I knew I shouldn't have listened to those buttholes in the crew topic and just stuck with Wrex over Pit.

Wrex into second and cutting Cecil...


And Pit is cutting Wrex. Don't count the chickens before they hatch!

I guess people care about the Mass Effect series then, I should probably play it sometime.

I'm very surprised at this. Unlike Garrus and Mordin, Wrex had his biggest impact in the first Mass Effect, which is easily the weakest of the trilogy around here. Very surprised AND pleased, though if a guy like Wrex can do this, Aeris is pretty much dead.


I'm not sure it is. Think about the penetration it's had since Shepard 1.0.

And in any case, Wrex is awesome as hell for anyone that got to see him in ME2/3.

Pfft. Get the Missingno. stuffers.

They get their votes to count as the Tidus stuffers' votes are removed by the blocker.

Glad I no-picked 2nd and 3rd here. I had no faith in Pit beating Wrex. Hope Cecil can hang on though.

Also this strong showing by Wrex is now the second strong showing by a ME squad member, Garrus did excellent too. That makes Shepard look real good.

I still think Aeris will challenge him though...I think Aeris is still strong. She's the underdog, but people shouldn't write her off. It's still Aeris.

I'm definitely not writing her off but Shepard is still the slight favorite for me

Wrex's lead on Pit was 21 votes before. It's a whopping 6 now. Three way dogfight incoming?

Right, but... if you understand ME and what Shepard is probably hanging at on GameFAQs, Aeris > Shepard is a pick that just doesn't *feel* right. I'd be stunned if she won.

I don't think so, Niko more or less puts at just above Jill at best (not that is a bad performance), likely weaker considering Vercetti's fall.

No, Pit,'s lead was 21. Wrex actually cut him by 27, since he cut those 21, then gained 6 more.

Still rooting for Cecil because he deserves a win after all this time, but I'm fine with Wrex making him earn it.

Nintendo just doesn't look that good right now. It's underperforming in all its debated setups. Even setups where it wasn't supposed to have a chance of losing it's choked.

Now that I think about it, I'd probably vote for all three of these characters over Wario and Red. In a perfect world, this would be a round 2 match.

I know, I know. I use both. For some reason I read 663 as 693. I thought he had cut the lead down to 6 votes. Then I looked again after posting and deleted my post because I realized I had read it wrong.

Scoring 48% on Cecil ain't 'bombing'. That's pretty much exactly what Pit was projected to score in 2k8 agianst 2k8 Cecil. Both of them boosted like whoa, and look mad legit now.

Pit is the solid favorite in this match. Missingno was a ridiculous favorite. It's not showing up to its debated setups.
