I agree with the sentiments about Breakaway here. It's the season I've been least involved in FIRST since joining in high school so I was more of a spectator than anything else at our regional. It had some good Finals matches but outside of that was very difficult to watch from a spectator view due to the struggles in scoring.
If you look at the site and look at individuals with 10+ years of experience, First Frenzy is first followed by Aim High. I think another version of First Frenzy with three robots on a side would be pretty interesting to play... although I am not sure if there was enough room on the field to play six robots... the center steps and hanging area took up a great deal of room. Perhaps a version of First Frenzy without the steps and with 4 movable goals.

I am not sure how individuals who have only experienced the last few games can rank those old games. I don't feel qualified to rank the first few games because I didn't play them... I wish the survey had asked that question too...the best we can do is to screen those with less experience and see what individuals with experience in at least 10+ years of games think ...

I don't mean to dismiss the younger members but i really don't know how you can rate a game if you haven't played it or at least seen lots of videos of the game (which are hard to find for the early games...)
