95.55% for RE4 in the bracket stats. Looks like Dreamcast games will perform like crap if a Dreamcast game could only get 4.45% bracket support.

The other three GTAs did about as expected. Vice City is the first one to disappoint.

Jet Grind Radio having the lowest bracket support of any game so far in this contest spells bad news for Skies of Arcadia. Skies will have much higher bracket support than Jet Grind Radio, but I don't think it's getting above 50% bracket support.

Also, Skies is a Dreamcast exclusive game because the GameCube version is listed as "Canceled" here:

http://www.gamefaqs.com/ps2/537507-skies-of-arcadia

The only thing that Skies has going for it is the sequel to the original game.

Whoops, I made a mistake. I meant PS2 version. But still, it's marked as "Canceled". Had the PS2 version been released, the game would have a higher playrate and would be slightly stronger as a result of that.

Several Dreamcast games got enhanced ports when everyone realized that DC was a sinking ship. SoA:L and Resident Evil Code: Veronica X are two of the bigger ones I can think of right now. Just because they have extra jazz added to their titles does not make them sequels.

"On December 26, 2002, an enhanced port, Skies of Arcadia Legends was released in Japan for the GameCube. It was subsequently released in North America on January 27, 2003, and in Europe on May 23, 2003. Legends features slightly enhanced graphics, shorter loading times and some additional content. The game also includes the Dreamcast's downloadable add-ons, and some new scenes, some of which tell stories of events that happened prior to the game."

Luster, sequel or port, it's going to have a lot of votes due to it being on both the Dreamcast and GameCube. There's no way Baldur's Gate 2 could win here.

Hmm, a tricky one. I don't like using GotY polls, but with so little information on Dead Rising, I might have to.

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2626
http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3718

Dead Rising got 18.11% on Gears of War while Demon's Souls got 24.00% on Uncharted 2. I know for sure that I would easily pick Uncharted 2 over Gears of War, which means I feel 100% confident in Demon's Souls > Dead Rising. I would pick Mega Man 9 over TWEWY and since Mega Man 9/Demon's Souls was already pretty close, I think this gives TWEWY some room to be stronger than Dead Rising.

Great! Thank you very much. So technically this means: UC2 >>>>> GoW >>> MM9 > (DS >TWEWY) > DR

I'm not sure about DS > TWEWY, but that could be the deciding factor here.

A high prediction percentage was to be expected but I didn't think it would be this high. RE4 manages to get the highest prediction percentage so far and will probably have the highest prediction percentage for the contest. All the -3s and better get the match right. The -7s and better manage to stay above 99. Even as far down as the -16 manage to stay above 90.

No one fell off the Top 50 this time. No one in the top 271 got the match wrong.
