That took me some time But for you gamers, anything
I'm sure there are a lot more series similar in competition to these which you may suggest but to be honest, at this stage my fingers hurt. oO)
So what will it be? The sheer storyline of The Legend of Zelda? The Amazing Series of Pokemon? or The Biggest Games of Today such as GTA or Call of Duty's. You Decide My Friends

I missed a few, wil update them now for you. I've missed some Resident Evil titles aswell. Thanks for the spot Poll has been added, get voting guys! (A)

 

[satanasangel]

I voted Final Fantasy....then I saw GTA. I would of voted for that otherwise d'oh!

 

[come on urzzz]

what is legend of zelda?

 

[Billy]

The Final Fantasy series has given me the most enjoyment and replayability, so it gets my vote.

I prefer the older titles in the series, granted, but I still enjoy the storyline of each of the titles that Square release.

Final Fantasy VII, VIII, IX and X all appear in my top 10 favourite games to date, so an easy decision to make.

I struggled to pick one, they are all amazing. I finally voted for Legend of Zelda. Those games were my childhood They were amazing, its a very close match though! ^^)

Can someone edit the pole? I'd lke to ad Age of Empires, Metal Gear Solid and maybe some Mario franchises, although they have loads of add on franchises.

 

[Jake]

i would, but its not in my section, i have no powers

 

[Deleted member 79730]

eclipse?

 

[JDY]

Pokemon definately.

I actually feel sorry for the kids born post 95' who haven't experienced Pokemon in it's prime, (not that battlefront **** thats on nowdays).

Other than that, GTA has always been one for me, except the huge disapointment of GTA 4.

As for Call of Duty, i think it will be a while before it can consider itself as being the best.

 

[Deleted member 79730]

pokemon is a beast, the original pokemon were the best, now they brought in a load of new **** ones, absolutely awful

 

[Kylo]

Hopefully we can get a moderator or Sean to edit the poll.

Need for Speed, The Sims, FIFA, Football Manager, Tom Clancy and Spyro will hopefully be added soon. That should be enough, the biggest ones are up there, any others will be considered but that should cover the best. Thanks for comments and votes, keep them coming and give us your thoughts!

I feel i should have played Final Fantasy now. oO)

 

[Div_Muzza]

Tough call but got to go for GTA.

 

[Redrup]

Final Fantasy for sure, countless hours went towards XIII, IX and X in particular.

Loved my Blitzball team.

 

[Kylo]

No votes for Resident Evil is a suprise, I loved some of those.

The story for Final Fantasy X is what made it a top quality Square game for me. The lack of a free-roaming World Map system (which could be found in its predecessors) took away a key element of exploration, in my opinion. The storyline though was the saving grace of the game, and the ending was rather emotional. :wub:

Some good additions for the poll there, FourFourTwo, but I'd still vote Final Fantasy. I'd say my collective hours spent on the FF series is possibly in the thousands mark (I've played all of them except for XI).
