Game of the Year 1994: Round Nine

Windjammers was an easy choice for me there.

Some mediocre honkers in this one!

I really enjoyed Wing Commander 3 BITD. Really felt like a big leap from the 16 bit generation. The space combat sections were great although the cutscenes could go on a bit. Zed Blade passed me by at the time but it’s actually a really solid Neo-Geo shmup. Just doesn’t have the reputation or flashy graphics of stuff like Pulstar. Well worth trying if you haven’t already.

Ah ****. Didn’t see Wing Commander III. I vote for that, too. That was easily a highlight of my 3DO ownership.

[Colin]

Yeah, Wing Commander III for me. Hard to believe that’s been a couple of polls in a year where I’ve picked a 3DO game!

[jonathan_ingram]

I was crazy into the 3DO at the time and Wing Commander 3 was one of the reasons for getting the machine, I don't think I played Windjammers until I had a NGCD much later but man what a game.

[Travesty]

Windjammers and Xcom.

I toggle into and out of ‘full size style’ for lists
