Pick the next Besties Battle Bracket

Image from Giraffe Town

Tomorrow we'll share the latest episode of the Besties Battle Bracket, selecting the best "most powerful weapon." It's delightfully chaotic.

But with this episode out the door, we'll need topics for future episodes. You know what that means: poll time!

*For Best Console, we would discuss everything EXCEPT the games. How the console looks, its accessories, its tricks and gimmicks, etc. if you've ever wanted to hear Plante talk at length about the significance of the Dreamcast running an optional Windows OS, have we got the episode for you!

Comments

Best game intro

pthree

Suggestions: - best song and/or best soundtrack. - best game by a solo developer - best fighting game character - best level

Sacha Greif

Bracket suggestion: best "mini-game". I'm finally playing The Witcher 3, and I'm just monster hunting to fund my Gwent career.

Hunter Hollis

Seven friends and I do an annual Gaming Decathlon. We go to a cabin for the weekend and play all weekend, with events like Geoguessr, poker tournament, Smash Bros, etc.

Mat Yunker

Best local co-op to play with a non-gamer partner!

Spughetti

I feel like you all talk about phone games a lot! What about a mobile game bracket?

Kel Bennett

Chris won’t be able to convince anyone to play it, but if “Best Sidekick” wins, I’d like an honorary nomination for The Secretary from 1000xResist

Griffin

I think you can still change your vote home slice

Thomas Barker

Oh, well, I would have voted for that. Maybe next time.

Daniel Nugent

Good question! Launch lineup!

Chris

Can I get clarification? Is it best launch GAME or GAMES (so singular game or what system had the best launch lineup)? Very much changes my answer since I’d be much more interested in launch lineups than singular games.

Thomas Barker

We all know the best console is the GameCube. Skip that boat, i want to see Luigi and Daxter fight to the death

BassToad

Wow, this is a close one!

yipyippee

i voted for best launch game but do we really need to have BOTW win another bracket haha

Andrew Stewart

Haha I’m just giving them a hard time 😁

Pepe D Sapiens

They said they're probably not doing that one due a lack of.....diversity (a bunch of straight white dudes) lol

Emily

Console bracket but also consider: start up screens and animations and/or home screen UI

Emily

A+!

Chris

The best launch game is KSP, right? 😛

Benjamin Heasly

Specifically in perspective, so Doom 2 to Doom 3 wouldn’t count, but GTA2 to GTA3 would even though GTA2 had 3D graphics

Garfunkel Horseman

We all know the best videogame food is Legos

Lauren Admire

Oo! Best fishing minigame!

Shannon Lee

Best Slay the Spire enemy!

Shannon Lee

Best mini games!

Shannon Lee

If best console is debated I hope to hear about Turbo Grafx. Nobody ever seem to remember it and it has some cool stuff going for it.

Squeatus

Have we done "best comedy game" or "funniest game" yet? I recall a discussion about comedy in the video game medium (sometime in the last year or two?), but would love to hear the long form version of this.

Eric Hittinger

Please do Best Party Game one day…I especially want to know how a Russ party would go down! 😅

Jan Vonhoegen

Btw if I don't see Duck Game on Best Party Games I'll riot

Ian Hickey

WOW this is a close race so far

Ian Hickey

Where's best Plantebait movie?

Monty

Oo if you do best party game the tie breaker should be which one are you more afraid of playing with your kids (based on your Mario party convo).

Caleb Ackerman

Kazooie.

Disco Dash

How do I vote for all of the above?

August Rulewich

These are great. I would love an episode about the best emergent narrative games, featuring the best emergent narratives you've ever personally experienced

Alex Murphy

Where’s best romanceable character?

Pepe D Sapiens

Gotta be the latter!

Rum_Ham

Based upon how they feel meh about there being a new Mario Party, a party game bracket would be hilarious.

Walter Blakey

Are we allowed to suggest future brackets? What about “best transition from 2D to 3D in a long running series”?

Garfunkel Horseman

That's how I read it lol. Best foods to eat while you game. Although Best food in a game would also be pretty fun

solidsnakemg

fingers crossed it's the latter

Carrie Dzike

wait if this is not about food or cooking in video games and instead what foods you eat whilst playing a video game I take my vote back...

Carrie Dzike

It’s gottttta be food I need to hear Justin defend food he knows isn’t real.

Jordan Milano

100

Carrie Dzike

Best sidekick! (And why it's Clank, of course)

AaronElWhite

This. I want to see what they think about Jackbox.

Nangli

Is video game food a matchup of foods you eat while gaming or food IN games, like wall meat and pizza boxes (Castlevania v. TMNT)

SlimLeaper

Party games are interesting because I feel like we party less in person nowadays - are online party games part of the same conversation? (I think so!)

Trebotski

2 hours discussing Pilotwings please.

Johnny Van Cura

Best console best console best console !

Uncle Dr PhilOsophy

Fortunately the dreamcast also has chao garden (aka Sonic Adventure) as a launch title.

Rob Woodward

Raaaaaa 🔊

Patrick

Best food. I want to hear Russ give a detailed explanation of why eggs are the perfect gamer fuel.

solidsnakemg

Video games food sounds absolutely deranged. Please this one

rylander

If launch games is chosen don’t forget to consider the handheld systems too!

Addison

Definitely launch games for me!! I always get hyped at the initial offerings and getting to test drive the next gen through them

Thomas Barker

So curios about the Sega lore!

Patrick

Pick “Best Console” you cowards!
