Man
even SBAllen beats me...I will not win Karma with my Karma entry!Damn
you Board 8!Nah just joking.Still I had originally picked SF IV to tell
the truth but since Sonic was the only Sonic game I thought that fans
would vote for it.It was pretty close though so that is okay. --- 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~ |

Maybe
we're seeing a gradual userbase shift where now things like Fallout,
Halo, Madden and CoD will run rampant. GamespotFAQs indeed. --- Smurf , The cream of Germany fanboyism. |

Nah
don't think so.I mean the match was what like 800 votes difference.This
is still Gamefaqs.Now in 10 years maybe games more new than FF VII and
OOT can win contests. --- 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~ |

Well,
my battle entry is ****ed unless I go on a crazy run, so I suppose I'll
have to do just that...no banking from some time from here on out! On the plus side, Halo 3 beating SMS solidly raises my hopes of getting that 4-pack right, which somewhat offsets the pain of minor hits from the Deus Ex and SA2 victories. |

Same here. No banking until Warcraft 3/Morrowind. But I actually feel pretty good about all matches from here until that one. I have at least a 60% confidence rating in all matches of Divison 2, though that really doesn't mean a whole lot. --- A pro isn't someone who sacrifices himself for his job.

This
need to have points on your board to feel secure will bite people in
the ass. You'll have to gamble, and gamble big, to win. I'm stepping up my game here and not going to bank until WWF No Mercy vs Fire Emblem PoR. Not too worried about Demon's Souls/MM9, though Warcraft 3/Morrowind scares me ****less. But 12000 points will serve me a lot better than 6600 points, so I feel it's worth the risk. --- Wylvane Shadow_Ryoko is a horrible user. |

Oh god, can Halo: CE beat Halo 3? I'm now more worried about that match than when I thought SMS was gonna win. --- Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? Guru winnah Explicit Content, that's quis. |

So,
Halo better beat NG now. For having this much success this first round
of this division so far (only got RB2 wrong at this point), the most
demoralizing thing that could happen here would be seeing my division's
runner-up lose to NG in R1 despite picking Hayabusa > MC last
contest. That'll hurt me deep. --- "Support Epona because we've run out of good ideas." --Leonhart http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/3492/eponaharr.jpg |

Match VIII: (2) Halo: Combat Evolved vs. (15) Ninja Gaiden Information Name: Halo: Combat Evolved Year: 2001 Previous Performance: SpC2k9 – 4th in Round 2 Name: Ninja Gaiden Year: 2004 Previous Performance: N/A Analysis You know SBAllen set this match up on purpose after Hayabusa was able to upset Master Chief in the last contest. Very few people have gone with the upset considering action game characters usually tend to be much stronger than their game counterpart, but Halo requires a decent performance in order to have a chance at reaching the division finals. In every poll ever done Ninja Gaiden has always looked terrible and that isn’t a hyperbole, it’s almost surprising that Hayabusa has any strength really. Taking a step back and trying to make some sense over multigame polls it does seem Ninja Gaiden would be around the high fodder to regular fodder area. That’s not going to threaten Halo, but at the same time it probably won’t get crushed badly either. There is the possibility that Halo could SFF Ninja Gaiden due to Halo being the Xbox game, but I’m a bit more sceptic about it ever since Knights of the Old Republic. Breaking 60% would be an okay start for Halo, especially with the likelihood of anti-votes bringing its percent down, but it should be decently above that mark. This ends the Halo 24 hour fun pack. charmander6000’s Bracket: Halo: Combat Evolved > Ninja Gaiden charmander6000’s Prediction: Halo wins, 63.83% - 36.17% --- BOP Results: http://charmander6000.webs.com/GotD%20BOP.xls GotD Bracket: 4/6 Today's Matches: Halo 3 & Halo |

So
far, this match has the highest vote totals of any night match and it
still doesn't break the record low of 46209 set in the last contest. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Dr_Football, Guru Champ! |

Welp,
at least now we'll get to see a pretty interesting inter-series SFF
match. Easy to argue that a Halo:CE win will be a point in Melee's
favor. --- Yoblazer: http://i44.tinypic.com/5nw45i.jpg Watch and you'll see... some day I'll be... part of your world! |
