We're 800 votes ahead of yesterday already and neither of these should be huge vote draws.

It being this close scares me, because it's obvious who's going to come out ahead if this deadlock keeps up.

Half-Life 2 would just wreck FFXII harder than VC.

Half-Life 2 would wreck FFXII hard, huh?

I guess you weren't here for that, unless you think 2800 votes is "wrecking."

This could be over soon. TF2 is very quickly eliminating Fable's huge early leads in Europe and Asia.

Compared to Deus Ex and Rock Band 2 during US school hours I think any game in this division could be considered a draw.

I would think Fable because of Fable II's Xbox Live popularity and Fable III's hype.

But I'm no expert so lolol

Greyfeld | Posted 10/21/2010 9:45:44 AM | message detail
To be fair, at this rate, Fable needs to make a lead in these first three hours if it plans to survive the ASV vote (especially those last 5 hours of the poll). As it is, yesterday DX lost about 500 votes in that 9 hour window.

Granted, RB2 had a higher percentage in North America than TF2 currently has, but a votal difference can always screw up the prediction.

Did Hochi get Deus Ex > Rock Band 2 right?

I got this right, I don't see why everyone thinks this was some major upset. It was 8 seed vs 9 seed. And Deus Ex is constantly mentioned on every best game of all time list while Rock Band 2 never is.


Although, I suppose putting my faith in Gamefaqers to "know what they're talking about" was a bit risky.

Because a quality game does not a popular game make. Don't act all high and mighty because you were part of the 30% who got a 1-point match right. Without any definite trend information on Rock Band 2, you were guessing just like the rest of us, you just happened to be right this time around.

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3497&region=EUR

Mario 64 actually seemed pretty consistent with the overall results in Europe, just a smidge lower each time, even with FFVII in the poll.

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3475&region=EUR
http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3492&region=EUR

Europe seems to like Galaxy quite a bit, or it just doesn't like the competition.

We don't know if Fable is going to get the ASV. We've always been under the impression that there is some sort of Xbox ASV, based on how Xbox games and characters perform with it. The only thing is that with the Xbox games we've seen in these contests, they are mostly Xbox FPSes. We haven't seen very many Xbox games in the contests outside of the FPS games. I don't know how an Xbox RPG will do with the ASV.

Xbox games do better with the ASV because they are more popular in America. If TF2 remains in the lead in America, it should be able to stop Fable from building up a lead.
