This is the round where Tetris gets sent packing. It will be interesting seeing RB2 & Zelda: ALTTP play out.

I'll be surprised if RB2 doesn't win. It seems like the Lost of this tournament.

#1 Rock Band 2 (multi)
Vs.
#9 Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (SNES)

Zelda, easy. Rock Band is nothing more than a fun party game. LttP is one of my favorite games of all time and it still holds up tremendously. Just thinking about it makes me itchy to play it again.


#24Super Metroid (SNES)
Vs.
#25Tetris (Multi)

Super Metroid, not as easy this time, since Tetris is a true classic and the king of all puzzle games. But Super Metroid is more of a true "video game".


#4 GoldenEye (N64)
Vs.
#12 Resident Evil 2 (PS)

Neither have aged well, but I'll go with GoldenEye mostly due to it's fantastic multi-player, which I still have fond memories of.


#21 Grand Theft Auto III (PS2)
Vs.
#5 Call of Duty 4 (Multi)

Tough choice, maybe another GTA would get this, but between these two, I'll have to go with CoD4, which is probably this best made FPS thus far.


#2 Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES)
Vs.
#18 Super Mario Brothers (NES)

Another tough one, but Super Mario 3 has more gameplay to it than the first one.


#23 Super Mario World (SNES)
Vs.
#7 Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64)

OoT was a once and done sort of game - great while it lasted, but I have no desire to revisit it. Super Mario World is a game I can play again and again and have more fun each time I do.


#3 Bioshock (multi)
Vs.
#11 Metal Gear Solid (PS)

Bioshock - not a huge fan of Metal Gear games.


#14 Fallout 3 (360)
Vs.
#27 Legend of Zelda (NES)

Fallout 3 is great, but it just doesn't come close to delivering the magic that Zelda did back when I first played it.

pinata242

Rock Band 2
Super Metroid - though I love me some Tetris
Don't Care
Don't Care even more
Super Mario Bros. 3
I couldn't vote - This was the only tough one. I think OoT is the better game, but if I'm bored I'm far more likely to start SMW.
Bioshock
Legend of Zelda

#1 Rock Band 2 (multi)
vs
#9 Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (SNES)

I am one of the few people that don't like party games, and LttP is my favorite Zelda game of all time. Very easy win for Zelda here.


#24Super Metroid (SNES)
vs
#25Tetris (Multi)

I never had a Tetris addiction. Super Metroid was one of the best games for SNES. Easy win for Super Metroid.


#4 GoldenEye (N64)
vs
#12 Resident Evil 2 (PS)

I have always been a PC gamer mostly, so I never really saw the big deal with GoldenEye. Sure it was a big deal for console FPS, but PC FPS was already a lot better than that. Resident Evil 2 is easily the best Resident Evil game in the series. Easy win for RE2. I hope the RE2 remake (The Darkside Chronicles) lives up to the original.


#21 Grand Theft Auto III (PS2)
vs
#5 Call of Duty 4 (Multi)

I am indifferent here.


#2 Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES)
vs
#18 Super Mario Brothers (NES)

Mario vs Mario? lol The first game was a classic and single-handedly revived the industry after the crash in 1984, but Mario 3 improves upon the original in every way. Mario 3 wins.


#23 Super Mario World (SNES)
vs
#7 Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64)

This is a tough one. I love both games, but I have always been more of a Zelda fan than Mario fan, so Zelda wins slightly.


#3 Bioshock (multi)
vs
#11 Metal Gear Solid (PS)

Tough choice but MGS wins slightly.


#14 Fallout 3 (360)
vs
#27 Legend of Zelda (NES)

I don't care for "Elder Scrolls with guns." Zelda was my second favorite game on NES. (Punch Out was my favorite and I am still sad that it lost but oh well.) Zelda wins easily. Now if it had been Fallout 1 or 2 vs Zelda, it would have been a much more difficult decision.

Some tough ones

Zelda - This is close? Huh?
Super Metroid - I love Tetris but Super Metroid is just amazing
RE 2 - I'm sure Goldeneye will dominate but I'll go with the zombies.
GTAIII - Tossup mostly.
SMB3 - Figures these two are against eachother, I have to go with 3.
SMW - Another one that is sooo tough. I'll go with with Mario.
Bioshock - Pretty easy.
Zelda - Really easy.

#1 Rock Band 2 (multi)
Vs.
#9 Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (SNES)

Rock Band 2 It has it's own genre. Like GTA is to sandbox, Rock Band is to music games.

#24Super Metroid (SNES)
Vs.
#25Tetris (Multi)

Tetris I can play this game anytime. I'll be playing it till I die.

#4 GoldenEye (N64)
Vs.
#12 Resident Evil 2 (PS)

GoldenEye One of my favorite games of all-time. Great multiplayer memories, back when multiplayer consisted of friends in the room with you.


#21 Grand Theft Auto III (PS2)
Vs.
#5 Call of Duty 4 (Multi)

GTA III This is the hardest choice of this poll. GTA III gets the edge because it was the only reason why I bought a PS2. While COD4 is the greatest FPS of all-time, it's not enough to beat out the game that got me back into gaming.


#2 Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES)
Vs.
#18 Super Mario Brothers (NES)

Super Mario Bros. Never got the appeal of the 3rd. Dressing up like a rodent and falling with style was never my thing.


#23 Super Mario World (SNES)
Vs.
#7 Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64)

Super Mario World Great, great game. Second only to GoldenEye on the N64.

#3 Bioshock (multi)
Vs.
#11 Metal Gear Solid (PS)

Bioshock Even though I haven't finished this game yet, I don't care much for Metal Gear Solid.

#14 Fallout 3 (360)
Vs.
#27 Legend of Zelda (NES)

Fallout 3 Absolutely love it. It's the game that keeps giving.

orangecrush

It is nice to see so many close matches. Keep the votes comming.

COD4 is on the ropes. I'm hoping for it to nail a buzzer beater to win. Bioshock looks to be a lock and should make it to the final four.

orangecrush

One more day to vote. There are many close matchups and one tie. Keep on voting.

chess

Interesting...it's my first time voting, and it's kind of an interesting idea, but I would much rather have picked a "top 8"

Some were tough to choose between, and others, I could care less about either one.

I don't want to live in a world where I have to vote against Tetris but for Goldeneye.

PopcornTreeCt

Please vote for Fallout 3.

edstein

Please vote for COD4!!!

chess

Over Legend of Zelda?!

COD4 is an outstanding shooter but only incrementally better than its contemporaries. GTA III was revolutionary.
