Top TurboGrafx-16 games (as voted by users)

[Damon Plus]

I really like this type of lists and found them enjoyable to read. Looking at old archives, I don't think this has been done on this forum, at least seriously. You now how this works. Everyone gives a Top 10 list in order, first game gets 10 points, second gets 9... As there is only 94 US Turbografx releases, the Top will consist of just 30 games. I will periodically count votes. If there's demand for it, there can be a separate list for CD games. This are my choices:

1-Military Madness
2-Alien Crush
3-Legendary Axe
4-JJ and Jeff
5-Air Zonk
6-Splatterhouse
7-Blazing Lazers
8-Bonk's Revenge
9-World Court Tennis
10-Ninja Spirit

[Duo_R]

I suggest changing the thread name to "list your top 10 games" and then you do a top 30 later

I think I haven't explained it  clearly. Your top must only have 10 games, but I will compile it up to the top 30 games with the most points.

[CrackTiger]

I think I haven't explained it  clearly. Your top must only have 10 games, but I will compile it up to the top 30 games with the most points.

Feel free to factor in my top ten. The other 20 are for comparison to the tallied up list.

I could easily overthink this, so I'm going to throw out the first 10 US hueys that I think are awesome.

Ninja Spirit
Devil's Crush
Bomberman '93
Alien Crush
Blazing Lazers
Military Madness
Air Zonk
Soldier Blade
Dungeon Explorer

Ok, if I had to put them in a top 10 format.....

It's hard to put an order to them as they are all awesome.  If I only had an Express, the order would be different.  If I was going to sit down with a buddy or two for some obey, the order would be different.  There I go, overthinking....

[Damon Plus]

Sorry for the delay, this is the first update. I've counted all games as the users put them in Top 10 order, leaving out CD games for a separate list. PC-Engine games and joke lists are not counted. For mixed lists, I've counted games as if they were in separate lists, giving its corresponding points.

From now on, only lists that meet these rules will be accepted:
-They must have 10 entries, and be in descending order
-No Japanese games
-CD games and Turbochips must be on separated lists

Also, I see you have your list here on page 3.  I suggest editing your top post and placing the list right on the front of the first page.  Thanks for compiling!

[Damon Plus]

doh!!

You can change your list before my next update. You have just 1 game in your Turbochip list (Coryoon) and 3 in your CD list (Dracula X, Starting Odissey 2 and Star Parodier) that are not US releases.

Following Theclash603 suggestion, I've included the list in the first post and changed the title of the thread. After a few more lists, I'll update again.

[MottZilla]

It's an interesting result so far. Good idea to limit it to just TG16 releases.

[sheath]

I like how the list is turning out so far, but didn't study it much so I could contribute hopefully without being influenced.

Side note how did John Madden make the top 15 CD games?

Maybe because only 15 games have been voted

More likely the fans from the FMV clip are forum members and voted for the game.

[reno5]

The list came nicely... i'll keep looking for the games i don't have that are in the top

[DildoKKKobold]

Top Turbo-CD games

1- Ys I & II (35)
2-Lords of Thunder (25)
3-Gates of Thunder (22)
4-Dungeon Explorer 2 (20)
5 - Ys III (18)

This is a lie! We demand a recount!

[Damon Plus]

Well, I didn't count your list because:

Dungeon Explorer Two this is just two dungeon explorer cards glued one on top of another. Rumored to be the sixth secret Supergrafx game.
Dungeon Explorer II this was to be the pack-in for the Snes CD, so it doesn't count for this list.
Dungeon Explorer Dos this is the extremely rare spanish translation of the second part, not even one has surfaced, ever. Magical Chase rare? Ha!
Dungeon Explorer the Second was the never released sequel of the sequel (sort of like Street Fighter: the movie: the game)

Of course you can redo your entire list and I'll count it.
