Not to mention Crono/Mario's craziness was that Crono seemingly had an insurmountable lead with like 2 hours to go and Mario somehow managed to win (aided by the poll being open for longer than 24 hours).

When you're talking close wire to wire matches, the go to example will always be CT/LttP.

My thoughts exactly. I didn't check GameFAQs till now (assumed a 24-hour delay), but the vibes from this topic had me thinking CT/LttP.

I haven't visited this board in... let's say over a decade, but I had to check in to see how everyone's taking the RE2/Bloodborne matchup. I'm pulling for Bloodborne, personally :)

I think I'd be most shocked at this point if whoever wins wins by more than 50

Pure slugfest

All that's missing are frequent lead changes. I want this to enter CT/LttP territory.

It might actually be to ME2's benefit for Bloodborne to win since it won't be able to rally next round, so it'll be facing a weaker version than the one we're seeing today.
LOL RE2 just extends the lead out to 23 as it looked like a change was imminent.

Shutting the rally down has had an effect. You might get some people to come back but at a drastically reduced rate.

Was the delay worth it?

ME2 held up okay enough on the rallies? Lost ~3% by the looks of it. Still 55-45ing despite that so it looks good next round.

I think there was a rally on PS4 reddit as well to boost the exclusive games, idk why they do that lol, like its fine if you want to boost a game you love, but boost a game just because its on a console you bought is absolute stupidity.

I would be cool with the start time for the matches changing until our schedules break, that'd be fine.

Or not, c'este la vie.

Just wouldn't be happy with this happening mid-match or SB changing his mind from earlier when he said the match should end at the same time.
Yuri_LowelI 4/21/2020 1:01:30 PM#241
The bloodborne and PS4 fanboys are pathetic.

IF Bloodborne does win i can't wait until it Faces BOTW. Its going to squash those rallies like the miserable little ant that it is.

As I said in another post, you could make it to have both pairs of polls running at the same time, so the start time of today's pair of matches wouldn't be affected.

I can imagine it. Horizon is pretty good, and I don't think RE2 or Bloodborne would beat ME2 by much at all if they do beat it.
