I need to do a survey for a class project. I hope to get a lot of people voting. There is NO Re-Casting votes and you can only select ONE option.

EDIT:
The ones I supplied are from a top 10 list of the best video games of all time, not because of graphics, but because of gameplay and the strides they made in theirs fields, like metroids graphics, which were superb at the time. So I wanted to know, out of the ones listed, which one people thought was the best.

Well i wouldn't actually vote any of those as the best of all time myself. lol

You've overlooked a lot of games imo and are focusing on one console and one time period.

But if I have to choose from only this list then I guess I will pick one to help out with your assignment. :)

I would pick Chrono Trigger as the best game from this list. But although it is a very fine game I would consider it a bit far-fetched to call it "the best game of all time".

I doubt that it is possible to objectively call any game "the best game of all time" because this is a very subjective question which depends much on personal preference. A more honest question would be to ask for someones favorite game of all time. But I couldn't answer this question honestly either, because I have a lot of favorite games from different genres I like for a lot of different reasons.

Yeah, TMW is not on the list. I chose "Chrono Trigger" because I enjoy 2d RPGs of all types. I prefer the NES "Dragon Warrior" series for CRPGs, as well as "Crystalis" and "Final Fantasy". SNES it would be "Final Fantasy" 2 and 3 (and Chrono Trigger). "Shining Force" and "Shadowrun" on Genesis. I didn't play the other systems too much.
Current character is "Abolish".

LoZ: Link to the Past was a great game. I loved it when it first came out. I was so excited to see the graphics so much better than the first Zelda, which, yes, I am old enough to have also played when it was fairly new... 8)
