Welcome to the first round of #BGE2020 pools!

Each game is randomly seeded into pools using the set generator at Random.org. There's no seeding, no ranking, and no preference or prioritization.

The results of the pools will determine how each game stacks up in the elimination rounds, coming later this year.

HOW TO VOTE

Voting is ranked, but it's not super intuitive, so listen up.

• You have 6 total votes to distribute.
• You can only select up to 3 options.
• You can only give each option up to 3 votes.
• NOTE: The number you pick is not the RANK of your choice (i.e. 1st, 2nd, 3rd), but the number of VOTES you're giving it.
• The more votes (bigger numbers) a game gets, the better for that game.

EXAMPLES

• You could pick three games and order them by giving them 3, 2, and 1 votes.
• If you like three games equally, you could give them 2, 2, and 2 votes.
• If you only like two games, you could give them 3 and 3 votes (or 3 and 2, etc.).

This gives you a lot of granularity for how you assign your votes and thereby a lot of influence over which games can do well. Use your power wisely!

If you have questions, ask before voting!

.hack (I still need to replay those on PS4) and Sands of Time for me. The former fir being unique and fun with tons of content. The latter for being an incredible action / adventure game.

Kid Icarus Uprising is in my top 10 games of all time, so 3 votes.

You talk this series up quite a bit. I should give it a try on PS4 as well.

Nothing really stood out to me as a clear #1 here, so I carved my votes evenly.

They have flaws but I really enjoy the games. It’s no Shadow Hearts, but what is really?

Kid Icarus: Uprising is very good. Shame it will likely never get re-released on account of its complex, DS-reliant controls. Agent Under Fire is probably not as good as I remember, but it was one of my first GameCube games, and I played the hell out of it. Last vote for Mario Tennis, which may still be the best entry in its series.
