Hayabusa
had a good % in round 1, so he should do better than Vivi, but then
again even 85% of those who KNOW Chief bombs in these things took him,
so..uhh...gonna guess Ryu has somewhere in the low-20s range. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png |

Chief had, what, 92% taking him versus Spy? Ryu H's prediction percentage is gonna be as ugly as sin. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/1ryijd.jpg http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |
SonicRaptor | Posted 2/22/2010 12:35:28 PM | message detail |
Yeah,
I should have known better than to pick Chief knowing he always chokes
in matches like this. I guess I just expected Ryu H to drop this year
if anything. I didn't start to doubt my pick until after the lockdown. I'm guessing low 20s percentage myself, I believe the casual bracket makers picked Chief in overwhelming numbers. --- ...Just repeat to yourself / It's just a show / I should really just relax... |

Sub0Zero
had under 20% against MC in a R1-match and Ryu was actually the
underdog against Jill back in 2004 when he was a 3-seed against her as
a 14-seed...so I suspect he'll be killed by bracket-support. I think
he'll go under 20% here. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

And yeah, I believe MC was one of seven characters to have 90+% of the brackets back him in R1. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

I'm
convinced there must be a huge amount of users that fill out their
brackets and don't check back in on the contest until the quarterfinals
or something. MC's huge bracket support year in and year out, VV's
constant bracket disrespect, it's really something. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/1ryijd.jpg http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

Subz
lost the ASV outright to MC, and Ryu H didn't even have the first 12
hours of the match to play with and build an even bigger percentage. If
he can keep MC from taking any hours from him, it'll look really good. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/1ryijd.jpg http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

80.08% of people had Master Chief advancing in round 2 last year. To put that into perspective only Link, Mario, Samus, Solid Snake, Cloud and Sephiroth had higher predictions and that Master Chief probably had the most competitive 8-pack between those characters (Kirby, Big Boss, Raiden) --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 69/84 - Today's Winners: Mega Man and Master Chief |

I
don't understand why the hate.People think it is cool to hate something
popular?Why?I mean I should hate then everything that isn't on 360 and
like only the games from there right?I mean I will be cool then!Also I
guess sales and players don't mean much since you know how much Halo
has sold and also how many players play WOW but the characters from
there do really bad.Well whatever,Nintendofaqs rulez!I am kewl right? --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |

From: Safer Sephiroth 777 | #229 Chief has a history of only performing really well in Halo hype years (2004, 2007). That, and the Halo games themselves proved to be pretty weak last year, and that was in a format that should have helped them excel. I'm sure it gets anti-voted, but it seems like everything does these days. It's just not that strong of a franchise around here. --- Yoblazer: http://i29.tinypic.com/dqhyf5.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
vcharon | Posted 2/22/2010 12:56:31 PM | message detail |
You
could argue that WoW fans just don't care about their own game's
storyline (as a player myself, I can say that most people don't give a
crap at all). Ninja Gaiden is, in my opinion, just legitimately better
than Halo. It's not exactly that surprising a lot of people think that,
and that maybe Halo is another series where people care more about the
game itself than the characters. --- :> |
WarThaNemesis2 | Posted 2/22/2010 12:57:37 PM | message detail |
Isn't Ninja Gaiden one of the first story-driven games? There's a cutscene between every level, I think. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png |
MyWorldIsCrono | Posted 2/22/2010 12:58:47 PM | message detail |
I'd
say the more hardcore WoW players care about the storyline, as they are
experiencing the story with the raid content. But thats probably only
1/5th of the fanbase if that. --- http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/13twop_02.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli fanboyism |
vcharon | Posted 2/22/2010 1:00:34 PM | message detail |
From: MyWorldIsCrono | #233 I'd say the raiders are the ones who don't care. They just want loot and that's it, they couldn't care less about the storyline. Go online and try to have any serious discussion about the lore or the plot of the game. Proceed to be trolled by "1337" 15 year olds in great gear talking about anal something, Chuck Norris, Thunderfury or murlocs. --- :> |

I might get on the leaderboard after this match but it doesn't matter since I have Kratos > Charizard >_> And everyone doing well now is going to lose to someone that has Missingno winning the contest anyway! --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

I'm eying the number one spot on the leaderboard! --- Well, at least until Charizard beats Kratos. |

If
I could make ONE change in my bracket, it would be Charizard winning

points taking such an awesome risk. --- `·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´`·.,¸¸,.·´ http://img175.imageshack.us/img175/7315/ocelotpartycd1.gif |

I
should also point out that I've now called Sub-Zero > Master Chief,
Castlevania > Halo, Kirby > Master Chief (sorry Dante), and now
Hayabusa > Master Chief correctly. I say this not to brag (I missed
most everything concerning the Halo games, after all) but to wonder why
on earth do people continue to take Master Chief and Halo? --- Mustache...and Green... |
PartOfYourWorld | Posted 2/22/2010 2:33:23 PM | message detail |
Char
doesn't even have to beat Kratos that convincingly to be considered the
favorite against Sora (imo). He'll step into that match on Gold/Silve
launch day and after having smashed L-Block; he could easily be
stronger than the Charizard we see in a few days. --- Yoblazer: http://i38.tinypic.com/2s024p4.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
