I'm honestly really pleasantly surprised that FNV won. Certainly worthy of the title though.

Most of the games I like made it to top 20.Was mainly rooting for GTA SA, but this is fine too and 3rd place ain't bad.

Suikoden 2 shocked me by making it all the way to 4th place. I figured one of the Bioware games I nominated would have done the best out of my choices.

Also, it seems like this generation of gaming isn't that beloved by CE. Only Witcher 3 made the top 20.

An excellent winner. The Fallout Series has some of the best games I've ever played, and is a series I can always go back to. New Vegas is an absolutely fantastic game and the best possible winner from a relativity weak final 5.

Also Final Fantasy losing is always good.

I think we've argued this before, so I'll just leave it at, I really, really don't like the Final Fantasy series.

This. It never fails to surprise me when people nominate, but don't participate and then come back 70 rounds later and go "What? My nom went out so early!"

It's worse when people who have never participated come in & bitch about the choices then leave.

Anyway, thanks & shout out to @WafflehouseJK the originator of this, for whom I finished this contest off.

Hope everyone's having a good summer!

To be fair, Waffle's schedule was busy, and rounds would often go up at odd times whenever he had a minute. I lost track of a lot round like that.

Tbf to Bloodbourne, the first two rounds were hectic and went by in just a few hours before Waffle changed it. You could save 3 games per hour iirc.

Try actually participating before you come in to whine.

Also, you have terrible taste.

Damn, sad I missed the finale. Would have voted for FF6.

Thanks for finishing this one out for me pfh. And sorry this one was so hectic guys, went through a lot of major life changes during the course of this one, from graduating, breaking up with my girlfriend, moving to another state and starting a new job; just kinda lost the time and motivation to keep up with this. Honestly probably should have passed it off to someone else a long time ago, this should have been done literally months ago lol.

Thanks to all of you guys who have been participating in these, whether it be just this one or you've been involved in these for years. (Fuck, I've been running these for actual years now, WTF lol). These were a lot of fun to manage, and i hope you guys enjoyed them as much as I did.

Calling it quits on running these indefinitely. If I get my life sorted out a little better, maybe I'll start them back up again, but that likely wont be for a very long time.

Again, thank you guys so much for participating in these. It's been a blast.
