Bottom 768 — Week 9 — Poll 7

Welcome to the #BGE2020 Elimination Round Lower Bracket!

Each game in the lower bracket is still seeded based on its performance in the two opening rounds of pools! Every game in the lower bracket has already been defeated by another game in a 1-on-1 poll to get to this point. This is their chance to claw their way back into the main event... but the stakes are high. The games that lose in these polls are out of the tournament for good! The games that survive will face the next crop of upper bracket losers in the next round.

Polls are updated weekly, typically on Saturday... or 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!

This is one of those votes where I have to ask whether it's better to vote for the game that is 100% influences, with only limited amounts of real fun (ever stay up too late at night playing Pong or a variant thereof, only to show up at work/for class bleary-eyed and groggy the next AM? No?), or the game that objectively has much more substance but which has had little influence and which also has several deep flaws. In this case, Pong wins out - for what it is, it's executed well, and it was a critical forerunner of later games.
