Notes:

• There were four ties (Doom and COD, Elder Scrolls and RDR, Mafia and Prince of Persia, & Legend of Zelda and Portal. I'll confess I'm not sure how it determined the winners, but we'll run with it.
  
• We had five clean sweeps! Final Fantasy, Castlevania, Mortal Kombat, Half Life, and the home team: Metal Gear Solid.
  
• Some big names were lost in Round 1: Call of Duty, Fallout, Uncharted, TLOU, Kingdom Hearts, RDR, Elden Ring, Dark Souls to name a few.
  
• I'll be honest, Tony Hawk beating out Smash Bros was a bit of a surprise. Dark horse of the tournament?
  
• Round 2 voting ends on 3/14 at 23:59! Then we're on to the Sweet 16. Have fun!
