65/35 is meh. Not enough to make F-Zero GX seem impressive, yet not enough to make Dragon Age: Origins seem any different from what we expected it to be.

Next.


Let's give it some time. This game might have a Fallout-esque early vote and finish well above 65%.

26.23% for RSE

Wow...


This was my initial reaction. Glad I was one of the 26% though.

So is there anyone who still disagrees in the GTA strength-tier being Vice City > San Andreas > III > IV? Or at the very least that GTA IV is the weakest? Losing to R/S/E while having brackets behind you is pretty embarrassing, and I really don't see any of the other 3 GTA games doing that.

Yeah, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to see it at 68% next update. WRPG vs. Nintendo in the board vote is so lopsided.

Dragon Age is both the more critically acclaimed game and better selling game. No site would have it losing to F-Zero.

So is there anyone who still disagrees in the GTA strength-tier being Vice City > San Andreas > III > IV?

I think there's still room for debate between Vice City and San Andreas. Just because Vice City won its match (where it took advantage of SFF) and San Andreas lost doesn't mean that it is automatically stronger.

This issue will be resolved this year anyway, but yeah, it's pretty clear that GTA4 is the weakest link and that GTA3 is in third.

Ouch. Awful prediction percentages across the boards. The perfects do manage to stay above 30% but the -1s get hammered and the -2s only do a bit better. Starting from the -3s downward, the prediction percentage stays pretty constant. It took a while but the gurus finally get a big win against the casuals. Gurus had 70.98% support for RSE versus 26.23% overall.

25 people fell off the Top 50 today. PierreDevereaux, Hittman57, Reaper_Minion, andyocon, Kyraeu, mcg20k, Imgema, FighterOfFire, 92_56_43, ryan0991, JellyJedi, AlleRacing, weremidget, AceCannon, adgh16ni, clayallen17, forcedreg13, emasters2010, ekimarcher9, noevil00, shock_n_awesome, Frost_Ice, FelixLegend, kingmarkthe2nd and SeraphSuperNova did not have Pokemon RSE taking down GTA4 in the previous match.

Another 12 got the match wrong but survived. Former first place not_an_imp, former second place BRye926, former third place Alternative_1, Zerochris5002, KD100396, Undying_Will, Burns1111, Mister_Feeny, cammio, MagThor, ZayJay and jeffb87 also did not have Pokemon RSE taking down GTA4 in the previous match.

I'm now questioning Borderlands simply because I'm god-awful at predicting the close matches this contest. Thankfully, we have this:

Two generic anime dudes (one of which looks like a girl) against a guy blowing his brains out. At least it'll have the pic advantage.

You're basing Dragon Ages strength based on a random vendor with like 3 lines.

I completely forgot Sandal was even from Dragon Age. I figured F-Zero wouldn't be too far behind Legend of Dragoon, since F-Zero is well known to Nintendo fans even if very few of them have actually played it. Though, I forgot that Legend of Dragoon beat Mario Kart DS easily, so I went way too high on F-Zero here.
