It's time for the category you all voted for: spin-off games! This time we're nominating games that deviate from their existing IP to create something different. There were an insane amount of games…
I actually, um, uh, I was moaning about the polls being all broken and rubbish before we went to recording, and, uh, I managed to track down the person who runs that poll.blue thing and ask her.
She replied to me as well.
So, uh, I asked her, like, "Why, why is there 10 votes immediately when I press post?" And, uh, I'm gonna see what she says.
But anyway, I took all those weird bot immediate votes away.
So if you ever look at the poll, ladies and gents, when you voted on Blue Sky, and it looks, whatever it looks like, uh, unfortunately, that is not what's gonna be the end of it, because I have to do some subtracting of bots at the end.
Having done that, it was the closest run poll we've ever had, I would imagine, between four of us anyway, in terms of the difference between fourth and first and then everyone in between.
'Cause in fourth place, joint third, I guess, was both me and Simon with 22% of the votes each.
In narrowly, in s- uh, in second place was "GTA IV" and Rob with 27%.
But with 29% of the votes, much to the chagrin of one man and another man who has never played it but thought he would contribute anyway-
[laughs]
[laughs] Uh, is Steve with "Halo 3." Congratulations, Steve.
Cheers, dude.
I wanna say to that guy, thanks for coming.
Anyone who raises their hand-
Yeah
... to say, "I've got nothing to add," is just, uh, is, is golden in my opinion.
Yeah.
I've-- didn't even mention "Halo 3" either.
You only mentioned one and two.
[laughs]
[laughs] Yeah.
