BOF's Top Video Games: 2014 Edition (Submission Deadline- 9/28) | Stickied here until the end of the month

[4815162342]

As I suggested and what several agree would be good, I have set up this thread for us to create a Top Video Games list for BOF. How big the final list will be I am not sure, it depends on how many lists are submitted and how many games are on the lists.

You can submit (via PM) lists of 25, 50, 75, or if you dare, 100 games. The scoring for those three options will be as follows:

List of 25

1- 100
2. 90
3. 80
4. 70
5. 60
6-8- 50
9-12- 40
13-16- 30
17-20- 20
21- 15
22- 10
23- 5
24- 3
25- 1

List of 50

1- 100
2- 95
3- 90
4- 85
5- 80
6- 75
7- 70
8- 65
9- 60
10- 50
11-15- 45
16-20- 40
21-25- 35
26-30- 30
31-35- 25
36-40- 20
41-43- 15
44-46- 10
47- 8
48- 5
49- 3
50- 1

List of 75

1- 100
2- 98
3- 95
4- 93
5- 90
6- 88
7- 86
8- 84
9- 82
10- 80
11- 77
12- 74
13- 71
14- 68
15- 65
16- 62
17- 59
18- 56
19- 53
20- 50
21-25- 46
26-30- 42
31-35- 38
36-40- 34
41-45- 30
46-50- 25
51-55- 20
56-60- 15
61-65- 10
66-68- 8
69-71- 5
72- 4
73- 3
74- 2
75- 1

List of 100
1- 100
2-99
3- 98
...
100- 1


So the scoring range incentivizes you to make as long lists as you can. I may include an option for a 75-game list if people want to list more than 50 but can't quite get to 100.

Also, while I want you to PM your lists to me, feel free to share them in this thread as well.

One final thing, since 2014 is incomplete, all 2014 games are ineligible! If we do this again next summer, then 2014 games can be included.


If anyone has any questions about procedure for the lists, please ask.


Deadline is Sunday, September 28th, late night, Eastern Standard Time

Have at it.

So question about the Pokemon games, should we group Red/Blue, Gold/Silver, Ruby/Sapphire together or as separate games? Since they're basically the same game I think they should be grouped together but It's your call numbers.

Each Generation is its own game.

 

R/B/Y

G/S/C

R/S/E

FR/LG

etc

I think the 3rd game in each gen should be separated though. Y/C/E are pretty different from the other two games.

I consider them the equivalent of expansion packs. Same core game, gameplay, story, etc, just with new features added in.

 

 

 

Pink remember to PM me your list por favor.

[The Stingray]

46. Half Life (I'm going to be honest, it's in my top 25, but somehow I skipped it and don't feel like shifting everything)

 

Lazy bum.

[4815162342]

Games I have I want to try and cram in before the deadline, though I know I can't get to them all (or even half):Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, Baldur's Gate, Baldur's Gate II, Bioshock Infinite, Borderlands, Borderlands 2, Company of Heroes 2, Dark Souls, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Endless Space, Fallout, Fallout 2, Final Fantasy VII, Galactic Civilizations II, Metro 2033, Metro: Last Light, Mount and Blade, Secret of Monkey Island, Stronghold Series To the Moon, Torchlight, Torchlight II, X-COM: Enemy Unknown

 

 

I am sadly hamstrung by the fact that the graphics devices on the PC I have (my family's old one) aren't that top, so some of the Steam games I have will probably not run well, if at all. Plus the fact I do have time obligations during the week.

Remember to PM your lists to me. That way it is easy for me to keep track of them all and if you update you can post the updated list in the PM conversation.

[The Stingray]

Yo Numbers, at some point I think we should try to pin this in the main box office forum (I'm sure the mods wont mind) and/or maybe you can put it in your sig as well, to get some traction, get the word of mouth going. Just a suggestion.
