Finalists Selected for the VHS Case Challenge
I never understand how people manage to RATE games when they have not tried them. There are so many Finalists with all kinds of different "Angles" and it's neat to see what the TGC community is up to.
Sometimes from a superficial position, you look at the Images and judge by the "eyes" so-to-speak... But that's usually a poor way of determining which games are BEST ... Especially when some game are more NOVEL than PRETTY.
I know this is HARD to "judge" and it takes some serious commitment to SIFT thru all the games and see what is INTERESTING (from both gameplay and appearances). I mean most ppl will probably only view like 2 or 3 games while scrolling through them and give a their approval for 1 or 2 of those games. You really need gamers who have the time to "analyze" the game for better or worst and figure out which games merit a vote (for whatever reasons make senses to that person)...
Anyways I'm glad to see that people are still raging on-wards with CONTESTS and that this "source" of inspiration continues to challenge designers with tasks that make gamers go: "Cool or Huh?"
Wishing all the Finalist a big Hoorah ... And may they all get the opportunity to put forth their best foot first (again whatever way they like be it cleverness or sexiness...)
Cheers all!
