These are the results of the 2004 edition of the Best Game of 2004 tournament, ran by Raven in mid 2010. It's notable for having only one double-digit seed win in the first round, which was #10 seeded Sonic Heroes. Metal Gear Solid 3 would defeat Half-Life 2 in the finals by two votes to be crowned the Best Game of 2004, marking the first time a Metal Gear title had done so. 2004's Ultimate Loser: MGS3 > Half-Life 2 > Ninja Gaiden > Pikmin 2 > Halo 2 > Astro Boy: OF > James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing
