For me, the toughest part was choosing between DIIK and Christmas Carol. Oy!

[+cvga]

Wow, this is much tougher than the released games poll! We are lucky to have so many talented people continuing to develop games today! I don't know if I'll even be able to vote.

[vprette]

I wonder if a comparison between classic 125 and homebrew make sense... long developing time and better del tools for the actual developers vs professional environment and 100% daily time effort for the originals... who was in advantage

Where's Space Patrol?

No, please don't.

Another comparison that would be interesting would be to see what is the

• Best homebrew existing game port (ex: DIIK, Minesweeper)
• Best unreleased ROM (ex: League of Light, Deep Pockets),
• Best original homebrew (ex: Christmas Carole).

However, Paddle Party might be hard to categorize since it has Pong as an existing game port and has original games like Air Hockey and Pong In Space.

 

Perhaps these would be some interesting polls to try out, if time permits.

I think there are not enough games to propose those unusual polls... but a s a matter of facts the new titles are incresing a lot since 2014 and we await zaxxon, smurf and boulderdash ports... so we can discuss new categories...

I was expecting 4tris to have lot of fans

[+cmart604]

Well I didn't want to have to choose between Carol and D2K until the semi or final but I'm pretty sure they'll be both going though anyways

You're probably right. In a year or so, we should have a nice set for each category.

D2K and Carol are in a league by themselves and I want them BOTH to advance, no question.

 

D2K did things with the system that I wouldn't have imagined possible on the Intellivision. It filled a void left by Coleco's Donkey Kong and showed what the game should have been like back in the day.

 

Christmas Carol has an addictive game-play quality with entertaining characters and intermission scenes that add to the fun. It's without a doubt the homebrew that I've played the most and see myself playing again and again.

 

With all said, I voted Carol. Fun, addictive game that always brings a smile to my face (except for when that ^%$#*ing Ghost touches me ...)

4tris is a great game and the one that started it all. We can not thank Joe Z enough for his efforts! But in the end I decided for DIIK.

[+intvsteve]

I voted for 4-Tris. TBH as much fun as I've had with all of these, it's the only one I played really extensively. That, in no way whatsoever, reflects on the quality of these titles! I've honestly enjoyed all of them. But life is funny in where you end up able to spend time on hobbies. I hope I'm making some wise choices in that regard, but only time will tell.

I agree with most.... I did expect more 4tris votes.. but Im not surprised by the result

d2k push the intv far away of my expectations.... can you imagine this game back in '83 making a storm when compared to colecovision?

The Intellivision would have sold a LOT more units!

[vprette]

result is clear but we need to know the 1st place since 1st will face the 2nd of the other poll
