Anyway yeah, Fallout 3 > Halo 3 then. Seems I overestimated L4D <.<; It'll still easily beat Mass Effect though.

Street Fighter 4 died down really fast. Its struggling to make 20k sales a week now.

XBL numbers are pretty useless in general. using them to argue a point is generally dumb (which is why Albion does it)

SF4 is not that strong anyway. it'll probably be stronger amongst the PS3 base than the 360 base.

Because this is Street Fighter 4 we're talking about. You don't need alot of strength to beat a game like that.

You don't a whole lot of strength to top GTAIV. It's not some powerhouse, but SFIV probably isn't the game to do it. I've got it there in the off chance it does, but I'm not expecting it to happen! Still, who knows when you're dealing with GTA in 2009.

I love Street Fighter as much as the next guy (probably more childhood memories than any other game), but it's not as though that series has ever done well here. It had one good poll result against RE where it benefited from some of the most obvious picture advantage ever, and that's about it.

Eh, Ryu does pretty decently. And really, one could make the case that SF2 losing narrowly to SMRPG is a lot better than the stats make it out to be.

FFX, MGS2, Vice City, Kingdom Hearts

FFX obvious wins, but who would you pick in the most ridiculous split ever? These are all legendary PS2 games, but GTA has fallen off the map, Kingdom Hearts seems to get SFFd by Metal Gear Solid, and who knows if MGS franchise voting will help 2 out. Then there's how FFX affects all three. What a dumb match.

UltimaterializerX | Posted 3/30/2009 2:52:05 AM | message detail
Hmm.

FFX will probably weaken MGS2 a lot, while MGS anything always seems to weaken Kingdom Hearts a lot. That leaves.... Vice City?... as the game least likely to get screwed by a split.

**** trusting GTA to do anything, MGS2 it is.

Yeah I went and looked that over, and I think Metroid Prime will take second place in two rounds. Which royally screws over SSBM in Round 3.

I have Prime > KH then Prime > FFX. I have a feeling all of those games will be close together with FFX being the strongest, but it will be hurt badly by KH in round 2.

I have Metroid Prime finishing third in round 2. It didn't impress at all last game contest against Half Life, and this was before the Half Life 2 boost (back when Gordon was a joke). I can't see it being much stronger now.

I really want to see what Starcraft's matches will look like....hopefully with Korea as one of the countries on the list. And Crono seems to do decently in the Netherlands for some reason, despite sucking in the rest of Europe.
