#BGE2020 - Round 2 - Pool 5

Post by This Old Neon »

Welcome to the second round of #BGE2020 pools!

Each game is randomly seeded into pools using the sequence 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... realistically in early 2021.

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! :neon:

Full votes for the excellent No More Heroes. Last year with the announcement of No More Heroes 3, I realized I hadn't played the original since its release. I wanted to know if it was actually that good, or if the blood and violence was enough for an adolescent boy's tastes to make up for mediocre gameplay. I decided to purchase the PS3 version so I could replay it in HD and snag a couple trophies along the way. It was well worth it! It held up quite well, I think, and it remains one of my very favorite games. Still really looking forward to NMH3!

Also cast a single vote to the underwhelming Luigi's Mansion 3 and the cute Jetpac.
You got BOOST power!
