I like comeback matches better than wire to wire matches. Wire to wire aren't that exciting to watch, more just the same thing all day.

Squall's been hovering around 250 though, not 260.

And Vincent bounces back, while Squall underperforms.

This is still over. Squall can take all the updates he wants. Vincent just takes the update after that.

You can't really use that.. Say if Squall takes a 42 update than Vincent comes back with 19 and repeat it.. Squall wins..

Spoke to soon KH

*I* spoke too soon in saying it's not over? What, does Vincent's massive gain of 19 seal the deal now?

*slaps you back*

Laugh it up... but next year... oh brother... brother! Devil May Cry 4... Dante will be stronger than Squall and Vincent.

Man, Master Chief got robbed yesterday, how could CJay change the results like that? Master Chief won the damn match.

Squall's obviously got the vote of the Dante fanbase here.

eh.. I don't find comeback all that exciting as wire-to-wire.. Ex: MC vs. Donkey Kong .. It was pretty exciting but no way in comparision to CT vs. LttP or MGS/FFT

Eh.. highly doubt it since DoC > DMC4 and that will only make Vincent performs better on Dante than he did this year..

Donkey Kong/Duck Hunt and Master Chief/Frog are my two favorite matches.

Comeback > wire-to-wire, though both rule.

Lewis Black: Namely as valued contributors to our re-election fund.

ct/lttp I thought was pretty boring. Mgs/fft I enjoyed because I was watching it towards the end. Mc/dk might have been more exciting if the entire board didn't loathe master chief. I just like comebacks more though. One of my favorite matches was the second day of Jill/Ryu. That was hot stuff.

D'oh! Uh... he'll be stronger than Squall... brother!

As for me, I prefer comeback matches. That's why Master Chief is my favorite character, from a purely contest perspective. He'll probably get a nomination from me next year, just because this contest needs Master Chief.

Is Master Chief/Frog still the biggest vote swing in contest history?

After going from being doubled to having almost 39% yesterday, Master Chief is the new master of the day vote, if you ask me.

Twilight Princess, Metroid Prime: Hunters, Mario Kart DS, and the New Super Mario Bros. Square may gain next year, but Nintendo seems to have the necessary weapons to keep up.

This match is honestly pretty boring. They've been exchanging updates forever.

And we're at the halfway point.

Don't worry. Once Squall starts making his charge, it'll get exciting.
