Did TRE also?

Or was that Terra > Dante?


Nope, I had Vincent winning. I had one of the better Oracle predictions for that match as well. Let's not talk about Terra vs Dante. >_>

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

Match XXXIII: (1) Final Fantasy X vs. (16) Viewtiful Joe

Information

Name: Final Fantasy X
Year: 2001
Previous Performance: SpC2k9 – 4th in round 6

Name: Viewtiful Joe
Year: 2003
Previous Performance: N/A

Analysis

At the half way point we’ve reached our third and final board favourite to win this contest. Both Smash games have done their job to look good and now it’s Final Fantasy X’s turn to show what it can do. I know these matches don’t mean anything, but a bad start here would probably convince some people that Final Fantasy X is in danger. Oddly enough Final Fantasy X was the overall one seed after the nominations yet it gets listed here instead of the top of the bracket. Then again having it and both Smash games in the same half would be pretty crazy.

It seems that Viewtiful Joe hasn’t aged well, not that he was very strong to begin with. In 2004 the character gave Tails his first win, but in 2007 he was just crushed in his four-pack. Even in the vote-in the game was the weakest one to make the bracket losing to titles such as Guitar Hero II and Wii Sports, games you’d expect to perform poorly since they run largely on apathy which is hard to get in a 12-way match. The game is also an action game and those have a history of being fairly weak.

Final Fantasy X should break 80% and I would be pretty surprised if it failed to do so. I would blame it on Viewtiful Joe having hidden and surprising strength, but the two Smash games would win this round. Some people have called it unfair that Final Fantasy X has such an easy path to the final again, but looking at some of its future opponents I can tell it won’t be an easy ride once we get out of the division.

charmander6000’s Bracket: Final Fantasy X > Viewtiful Joe

charmander6000’s Prediction: Final Fantasy X wins, 84.52% - 15.48%

AKJ
Jmast
Lopen
Red Sox
Sephirot


Where is this from? My records have 16/123 with Kerrigan over Vincent. My record is from near the end of Round 1 so it isn't completely up to date but I don't think any more brackets would be accepted at that point and there should be very few if any errors in the brackets entered.

Seriously? I have no memory of this. If so.......gah.

According to my records, you had Dante and Vincent winning.

Anyways from what I've got the following people had Terra over Kerrigan in 2k5:

The whole Dante/Terra/Kerrigan/Vincent fourpack is the worst thing in the history of stats topics related to how absolutely easy the matches were to pick. Worse than my Mario/Samus crap.

There was literally no way Vincent wasn't winning two matches that contest.

My worst pick was Serious Sam > Mega Man no question. Barely knew anything about Mega Man at the time.

Out of matches where I really should have known better? Magus > Crono and Terra to the Sweet Sixteen for sure.

My worst pick ever? Gotta be Ellis > Shepard. I didn't know Mass Effect 2 was a big deal - heck, I didn't even know it was coming out! All I knew was that the original ME sucked horribly in the previous Games contest, and that L4D looked considerably better.

Watching Vincent/Kerrigan be one of the most debated matches ever, only for Vincent to end up nearly quadruple her, will always be a classic contest moment.

A shame that I think I had Magus winning that division. lol Magus.

Yep. I even wanted to pick Vincent > Magus, but didn't out of fanboyism.
