Ok... after the excitement of the Solid Snake vs SD-Snatcher poll the time has come to do something different. We're going to vote for the best MSX1 game ever. How are we going to do this?

well... the first step is simple: You can post a message on the forum sending us nominations. All nominations will be added to a list.

Then, a huge list of pairs will be made in random order

e.g.

Nemesis 1 - No Fuss
Athletic Land - Circus charlie
etc. etc. etc.

That's when round 1 of the voting starts. You, the visitors of the MRC forum, have to send in which of these games you like the most.

So, you can reply with

Nemesis 1
Circus Charlie

(for instance)

or

No Fuss
Athletic land

or...
(etc)

Every round the ammount of games running for 'best MSX1 game ever' will be halved. In the end, the last games will battle on the frontpage poll. But lets just start with the nominations...

All nominations sent before april 21st, 23:59 will be counted. After that this topic will be locked and the first round of voting will start shortly after. If all works out well, we'll have more 'best ... ever' contests like this in the future. Bring 'em on!!!

Hyper sports 2
Hyper sports 3

just to make sure there are no misunderstandings: we will not CHOOSE from the list, every nomination enters the first round. 83 games are in there already, I was surprised it took some posts before Maze of Galious came along.

I'd like to add Fuzzball, Inspector Z, Pippols, Frogger and Yie ar Kung fu 1, which makes a total of 88 games. We want more!! Have a look into your collection, what were the very first MSX games you actually enjoyed?
