You fail gaming.

Wasn't that established last year? Come on, tell me something I don't already know. :p

Deus Ex dates from the same era as FreeSpace.

As (probably, the same as many of you) a gamer who has played most of this list.
WTF @ The rankings.
****ing franchise fanbois.
Most of the top ten would be lucky to get into my top 50 -.-

Yeah, the list is pretty screwed but freespace is in it. That's the important thing.

Of course I don't think they'd add teh fan-made campaigns. They're looking at Retail; FreeSpace deserves to be in the Top Ten considering the epic mods that had been generated by FRED! !  :pimp:
With the rapid increase of FS fan-made campaigns, we're giving the GTVA a harder time with more violence and genocide.

As I understand it, it was compiled by a dozen or so video game journos. They each voted for fifteen games.

Re: FREESPACE2 does it again, ten years old still in PCG top 100!
Still good publicity. . . Does HLP have a PR team yet or is it just Goober?
 
Because i'd volunteer if necessary. . .
 
 

We're working on it! (see the rendering overhaul thread - that'll hopefully help)
We've got facebook, scp.indiegames.us (which I understand is still being worked on) and HLP.
We've also got all the mods that depend on us (they send us peeps occasionally, which is great).
Now we just need world domination, and we're done!

I wonder if that was the original, or the SCP enhanced edition....

Because i'd volunteer if necessary. . .

Before we get a PR team we need a more user-friendly product. Specifically, we need to make it as user-friendly to download, install, update, and launch mods as possible. I hear there's an integrated solution to all these things in the works, but I haven't seen any evidence.

It's no good telling a thousand people about our work if only a dozen of them can actually use it.

There are a couple of things in the works - stay tuned (most probably a few months off, but they're still in the works!) :)
