SA Community's Top 20 Games You Must Play Tie-Breaking!
Tie breaking and all that.
The deadline is here and I received a total of 101 lists!
That's pretty damn impressive, and the rankings are nearly done to boot. As soon as one more step is complete, I will start writing the final product! That step is dealing with a few tie problems.
See, for any place that had two or three games tied I counted it, but any with four or more is really making this over-kill. So, I need some breaking done before I can start writing. I won't reveal what is possibly going where, but here are a few blocks that need to be thined out.
Block #1
A. Final Fantasy IV
B. Sonic 3/Sonic and Knuckles
C. Super Street Fighter II Turbo
D. Spec Ops: The Line
Block #2
A. Earthbound
B. Rayman Origins
C. Super Smash Bros. Brawl
D. Sonic '06
Block #3
A. Team Fortress 2
B. Okami
C. Super Mario Bros.
D. Pokemon HG/SS
Block #4
A. Minecraft
B. Tales of Symphonia
C. Pokemon Black/White
D. Pokemon FR/LG
E. Pokemon Ruby/Sapphrie/Emerald
F. Portal 2
G. Paper Mario and the Thousand-Year Door
Block #5
A. Deus Ex
B. Bioshock
C. Mega Man X
D. Batman: Arkham City
E. Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow
Block #6
A. Resident Evil 4
B. Final Fantasy VII
C. Super Mario 64
D. TMNT: Turtles in Time
Block #7
A. Metal Gear Solid 3
B. Braid
C. Xenoblade Chronicals
D. Dark Souls
E. Banjo-Tooie
F. Panzer Dragoon Saga
Each of these blocks represents a slot on the list and each game in each block is tied with the other games in said block. What I need is some voting for the blocks to decide what stays and goes. Now listen up, because this doesn't work like the lists did.
To vote, first pick the game you want most for each block and the one you don't want second and a neutral option third. To do so, just leave a "Y" for "Yes," a "N" for "No" and a "M" for "Meh." For example, if you were to vote for block #1, your votes may look like this:
#1
Y: Spec Ops: The Line
N: Final Fantasy IV
M: Sonic 3/Sonic and Knuckles
Y votes receive two points, M votes receive one point and N votes subtract one point. What I want is for all of you to vote like this for each block by leaving a comment or using the SA forum topic. The deadline is January 29th at 5 PM Central. I'll cast my votes for any tie breaking situations that may happen if there's ties in the tie breaking. I'll prepare a new update at this time to tell you all I'll start writing up the list and it will be done when it's done.
Remember, you vote like this:
One Y vote, one N vote and one M vote.
Y = +2
N = -1
M = +1
Make these choices for each block. You do not have to vote for each block, but it would be greatly appreceated.

I tried to rate mine based in order of what game someone new to gaming should play and experience. Super Mario is familiar to everyone thanks to Nintendo marketing so I left him out to try and bring out more enjoyable experiences for someone to become as enthralled with gaming as we all are.
