I guess I'm the only one that thought 4 was great.

Here's my order: 4, 1, 2, 3

I rate them on the following criteria:
Drama: (inter-party turmoil, emotion and conflict)
3, 2, 4, 1

Technical: (difficulty in coding/programming, number of scenes and environments)
1, 4, 2, 3

Challenge: (difficulty for the player, puzzle completion)
4, 2, 1, 3

Plot: (actual gameplay impact, lack of being "on rails")
4, 1, 2, 3

Totals, using 4 for first spot and 1 for last spot:
1: 1 + 4 + 2 + 3 = 10
2: 3 + 2 + 3 + 2 = 10
3: 4 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 7
4: 2 + 3 + 4 + 4 = 13

I ended up putting 1 ahead of 2 because it was the first one, but I could see how people liked the second one better. I also liked 3 a lot, don't get me wrong, but it was a pure emotion episode, it didn't really innovate the game and the decisions you made meant very little. I believe episode 5 may cause me to rethink some of this, for example, if the decision to help or not help certain people from Episode 3 ends up mattering.
