We swear these games use real words in their titles, even if it totally doesn't look like it. The second prelim is upon us, with only one moving forward into Round 1 proper. Let the dogfight commence!

Oh yeah, brother! It's King of Games time yet again, and this go-'round we're throwin' down to crown the best game of 1996! Just like '92, there are so many solid titles to choose from that a preliminary round was necessary to lock in our sweet 16 contenders. We're kicking things off with Command & Conquer: Red Alert squaring up against X-Men vs. Street Fighter!
