Come and vote and perhaps I won't be the only one to unwittingly break the thing yet again this year from voting too strongly even with trying to control my impulses.   8)

Holy Shiz!

I'll probably do another break down like I did here:

Predictions:

Top 5 will be -
  TOME4 - How can you argue with this? With a steam release and return champ, this one is a well deserved lock.
  ADOM - Coming a long nicely and a solid past performer.
  Crawl - Another consistent performer.
  Cataclysm: Dark Days - I think it will come on strong.
  Unreal - Again a classic.

So no surprises in my predictions this year, though Cataclysm has moved up.

For surprises I'd look at Spelunky HD and Rogue Legacy. Two very popular hybrids.

Is Cataclysm good? I've heard about it, but haven't check it out. I think this year's only good news has been a new version of Norrendrin. Worst is ADOM with strong attempt to make it commercial with stupid anime graphics.

Has anyone been able to find the one listed as "_____rogue the space"? I can't find it anywhere, including Rogue Basin.

Hey there Krice I think Cataclysm might be good for you. It has great depth.

I've not seen or played _______rogue the space
