I think the simplicity of 1 is really an underrated aspect of it, because just thinking about some of those minigames in 2 is giving me some light gamer PTSD flashbacks

maybe the 1 v 2 v 3 debate comes down to "what % of straight-up Spyro gameplay and what % of weird extra bullshit is the right balance for you?"

It's my birthday! I'm not good at parties so let's talk about video games in this SPECIAL EDITION MOUNT RUSHMORE!

The rules: ANYTHING GOES (kinda), I will even take fan games and mods, although I do draw the line at fictional games/myths. Unreleased games can be OK if they were somehow made accessible to the public at some point.

VOTE WITH YOUR HEART, NOT WITH YOUR MIND! I want to hear about the Mount Rushmore IN YOUR SOULS!

Because the entire idea of this Rushmore is subjective, I may just take the 10 games with the most votes and make a poll for tomorrow's Rushmore to settle which 4 make it. We'll see though, I need to know how the votes land.

Same voting rules as last topic apply:

ZenOfThunder posted...
Video Game-rules:
I will NOT be combining multiple versions of games, so if you are going to vote for SF2, coordinate amongst yourselves on which version you will be supporting so that the votes don't split.

If you are voting for something that got a reboot like Mortal Kombat or God of War, please specify which version of the game you mean by putting the year in your vote.

Same thing for multiple versions of the game, like if you are voting for Spider-Man 2 (2004), not only is that confusing because there is a new Spider-Man 2 (2023), but there's also console versions, mobile versions, and a PC port that are all different, so your vote would need to look like "Spider-Man 2 (2004)(PS2)."

If you do not specify, I won't be asking for clarification, and I am going to make a big Zen Assumption during tallying.

YESTERDAY: A very close day for one of the "essential" Mount Rushmores! I will say that a lot of games nominated definitely could fit on this Rushmore. Lots of really great debate, but Fortnite ultimately could not seal the deal. Props to Pokemon RBY for sneaking up despite not really getting support right from the get-go.

We had so much fun posting our personal Rushmores that I figured I'd take this last day of the Zen Birthday Break and turn it into a bonus round! (Plus I think a Zelda/Pokemon tiebreaker will be fun)

Also shoutouts to Beauty and the Beast for winning a VERY close TB against Little Mermaid. Mermaid was actually leading for almost an entire day there.
