Honestly, I think SMRPG will finish above 60% and I wouldn't be surprised if there is some classic RPG SFF going on in this match. Even though the games were released 4 years apart, Square did have a hand in SMRPG and they both definitely appeal to the same type of gamer.

Since European voters can't vote in the first match, Bacon has agreed to let them vote twice in MGS2/RE4.

We've still got a long way to go, but I was only half joking when I said I thought SMRPG could do better on Chrono Cross than it did against Oblivion or GTAV because Cross can't exploit its one massive weakness. SMRPG's percentages in America and Canada in the first two rounds were much, much higher than its final percentage.

This is America SFF

Fun Fact: According to GOTD, Oblivion beats San Andreas 58-42.

Leon, if the match ended now, what does Oblivion get on SA?

Ugh, my SMRPG Oracle is way too low. I thought Oblivion fell to GTA's level rather than GTA being at Oblivion's level because my head refused to accept that a GTA game could look decent.

MGS2 is projected to get like 48% here in 2010

That's a Shadow of the Colossus-inflated number, but this result is hardly surprising!

Man, I was hoping RE4 would do better :(

I feel like it shouldn't be this close?
SMRPG is still going UP, by the way

This is so awesome.

If SMRPG finishes around 57-58%, then Oblivion would beat San Andreas with its GOTD projection. SMRPG's percentage on Oblivion was very close to CC's percentage on San Andreas.

Well, I won't talk as much s*** about MGS as I intended to, assuming MGS2 doesn't go down from here.

The series is still getting wiped out this Round, though.

Remember, Oblivion/SA is even more in favor of Oblivion the more you accept that Wind Waker/Majora's Mask could have SFF.

And if you think Brawl/Majora was goofy, then that makes Prime look better, which makes...SKYRIM look better!
