I accidentally deleted all the red in the characters and now it looks really cool but it looks so artsy but it's so cool.

I dunno what to do! :(

Hell yeah, Oblivion. Kick some ass. Break 20% in the day and stuff.

I'm fine with MGS3 advancing, if only because it hurts MGS4, and if TP and Brawl manage to both advance, TP might hold down OoT enough for FFX and Brawl to advance, and FFX will hurt FF7 enough that Brawl will win by being LFF'd less!

There's no way this could go wrong!

Oblivion has definently been one of the stars of the contest in my eyes. Most people didn't even expect it to get out of round 1 and yet here it is in round 3, probably getting over 20% against such major franchises as Zelda, Metal Gear Solid, and Resident Evil. Gotta give it some props

Agreed. On the other hand, I'd say SF2 is the turd of the contest. Again, getting blown the hell out by Sonic 1, losing by nearly 10,000 votes would've been acceptable if Sonic 2 and 3 didn't ass it up. And there's no way in hell you can tell me that Castlevania III or Civilization caused any funny business since they barely got 20% of the vote between them. As if that wasn't enough, it lost to Sonic the next round despite Mario 3 being in the poll (and we've seen Sonic fold to Nintendo before in this format: namely, Yoshi/Knux, Shadow/Zidane, and most notably, Sonic/Kirby, though that match looks to be all sorts of whacked out).

guys i think you need to rethink how you look at contests with games and not characters

games are not going to only have overlap by genre or company or whatever

a lot of people like and play a lot of good games, especially on a website like this, where people come to play games.

good games will have overlap because they are good, and people play them and like them. and this is especially more notable with the contest being in 1v1v1v1 format.

waaaaay too focused on figuring out which fanbase does what imo

MGS3 is gaining too slowly to be able to get any kind of good lead here. It probably won't even be above 500 by 8:00 AM, which is around when the day vote starts to kick in on a weekend match. RE4 should have the better day vote than MGS3 and has over 12 hours to pull a comeback.

On MGS3/4: MGS4's gotta be favored, but MGS3 doesn't roll over to it or probably even the original. It has a strong position in the fanbase for a #3 game, and I'm not convinced on how well MGS4 holds up to other MGS's if it was getting a lot of series-votes against SSBB in the GotY-poll.

That said, as already mentioned, the MGS-fanbase is going to be too small to afford that in comparison to a LoZ:TP/SSBB-combo. It won't be like old-school Square (at least, I hope), but it'll take them out of contention. LoZ:TP and SSBB were each two of the most anticipated games ever here and are on the most owned system here, so they can take advantage of loose votes if the MGS-fanbase is divided and small in comparison to Nintendo.

Since my last post in here, MGS3 has been climbing up a lot faster in the past hour. It might even break a 500 vote lead before 8:00 AM, though I think RE4 can still pull off the comeback.

My thoughts exactly. I always thought something was up with that GotY poll...

The fact that MGS4 being on the PS3 should give MGS3 the advantage over it.

MGS4 has about a 600 vote lead now, and we're almost at the morning vote now (no, we're not there yet). I think RE4 is going to win by a couple thousand.

Wait and see if you don't believe me. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty confident it'll be at least 1000, if not the "couple" part.

That said, I'm feeling good about MGS3 here. I predicted 500-600 lead to be safe, and it seems we're gonna get that. Both games have bad day votes, afterall

Actually, yeah, let's tone that down a bit. 2000 probably isn't happening. Still feel good about RE4 to win though.

Compared to MGS3 it will be. And TP is going to dominate it until about 1 PM or so, but it'll probably be about even with RE4 for the rest of the day vote.

The late morning tends to have more ASV trends on weekends, but weaker while the afternoon becomes like the DSV which becomes the SNV.
