You think Dead Space might not be weak?

I can't speak for the person you quoted, but Dead Space was spoken of very highly pretty much everywhere. It wouldn't surprise me at all if it wasn't turbo-fodder.

Why can't it not be weak? I mean we're clearly using weak as a relative term, but there's no reason for it to be some fodder game.

Dead Space should be alright. Fodder, yeah, but I'd still take it over UYA.

Love that board vote for KOTOR.

Dead Space isn't a complete unknown.

I know it's a GotY poll and all, but seriously - it lost to Guitar Hero World Tour, of all games. That's terrible no matter how you slice it!

The only explanation I can think of for its performance here: the hilariously terrible boxart. It probably received some joke support as a result.

Snap reaction: IF (huge if) KotOR holds this %, it should work Halo in a 1v1.

It is a gimmie still, but everyone else in the division is basically going "I can take out my opponent in a more impressive fashion than you" while FFX and FFIX just shrug and go about their merrily way.

The top tiers are really starting to separate themselves from the lower tiers. The overall prediction percentage was below 80 but the top 5 tiers manage to break 90. The last perfect still stands tall. Once again we lost exactly one -1 bracket.

Only 1 person fell off the Top 50. Blitzball1080 did not have San Andreas beating Dead Space.

Rock Band 2 leeched votes from World Tour as well, for what it's worth!

13 hour matches are fun. Let's hope it doesn't break the updater at 2:00 AM.

Didn't the contest matches so far end at 11? this one started at midnight so it was the last match that had the extra hour.

When DST ends and the clocks go back one hour (which will happen soon), the match is extended by hour. The 11 hour match occurs when we go from standard time into DST and the clocks go forward one hour, resulting in an 11 hour match. The only time we had an 11 hour match was back on 3/14/2010.


We are going to need the extra hour for this match, because vote totals are already pretty bad after 5 minutes. The extra hour also extends the night vote by one hour, which will help out whatever game gets the night vote. Which should be DMC.

Persona 3/Civilization IV! My bracket has Civilization winning, but I'm feeling uneasy about it.

After that, though? Not planning to bank for a long time! My next scheduled bank at the moment is BioShock/Kingdom Hearts II, but I'm not totally sure what my plan is yet.

I'm not banking till AT LEAST Pheonix Wright vs Mario Kart Wii.

The seeding pretty much is the only thing that has me scared (plus the at risk I'll have at that point).

Otherwise I'd go MK easily.
