KH1 will smush MW2. MW2 isn't strong.

Bioshock is looking like it would manhandle Halo 2, which is exactly what last round's result said it would do.

Given that more people had Bioshock > Battlefront II than had Brawl > Mario Kart DS, I won't be surprised if KH2 has only like a 30% prediction percentage here.

Bioshock is the higher seed too. given how this has been counter to every expectation, I could see KH shooting up after 15 minutes here.

this could end up being a fairly expected result. just not an expected beginning.

-4s, -5s and -6s go perfect and we only lose a single -7 bracket. -11 and better stay above 90. It's not too bad but I would have expected more from a Zelda game.

No one fell off the Top 50.

Bioshock is looking like it would manhandle Halo 2, which is exactly what last round's result said it would do.

It should easily have no problem with Halo 2, based on what BioShock gets on Halo 3 when you extrapolate through Portal/BioShock and then Portal/Halo 3 from the last games contest. Halo 3 got 46.88% on Portal, while BioShock got 48.56% on Portal. A simple x-stat calculation projects BioShock to get 51.73% on Halo 3 and Halo 2 is weaker than 3.

Ulti justifying his worth = spam.


Anyway, Bioshock's looking good here like last round suggested. I don't think Bioshock 2 helped it any since I don't buy ME2 helping ME here much. Right now, Portal would look even better on KH2 before considering any reasons to boost this year...I'm okay with that!

It is true, I wouldn't get vig shot, because I avoid suspicion, I don't prance around topics calling myself the godfather, it tends to make people suspicious.

Who says I'm breaking cover at all? Much like Mario mafia, I'm just bad enough so the scum team leaves me alive but just good enough to win games. I'm at a perfect medium, and no offense but I don't want to hit your level of influence. You getting town BP and drawing an assassin shot in MvC2 was tough to watch.
