Holy shit guys, no need to write paragraphs. Just neglect my vote. I don't really care anymore. I'm writing paragraphs directed at you because I'd like some justification for the criticism that was meant for a tournament that I took time out of my life to organize for this board. Does it really matter in the long run? No. I'm just pointing out flaws in your criticism, that I felt are incorrect. - I did not exclude games based on anything. The games were nominated and chosen by MicroStop as games considered great by this community.
- Saying that Halo and LOZ: OOT are the only games really worthy of being considered 'the greatest' isn't an accurate statement, though both titles are amazing.
Diablo, Hurricane, AC, and others know that I don't ever defend my points in this manner but I felt that I was justified in this instance because the criticisms coming my way weren't justified themselves. The only other time I've come off as a rager is with MJH, where I acted like an asshole. Regardless, if you'd like to just drop it then fine, I won't bother replying further in response to you.

I think you were rational, Ben.. I agree with your points. Thing Pepsiguy doesn't realise is these type of things are ALWAYS biased. "Greatest Video Game" will always have that flavoured opinion, it's never possible to have it presented as a pure fact.

Amid controversey, a winner is declared. Winning this tournament is GRAND THEFT AUTO: SAN ANDREAS. GTA SAN ANDREAS IS THE UNDISPUTED GREATEST VIDEO GAME!
Now it's time to dispute that. Said controversy, while I may have perhaps been a little snippy, has inspired an idea. A new tournament...challenging GTA SAN ANDREAS.
It won't begin right now, but we're going to have a sixteen game (16) tournament, where sixteen games will battle for the contendership to face GTA SAN ANDREAS in an ULTIMATE BEST MOST AWESOME AND INCREDIBLE REALLY SWEET EXCELLENT GAME OF ALL TIME MATCH. Or, we could just call it, an UNDISPUTED GREATEST GAME OF ALL TIME match.
What games will be entered? That's to be decided, and will instead be selected based on both past nominations (though the eight games that were elected for the original tournament WILL NOT PARTICIPATE) and notoriety. Your say will have an influence as well, if you choose to reply further to this topic and make some suggestions. Based on what we have, here are a few that will be entered:
Super Smash Bros. Bioshock Crash Bandicoot Ecco The Dolphin Sonic The Hedgehog 3 and Knuckles Super Metroid Earthbound

Minecraft Mario Kart 64 Portal Half-Life 2 Skyrim Chrono Trigger Gears of War IIsome more I think could be in it! No fucking way Gears 2 should even be considered for this. Gears of War 1 and 3? Sure. But definitely not the second one. I enjoyed all of the campaigns throughout the series, but Gears 3's campaign is by far the best imo. And don't even get me started on the online portion of Gears 2. Headshots registered about 30% of the time with a Longshot, the Gnasher was pitiful, and the glitches made me hate that game with a burning passion. Especially when i used Skorge, and a smoke grenade would shoot him out of the map and make me die instantly. It was definitely an improvement from the first Gears, (ie. Removal of one shot downs from an active Longshot, better maps, and you could move around a little better) but Gears 3 has the best multiplayer. You can Re-Up, choose weapon skins, you have a variety of startout weapons, dedicated servers, no in/out of map glitches, tons of characters to use, etc. I'll think up some games to add to this but I had to get that out of the way first, lol.

I'm not. I was only saying something about a game you chose. I was just stating why I don't think it is good enough to be nominated for this, because there are better games in the series. But it's your vote, so whatever man.

I suppose I'll suggest a few.
Star Wars Battlefront 2 THUG LOTR: Return of the King Assassins Creed 2 Uncharted 3 Little Big Planet Fight Night Round 3 MGS4 Spyro the Dragon Team Fortress 2
Some of my favourite games, or in the case of FNR3, probably the closest simulation sports game I've ever played.
