-
Think this through! It may help to actually look at your Cds or list of Cds.  Please do not laboriously give me ten different games in ten different posts- that will only make this more time consuming when it comes to tallying-

Finally -- take everything into consideration- fun, nostalgia, graphics, sound & music, etc...

RANKING ADDENDUM
The top ten will be determined by rank points- 10 points for 1st place picks, 9 points for 2nd place picks and so on.  I don't like ties- so if there are ties within the top ten then the game with more appearances on posters' lists will be ranked above the one or however many it has "tied" with.

that said- here's mine (this was difficult- but I'll go with what I came up with)...


1- Castlevania Dracula X
2- Lords of Thunder
3- Ys Books I & II
4- Star Parodia
5- Sapphire
6- Dungeon Explorer II
7- Rainbow Islands
8- Gate of Thunder
9- Gradius II: Gofer
10- Spriggan

Actually feel free to change your lists up since I won't be tallying until this one's over.  I'm changing my own.  Just gave GOT some looong deserved playing time- for the strangest of reasons I only played it twice since having it  :oops:- it definitely belongs on my top ten.  :)

alright- another entry!

That's nine so far people.  Pitiful.  Let's see some more eh?  If you already made a top ten CD list for another thread- then why not just copy and paste it into here?  This is gonna be tallied up remember.  However if it stays at this pitiful amount then it won't be worth tallying.  :P
Title: Re: TOP TEN PCE CD SURVEY
Post by: Game and Watch Kirby on May 01, 2008, 06:45:18 PM
It took me a bit to think up of which CD games to put up on the list, but here are the ones that I've chosen to be on this top ten:

1. Star Parodier
2. Lords of Thunder
3. Gate of Thunder
4. Exile
5. Shadow of the Beast
6. Tengai Makyou: Fuun Kabuki Den
7. Snatcher
8. Dracula X: Rondo of Blood
9. Super Air Zonk
10. Fighting Street

I haven't been exposed to too many CD games that would make me interested in having (let alone being able to play with a TurboGrafx CD), so these ten should portray my thoughts quite well.

Post by: Sinistron on May 06, 2008, 04:06:19 AM
BTW- ten posters is pretty pitiful- so I'm stretching out the deadline here.  Perhaps once we get at least 25 voters I'll tally it up.   :D

Well this is pretty amusing coming from the pollmeister hisself-
it's also a worthless, pointless post...
but again- if you already made a top ten CD list I suggested that you cut and paste it here- as I'm actually tallying these- which makes this a bit different from any other top ten pce CD "surveys" there may have been here.  :-"
Your vote can matter man!  :o

I agree necro. It boggles my mind why NEC would manufacture a mouse for the PCE, yet not make it compatible with games that would be well served to utilize it.  :-k I actually have a copy of it sitting on my desk. I'm sort of interested in seeing how it plays, though I know it will be very primitive.

I'll take it that Guyjin meant Ys I & II...

See Guyjin this is exactly why you were needed- I was wondering why Cosmic Fantasy II was so far down on the tally...  It needed a somewhat more respectable placing...
