-DarthMaul-

You're almost like Teuf, I never seen you with another till now :P

Wow some of those match ups were brutal.

Tough ones for me were:

LittleBigPlanet / Borderlands

Portal / Stalker

Catherine / InFamous

Plus Bayonetta / and Vanquish in Round 1?!? Brutal matchup for Platinum Games' fans.

And poor Motorstorm never had a chance with the Round 1 matchup with Mass Effect.

Should have had enough for a 64 Game Tourney.CajunShooter

I was originally going for a 32 start up to eliminate down to a final 2. Then I quickly saw that 32 wasn't enough, but the problem being, and even after consulting with a few other mods, I couldn't come up with 64. And we are talking about completely new IPs, no continuations of or ties to games of previous gens. No reboots either. Just couldn't find 64 brand new IPs, so I changed the structure to end at a final 3, and expanded the startup at 48. Even with some cuts here, it was still better then when I was restricted to 32.

48 is cool though. I can't wait to see how it turns out. Kind of want to do my own bracket and see if I can predict it.

Games that could have made the list:

• Sins of a Solar Empire
• Supreme Commander
• Amnesia: The Dark Descent
• Enslaved
• Rock Band
• Dance Central
• Condemened
• Viva Pinata
• Rocksmith
• El Shaddai
• Bulletstorm
• Darksiders
• Shadows of the Damned
• Eternal Sonata
• Blue Dragon
• Singularity
• Joe Danger
• PixelJunk Series
• Xenoblade
• Boom Blox
• Endless Ocean

That's about it for games that I could find that could have made it on and depending on matchups might have advanced a round.

• No More Heroes

20. Alan Wake

21. Heavy Rain

22. Bioshock

23. Crysis

24. Resistance

Didn't expect to see so many people choose Portal over STALKER, tbh. I thought STALKER had some sort of cult following or something to the game and was a real pleasure and treat! :o

Very unusal....>_>

Didn't expect to see so many people choose Portal over STALKERGoyoshi12

The upper left faction looks deadly. Very reminiscent.

Uncharted, Gears Of War, Dark/Demon Souls, Bastion, LBP, The Witcher and Portal are all heavy hitters which have to beat eachother to make it to the final.

However the upper right looks like an opportunity for a clear winner.

Mass Effect is up with MNR, Bayonetta, Vanquish, Motorstorm, Dead space, Just Cause, Alan Wake, Infamous, Catherine, Dead Rising, LA Noire, BlazBlue, Mirrors Edge, GRID and Saints row. I think it's pretty obvious who would make it to the finals in that area... My my.

From the third group, It seems as though the Batman series is the probable winner, but Minecraft and Bioshock may pose a threat.

I predict that the Final 3 contenders will be:

Mass Effect
Batman: Arkham
Uncharted or Portal.

Winner will be Mass Effect.

1. Demon's Soul/Dark Souls
2. Assassin's Creed
3. STALKER
4. The Witcher
5. Uncharted
6. Gears of War
7. Little Big Planet
8. Bastion
9. Batman Arkham Series
10. ARMA
11. Mad World
12. Left 4 Dead
13. Mass Effect
14. Dead Space
15. Saint's Row
16. L.A. Noire
17. Grid
18. InFamous
19. Vanquish
20. Alan Wake
21. Dragon Age
22. BioShock
23. Crysis
24. Minecraft

The definative list, all other lists are inferior.

1. Demon's Souls / Dark Souls
2. Assassin's Creed
3. Portal
4. The Witcher
5. Uncharted
6. Lost Odyssey
7. Little Big Planet
8. Bastion (seriously though such a hard choice)
9. The Darkness
10. Limbo
11. Metro 2033
12. No More Heros
13. Mass Effect
14. Dead Space
15. Mirror's Edge
16. Blaze Blue
17. Dead Rising
18. Catherine (Seriously far superior to all in this list)
19. Vanquish
20. Alan Wake
21. Heavy Rain
22. Bioshock
23. 3D Dot Hero
24. Resistance

If you didn't vote for Catherine...shame on you.

While I haven't played every game on the list, I'm still going to vote for whatever floats my boat. :P 1. Resonance of Fate 2. Split/Second 3. STALKER 4. The Witcher 5. World in Conflict 6. Lost Odyssey 7. Borderlands 8. Bastion 9. The Darkness 10. ARMA 11. Mad World 12. No More Heroes 13. Motorstorm 14. Dead Space 15. Mirror's Edge 16. BlazBlue 17. GRID 18. Catherine 19. Vanquish 20. Just Cause 21. Dragon Age 22. Company of Heroes 23. Crysis 24. Minecraft I demand that Bayonetta and Vanquish not battle in the first round. WTF is this sh*t? Meanwhile we have two stupid titles like Resistance and Minecraft battling in round 24? You have to be kidding me? Pit Bayonetta against that crap Resistance and Vanquish against Minecraft. At least than I'd be able to support two of my favorite IPs. Cold-hearted SW rules, making me pick between Bayo and Vanquish. FURIOUS!!!!NeonNinja

He set it up so Mass Effect could take an easy route to the Finals!:evil:

Obvious conspiracy to get a sub-par IP (Mass Effect) to win is obvious, Adobe.

I mean, seriously.

Oh, and the most important new IP is Gears of War, and anyone who disagrees is an idiot.

"Best" is obviously a worthless term nowadays if trash like Mass Effect gets votes.

Conspiracies..

lol.

Yeah, the way the matchups are designed, Mass Effect is pretty much guaranteed to get to the final 3.

I'm changing my vote to Motorstorm to counteract this chicanery.

Also, now that I think about it, there are some games that really deserved to be in the contest that were overlooked for lesser ones. Who even remembers Split Second anymore, as opposed to Layton or Shadow Complex? Or Braid, for that matter.
