 |
|
You guys know how this goes. GameRevolution will be publishing our Game of the Year picks soon and your nominations in each category will be called out in each of those post (if we've chosen a game in each category).
But enough about us! We want to let the world know what the GameRevolution community thinks! That's why we're going to tournament style our way down to one game to rule them all. Your nominations for Game of the Year will enter and only one will leave... maybe a little bruised, a little beaten, but all the better for it. Let's get to it with the first round!
Bastion
Vs
Batman: Arkham City

| Batman. Because even if I feel bad that Bastion won't get more votes Batman is still the better game. |

Yeah, it was...
Also, is this being done in brackets? Or are there going to be multiple matches for each game, compare the averages, and then do brackets? Because the latter is a better idea...

Just brackets. I heard from higher ups when we're aiming to publish our Game of the Year awards and brackets are faster. |

Nevertheless, Bastion.

Time crunch, huh? It does double your tournament time, and adds the possiblity of burn out.

Bad first match for Bastion. Still, I'd say it was the better game.
Definitely Bastion for me. |

| Bastion. I haven't played Arkham City yet but I was blown away by Bastion for it's visual design and best game narration ever. |

Pretty sure that if you can't spell his nickname correctly, your vote doesn't count.
Anyway, Bastion gets my vote!
EDIT: And assuming that non-fan I quoted's vote still counts, I do believe they're both at 8 votes. |
