LATEST FEATURES Being A Console Is Actually Xbox One's Worst Asset
Microsoft's newest console has lots of different features, but video games might hold the device back from the software giant's true intentions.

GOTY Community Choice: Round 2 - Turbo Hyper Fighting

Posted on Friday, December 7 @ 21:00:00 Eastern by

As the dust settled on Round 1, it became apparent that the nominees had one job to do: secure a lead early and hold on to it for dear life. That's exactly what happened between community favorites Journey and X-COM: Enemy Unknown. Despite being up against a blockbuster franchises from Rockstar Games and Microsoft Studios, the scarved, hooded mountain people and alien-threat eliminators will continue on to the next round.

Guild Wars 2 also stuck to this strategy, beating out Retro City Rampage for the hearts and minds of our impressionable community members. Hey, at least you don't have to pay a subscription fee to keep voting, right? Finally, The Walking Dead ate the brains of the entire Investigation Team and at least 40 other shoppers at Junes, leaving Persona 4: Golden to try a new line of work outside the TV World.

Now on to Round 2. If your favorite got eliminated, don't stop voting. Help a rival game defeat your nemesis or maybe throw your weight behind a game you only just picked up! As always, remember to vote for the game you want to be this year's Community Choice Game of the Year.

Dishonored VS Assassin's Creed III

Journey VS X-COM: Enemy Unknown

    Is this one of those things where you just hit control V and see what's there to help you get past the filter?

    Journey

    ACIII did some things really well, but was ultimately a bit too unfocused to really grab me. That's something that always bothered me about the series, and though the semi-functional open world stealth and simple combat carried the games surprisingly far, ACIII just feels uninspired, especially after 2 and Brotherhood.

    I absolutely adore XCOM and thinks a perfect example of how to do a remake right, but Journey is one of the most perfect games I've ever played. I've rarely had a game hit me that hard, especially one so minimalist.

    I figured XCOM vs Journey would be the harder choice to make this round. I don't know which I would pick honestly.

    This is a close call. I'm a little shocked XCOM is beating Journey, though. ACIII and Dishonored seem about even.
