The All-Time top Yak game poll

[Fuseball]

Although I strongly suspect that in a year or so's time I'll have new #1... these are based on how much fun I had with them at the time just as much as how much I still play them.

1. Tempest 2000 (Jag)
2. Ancipital (C64)
3. Colourspace (A800)
4. VLM (Jag)
5. Revenge of the Mutant Camels (C64)

Every time I play T3K I'm gobsmacked by it - I just don't know it well enough to put it in my list though...

[K3V]

• 1. Tempest 3000
  2. Tempest 2000
  3. Gridrunner ++
  4. Hover Bovver II
  5. Defender 2000

[skip]

I've only played about an hour of G++ on a fairly slow machine so I can't count that. I did dectect a hint of T2K's addictiveness in the game, so it may soon jump up my list. And I've had a pocket pc for a year but don't have a pc (mac only at this stage) to download and transfer the games. And I haven't played Sheep in Space or Iridis Alpha for aaaggges so I can't count those (I probably can't even remember how to play IA).

Hmmmm...

1. Andes Attack (ST) - very underrated game I played lots of
2. Tempest 2K (Jag) - natch
3. Llamatron (ST) - Rude Llamatron will soon replace it, to be played natively on my TT030
4. Defender 2000 (Jag) - not the best game ever but a damn fine adrenaline rush
5. Super Gridrunner (ST)
6. Revenge (ST)

That'll do for now

Ah yes, scoring. Good point Aureole!

At the moment the chart is simpy based on 5/4/3/2/1 scores for 1/2/3/4/5th place in your lists! When all cotes are in/I get some time/I get bored and decide enough is enough I will also do some more detailed analysis based on numbers of 1st places, numbers of nominations etc.

OK here are mine, (I have to admit that there are a few in existance that I never played, not being a commondore boy and not getting round to playing the emulators yet - but Frodo becons!)

1) Llamatron ST
2) GR++ (even though I can't play it on my PC whenever I do it is class)
3) T2000 (only reason I got my Jag)
4) Hover Bover (Atari800)
5) AMC (Atari800)

But I'm sure this will change when I finally get my Nuon, and when my new cubie gets a present next year

[Mayhem]

Aureole? I thought I asked about it

[Zoot]

1. Ancipital (first game I ever finished. Loved it loads)
2. Mama Llama (seriously under-rated IMHO, and I was ace at it )
3. Batalyx
4. Gridrunner (C64 version - inspired me to learn to code)
5. Revenge of the Mutant Camels (I bought a C64 for this 'nuff said)

but, but, but, there are about 20 others I want to nominate

Thank the Lord for emulators eh?

[CharlieF]

OK easy peasy...

Jese this is hard to do

1) Iridis Alpha
2) Revenge of the Mutant Camels
3) Sheep In Space
4) Hovver Bovver
5) Gridrunner++

In truth I could juggle most Minter games in this list
This should have been a top ten.

My cube waits...

[everklear]

Time to put in my $0.02.

By amount of play time:

1. Tempest 2000 (Jag)
2. Llamatron (ST)
3. Gridrunner++
4. Hovver Bovver (A800)
5. Colourspace (ST) (I think it was the ST that I played with the most).

[Flojomojo]

I never had a C64, so my answers are swayed towards the more recent stuff.

Tempest 3000 (Nuon)
Defender 2000 (Jaguar)
Tempest 2000 (Jaguar)
VLM 2 (Nuon)
Unity (Gamecube)

Yeah, I need to get emulating, don't I.

[darkladywolf]

Of course I can only go by those I've played:"

Gridrunner ++
Iridis Alpha
Hover Bovver 2
Ancipital
Attack of the Mutant Camels
Gridrunner (original)

[Guest]

1. Llamatron
2. Gridrunner ++
(I haven't played any more! - My secret shame!)

[PVB]

1. Llamatron
2. Gridrunner ++
(I haven't played any more! - My secret shame!)

The fact that you've played two of the best is no shame at all!
