IMG Game Poll Scores
Scores are averaged using the six categories in the game poll. The overall score is weighted 50 percent while graphics, sound, speed, interface, and playability count for 10 percent each for a total of 100 percent. The following ratings have a minimum of 5 respondents.
Railroad Tycoon: It crashes alot, and my best strategies seem to avoid most of the games features. The interface is lacking, but I still play it all the time (unlike SimCity), which is important in a game. Ryan Neve - Tallahassee, Florida
F/A-18 Hornet: The graphics and speed are supreme. The night fighting is especially fun - unless you get hit and lose your radar — then your in big trouble. F/A-18 is more buggy than I expected. The replays are almost always in error. Scott Cherkofsky - Fairfax, Virginia
Lemmings: My biggest complaint(s) with Lemmings is of course the copy protection (Lemmin' Aid takes care of that) and the difficulty of selecting a given lemming to perform a task. Shane Looker - Fairfield, Ohio
Gravis Mac GamePad: I bought the Mac GamePad as a package with the MouseStick II. I didn't know if I would like it but the MS II got such rave reviews I thought I would try it. Not bad, over time it has become more useful. I like it. Bradford Chase - Newton, Mass.
