I'm bummed that Mount and Blade didn't make it. I was reminded of it by doing this poll and I've lost a couple of days just playing it. Its astonishingly compelling.

I'm a huge fan of the Yakuza series and I hope it wins, BUT if you guys do end up playing it I strongly recommend playing the PS4 remake Yakuza Kiwami. The first Yakuza game is historically significant and is a real trend setter, but the loading times are frequent and infuriating. It makes it nigh unplayable.

I suspect you're correct - though once you get a feel for how the battle controls work (mounted, in particular), it really does handle pretty fluidly and becomes just so satisfying. I just hope that if either of them like it at all, they give the Floris mod some time because I think it really fixes so much - esoteric expanded troop trees and all.

Witcher 3 would have benefited greatly from getting the mounted combat half as right as Mountain Blade does - it's truly the best $10 I've ever spent on a clunky terrible looking game that somehow never stops being fun. #hailbutterlord

Also voting for Mount and Blade: Warband. Which, by the way, is on sale on GoG this weekend for $7 (down from $20)

I feel like Just Cause 2 will rapidly become repetitive and mindless, the third one feels like that even though it' better in many different ways. Very fun games but not very challenging or anything...

David Cramb

Went with M&B. I want to see if I'm right in that Kole will love it despite its flaws and Gary will want to like it but have a love hate relationship with it due to the battle controls but will admire the concept and ambition of the game.

I've never played any of these but they're all games i would enjoy being able to "play" vicariously thru WOFF!! So this was a tough pick

Never played any of these, but if I'm going to try one for the show, I'd like it to have horses.

Frank Horrigan

I feel ya, I loved the first one. The second game was such a disappointment.

Ryan Batie

The Yakuza series is great, but the first is a VERY rough draft of the heights they would end up hitting in the PS3 era, and so I worry it would be a very mixed bag "there is some charm but also a lot of clunk and bummers" vibe.

Brian Castiano

I was kinda bummed but not really surprised to see it so low after I voted. I remember loving the game when it came out and this would have been a good excuse to drop everything I'm currently playing and see if it holds up.

Janos Bornemisza

State of Decay was absolutely fascinating - very different take on the genre with the mix with permadeath. The persistent real-time kept me from a deep dive through.

Darrin Michelson

I know Yakuza is gonna win. There's no contest with how much love that series has. It doesn't change the fact that I would really like to see State of Decay pass through the chicken separator.
