ZeroSignal620 03/24/21 10:12:21 PM #65:	Best Game of 2016 https://www.bracketmaker.com/tmenu.cfm?1&tid=465407 Ran: January 2017 Overall top seed: Uncharted 4 - A Thief's End 1 seeds: Uncharted 4, Overwatch, Dark Souls III, Final Fantasy XV Final Four: Uncharted 4, Pokemon Sun/Moon, Dark Souls III, Final Fantasy XV Ultimate Loser: Pocket Card Jockey Championship: Dark Souls III defeated Pokemon Sun/Moon 35-34 Ditching the monthly polls for good, 2016's tournament would be based on nominating up to 10 games, with the top game being worth the most points. Uncharted 4 was a big deal for PS4 exclusives and easily snatched the top spot. Right behind UC4 was GameFAQs GOTY winner Final Fantasy XV, followed by Dark Souls III and Overwatch. The Wii U didn't get much representation, with Star Fox Zero being the console's only entry as a #14 seed, but Nintendo got plenty of representation from the 3DS with #2 seed Pokemon Sun/Moon leading the pack. A few upsets rocked the opening round, including two #14 seeds advancing; The Witness upset #3 seed Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth, while Hyper Light Drifter stunned #3 seed World of Final Fantasy, followed by a win over #11 seed Super Mario Run, becoming the third #14 seed to make it to round 3. Super Mario Run had a upset over #6 seed Salt and Sanctuary, becoming the third mobile game to win a tournament match; the second mobile game would also be in this year's tournament, as Pokemon Go scored a #5 seed and a victory in round 1. Other #11 seeds to create a few upsets included Amplitude beating #6 seed Pocket Card Jockey, and Hitman defeating #6 seed Forza Horizon 3 and The Witness before nearly defeating #2 seed Zero Time Dilemma. Finally, #12 seed The Last Guardian stunned Dragon Quest VII in the first round. Most of the #1 seeds did fairly well. Uncharted 4 laid Tricky Towers, Street Fighter V, and Jackbox Party Pack 3 to waste before having a respectable 12-9 victory over Stardew Valley in the Elite Eight. Dark Souls III made easy work out of Furi and Shadow Tactics before having some close bouts with Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice and Kirby Planet Robobot to earn a semifinal spot; the highlight of Dark Souls' region was an intense double overtime match between Kirby and Doom that ended with Nintendo's adorable hero winning 35-34. Final Fantasy XV underperformed as a #1 seed. It's highlights included barely doubling #16 seed Stellaris, and then winning 10-8 three times in a row against Oxenfree, XCOM 2, and Zero Time Dilemma. But that's more than what I could say for Overwatch; after wins over Owlboy and MLB The Show 16, Blizzard's online free for all lost in overtime to #4 seed Dishonored 2. Dishonored 2 would lose by a single vote to Pokemon Sun/Moon for the last spot in the semifinals. In the semifinals, Final Fantasy XV had its fourth match in a row with only 10 votes; unfortunately for Noctis and his bros, Dark Souls III had 13, giving DS3 the 2nd straight championship appearance for From Software. The battle between Uncharted 4 and Pokemon Sun/Moon was more intense, going into overtime; at the end of the second day, Pokemon won 39-36 and Sun/Moon became the 3rd game in the series to attend the championship. Dark Souls III and Pokemon had an epic battle for the ages; at the end of the first day, a 17-17 tie forces these two to go into overtime. The 24 hour overtime session was just as extreme, with neither game building a large lead at any time. The final result was a photo finish, one so close that I had to double check the time stamps on the posts. With a 34-34 tie, FFDragon casts a vote for Dark Souls III with *eight seconds remaining* before the 24 hours officially passed. A vote for Pokemon Sun/Moon was cast 11 seconds after the 24 hour mark, but it was too little, too late; Dark Souls III wins the closest championship match in tournament history 35-34 after 48 hours of competition. The Soulsbourne titles slowly built a reputation in these contests as time went by. Note the titles prior to 2016... Demon's Souls - Round 3 loss to Dragon Age in 2009 Dark Souls - Round 4 loss to Skyward Sword in 2011 Dark Souls II - Round 1 loss to Crypt of the Necrodancer in 2014 Bloodborne - Championship loss to Rocket League in 2015 ...and the last of the Soulsbourne games, Dark Souls III, wins 2016 in crazy fashion. The most ironic part? I got to this tournament on March 24, 2021, the 5th year anniversary of Dark Souls III's release.
