Welcome to the #BGE2020 Elimination Round of 256!

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 Sunday or 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!

Pikmin 2 is so much fun and ramps up the difficulty by 1000 compared to the other games. I love 3 more but it's still a massive improvement on 1 and a series I adore.

I'm one of the only people—or, one of the only Castlevania fans at least—who's not a huge fan of Rondo. If this were Pikmin 1, I might have been inclined to give it the slight edge based on originality and creativity alone. But since this is merely the sequel, I'll either abstain or come back and vote for Rondo later.

Rondo of Blood is awesome. It’s only flaw is being too difficult imho. That said, it’s fair - just cruel. Also it makes beating levels all that much more satisfying. I haven’t finished one in awhile though….have been stuck…

2 completely fixed all the major issues of 1 though and is a far far superior title than 1 in that sense.

In that sense, at least. But the main reason it would get a vote at all (from me) is for creativity and originality. I'd vote for Pikmin 1 over Pikmin 2 if they were directly matched, for example.

That's fair.
