Ah, thank Josh for the 4th vote in this round. I was worried about not being able to vote for Vagrant Story, because it's up against some worthy games. Ms. Pac-Man, The Legend of Zelda, and Symphony of the Night are all giants.

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night was a lot of fun. I only played the PSP remake, but it lived up to its hype.

Repeat votes here for Ms. Pac Man and Castlevania: SotN. I'm also giving a courtesy vote to Vanquish because I would qualify it as a perfect game. Helps that it's batshit crazy and a ton of fun to play.

This is difficult. I'm going to think awhile, but I'm leaning towards both the Zelda games right now.

And Paper Mario and Twilight Princess are suppose to be very good.

That being said I nominated SoTN

Paper Mario definitely deserves to move on. The original was awesome, it's an RPG both core gamers and casual gamers can get into.

I really enjoyed Twilight Princess when it first came out. I really need to give it a replay sometime soon.

I hated Vagrant Story personally.

Paper Mario is an amazing RPG though. That series used to be awesome. Now it really blows.

I thought Thousand Year Door and Super Paper Mario were just as great as the original.

Oooh, that's not a good sign. Super Paper Mario is pretty awful. I was hoping to spend some more time with the earlier entries, but I'll pass if they're anything like that turd.
