Doesn't matter if it shits over it or not, I'm sure most of the people that voted on this voted MGS not because it's art but because it was that cool action game that had solid snake and what the fuck is oddworld anyway??
Still, I voted for Oddworld. No point in being a negative nancy about it! |
Actually, lots of people know about Oddworld.
I do agree with you, though: most people won't vote on how much of a work of art a game is like they're supposed to. |
I don't actually know what Metal Gear Solid is.
._. |
|
I never got into Metal Gear. I played the 2nd one on PS1 and that was amazing.
|
You mean you played the first Metal Gear Solid game on the PS1, which was the 3rd Metal Gear game.
Max, you're missing out on fucking hours of epic cutscene that most people couldn't care less about. Also, some neat gameplay. |
I voted! I hope Oddworld wins!

I don't want to believe you! |
I bought Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of liberty (or something like that), but when I put it in the PS2 and pressed start it kept repeating the "Press Start" screen. I sent it back and after THAT they tell me they don't have another disc or whatever so I got my money back.
|
Cool story bro.

(And there's Part 2 as well) And yeah, I hope AO wins against it - It's a lot more deserving since Oddworld is a hell of a lot more innovative and original than Metal Gear, in terms of art style. |
Would you be angry on me if I voted for MGS series which I love? I know I can't vote for both.
(Asking because of curiousity...) |
Why would any of us be angry for you voting for something you like? Do what you want, it's your choice.
|
Absolutely. And if none of us ever speak to you again, you can rest assured it's for some completely separate, albeit nondescript, reason.
|
Not only will I hate you but I'll chop of the ear of one of your beloved pets and sew it onto my forehead. Find you and force you caress it with your tongue. Then I'll leave.

That's true, but both MGS and Oddworld are in the same "Action Genre" (which is so unbelievably stupid) and I simply get no option for voting for Oddworld after I did it with MGS :/ Maybe 80, but only one from each category... Another stupid thing is that Crash Bandicoot is there also. What's so similar in terms of art style, game genre, gameplay, anything for them to put on the same shelf? Geez.
|
Dude, follow your heart. Vote for the game you feel you have to vote for.
|
As long as it's Oddworld right?
|
...and Yar's Revenge
|
i hope ao gets in, i voted for it ages ago
|
voted AO hope it wins :)
|
Out of curiosity, when is the voting finishing?
|
No idea, so I guess you can still vote.
|
from today until April 27
|
Just got an email from them:
:
|
I voted twice-with my e-mail and with my mothers'
|
Got an email from them, just like everybody else I guess

Awhh, Oddworld did NOT win :(
Of course MGS was the winner in our catagory. http://americanart.si.edu/exhibition...nninggames.pdf |
Well thats why these contests always annoy me. They aren't about the most artistic games/items or the most deserving. It's just a popularity contest.
It's not to say that MGS didn't deserve to win. I haven't played it so I cant judge, but I really do think its just a popularity contest x_x buh. But maybe that's what they were after anyway. |
