Default Best Video Game 1988-1994 Round 3

Another day, another round down. I'm sure many will be disappointed to see some of these games be gone... I personally am upset to see Star Control 2 go 0-2. 8 great games gone, only 24 remain.

Remember, the complete bracket is here.

So, without further ado, the matches:

Well, I guess we'll see which under appreciated game has the better fanatics in the XCom v. Chrono Trigger match up. I'm also anxious to see SC2K bite the dust now that it's up against a game that everyone has played. I'm curious for the results of FFVI versus Mario 3, and to see if Tecmo survives.

I love Mario Kart and all, but there is no way Contra can lose. Mario 3 and FF6 should be the closest match this time.

Wow, a lot of tough choices here. Now that most of the weaker games have been knocked down to the loser's bracket, the winner's bracket matchups are tough. It's heartbreaking to force me to pick between SF2 and Link to the Past.

Glad to see another easy matchup for Tetris.

EDI: It's fun to try to visualize the Punch Out vs. Mortal Kombat battle.

Contra losing to Mario Kart is a travesty.

I absolutely love mario kart, but the SNES version has nothing on Contra. I think the N64 version is what too many people are basing this on.

Contra is the best game of its time.

It's amazing just how hard SC2 is getting pwned by Tetris after winning two matches.

I agree. SMB3 and MM2 are may favorites for NES. These poll's are forcing me to make harder decisions than I'm normally used to making in everyday life. A Link to the Past vs. Street Fighter 2 is a super heavyweight bout that makes me want to vomit.

Well, it absolutely didn't deserve to be on this list. Unfortunately, it was matched up against two awesome games that not enough people played in the first two rounds. I bet if you put Myst on this list it'd get a similar amount of love - wins against anything except the games that have been played as much as it has, in spite of the fact that it sucks.

You really think that the N64 version of Mario Kart is better than the original? Wow. I'm not huge on Mario Kart (although my roommates and I have been playing a lot of Double Dash the past few weeks), but I was under the impression that it was generally understood that the SNES one was better than the N64 one.
