Re: Lunacy = Greatest Game Ever

i agree but for very different reasons.

this game more than any other in my opinion incorporated good strategy and good driving because any team with good enough strategy and driving could take out any other entirely. this lack of dominance by one team in a match made every match a toss up and made it exciting for me.

also i liked how the human players decided matches in which there really weren't any scorers but when there were good scorers they won the matches no matter how good the other human players were.

and i liked how the floor played such a huge role in making the game possible. if this game was played on carpet it would not have worked at all. no one would be able to pin anyone or any trailer and scores would be terribly low unless the teams were really bad. the floor really played into the game well and despite the problem with static i think it was a great decision by the gdc.

lastly i would like to comment on everyone who constantly said this game was boring because it wasn't. sure when no one could score in a match it was boring but that is true for every single game. when the good teams came to play the excitement was unmatched in any other game.
