Well I think I better close this before someone comes in and ties it up again.

In our closest match to date, the winner of The VG Press Game of the Decade Tournament by a score of 7-6 is:

SUPER MARIO GALAXY!

Well that went great. I was shocked that this worked. So you guys want to do it for older games?

Also I have an extra question, to see how it would compare, give us your personal pick for your game of the last decade. As I said before mine is RE4.

Now I wonder which game gamefaqs poll will go with?

Their audience swings heavy rpg/ heavy pc.

I'm fine with SMG winning, it's not as good as SMG2, but it did all the heavy lifting for the series.

It's going to be FFX or some crap like that.

Mine is also RE4. It's my favorite game of all time.

As for doing this with older games, that'd be okay. I guess another way would be genre by genre. greatest FPS etc...

I enjoy the weird cross genre match ups. I think that is when we learn most about a person. I will forever know which of you chose DQ8 over Zelda or Katamari over MGS3, weirdos. Nyaa

I'm with Vader on the controls. Screw moving and shooting.

24 is better on the vgpress than it is on television.

SMG won?

YATAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

Actually this is false. Your favourite game would be Majora's Mask.

RE4 controls perfectly. Changing it would just make it another shitty 3rd person shooter with dual anal-ogue.

SMG Won???

I'm curious to see the breakdown between votes per region. So I will tally them up.

I will include Canada and USA as North America

RE4

North Amercian votes 4

Austrailian votes 2

SMG

Europe 3

North Amercian votes 2

Austraila 1

Mexico 1

From the results we can see that not one European voted for RE4, whilst the bulk of North American votes went to RE4, twice as much as the North Americans who voted for Galaxy. The Austrailians were divided but there was one voter who hadn't played one of the games.

Mexico also favoured Galaxy.

From this I can say that Super Mario Galaxy HD is on the way on Wii HD, it's the only logical conclusion.

my personal choice is probably Twilight Princess.  Zelda is my favourite template for a game, and Twilight Princess does it to near perfection.

Listen to Wu-Tang and watch Kung-Fu

I probably would have gone wiith Dragon Quest VIII if I could have just picked one game.  I had such a good time playing it that it's the only game of that length (40+ hours) that I immediately started to replay after completing it.  Kingdom Hearts and RE4 would have also been acceptible winners as well in my eyes.
