TOP 128 — Week 7 — Poll 2

Post by This Old Neon »

Welcome to the #BGE2020 Elimination Round of 128!

Each game is seeded based on its performance in the two opening rounds of pools. Every game in the Upper Bracket has defeated multiple other games in 1-on-1 polls to get to this point. These are still the best of the best.

Polls are updated weekly, typically on Monday. Check back throughout the week to make sure you don't miss a vote!

HOW TO VOTE

This is easy. You only get one vote per poll. The game with the most votes wins. In the event of a tie, the higher seed advances, so don't get complacent!

Zero Mission is just an OK execution of the Metroid formula with some navel-gazing lore layered on top of a pretty rote game (Ridley, Zero Suit).

New Vegas is one of the stand-outs of modern game narratives.

Zero Mission is a fun toy. All the pieces work, and it provides entertainment. But New Vegas is art. It's actually in the conversation for one of the best games ever beyond just this silly contest. Zero Mission is not.
