CoD4 > Diablo
Galaxy > Wind Waker
GTA4 > Halo

This seems like a no brainer to me. You could argue Galaxy/Wind Waker though.

Man, TP's prediction percentage was awful. And it will look even worse after round 3.

Remember the 8-pack above it? GTA, WoW, Halo 2, and God of War? ...Yeah.

Yeah, all 4 of those games have every reason to be bracket favourites.

Galaxy > Wind Waker

No way is this true. Wind Waker beats COD4 if you replace it with Galaxy.

All three of them beat GTAIV

Not sure Halo does, to be honest.

Galaxy tried to stall CoD4 there and even increased its lead over GTA4.

Brawl destroyed our expectations in both of it's matches and is making the once impressive CoD4 look like crap here.

Brawl did as expected last round, bascially whatever SFIV lost went to the other games. Also there's nothing impressive about CoD4, that was all Galaxy bombing.

MGS4 is a beast confirmed

I'd say GTA and Halo are equal. they've looked equal all contest. COD4 vs. Diablo 2... probably advantage Diablo 2. Galaxy/Brawl and Melee/WW have great parallels - the two best-selling GC games vs. the two best-selling Wii games. the overlap should be similar there.

I'll say Melee had the slightly harder pack, but Brawl's delivering a slightly better beatdown. that said, I think Brawl will tumble harder than Melee. either way, Brawl = Melee looks fairly good.

BRAWLFEAR: the return

I remember when we were calling for BRAWLFEAR last contest to boost the strength of Nintendo characters. Then Nintendo was bombing big time with the exception of just a few characters (Link, Mario, Kirby, and some others I think).

I'm all for Brawl being stronger than Melee, but where are people standing with these two games? Unless things have changed, weren't people calling Melee a top 5/6 game?

Meh, this match went as expected. Really boring, and really sad. Galaxy deserved to do better than this.

Anyway, what are everyone's thoughts for this division's final next round? I'm thinking Brawl>MSG4, but Fallout or CoD could surprise us (because Fallout 3 will advance...right? Right?).
transience | Posted 5/22/2009 9:19:50 PM | message detail
in 2006, yeah. in 2009, I think Melee's part of that huge pack that could be as high as 3 or as low as 15 depending on the matchup.

I'm okay with Brawl being around the top 10, but that means Fallout 3 would wreck so many games.. eh.

How about we wait until after the night vote? Melee started off pretty good as well and these games have a stronger night vote than D2/Halo/WW.

I said Melee was out of the top 10. Probably 11 or 12. Brawl replaced Melee at the top of the Smash totem poll like COMMON SENSE dictates.

I hate to bring this analogy out, but saying Melee > Brawl is like saying Madden '08 > Madden '09

I was the conductor of the Fallout 3 hype train. Fallout 3 is almost beast-level. It just had a bad draw.

We'll need to see if FFX is actually better than FF8, and who advances in the 96-98 division before making a good ranking. With that said, I think one of the newer games that is not in that list could sneak in.

Diablo is a better night vote game then any in this match, and melee, mario, and cod4 are all day games

I don't see your point

So we're just guestimating trends now when we have no evidence to prove its anything other then a night game?
