It was also not unreasonable to expect it wouldn't get it when you looked at what games SBAllen put under 2000's profile. Like, what games 2000 got besides FFIX and MM was a crapshoot, and they didn't get what they needed. I don't agree with this line of thinking. Yeah, it didn't get what it needed, but the fact of the matter is that 1996 did and there was no guarantee for that either. Super Mario RPG was not guaranteed at all - Bacon has removed other random games in the name of diversity. It's actually very weird that there's two Mario games in the same poll. And 2000 not getting Pokemon GSC OR Diablo 2 is probably the biggest pic screwery of the contest so far. I can sort of see Deus Ex included for the diversity and it being a fairly landmark game, but did we really need Perfect Dark? It seems like he was going for diversity of platform rather than franchise. The late 90s, and 2000 itself didn't have a lot of variety. All games worth playing were N64, PS1 or PC. 1996 on the other hand still had SNES, Genesis, PS1, N64 and Saturn games coming out. --- DpObliVion, my hat is off to you.
