The TIGForums Twenty 2008!

Alright, guys, I think it's that time again.  Time for the TIGForums Twenty (or TTT)!  Last year's was pretty fun, and this time should be even more fun - we have more people and we also have something to compare our results to!  I'm excited just to see the way my own results have changed.

Confused?  TTT is a forum game/experiment/thingy where each person lists their favorite games and assigns points to them.  At the end we tally the points and create a master list which will theoretically represent the forums' tastes.  It's not very scientific, but it is fun.

Results from last year: http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=461.0

Rules from last year: http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=462.0

Rules

You have 210 points (that's 20 + 19 + 18 + ... + 1) to spread out amongst as many games as you want (up to a total of 210, obviously).  The most basic way to do this is to submit 20 games (check out my list for an example).  But you could also give ten games 1 point each and then load 200 points on a single game!  Or even put all 210 points on one game, if you really want to see that game on the list.  So there's some strategy to it if you're interested.

- LISTS ONLY IN THIS THREAD!  DISCUSSION IN THIS THREAD!

- You are only allowed 210 points total.  But you may use less.

- A maximum of 100 points can be assigned to a single game.

- Any game from any system or genre, indie or not.  If Tiger LCD Baseball is one of your favorite games, do it!

- Must be a game and not a series.  "Street Fighter II: Turbo Edition" and not "Street Fighter II."  I realize that hurts games with a lot of expansions and sequels, but that's what they get.

- Mods are okay, too!

- Be honest and don't vote 100 for some dumb game just to be funny.

- However, how you interpret "favorite" is entirely up to you... nostalgia is a perfectly good reason to vote.

- PLEASE USE THE RIGHT FORMAT!  Rank your games like "1." and score them like "[1]" as I've done below.

- Please only put the names of the games in the list.  No notes, no platforms, nothing.  And try to use the official title of the name.  e.g. "The Legend of Zelda" instead of "Zelda 1."  It makes it a lot harder to tabulate the scores when people use their own abbreviations.

- This thread will be up for a month (until November 17th), when the thread will be locked and the scores tabulated into a master list.  We're going for 20, but I'll display 100, so even 1 point votes count!

- Feel free to edit your list within the month of voting!
