To celebrate the 1st year of the Replay show we have included two extra runners-up that have featured in a number of previous polls. Therefore, this month, we have a slight change in the voting: two winning games will go forward for review in June. You can still participate by picking-up/playing just one of the winning games, or you can play both if you have the time.

The nominations are below. You may vote twice in the poll for your first and second choices. Listen to the podcast to hear why each game deserves your vote. You may change your vote at any time.

Alone in the Dark (360/PC/PS3)
Sensible World of Soccer (XBLA)
Marbleblast Ultra (XBLA)
The Club (360/PS3)
Dead Rising (360/Wii)
Shadowrun (360/PC)

The poll close on Thursday 6th May at 1725.

I've gone for Dead Rising and The Club. I would love to see Dead Rising win though having never played it and needing an excuse to pick it up. I've heard lots of mixed things about it.

This is the easiest vote yet. Dead Rising for me, although I wouldn't mind The Club winning.
Dead Rising is the one I'd prefer to win it, I already own it and I keep meaning to go back to it, the sequel is out later in the year and it would be truly nice to go back to it to see whether it's as good as I remember.

Although all playing would have to be done before the 13th for me, because from then on it's all about Alan Wake, Split/Second, Red Dead Redemption, UFC 2010 Undisputed and possibly Skate 3 and Blur too.

Even if people play a few hours to get an impression of a game they've played before; we want to hear about your thoughts :)

Feel really guilty and more than a little bit rubbish that, after buying both the Replay games the last two months, I've not even put them in the drive... really wanted to do the Lego podcast but my head wasn't in a gaming place this week... will hopefully get past the gaming burnout next week and back to contributing in a more useful fashion...

The tweaks to the format are interesting and hopefully it will get more people to get involved next month (myself included!)

I really wanted to play Lego Star Wars, but didn't want to settle for less than the TCS edition, but at the price I couldn't justify it, £25 is a lot of money when you're desperately saving for May, so I was really disappointed to miss out on it. I'm also a little burned out on gaming, I've abused Battlefield: Bad Company 2 and very little else, it's still the best game I've played this year (and probably the best multiplayer of the generation) but it's put me off playing for a while.

I think that Dead Rising would certainly be an attractive one to replay, it's the perfect mix of games, you can drop in and out all you want or you can play for extended periods of time, you can play serious or silly and it still has the best mix of achievements on Xbox360.

Great show this month guys, and thanks for the mention!

Would love to get back into the Replay saddle, but not sure I'll be able to find the time this month (again). Even presuming I manage to resist Alan Wake (which I've suddently developed a real hankering for, although I'm trying to limit myself to a maximum of 1 new game per month), I'd have to get all my replaying done before Red Dead Redemption comes out in a couple of weeks, because I'm pretty sure I'll have trouble tearing myself away from that when I get my hands on it.

Alone in the Dark could be an interesting one to go with, as it looks like strong comparisons could be drawn with Alan Wake. I think I'll refrain from voting, and wait to see what gets picked.

Dead Rising definitely. I thought this was awesome but I found it quite difficult. I never got round to completing it :(

As we're all price as well as time sensitive at the moment I just had a quick scan of CEX for rough pricing.

Dead Rising (360) - £15
Shadowrun - £4.50
Alone in the Dark - £4
The club - £4.50
Sensi Soccer - 800ms points (approx £6)
Marbleblast Ultra - 400points (approx £3)

Quiet surprised by Dead Rising, I'm sure that it also used to be around the £5 mark, maybe with the sequel on the way demand has picked up.

I've ordered Dead Rising "Chop til you Drop" (Wii) as I have completed the 360 version twice. £15 new from ShopTo.

This little election is over and the poll has now closed. We will be featuring Dead Rising as the main game, and Sensible World of Soccer as a "quick look".

We would love for YOU to take part: either by leaving a review on this thread, on Twitter (#tgsreplay) or on the Podcast (Sun 30th May @ 2pm).

Remember:
- You can play either game, or both
- You don't have to finish the game or put in 20 hours, just play enough to air your opinion
- If you've played the game before we'd still like to hear your views, and how well it plays today

Happy Replay Gaming

Had a quick blast of Sensi last night, damn it's tricky with a dpad, think i'll need to go with Xan's recommendation of a stick.

Wow the top Sensiplayer on the leaderboards has over 4000 games played. Looks like you could crack the top 5 with a short tournament.

Dead Rising - Chop til you drop (Wii) is really quite good. Streamlined compared to 360 and you have multiple save slots!
