Due to budget restraints I sometimes throw upon myself, I am consigned to purchase only two video games a year. Well, it's the end of June, so that time has come!

However, in the latest era of video games, there are just too many 'greats' on the market! So, guess what? I need your help to decide. (No, this is not Hurt/Heal PC games! Wink)

I am deciding between six games. All I want you to do is vote for the one you think I should buy. Heres the thing- I MUST buy the game that gets the most votes! I promise I shall. I will even upload a picture of myself playing the game! (This has the added bonus of getting a glimpse of the legend that is Nytik!!)

Note: This poll has also been submitted to GameSpot. The votes will be combined at the end of the poll.

And the contenders are:

-The Sims 3 (1)

-Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box (0)

-Grand Theft Auto IV (1)

-Prototype (2)

-Empire: Total War (2)

-Warhammer 40,000: Dawn Of War II (0)

Sorry, Kepler I don't think that was one of the options.

I already get books. I get so many for Christmas I actually read them until AFTER the next Christmas!

So I don't need any.

Prototype, so far I have only seen the box art, and that was enough for me. If Sims 3 is like Sims 2, your just going to kill the people, and it gets boring fast, and you actually have to start to play the game, do you have any idea how boring that game gets?

Also a half vote for Burnout, thats always fun.

Thanks for your vote, shadowslayer.

For those interested, the votes for GTA IV and Empire: Total War come from Gamespot.

sorry don't know any of those games. When I'm not playing chess working on my home-based business. Let me know if you want to try that.

Has to be Prototype or Empire: Total War. Both look good and i would buy either of them if I had enough money...

My 1 vote (which is a shame that I have to choose) is for Prototype - now go and buy it!

Thanks for your votes, guys.

Unfortunately, when I combine these with those from Gamespot, it would appear all games have their virtues and it's a very tough decision to make!

I have to say it's a very strange six games to choose from.

I own GTA IV and Burnout Paradise, just the standard one, and my girlfriend has The Sims... But out of those six, it has to be 7) Killzone 2. No doubt.

SaulHudson, do you think you could limit yourself to one of the options?

Do it for me! Smile

Ok, thanks Saul...

If anyone is wondering how the Gamespot poll is going, Grand Theft Auto is currently just in the lead...
