Forums - Gaming Discussion - VGChartz March Madness '14 -- Nominate Your Top Games

Welcome to year two of VGChartz March Madness!

It's March, and that means March Madness in the United States. For those unfamiliar with March Madness, it refers to the NCAA Men's basketball championship, a single-elimination tournament that brings together Division 1 basketball teams from all over the country.

Since this is VGChartz, I'm replacing the basketball teams with video games.

Here's the plan:

There are three threads: nomination, tournament, and prediction. In this nomination thread, members can post up to twenty games they would like to see appear in the tournament. The 32 games that receive the most votes will make the final roster. In the tournament thread, we will vote on a daily basis for each round of the tournament. And in the prediction thread, members can submit their prognostications for the tournament. The member with the most accurate bracket will win, from me, a Steam game of his or her choice, not to exceed $20.

Please post your nominations in this thread. You may post up to twenty (20) games.

This tournament is dedicated to amp316.

 

Edit:

 

tl;dr version: nominate your top 20 games here. The 32 top games enter the tournament. The community votes. You predict the winners. If your bracket wins, you get a $20 game on Steam!
Nominations are closed.
