It was released as UFO in America, and released as Enemy Unknown in Europe. Or something like that. It was released under 2 different names based on the regions.

I have exams now... New temporary result will be tommorow.

P.S: you remind me a lot of good all games. If Worms 2 was released in the period i'll vote it. And Mater of magic is very cool (you can download it from abandonware sites).

P.P.S: You can find all release dates on "the underdogs".

Dissedent is requested to vote X-Com 1 in next thread. X-com that was released in 1997 is X-Com apocalypse.

Please specify full game name when voting. MOM was counted as Master of Magic, and C&C as Command&Comquer, but some game abbreviation look odd.

During that time...

Myst: 20 <-- Frustrating as h#ll, but rewarding in an odd sort of way

Civ 2: 20 <--played it to death

Warcraft 2: 10 <-- Ditto

can't vote for X-com1? That may be 1994. I'm not sure. I got my first PC in 1995, and all I know is some of my first games were X-com and masters of Magic.

In fact masters of Magic was in 1994 as well I think.

I'm not sure about Crusader: No Remorse- but you forgot to put the points for crusader in that list.

I'm trying to think of other games that came out in that time. Did Fallout 1 come out during that time? If so put 20 points for Fallout 1

I found the release date for Fallout 2- that in 1998. So I have to asssume Fallout 1 came out prior to 1998.

So here's my updated list if I can't vote for X-com 1

Civ2: 20 points
Fallout 1: 20 points
Crusader: No Remorse 5 points
Masters of Magic: 5 points

Amongst the ones released in those 3 years, I've played much more games than in the subsequent years!

If the limit of 8 titles you can express a vote for is strictly enforced, I'll have to sacrifice a few titles that would have been worth of an absolute mention, in my opinion.

So, here I go with the allotment of my 50 points.

20 Riven (97)
10 Stars! (96)
8 Civ II (96)
5 Master of Magic (95)
3 Machiavelli the Prince (95)
2 Master of Orion 2: Battle at Antares
aka MOO:BAA (96)
1 Myst (95)
1 Death Rally (96)

Honorable mention to:
Blade Runner
The Incredible Machine 3
SimCity Classic (Win95 release in 95, while the Win3.x original came out in 94)
Settlers II

(although, even if I could include 2 of these, up to 10 titles in the poll, I wouldn't know which of the official 8 to take a vote out from...)

Sim City 2000 was released in '93
In this poll scope was released SimCity 2000:CD collection, which was just a commercial bundle and I wonder whether it qualifies as a standalone title for the poll, and Streets of simCity

X-COM: UFO Defense aka UFO:Enemy Unknown came out indeed in 94

Well, muxec is the authority here, and he tallied all the Simcity2000 votes despite he stated himself that the DOS version was released prior to the poll's scope (and what did he mean by that???)

In summary:

89 SC DOS (the original, Brøderbund)
91 SC Win3x (Dev AND published by Maxis)
93 SC 2000 DOS (new game)
93 SC 2000 Special Edition DOS,Win3x (Win3x port + Disaster Scenarios addon + Urban Renewal Kit editor)
94 SC 2000 URK DOS,Win3x (separate release of the editor only for those who had purchased SC2k but not the SE)
94 SC Classic Win3x (port of the original, not 2k)
95 SC Classic Win95 (port of the original, not 2k)
96 SC 2000: CD Collection Win3x,Win95 (the name suggests that this is just a collection of the old CDs, instead this release includes the SC2kSE *ported* to Win95, and a "Bonus Cities and Scenarios" extra)
97 Streets of SC Win9x (EA, new game: drive thru SC-created urban tracks...)
99 SC 3000 Win9x, Linux (new game)
99 SC 3000 Unlimited Win9x, Linux (World Edition in the UK - standalone game, but same as SC3k with more objects in it and extended editor)
03 SC 4 Win (new game, 3D)

Now, if the mere '95 edition of the Win95 port od SC Classic qualifies it for the poll, I figure that also the '96 CD Collection SC2k Win95 port should qualify.
Only requisite, is that voters have played THAT exact release, and NOT the '93 SC2k for DOS or Win3x...



Up to muxec!
