Let's all nominate a game for the VGHOF

I'll nominate Lode Runner.

I think it would be fun if we all did this for different games as a community for Christmas. Like how some communities all buy a poor family's Christmas gifts.

I'm going to have to go with Journey (arcade) I think this year. Monkey Island, etc is all obvious but Journey seems to be way more obscure than it should be. I can't even find a "world high score" for it after breaking the local score. I also can't stop playing it every time I am around it.

I will officially vote tomorrow..

I submitted DOOM. 3D first person shooter with dynamic lighting, non-rectangular rooms, doors that open bottom up or top down, plus other things I've probably forgotten.
Given the general rise in expenses and fall in the typical standard of living, the future ain't what it used to be.

I'm too lazy to justify why I would nominate Civilization. IV specifically, but they seem to induct entire franchises.

Well then, I'm glad I didnt go thru all the effort.

If Civilization and Ultima are in there, I'm good.

I'm submitting Bubble Bobble, partially because it's a great game and partially because I've been playing it all weekend so it's the only game I can think of.

Dune 2000 is the only game I've played consistently for 20+ years so that.

What are your thoughts on Puzzle Bobble? (Neo Geo)
