75,000 players have voted on the best mods and indie titles of the year over at IndieDB and ModDB - who says PC gaming is dead?
A lot of people feel that the true advantage of the PC as a gaming platform lies not in its hardware, but in just how democratic it is as a platform. It's insanely accessible, and there few brighter areas of that expression than mod-making and indie game development.
Of course, indie developments also doing great guns on mobile devices, too, but modding... that's pure PC perfection.
And speaking of perfection, that guys over at the IndieDB and ModDB - two sites dedicated to supporting and cataloguing the efforts of devs and mod-makers, have announced their top 100 games and mods of 2011.
Of course, this is just the first round of voting. Now that the top ranked titles and mods are in, it's time to narrow down the field to get to the very cream of the crop. Voting will be open until the 20th of December, so get on over there and have your say.
PS: If you're wondering why we have a TIE Defender as the illo for this piece, it's becuase it's from one of the top 100 mods, First Strike for Battlefield 2142. How cool is that?!
