Best Game Ever 2004
Donkey Kong vs. Duck Hunt
Easily the biggest comeback ever up to that point, but Duck Hunt can't complete it. Almost pulled 3000 votes back, though, and electrified the board.
The Legend of Zelda vs Adventure
A beating the likes of which we had never seen. Almost a perfect 95/5 split as well. Beautiful.
Xenogears vs. Pokemon GSC
An anticipated match glitches and then ends badly for Pokemon. A Pokemon glitch would pay EVERYONE back several years later.
Starcraft vs. Halo
The biggest match from this contest. Super hyped, super contested, fanbases clashing, and a huge comeback. Defined Best Game Ever. Funny how weak both games really turned out being.
Kingdom Hearts vs. Soul Calibur
A shocked B8 watched as a sure win was turned into a struggle for KH. THIS made KH Factor?
Super Mario World vs. Sonic the Hedgehog 2
The awaited clash between Mario and Sonic ended in embarrassment.
Metal Gear Solid vs. Final Fantasy Tactics
Incredibly close and tense matched. MGS gained its rep as a series that would not choke in the end.
Starcraft vs. The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker
Beating Halo was one thing, but Zelda was something else. Starcraft rode a wave of momentum to do the unthinkable.
Super Smash Bros. Melee vs. Final Fantays X
Sad that people cared little for this one after Starcraft/WW, but it was an amazing match. Still one of the most legendary pictures in contest history (bless you CJayC).
Chrono Trigger vs. The Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past
50/50 all day until CT started pulling away in the final hours. I cheated for CT so I could get free games. COME AND GET ME ADMIN.
Final Fantasy VII vs. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Disappointing, but still the match everyone was waiting for between the only two games with a chance to win.
Super Smash Bros. Melee vs. Starcraft
Starcraft finally goes down, but not before the most obvious attempt at cheating ever. Lol Starcraft fans.
