World of Xeen is perhaps the best Western RPG made before 1995.

Mirror's Edge was an absolutely wonderful experience. Not sure why it's listed as PC though. I played it on 360.

Those who nominated it specifically mentioned the PC version.

Ah, there we go, my first multi-vote. Gate and Astro Boy by a country mile for me. I did give Contra 3 and Mirror's Edge some consideration, but couldn't give them the votes on flaws (ME) and superior entries in the franchise (C3).

I'm probably going to regret voting for Astro Boy.

I had to go with Gates (love that music and love that action) and what I sincerely believe is the best Dragon Quest game in DQVI.

Voted for Gate of Thunder and Contra III. Both great games. Love 'em.

Now I guess I should get around to beating either of them...
