Lucario would kill Mewtwo in a character battle. Same with Squirtle vs Pichu. Not that either game has a pic advantage. --- lol opinions |

Yeah Mewtwo for the win. Pretty much the only major gripe I have with Brawl's roster was the lack of him. Ike > Roy though too. |

Funny
how all of the buzz is on SSB, while a battle is going on now that will
probably be one of our closest yet if HL2 keeps on slowly gaining on MP
the way it has. --- In 2012, the new Mudkip Invasion will begin... This user is a proud Canadian. |

MP/HL2
is good today (though my bracket just crept back to #50 and will never
see the leaderboard again)...but this is one of B8's favorite arguments
and the argument's between the top two contenders for the championship. --- EPONA EPONA Epona Epona Epona EPONA EPONA Epona EPONA EPONA Epona EPONA EPONA Epona |

Just
noticed the poll updater problem. I tried to use the manual updater
link, but it doesn't work. When I tried to trigger a manual update, I
got this message: 2010-12-15 17:43:47: 4182: This is NOT a valid contest poll. 2010-12-15 17:43:57: 4182: This is NOT a valid contest poll.

From: MudkipMaster30 | #162 There's no way it will gain fast enough to cover the distance. You have to remember that Metroid is probably one of the most consistant games out there in terms of trends. It's not going to fall off the face of the earth at 8pm like most other NIntendo games. --- http://i49.tinypic.com/2ry672r.jpg |

I'm
pretty amazed that HL2 has been slowly gaining with the ASV today. It's
going against a Nintendo game and HL has always had a bad day vote. --- Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest. |

Since
I started tracking updates starting with the 5:41 PM update, Metroid

From: red sox 777 | #169 Metroid (and Samus) is one of the most rock steady entrants in the field. The only thing going for HL2 is England at this point, and it's getting close to midnight there. This match isn't going anywhere. --- http://i49.tinypic.com/2ry672r.jpg |
LinkMarioSamus | Posted 12/15/2010 3:31:25 PM | message detail |
Off topic: I'm amazed that SotC was able to rally to victory against MGS4 while Diablo II wasn't. And I guess HL2 winning the ASV is its one silver lining. Wow. I did not expect Prime to be winning this easily, especially after last year, but what can I say?

It's so baffling to me that Brawl could beat Melee. Melee is so much better, aghhhh. I'm so excited for this match. I only hope Melee torches Brawl like it should. --- One of the most troublesome things in life is that what you do or do not want has little to do with what does or does not happen. 4983-4640-3352 Brawl Code |

Waker actually has a terrific soundtrack. Going to use the Zelda Series
soundtrack as a substitute for Melee's music tonight, since Melee's
music is really lackluster. --- Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest. |

From: FastFalcon05 | #174 Can you honestly picture a WII game winning GOTD? I've said this a million times already, Melee is going to STOMP Brawl. It's not even going to be close. And by that i mean it's not going to be a 51-49, but more like a 55-45(which in context of this match is not close). Remember it's a night match so even if Melee races to a 60-40 First hour Europes horrible taste and casual Smash fanbase will drag it down to 45%. Once Pro SMash players wkae up in the morning though it wil go back to 48%. --- http://www.gifsoup.com/view2/1499384/me3-o.gif |

Melee's music is really lackluster. I think what he meant to say is that it's lackluster in comparison to Brawl, not on its own. --- See You Space Cowboy... |
MudkipMaster30 | Posted 12/15/2010 4:15:17 PM | message detail |
Today
has been such a horrible day for me, and now it looks like HL2 won't
finish its comeback in time, even if I am only losing eight points from
it. The only way this can get worse is if gets ahead of Melee to start,
and then my bracket is completely screwed over. >_> --- In 2012, the new Mudkip Invasion will begin... This user is a proud Canadian. |

Melee
itself is lackluster. They basically took SSB64, nerfed all the good
characters, added some pallette swaps and called it a day. At least
Brawl made an effort to be original. --- http://i49.tinypic.com/2ry672r.jpg |

From: BlAcK TuRtLe | #190 Black Turtle, you are slowly becoming one of the most entertaining users in a "so bad it's hilarious way". Melee is a great game and so is Brawl.

Melee's
soundtrack is lackluster compared to most games. I really hate to favor
Brawl over Melee in anything, but I grudgingly have to admit that I
like its soundtrack a bit more. --- Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest. |

Brawl easily has the better soundtrack, since they took almost every single good song from Melee and put it in there. Of course, all the original songs suck and all the songs taken from other games are awesome. It's nice symbolism for the current state of Nintendo's game design. --- `·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´ This was a triumph. |
