Which game did Deus Ex lose to the first time?

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3463


Ah, I see. Well, it was up against FAR stiffer competition there.


Also, was it not the case that everyone hated the 4-way battle format because the results were so unpredictable?

I switched to Uncharted on the last day on the advice of this topic, but I feel better about having had Legend of Dragoon now. I thought both Deus Ex and Fable had good winning chances, while this topic/board thought they were clear-cut, so it's becoming increasingly apparent that the consensus means very little on matches between unknowns.


I actually still have LoD in my bracket, but I'm picking U2 in the Battle Challenge. That way, I've got a chance to score no matter what, which I direly need after RB2 flopped.

I'm not sure why people thought Deus Ex was sure to lose based on that poll. Yes, it got creamed by MGS and FFT, but both of those would beat Rock Band 2 into a pulp. A cursory glance at past GOTY polls showed the two games in roughly the same area- it was essentially a battle of two unknowns.

Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest.

I have a good feeling about TF2, honestly. And even if it loses, it's all good - we've had two awesome day matches back-to-back! There's no way I can complain.

Now see, if people think Legend of Dragoon beating Uncharted 2 is more likely than Deus Ex beating Rock Band 2, I don't know what to think.


I honestly wouldn't be surprised at all if Uncharted 2 took it all. It's not what I have in my bracket, but I can see it happening.

Put the Sandvich in that picture and TF2 99-1s Fable. Book it.

PS: Also, TF beats Fable's biggest lead by 1. Think it's over now?

I probably would have voted for Fable if I had seen the picture before voting. Instead, the picture didn't load for some reason, so I bracket-voted for TF2.

Being a PS3 exclusive isn't a huge problem (MGS4 is plenty strong), but being Uncharted 2 against this site's elite games will be a major problem.

Well, since the US shifted back toward TF2, it looks like Fable's lost this one.

*Sighs* figures, I lose yesterday's match for picking the "sure win" then I lose today's match for picking the upset.

Granted, I have both Fallout and Batman going to round 3, but still, being at 50% after two days is pretty disheartening.
