It seems intellectually dishonest for me not to choose Limbo, but I'm a big fan of Greedy Dwarf, too. Ah, hell.
Don't sweat it, I'd say Greedy Dwarf as well as I've already played through Limbo some time back on PC.
If prefering Greedy Dwarf is a crime, someone lock me up... it's a good game. I'm still undecided on my GOTW vote but Greedy Dwarf is a contender. Hopefully we see more from SleeperCell.
That doesn`t make it a bad Game. It`s just that Limbo is an Port of an three Years old Video Game and if I had to choose between an Port and three fresh unique Gaming Experience on Mobile I would choose always the second One even the Port might be as good as Limbo is.
I actually agree with this in principle. If there's two games, I'm crazy about and one's a port and one is not, I'll almost always vote for the original iOS game. I like to support new development on iOS. That said, this time around nothing blew me away except Limbo. Greedy Dwarf is good, but not incredible IMO. But if Limbo had been up against something like Arc Squadron, Polara or even Spiral not to mention countless other iOS must-haves, I don't think I would vote for it because I do like to support new development over ports. That isn't to say it isn't nice to have those ports available.
All games nominated made the poll in the following order: Limbo..................................15 nominations Greedy Dwarf........................11 nominations Garfield’s Wild Ride.................2 nominations RPG Machine Knight................2 Smash’N’Bash........................2 Angry Bulls............................1 Blackout...............................1 Ninja Gaiga............................1 Pocket Dungeon Pachinko........1 Smooth Operators..................1
Understood and accepted principle. Glad we have people here with this line of thinking. For me though, as a first-time Limbo player, i cant ignore the fact that this game totally absorbed me, so i had to give it my vote.
This and that I want more perfect ports with more perfect controls like this one for iOS gives it my vote.
Yeah no offense to any "iOS Originals" in this week's poll (or ever, to be honest), but when you have controls as good as LIMBO's...that make you feel the game was made for the platform and put the shame a billion other games' controls, then it deserves to win polls.
