Oh and anyone who isn't voting for Toejam and Earl is a big poo

I'm not sure myself, saw this over at kotaku and people there seem to be able to vote

The votes are going up though.. i've tried site in firefox & opera and nothing.

I'm going to be voting for Toejam&Earl myself.. not one i've played but heard alot about.

I'm guessing they will probally end up releasing most of them overtime though.. and that this is just a clever poll to gain interest

*TheTrancelator* · 14-08-2009, 8:34 PM

Just reloaded the site, and now the option to vote is there! Hm... maybe they were working on something behind the scenes

Over 130 new votes in the last minute

Edit: wonder what stops people from using proxys and casting lots of votes on a certain game..

Rorifett · 14-08-2009, 8:45 PM

Ahh, got that by deleting my browser history and refreshing... Hmm.. Nightshift tonight needs me doing something to pass the time...

*TheTrancelator* · 14-08-2009, 8:51 PM

Went from 1100 votes to 1900+

Seems everyone is rooting for old jim!

BananaTiger · 15-08-2009, 3:19 PM

Voted for Shining Force myself. Loved that game!

Squirrel Madras · 17-08-2009, 9:57 AM

Aww no Road Rash 3!!

(EA are probably too tight)

Went for Shinobi

*TheTrancelator* · 18-08-2009, 7:45 PM

It seem's earthworm jim ( which was #1 ) has been removed and the votes have been reset ( Already over 4900 though ) so now Toejam are #1

i'm guessing they have removed jim as he was obviously the clear winner and are going to put him and another up.. who knows

Also.. wonder why they are using the Alpha protocall site to host the images, the publisher for that is still SEGA but still.

I don't remember Wonderboy in the last poll so I guess that one is a new addition.

I want Desert Strike or Strider

Wonderboy was there

He's still not doing well though!

SEGA America Blog | UPDATE: Genesis Poll

Quote:

SEGA Community,
We are excited and honored to see the enthusiasm that surrounds our Genesis 20th Anniversary poll for the next SEGA game to be released on Xbox Live Arcade. We’ve been overwhelmed with the number of votes we’ve received. Thank you for the support that you’ve shown in the past few days.
Unfortunately, due to a licensing issue, we are no longer able to offer Earthworm Jim as an option in our poll. It was announced earlier today that Gameloft will be bringing Earthworm Jim to Xbox Live Arcade along with several other platforms. We are excited that our fans will soon be able to play this game.
However, we are still moving ahead with our plans to release Genesis-era SEGA games on Xbox Live Arcade. We understand that some people who voted for Earthworm Jim may have voted for another game on the poll if they had known that Earthworm Jim was not an option. So to be fair to everyone, we have reset our poll and it is open for voting once more. We encourage you to vote for your favorite game once per day, with Friday being the last day of voting. We will still announce our winner on Saturday, August 22nd.
Thank you again for your enthusiasm, and happy voting!

Good news all round then! so jim is deffo gonna be up..

gameloft though..

SkilledNutter · 20-08-2009, 9:02 AM

none of them

WE WANT ROAD RASH!

Rorifett · 20-08-2009, 9:40 AM

EA were saying there was possibilites of Road Rash coming to XBLA somewhere... I'll search for a link!

Ahh, sorry my mistake, they were re-trademarking the title... Was purely speculation that the games were getting a re-release. Sorry if anyone's heart-rate shot up through the roof there!

I reckon they should all stop slacking and just port every oldschool/classic game ever made and make a fortune win win ££$$

Maybe to optimistic though??

Toejam & Earl is the winner

Sorry to dig up an old thread guys.

But Toejam & Earl is something I've been looking forward to for a while.

I know Earth Worm Jim has been released now, so, anyone know of any info regarding TJ&E. I've done some google work but not found much

True I loved that especially in the co-op when the screen tore apart and came back together

That's innovation

The soundtrack (music) was amazing aswell. It's just a classic game that I know I'd play on XBL. I've got it here at work but obviously I don't play that.

If it's coming and it's had the same work done on it as EWJ, then that'd be the icing on the cake for me

Rorifett · 01-07-2010, 11:59 AM

Fingers crossed for TJ&E! I love the music as much as I loved the game, wasn't entirely taken in by the second one but still enjoyed boogying to the beats at the coin machines
