This is a 24 bracket tournament where Comic Vine will pick the best video game of the decade!

Before we get started let me explain how this works.

- I will enter the games in a random generator and it will pick two games that will be put against each other, then you guys will vote on which game you prefer. The winner of that matchup moves on to the next round.

- We’ll start in round one with 24 video games, then they will be narrowed down to 12, then 6, then the finale with 3.

I would also like to clarify that I have gathered this list of 24 games by assessing several articles and videos for guidance, (as I have obviously not played every game on this list). If one of your favorite games did not make the cut, please forgive me, but also understand that this is a list compiled of what games are widely considered the best or are very popular and have sold many copies.

- Only one game per franchise is allowed.

Also, ask for a tag if you want to be tagged on the next post!

Now let’s get started with ROUND 3

@eslay03: Do you have to have played the games mentioned or is this a straight up popularity tournament on which game we'd prefer to play, or something like that?

@catlike: This is a tournament to decide what CV thinks is the best game of the decade. I don’t have a problem if you to vote for one game because you haven’t played the other game, but if you haven’t played either game I would recommend just passing on that round.

Also, its not a popularity tourney or something like that. It’s a tourney to find out the best game.

Hope that helps. :)

I haven't played any of these games. :((

Your response does help.

@catlike: I would recommend any of them! They’re all different from each other so there’s gotta be one that’s your style. Maybe you can try a few of them during quarantine.

Also, I hate that you can’t get in on the tournament action because you haven’t played the games, so I thought I’d let you know I’m planning on doing some other tourneys after this one, but I haven’t come up with an idea for one yet. If you have any sort of tourney you’d like to see maybe I can do it. It can be anything, movies, music, sports, etc.

You have any ideas?

An indie character popularity tournament probably.. But I don't want to be spoiled too much, eh actually I don't care too much about spoilers, but for Saga I don't want any spoilers.

But I appreciate it, thank you man! :)

Edit: Also I have played The Last of Us on this list, but I'm going to have to pass because I haven't played the other games and I just wouldn't feel it being fair giving TLoU a vote.

GTA 5 hands down portal 2 just not for me

@catlike: Thats not a bad idea! If I do do it I’ll probably wait till after the other video game character tourney is done first. Thanks for the suggestion!

And no problem!

GTAV leads 12-7

Yep, GTA.

14-7 GTAV
