198.0. "Noter Picks - Game Rankings" by ESPN::BLAISDELL (Tax tax here...tax tax there) Fri Jan 27 1989 15:35

      I never really noticed a topic where the noters get to rank
    their games.  I picked up the idea from the Player,Pro,Dealer 
    pick section from the Nintendo Power magazine. Please rank the
    games from your favorites (top) to least favorites (bottom).
    If you wish, also include your age range. Thought it might be
    fun. Remember, this is NOT a game review topic.

                 1 - 10
                 10 - 20
                 30 - ahem.. older

      Here is my ranking  (best to worst) of all the games I've had
    the opportunity to play. The asterisk indicates limited play in
    that the game was rented or I've just purchased it. I am in
    the 30 - older age bracket 8^(  .  But still a kid at heart!

    re: .2      That is a game rating topic.  This is a game ranking
                topic with no verbage.

    Re .3:
    
    Notes with or without extra description can be entered in topic 14.  Of
    the two responses I pointed out, one contains descriptions, one does
    not.  One is ratings, one is rankings.

         Anyone have Ghostbusters?  I couldn't find a topic for it in

    Here's what I wrote about the Sega version.

Sega	Ghostbusters		1000 Activision	awkward controls, poor game
	Buy a car and ghostbusting equipment (vacuums, traps, bait, and
	so on).  Look at a map of a city several blocks on a side.  Wait
	for building to flash.  Draw route to building.  Push button and
	watch car move along street.  Dodge occasionally.  Push button, move
	to get ghosts between rays, push button to trap ghosts.  Wait for
	building to flash and repeat.  After a while, wait for big ghost.
	Dodge big ghost to get into building.  Climb stairs and shoot ghosts
	to get to top of building.  Dodge nasty ghosts to shoot Zuul.

    Re .7:
    
    It means I'm not thrilled with the Sega version of Ghostbusters.  I
    suspect the Nintendo version is similar.

    It sounds just like the Apple version of the game.
