Last week we had quite the epic “odd debate” matchup, and I can only hope this week’s colossal competition will be just as exciting when I tally the votes. The score was dead even at a hundred votes into the comments, and a winner only squeezed through at the very end. Put this debate down in the books as one of the better discussions we’ve ever had. Here are the results:
- GoldenEye 007 (66 votes) — Winner!
- Super Smash Bros. 64 (57 votes)
If you thought there couldn’t be a more hair-pulling debate than last week, then this week’s odd debate might just be your breaking point. Both of these games were, and arguably still are, the perfect examples of their respective genres. Both have gameplay that stands the test of time, and easily puts to shame most similar games to this day.
In my opinion, the only thing more amazing than either of these games is that each title came from the same great game designing mind. I’m truly equally biased towards each of these games, as well as equally torn on this debate. This is by far the hardest game debate for me to ever cast a vote in.
Which game do you think is better, and why? Give it some serious thought, get some N64-owning friends to share their opinions as well, and check back next week for the winner, which will face GoldenEye 007 in the Nintendo 64 odd debate finals.
Bonus Question: Which series do you think is better overall? Mario or Zelda? And why?
