ThePope Posted September 22, 2004 If you had to go out today and buy one of these games which would it be? Now i know these are two diffrent games from two diffrent genres, but if you HAD to buy one which would you? Feel free to comment on why. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jokemaster Posted September 22, 2004 Evil Genius. Because it's so damn creative I want it to make money to inspire ideas like this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SiN Posted September 22, 2004 EG. although its a tough choice, because WH40K seems like such a damn good & innovative game. but seeing as i absolutely love dungeon keeper, and will play anything similar to it, EGs got my vote. the art style and creativity just sweetens the deal. and besides, any money towards former bullfrog guys is well spent money.

MrHoatzin Posted September 22, 2004 I'm gonna buy Warhammer, though I wasn't a big fan of the lone previous Warhammer game I played... Reveal hidden contents ...becasue Sierra is gonna send me a free review copy of Evil Genius. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Twilo Posted September 22, 2004 What kind of crazy poll is this? What's better, cheese or hats? Well, cheese is pretty good, it's easier to eat, but with a hat, you can use it every day, and the smell won't get much worse. I say hats! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick Posted September 22, 2004 Warhammer 40k DoW, because I've been on the beta for a while now and this game does actually rock immensely. I'd recomend this game to everyone, best rts eva!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ysbreker Posted September 22, 2004 this is the worst poll ever. It forces me to choose between two titles I absolutely want to have :/ On the one hand I get to do all the awesome secret lair building and bond style torturing goodness I can handle with evil genius But on the other hand if I choose evil genius I have to miss out on the badassness that is warhammer40k: dawn of war but if I'm absolutely forced to choose one i'd reluctantly go with evil genius, sorry m'n blood angel space marines! I was forced by the evil genius! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DanJW Posted September 22, 2004 I'm not going to choose - I am going to get both. Which first? that I don't know yet. It depends what mood I'm in on payday. If I feel like directing a huge sci fi army and blowing stuff up, with lots of mayhem and carnage and a gritty setting, then Dawn of War it is. On the other hand if I feel like sitting back relaxing while my brightly coloured minions go about their business, only ever lifting a finger to order some more amusing traps or stroke my fluffy white cat; then Evil Genius will be first in my DVD drive.

Twilo Posted September 22, 2004 If, however, you want to vote in STUPID POLLS, you should forgo video games and come straight to Idle Thumbs' forums! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damn Twilo its just a poll who cares how stupid it is. If it bothers that much just dont open the topic. There problem solved! How about this one: which do u like more eating or drinking?

Twilo Posted September 22, 2004 We should make a poll! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gabez Posted September 22, 2004 We should, but perhaps we should vote on it first? Let's make a poll to make a poll! It's having an opinion gone mad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Erkki Posted September 22, 2004 Right now I'd say Evil Genius because I haven't played the Warhammer demo yet, and don't know anything about the previous games. But it is among the leftovers of my demo downloading frenzy last week, so I'll play it tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tanukitsune Posted September 26, 2004 Evil Genius! I just finished the demo and I loved it! When I was interrogating a prisoner, the minion instead of torturing him did the... (shudder)... MOONWALK! Actually it's was the review of this site that convinced me to try the demo.... I might try the Warhammer 40,000 demo if I find it.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Erkki Posted September 26, 2004 I've played the Dawn of War demo a bit now and it surely seems an interesting game. But again, as with Rise of Nations and other strategy games, playing the demo has already satisfied my curiosity and I'm not that interested in the full game. I just can't fucking help being bored by base building. If I do it once, maybe twice in one game, I've had enough. And I didn't really appreciate Dawn of War's "solution" to the question "How do those units magically appear from the barracks?" So still, I'd go with Evil Genius. Well, that has of course even more base building, but you know what I mean. I didn't like Dungeon Keeper much though, so it may turn out I won't like this either.

Nick Posted September 27, 2004 I haven't gotten around to playing the single player demo of DoW yet but as I mentioned before I played the multiplayer beta a fair bit and I can honestly say that the multiplayer in DoW is absolutely brilliant in my opinion. The sheer size of some of the battles and the animations and... well... everything. The game looks stunning and for me plays the same way. Yay DoW, yay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
