Default Best Video Game 1988-1994 Round 2

Ok, I made it a double elimination event, in an attempt to fix the bad seeding from earlier; I moved some of the matches around. I put the whole thing on bracketmaker to make it easier to follow.

Here is the link to the bracketmaker page.

I've decided 1 day is sufficient to get good results, so at least until the last few rounds I'll leave it as 1 day.

Without further ado, round 2:

Wow. Just to see X-Com losing to Sim City 2000 makes this a crime against humanity.

Wookie - I don't think a lot of people know what X-Com is. They're just voting for the one they've heard of.

durron - A lot of good games here. I'm sure plenty of people will respond with "OMGWTF!!11 WHERE'S xxxx???" but I say nice work.

Is there anyone who'll pipe up and say they voted for Sim City 2k? Has you played both?

And SimCity 2000 sucked. So boring. I always put it in the MYST category of games old people bought just to feel like they were using their $2000 computers.

That's a great description. I played Sim City 2000. I thought it was fairly fun, but, yeah, it's in the "Myst" genre. It's one of the least deserving titles to be involved in this poll, perhaps along with Super Mario RPG and Sonic 3. To see it taking down the best game on this list is pretty disgusting. No one has chimed in to extol the virtues of SC2k. I think people are just voting for it because they have never heard of XCom.

Both of these have a chance to make it deep in the loser's bracket.
