Click Here for Other Game Ranking Polls
Post your TOP FIVE real-time strategy games of all-time, IN ORDER (with #1 being your all-time fave). Be SPECIFIC. Don't list "Warcraft Series", tell me which one specifically (or you can of course put all three, but you'll have to rank them each separately). And remember this is for REAL-TIME STRATEGY games only, NOT turn-based. In other words, Starcraft yes, Civilization no. I will award 5 pts for 1st, 4 pts for 2nd, 3 pts for 3rd, 2 pts for 4th and 1 pt for 5th. As people add their top five, I will update this initial post, listing all games mentioned from the highest cumulative points down to the lowest. You may only vote once. If you want to go back and make changes, create a new post and indicate that you're changing your previous one. This will ensure I gather accurate numbers, otherwise I may miss your change. If I don't update the numbers in this initial post right away, don't worry, I'll get to it eventually. RANKINGS: [Name - Points (# of 1st place votes)] 1. Starcraft - 63 (9) 2. Command & Conquer: Red Alert - 41 (3) 3. Company of Heroes - 33 (3) 4. Warcraft III - 31 (1) 5. Age of Empires - 24 (2) 6. Starcraft: Brood War - 19 (1) 7. Warcraft II - 17 8. Age of Empires II - 16 9. Command & Conquer - 13 (2) 10. Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts - 9 (1) 11. Dune 2000 - 7 11. Rise of Nations - 7 11. Dark Reign: The Future of War - 7 11. Rome: Total War - 7 11. The Battle for Middle Earth - 7 16. Sid Meier's Gettysburg - 5 (1) 16. Ogre Battle: March of the Black Queen - 5 (1) 16. Stronghold: Crusader - 5 (1) 16.

QUOTE (Silverfox @ Apr 11 2008, 06:15 AM) "You're obviously both fantastically brilliant" ... yeah, rimx and clay are pretty important people around here. I heard that they both created the matrix, but don't take my word for it - or anyone elses for that matter - because it'll likely be ignored. QUOTE (d3bruts1d @ Dec 19 2008, 01:21 PM) Yes, but if Rhode Island were to leave, we'd be screwed! :lol: |
