goo Ranking this week looked at a survey entitled which game series would people like to play on a big screen 3D television, which implies that the game series chosen get remade for 3D.

Demographics

Over the 21st and 22nd of September 2010 1,072 members of the goo Research online monitor group completed a private internet-based questionnaire. 68.2% of the sample were female, 10.4% in their teens, 18.0% in their twenties, 29.8% in their thirties, 26.2% in their forties, 8.7% in their fifties, and 7.0% aged sixty or older. Note that the score in the results refers to the relative number of votes for each option, not a percentage of the total sample.

Not placing anywhere on the list is the Doom series – I’d be interested in seeing a 3D remake of at least Doom 1, preferably with the original sprite-based 3D. The source code is out there, so I’m sure some enterprising soul will remake it (if they haven’t already) for a 3D-supporting device.

And just in case you are wondering what “Loveplus” is, perhaps this will explain:

I think you made a typo on the male/female split.

Not sure I understand this “relative to the number of votes” business. Is it like MVP voting in the major leagues, where a #1 vote is worth more points than a #2? If 100 doesn’t equal 100 percent or 100 votes, what does it mean?

    Ahh, OK, typo fixed.

    As for the votes, imagine 500 people chose Super Mario. 380.5 people chose Mario Kart, so they get rated as (380.5/500) * 100 = 76.1 and so on.
