Oh, don't get me wrong. NSMBWii probably wins by a decent margin, but I'd sooner expect it to be 55/45 or less than I would 60/40. I'm just not sure NSMBWii being NSMBWii is enough to put it over MW2.

UC2 didn't impress. There's no reason to believe it stands a chance against Halo 1.

WhiteLens | Posted 12/6/2010 8:47:32 PM | message detail
The only real argument against it now is that all-things Halo have a tendency to choke.
But usually we can spot that possibility during the first round or so, which didn't seem to occur this time.

However UC2 has shown signs of choking with it allowing a non-Square PS1 RPG break 40% on it, and getting almost 54/46 against SF IV, which is about getting that much on 3D Sonic.

"Choking" is a myth. If it loses, it's because it's weaker, not because it "choked". =P

Fallout 3 is struggling to go back up again. Batman probably got the board vote here and I expect Fallout 3 to rise after the freeze.

Max Score: 126

Not too bad for prediction percentage. Even in the top tiers, a few users get the match wrong. Nothing too big and it's a pretty normal looking chart.

2 people fell off the Top 50. lolasdaddy and Randomcrazydude did not have Oblivion winning the match.

1 person got the match wrong and lived. zidaneman also did not have Oblivion winning the match.

Feeling good about taking Fallout to the semis, especially since it should go up from here.

And even if it doesn't... 60% on Batman is still quite a bit better than 64% on DMC3, 56% on LOL GTA, and a close victory over ToS.
