@RogerRoger Sorry for the delay. I just had... well, it’s a long story. 😅
Anyways, At the risk of inducing Okami overload, I’m going to have to go with Okami HD. Something about the aesthetic pleases my eye. Thanks again for your help

Alright, friends. Results are on their way.

@Th3solution No apology required, sir! Hope you're okay, and thanks for sorting that out (also yay, I won the bet with myself over how you'd break the tie)!

Okay, there were so many diverse results this time around, this is the longest list of smaller, individual votes that I've ever had to tally! Great round to show how unique all our opinions can be, even if the winners stormed away with emphatic final scores.

Very nice, good work! I'm a little surprised Wasteland 2 didn't do better, what with the first game's cover being so popular. But looks like a great mix there.

It’s incredible just how many brilliant covers Resi 4 has. We’ve got a brilliant selection so far!

Grand results!
I’m glad to see some of my favorites advanced.

I will soon put together the updated final 50, along with the plans for the next stage of the poll.

“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”

We now have our modern console generation Top 50 Box Art!
You’ll be able to see them in the 2 albums below. Keep reading.

The next stage of voting is simple.
We have completed 6 sub-groups of this Round
The winner from each of those sub-groups get immunity and automatic advancement to the Group Finals, which will be a top 20.

The Early Round Winners are:

Located HERE

  • Resident Evil 4 (Wii Edition)
  • The Outer Worlds
  • Bioshock Infinite (Reverse Cover)
  • Ghost of Tsushima
  • Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Special Edition
  • Final Fantasy XII The Zodiac Age Steelbook

These 6 game covers automatically advance and will be in the final top 20.

— — — — — — — — —

That leaves 14 slots to fill from the remaining 44 candidates.

Those 44 are located OVER HERE

We will now be voting to fill those 14 slots. In order to further make it fair, the titles that came in second place in the early rounds will get a leg-up and be awarded an automatic 4 points each. Those are —

Second place games from the early voting:

  • Sid Meier’s Civilization VI
  • Shadow of the Tomb Raider
  • Sleeping Dogs
  • NieR Automata Game of the Yorha Edition
  • Nex Machina
  • Lost in Shadow
  • MGS V The Phantom Pain Steelbook
  • Nioh 2 Steelbook

(There are 8 because of a three way tie in one of the sub-groups.)
Obviously getting an extra 4 points still does not guarantee they will advance but they get rewarded for coming close to winning their subgroup. Yet they still need votes to end up in the top 14, so if any of these are your favorites, you’ll still need to vote for them.

                  • -

Now, here is all you need to know in a nutshell—

The procedure for voting:

  • Browse the album of game cover art included in these semifinals.
    Again, the link for those are here:

https://ibb.co/album/fqXpYv

  • Pick your favorite 3
  • Distribute 6 points between those 3 games (minimum of 1 point, maximum of 4 points)

You have 3 days. Ready, Set, Go!

We've reached a point where it's mostly all great artwork but ultimately it looks like I'm picking stuff I submitted. Some great covers from the likes of Until Dawn and Oxenfree missing out and some cool images I wasn't even aware of like Monster Hunter World 3 and No More Heroes 2. Ultimately I'm voting like this though -

2 Points - Shadow of the Tomb Raider
2 Points - Horizon Zero Dawn steelbook
2 Points - X-Com 2

I probably might have weighted more points to Shadow but seeing as it has a few votes already I decided to spread them out more.

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Yeah, it is quite diverse. And I see a bunch that I really like.
By the way, I know you recently went back to work. Do you think you’ll have time to do the vote tally this weekend? We’re set to close on Saturday
Edit: sorry, actually it would end up to be Sunday morning in the UK.

This week was actually supposed to be the first week of half term here but well... Unusual times as it is meant we had enough interest to be open regardless.

It's a four day weekend here now though at the very least so I can do the tally... Shouldn't be a problem @Th3solution

@Th3solution Hi, do you mind taking a screenshot of the thumbnails for me? I still can't view the images on the ibb page. :/

I can see some of the names but others are just alphabets and numbers.
