Pick the next Besties Battle Bracket
🕑 Added 2024-07-02 03:15:51 +0000 UTC
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!

Best game intro
Sacha Greif
Suggestions: - best song and/or best soundtrack. - best game by a solo developer - best fighting game character - best level
Hunter Hollis
Bracket suggestion: best "mini-game". I'm finally playing The Witcher 3, and I'm just monster hunting to fund my Gwent career.
Mat Yunker
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.
Spughetti
Best local co-op to play with a non-gamer partner!
Kel Bennett
I feel like you all talk about phone games a lot! What about a mobile game bracket?
Griffin
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
Thomas Barker
I think you can still change your vote home slice
Daniel Nugent
Oh, well, I would have voted for that. Maybe next time.
Chris
Good question! Launch lineup!
Thomas Barker
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.
BassToad
We all know the best console is the GameCube. Skip that boat, i want to see Luigi and Daxter fight to the death
yipyippee
Wow, this is a close one!
Andrew Stewart
i voted for best launch game but do we really need to have BOTW win another bracket haha
Pepe D Sapiens
Haha I’m just giving them a hard time 😁
Emily
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
Chris
A+!
Benjamin Heasly
The best launch game is KSP, right? 😛
Garfunkel Horseman
Specifically in perspective, so Doom 2 to Doom 3 wouldn’t count, but GTA2 to GTA3 would even though GTA2 had 3D graphics
Lauren Admire
We all know the best videogame food is Legos
Shannon Lee
Oo! Best fishing minigame!
Shannon Lee
Best Slay the Spire enemy!
Shannon Lee
Best mini games!
Squeatus
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.
Eric Hittinger
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.
Jan Vonhoegen
Please do Best Party Game one day…I especially want to know how a Russ party would go down! 😅
Ian Hickey
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
Monty
Where's best Plantebait movie?
Caleb Ackerman
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).
Disco Dash
Kazooie.
August Rulewich
How do I vote for all of the above?
Alex Murphy
These are great. I would love an episode about the best emergent narrative games, featuring the best emergent narratives you've ever personally experienced
Pepe D Sapiens
Where’s best romanceable character?
Rum_Ham
Gotta be the latter!
Walter Blakey
Based upon how they feel meh about there being a new Mario Party, a party game bracket would be hilarious.
Garfunkel Horseman
Are we allowed to suggest future brackets? What about “best transition from 2D to 3D in a long running series”?
solidsnakemg
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
Carrie Dzike
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...
Jordan Milano
It’s gottttta be food I need to hear Justin defend food he knows isn’t real.
Carrie Dzike
100
AaronElWhite
Best sidekick! (And why it's Clank, of course)
Nangli
This. I want to see what they think about Jackbox.
SlimLeaper
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)
Trebotski
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!)
Johnny Van Cura
2 hours discussing Pilotwings please.
Uncle Dr PhilOsophy
Best console best console best console !
Rob Woodward
Fortunately the dreamcast also has chao garden (aka Sonic Adventure) as a launch title.
Patrick
Raaaaaa 🔊
solidsnakemg
Best food. I want to hear Russ give a detailed explanation of why eggs are the perfect gamer fuel.
rylander
Video games food sounds absolutely deranged. Please this one
Addison
If launch games is chosen don’t forget to consider the handheld systems too!
Thomas Barker
Definitely launch games for me!! I always get hyped at the initial offerings and getting to test drive the next gen through them
Patrick
So curios about the Sega lore!
Zachary Landes
Pick “Best Console” you cowards!
