Probably. I have no faith in casual shooters right now.

I'm also worried about CoD4. Casual shooters have ALL sucked in this contest, for some reason.

Maybe they are just too casual? I can buy that reason for the CoDs, Gears, and possibly Half-Life and GTA. Not Halo though.

Halo 3 60-40'd ME like a year and a half ago, already a few months after its release. That's a big turn-around for ME, FPSs disappointing or not.

Only people making uneducated guesses. There was no reason to expect a game that finished 26th last game contest to somehow get a massive boost in 5 years, when its aged horribly.

It finished 7th on The List. You could say The List isn't credible but neither is the 2k4 X-Stats.

And Left 4 Dead makes a problem for Halo 3. Look at the SA/GOW/TOS/Oblivion match we just had. Both RPGs advanced, both action games lost. Yeah Fallout 3 and ME are a lot more similar than TOS and Oblivion, but Halo 3 and L4D are also a lot more similar than GOW and SA.

I don't think either is very credible, but at least final stats is more credible about talking about games strength in a match format then the list.

Albion, i thought KH2's vote strength was in the daytime or ASV not overnight.

Are you saying that RE4 is in real trouble now since it hasnt gotten a 1k vote lead already?

No, I'm being sarcastic since somehow KH is putting up mid 30% updates in the middle of the night after getting 26-29% for the previous hour, and has cut RE4 three times in a row

Okay Gaddswell, since you're the only one not ignoring me, what do you think the chances are that HL2 finishes in last tomorrow?

And what do you think of L4D causing as much or more of a problem for Halo 3 as Fallout 3 causes ME?

Gaddswell was the only one to respond to any posts i made so far tonight until you posted that.

I made 2 posts earlier that no one responded to:

I'm seriously considering PW over HL2 for third place now. Am i nuts?

And Left 4 Dead makes a problem for Halo 3. Look at the SA/GOW/TOS/Oblivion match we just had. Both RPGs advanced, both action games lost. Yeah Fallout 3 and ME are a lot more similar than TOS and Oblivion, but Halo 3 and L4D are also a lot more similar than GOW and SA.


So since you're not ignoring me, your thoughts on these?

Hmm... I think the chances for HL2 finishing in last is slim. I don't want PW to finish last as much as the next guy, but I think it's gonna end up like that Phoenix / Gordon match a while back that broke GFNW. PW does better than expected, but Gordon pulls through.

As for the other match, I think Mass Effect affects Fallout 3 more. And L4D should have a fair amount of support from outside the 360 that won't come directly from Halo's expense.

Nah you haven't offended me. It's just i've attempted to discuss things in this topic several times and frequently gotten no reply, so i was beginning to wonder if most of the users in this topic have me on ignore for some reason.

At the pace that RE4 is going at, it should be able to hit that 1500 vote lead before KH2 even attempts its massive ASV come back.

So basically it has a chance to stay in first, but KH2 is likely gonna make him work for it.

Today's Sunday, there won't be an ASV. KH2's day vote will be diluted but more spread out over the day. Expect it to start it's comeback attempt around 10.

at this point KHII>KH seems reasonable enough,I can't see RE4 being a an outside top 15 game tbh,the way these two are so far ahead of gears jus mean they are strong.

Replace San andreas or GTA III with gears and that game would probably have in the 20% range in those two matches,now unless Oblivion and Diablo2 are weak,i'd say RE4 and KHII are pretty damn strong.
