Before I talk about yesterday's match, let's discuss the Tales series and their performances in these tournaments.

2001: Tales of Eternia loses to Phantasy Stay Online in round 1
2004: Symphonia loses to Shadow Hearts: Covenant in round 3
2006: Tales of the Abyss loses to Okami in round 2
2008: Vesperia loses to Professor Layton in round 3; Symphonia 2 loses to Kirby Super Star Ultra in round 1
2012: Graces F loses to Journey in round 2
2013: Xillia loses to BioShock Infinite in round 2
2014: Xillia 2 loses to Smash Bros 3DS in round 2; Tales of Hearts loses to Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire in round 1
2015: Zestiria loses to Legend of Heroes: ToCS in round 1

So it was obvious that the Tales series has underperformed in these, with top seeded titles like Symphonia and Vesperia burning out in the sweet 16. For awhile, it seemed like Berseria yesterday was going to meet the same fate, as Pyre jumped out to a decent lead. In the second half, however, Tales of Berseria came back when it mattered the most and pulls off the victory in the final hours! Tales of Berseria becomes the first in the series to reach the Elite Eight with a 15-12 win over Pyre! It's reward? A showdown with contest favorite Zelda.

Nier: Automata (PS4, PC)

vs.

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard (PS4, Xbox One, PC)


Automata has laid every game in its path to waste with a combined 46-8 total against Dujanah, Nioh, and Uncharted: Lost Legacy. Biohazard had easy wins against Fortnite and Evil Within 2 before going into overtime and beating Doki Doki by a single vote. Square vs. Capcom to determine the first spot in the final four begins now!

Speaking of the Elite 8. These games would be my Elite 8 of 2017

01. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
02. Persona 5
03. Super Mario Odyssey
04. Nioh
05. Xenoblade Chronicles 2
06. NieR: Automata
07. Horizon Zero Dawn
08. Resident Evil 7: biohazard

So 7/8 made it and as a consolation Tales of Berseria is my #9 game of 2017.

This tournament couldn't have gone any better up to this point.

Still amazed this didn't get more nominations than it did. Could have made a decent run otherwise
