WOFF! Poll: Remade and Remastered (Trying Again)

Added 2018-06-22 01:17:01 +0000 UTC

Trying this again... I accidentally didn't set the previous poll to be "one response per Patron."

This spring, we held a Watch Out for Fireballs! poll to select a video game reboot, remake, or remaster to play. That resulted in the Doom 2016 episode, which was a lot of fun. This time, we're doing the opposite... We are asking you to choose one game out of four that has been remastered, so we can play the original. Confusing, right? Each of these games has a high profile update, but the originals are still interesting enough to warrant attention. So here are the contenders.

God of War (PS2, 2005). Before Kratos was an olddad, he was a young man on a warpath, seeking revenge against the gods.
Ninja Gaiden 2: The Dark Sword of Chaos (NES, 1990). Ryu Hayabusa wasn't always the star of a 3D character action series... instead, his early years were spent platforming against the forces of the Realm of Darkness.
Prince of Persia (PC, 1989). Before he found the Sands of Time, the Prince had to fight the Grand Vizier in the earliest entry of the "cinematic platformer" genre.
River City Ransom (NES, 1989). A Kickstarted reboot grabbed a lot of peoples' attention, but this Kunio-Kun classic brawler can still whack you over the head with a garbage can if it wants to.

The deadline for voting is Sunday, July 1. We will play this game at the end of August, after our three part coverage of our Summer JRPG, Nier.
