It's the most epic event of the decade, when thousands and thousands of gamers the world over get together to decide which is better: Final Fantasy VII or Ocarina of Time, over the course of 25 days

128 games enter with 4 sets of 1v1 match ups per day until one game emerges victorious.

You can enter a bracket like march madness here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/bge20_entry and if you win you win 2000 dollars worth of gamer swag, so there's no reason not to. You're gonna wanna register an account anyway before the event kicks off so you can vote every day, natch.

Battles begin Nov. 5th, on GameFAQS' 20th anniversary. It's going to be loving awesome.

I didn't own a N64 as a kid so I don't like any of the Zelda games except Legend of Zelda II, which I played on my Uncle's NES with the cool rear end gold cartridge. I also never played any Final Fantasy games. So I'm freaking baffled why everyone thinks those are like the best RPGs ever

Thanks, I picked them all while pretending to have bad opinions so games like Dragon Age beat Mario Galaxy.

I put Undertale as Best Game Ever because it's what is on people's minds.

In spirit I agree but Super Mario Maker, Bloodborne and MGSV deserve to be considered.

When in doubt, Final Fantasy anything will probably take it.

Tetris vs Pokemon R/B is a mean one...
