The only consolation I take from this match is Ryu looks pretty good again, if you really want to believe all this stuff.

You know...unless Samus takes a beating similar to this tomorrow (and I don't expect it to be quite this bad), then Tifa freakin' Lockhart will place third in the main bracket's X-Stats.

*shudder* I feel dirty...oh so dirty.

At this point I could just as easily see Samus finishing last in the NN or having a close match with Snake.

It simply won't happen again in the future.

Squall doesn't look too bad now!

Axel gets 46.88% on Alucard. Solid Snake gets 62.88% on Bowser. Yoshi gets 55.98% on Bowser and 58.18% on Luigi. Vincent gets 50.82% on Squall.

Solid Snake doubles the one who outperformed him on Mega Man two years ago. Honestly, if Snake loses to Samus now, I'll be dumbfounded.

FastFalcon05 | Posted 11/12/2006 12:29:41 PM | message detail
I'm *really* not doing this with you, FF. I'm not referring to any 'curtness' on our parts, I'm talking about the fact that for three ****ing rounds now you've argued with me to downplay Snake, whether it be against Mega Man or Squall or frigging Yoshi (yes, I'm aware that's bias). And I've respected and taken every one of your arguments into account -- so yes, I think I'm sitting damn pretty on my high horse when I get things like, "At least be open to possibilites, despite your love for Snake."

Bah, I guess you're right. I've just had a hard time seeing Snake do this well round and round again; it's just shocking. In my defense, I never thought the points I tried to make to normalize Snake were too extreme, (or that I was giving you a hard time) but the match results have clearly shown things otherwise. It doesn't help when I still hate the existence of Picture Factor, especially when it goes against my favorite character. However, it's still going to be interesting to see Snake go up against the Nintendo fanbase tomorrow; perhaps it will be telling. Didn't mean to be bothersome, I usually try not to be.

Just below Master Chief. I can't see him losing to Hayabusa, and I think he'd have a pretty good match with MC.

And Aeris ends up really close to her 2003 self through these stats. Not bad.
