Votals are kind of sucking here.

So Hayabusa should increase overnight, and being X-Box, he should fare better than most characters against the kiddie rush come morning.

Yeah. Regardless of KH's history with the board vote, being down 124 votes in 5 minutes probably isn't what you want. Hayabusa's looking pretty good.

damn you microsoft

OH WOW GO RYU KICK THEIR ASS FLIP OUT AND KILL **** ETC ETC ETC FANBOYISM TOWARDS MATCH RYU KICKS ASS NINJA GAIDEN OWNS YOUR SOUL ETC ETC ETC

Parodies fail when they should not be done in jest!

I voted Riku, BUT RYU HAYABUSA IS FROM THE BEST ACTION GAME OF ALL TIME DO NOT DOUBT HIS POWER HE WOULD SOLO KRATOS AND DANTE IN HIS SLEEP

Samus 2K5 is horribly underrated, and is indirectly stronger than Mario. KHF sucks and never existed either, much like my package.

Roxas was starting to take off there in that last minute. He may do well here if that wasn't just a coincidence

Maybe my Ryu into the third round mistake could be a blessing! Even without Roxas he'd be beating Riku at this point. Hopefully this keeps up.

Wow this SFF is really something. I wonder how bad KOS-MOS would have looked if either Diablo or Arthas hadn't been in the match. Vyse or Laharl weak, perhaps? Hopefully not, but I don't know.

It isn't that scary when you take into account how few Xbox reps there are compared to all the others... and there's also Sam Fisher to think about, who is as Xbox as you can get without being official and he didn't move on (though he came about as close as you can get).

QUICK WITHOUT THINKING: Take out Roxas and replace him with each of the following, then determine the results!

- L-Block
- Midna
- Meta-Knight
- Ridley

Man, I just realized, Snake totally destroyed Sora in 2k5. What if he does that again to Riku?

Hopefully that match was a result of Snake getting his best match pic ever.

wow. this might be the biggest argument for an "xbox boost" yet.

..Cloud took 70% of Sephiroth's votes, right? if so, and this doesn't change too dramatically.. we could be seeing Ryu Hayabusa in round 3. pretty interesting.

Snake/Ryu/Kratos/Kirby? I like Kirby's chances even more now.

Pre-contest I'd have taken Riku in a 55-45 affair, but it seems his result last year was due to Kingdom Hearts recency. Now I'd say it goes almost even.

Karma Hunter | Posted 9/29/2007 9:12:34 PM | message detail
Whoa. Feel the power of SFF, Riku.

And while he wouldn't win the match outright I don't think, it's very safe to say Hayabusa would be winning right now even without Roxas' interference (though it wouldn't be nearly as much). This is a dominating performance.

Oh, I'm really, really not sure about that...

Check the numbers. Do you really think that if Roxas weren't in the poll that EVERY single vote he got would have gone to Riku? I certainly don't.

Huh. It's looking like Ryu could've taken this match even if Roxas wasn't here. I had a feeling he might do better than expected in this format. Very impressive, ninja.

creativename | Posted 9/29/2007 9:15:53 PM | message detail
I think this match would be close if it wasn't for LFF.

How many people who voted Roxas do you think would vote for Hayabusa over Riku? Seriously, ROXAS.

I think Hayabusa has to be favored over Riku next round, but I wouldn't be surprised to see a flip-flop. Especially with Riku probably having the most independant fanbase there.

Also I'm ready to dub LFF as the official "Factor of the Contest" so far. It's just been dominant.
