This is how the game started, using the top 10 reviewed from GameRanking just as some kind of base:
BEST
1) The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64)
2) Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)
3) Super Mario Galaxy 2 (Wii)
4) Grand Theft Auto IV (PS3)
5) SoulCalibur (DC)
6) Uncharted 2: Among Thieves (PS3)
7) Metroid Prime (GCN)
8) Tekken 3 (PS)
9) The Orange Box (360)
10) Batman: Arkham City (PS3)
WORST
1) Charlie's Angels (GCN)
2) AMY (360)
3) Rogue Warrior (360)
4) Ping Pals (NDS)
5) McFarlane's Evil Prophecy (PS2)
6) American McGee Presents Bad Day LA (PC)
7) Bomberman: Act Zero (360)
8) Bruce Lee: Quest of the Dragon (XBOX)
9) Mobile Suit Gundam: Crossfire (PS3)
10) MTV's Celebrity Deathmatch (360)
I then went around from person to person (all nerds/geeks of some sort) and had them play this game that developers play at PAX (I think it's PAX).
You get one move: You can either remove a game and replace it with one of your choosing, or you can move a game already on the list anywhere up or down. I told them they only got one move this semester and they actually really thought about it hard.
That didn't stop the list from sucking pretty hard. Here's the results from Day 1:
BEST
1) Halo 2
2) StarCraft
3) Batman: Arkham City
4) God Hand
5) Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3
6) God of War III
7) Super Smash Bros. Brawl
8) Gears of War
9) The World Ends With You
10) Kingdom Hearts
WORST
1) BulletWitch
2) Vampire's Rain
3) SpongeBob Squarepants
4) E.T. The Extra Terrestrial
5) McFarlane's Evil Prophecy
6) Aquaman: Battle for Atlantis
7) Back to the Future (NES)
8) Pac-Man (Atari 2600)
9) Call of Juarez: The Cartel
10) MTV Celebrity Deathmatch
Noticeably, Arkham City is the only game of the original 10 best to not get replaced, and on the Worst list MTV and McFarlane stayed in the same spots. Also the person who wrote Spongebob didn't specify what the hell he meant so I just tacked it on there.
Games that spent a long time on the list: Skyrim, GoldenEye007 and Legend of the Dragoon all spent about 20 turns on the list before getting knocked off. Also, someone took off FFVII for Superman 64, and apparently nobody thought to add FFVII back on at any point.
Also this kid with Aspergers added Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War II Retribution but when I just wrote down "W40KDWII" he got super pissed that I didn't include the "Retribution" part. Surprisingly, it stayed on for like 10 turns.
I'm gonna continue doing this tomorrow as I only got about 30 people, I think it's kinda interesting.
Yeah
my campus sucks
