I will be your champion, Junk Jack X. I love you...

I thought about casting only 1 vote for Unlimited Saga, but decided to vote for all 3 of the games I nominated.

Sticking by Suikoden, although this'll wane as the first sequel comes around. Knights in the Nightmare gets a vote for its utter uniqueness. This was Sting at the peak of their creativity and, despite how impossible its concept sounds, culminated in a fresh, deep, and tremendously involving SRPG experience you literally cannot get anywhere else.

Sticking with just Suikoden. One of my favourite games of all time, that's why I nominated it.

I like Golden Sun too but I just don't think it's in the same league.

Links Awakening. Not the best Zelda in the world but still pretty enjoyable.

Golden Sun is such a mediocre series of RPGs. I'm glad to see it being crushed.

Lemmings, Suikoden, The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, and Ninja Gaiden Black will advance to the next round.
