If Gordon loses to Balthier, that might be his second worst loss ever...even worse than the Duke Nukem one.

Balthier got his ass kicked by the likes of Ada Wong and Amaterasu.

Man...I'm so torn. I want Vincent to look really good today for Zack's sake, but at the same time I want Vincent to look not so great today for Crono's sake. Damn you, Valentine, playing with my emotions. >:-|

PartOfYourWorld | Posted 9/28/2008 1:04:16 AM | message detail
Yeah, this is more like it, but I did peg Vincent at 51% here (and he obviously won't hit that). Even if he finishes a couple percentage points higher than Ganondorf, it still suggests that Falcon + GlaDOS are roughly equivalent to Frog + KOS-MOS. Who in the hell would have expected that?

Falco not doing much worse than Fox should be somewhat expected. He is in Melee and Brawl, and is the resident loner/badass of the Star Fox series. Portal also has quite the following so GlaDOS should have been high fodder at worst.

Lieutenant Kettch | Posted 9/28/2008 2:30:55 AM | message detail
it still suggests that Falcon + GlaDOS are roughly equivalent to Frog + KOS-MOS. Who in the hell would have expected that?

Ganon was up against 3 RPG characters, which likely inflated his percentage a bit.

The one interesting thing about having Wander in this poll, is comparing Vincent's performance to Mario's last year. Putting them head-to-head you get these percentages:

Mario 85.37% of the Mario/Wander votes.
Vincent 84.47% of the Vincent/Wander votes.
Fayt_Esteed | Posted 9/28/2008 2:42:08 AM | message detail
Either way, I'd like to know whose broght idea it was to bring Wander back, anyways....He got killed by a Pac-Man that got SFF'd to hell by Mario.

I doubt Vincent will break 50%, but if Glados completely collapses, that % has to go somewhere.
cyko | Posted 9/28/2008 6:06:05 AM | message detail
y'know, i haven't seen anyone else mention GlaDOS's other form of support - Rock Band. Still Alive is one of the most downloaded songs in Rock Band and GlaDOS is listed as the artist (not Jonathan Coulton). It's not exactly a huge game on this site, but it's still another source of votes.

For whatever comparing Falco/Vincent here to 2k6-stats is worth, Falco's still under Princess Peach on the Nintendo totem poll. This should statistically change over the match, but Falco's probably not going to roam too far away from Peach...

...and I'd pretty easily take Tidus > Peach.

KamikazePotato | Posted 9/28/2008 6:54:30 AM | message detail
Well, let's say you think Tidus is almost as strong as Vivi based on that match.

Vivi has 23.49 in lats year's X-stats.

Assuming a constant Vincent, this year puts Falco at around 25. Assuming nothing changed from now to the end of the match, which it will, but whatever.

Vivi and Tidus were responsible for eliminating each other -- Vivi should be under-rated by the stats.

If Vivi/Tidus is under-rated and Peach is currently expected to do better than Falco, "doing too well" isn't the term of choice here. Falco may be able to beat Tidus, but I'm going to need to see a lot more from him the rest of the match and see him impress next round.

Luis_Sera89 | Posted 9/28/2008 7:19:51 AM | message detail
Seeing Falco do well is so good to watch after all those years of rallying to get him into a contest.

And by rallying I mean voting for him in the rally contest and urging others to do likewise >_>

I have him going incredibly far. I'm hoping the results so far are due to Falco boosting from Brawl...where not too many other characters have....>_>

HaRRicH | Posted 9/28/2008 7:41:29 AM | message detail
Yeah, 2006...with an adjust Tifa, too, before that's brought up. I'm still too cautious about 2k7 stats to regularly use them right now, and there aren't very good comparisons to make for Falco from last year's matches other than directly looking at some of Vincent's/Wander's/Fox's matches (which don't make for great comparisons due to either SFF or the various strengths of the opponents).

If we want to go there, Tifa scored 49.51% on Samus, who's at least in the middle of the Noble Nine.
