The impossible appears to be possible after all. Civilization has finally
been beaten off number one, with X-Wing taking the lead. Let's see how
long this game can hold.
Another interesting news item is that this Top 100 has made it into Game
Bytes magazine. With others like Id Software, Maxis and Computer Gaming
World already watching this chart closely, we seem to be turning into a
well respected source of information for several kinds of readers. Great!
Just keep the votes coming.
