Your favorite runners-up and also-rans from previous polls are back for another chance! All five games in this poll have appeared before and received some votes, but not enough to win. This time, one of them will come away with a victory. The losers of this poll may reappear later, but probably not for a while. The next poll will have a completely fresh slate. The current plan is to have a "remix" poll every fifth time (so #5, #10, etc). If this works out well, I may discontinue the practice of carrying over the second-place game each week, due to the overlap with the remix polls.
Regarding the selection of games for this poll: major factors were the number of votes received in earlier polls, diversity of platforms, cost/availability, and length. We've had some long games recently (Eternal Darkness, Secret of Mana), so it seems like a good time to have a shorter game that we can delve into more fully in a reasonable amount of time. The decision of one week or two will depend on the game selected and whether we think it can sustain multiple weeks of discussion.
You will not be able to view poll results until after voting, so please vote for the game you honestly want to play and discuss the most. Feel free to lobby undecided voters in this thread.
