Is there one game the entire forum has played and thinks it is great? We have a winner Mario Kart! - The Bear and Badger

Wookienopants

Well A LOT of people are wrong.

Just look at Brexit

Rocket League is conspicuous by its absence. What gives? That's got the rock bottom barrier to having fun, incredibly high skill ceiling thing going on, it should have been a contender. Are people just stupid?

EvilRedEye

Only 60% of people had played Rocket League and only 60% of those people thought it was great.

monkey

So people are just stupid.

Cheers ERE. Stupidity it is

The form asking if one thought the game was great might have swayed people. I play plenty I think are good. I might have answered in the positive about more games.

I mean Virtua Tennis only on 55? Really? I can't comprehend that. What isn't to like?

Surprised some old stagers did so well - just under 50 for Asteroids (my darling) and Space Invaders.

EvilRedEye

The question that Dino posed was specifically 'great' not 'good'.

What's this "any entry" bullshit? You can't just lump multiple titles into franchises when you feel like it. The whole point of this was to find ONE GAME.

Armitage_Shankburn

Yeah, I thought this was a serious forum as befits edge magazine. Guess I thought wrong.

This isn't Brexit, we can have a SECOND SURVEY any time if you guys want one.

I suppose just saying good would water it down anyhow - wouldn't mean as much.

RamSteelwood

Hang on, if foreveracers isn't 100% liked by players then I'm gonna need names and addresses to send the boys round.

I'm really enjoying the salty response to Mk getting the nod.

Fwiw, always have a soft spot for mk64 because of timing. When I first moved out of home, share house, 4 of us and a bazillion folks dropping by, mk64 4 player was hammered.

Mk8 deluxe really is a fab package too though. Agreed with davy re ease though. Given how long it's been since I've touched the series, it was pedestrian unlocking all the courses.

That sweet Mp is so tasty.

Or portal. Can't lose.

SpaceGazelle

MK is a result.

Yossarian

Now we just have to build a new thread to work out what this is a result for.

SpaceGazelle

And we'd agree it was a result for this thread.

bad_hair_day

Face knows.
Mrs Hair adored MK64 and she’s never wrong so I’m told and MK8 is sublime on the Switch. So all-in-all, a deserved winner. Throw-in it’s the best game genre to boot, and Bob’s your avuncular salesman.

Would we all agree it though?
