Editor's note: I think we missed Chris's initial announcement for this episode of the community-organized Bitmob Writing Challenge -- but the good news is, it's not over! -Demian

The This or That Writing Challenge ends on Friday, April 30. The plan: Pick two well-received games of the same genre and describe why you prefer one over the other. The details:

1. Write a 500-800 word article comparing two games of the same genre. Back up your choice with reasons, making sure that anyone can understand where you’re coming from. 

2. Approach the topic from any angle you want. It can be a basic article, a breakdown by subject, a first-person account, or even a screenplay. Go nuts. 

3. Post your article as "This or That – (Game 1) Vs. (Game 2)." Include “This or That” in the title and tags so that I can find it in a search.

If you need some inspiration for the challenge, please check out this submissions list for ideas as well as my example using BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger and Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom. Brendon Morz's submission on breasts in  God of War 3 and Dante's Inferno transcended the challenge and was promoted to Bitmob's front page.

I'm not going to hold it against anyone for taking liberties like I did with the First-Person Writer challenge, but I do recommend sticking with a comparison between two games. It brings a sharper focus to the article and forces you to dig deeper into the games to make your arguments.       

I look forward to reading the results!

This challenge is now over. Thanks to everyone who participated.
