SSBB

Bioshock

MGS4

LfD

SSBB, Bioshock, and MGS4 all lead by 2-0.

Fallout 3 and Left for Dead, the only one that should have been close, is tied at 1-1.

For all of you Wii obsesses going "Where the heck is Okami?", it isn't in here because it was released for the PS2 a while ago. It is in the "Probably Made It," category in 2006.

DITTO!

Orange Box

yesh i no it didn't come out in 2008

Wow. Looks like we might have an upset. I thought Fallout was better.

SSBB: 3, Persona 4: 0

Bioshock: 3, LBP: 0

MGS4: 3, WoG: 0

LfD: 2, Fallout 3: 1

Um...."Orange Box?" We're not taking suggestions on what should go in the final competition until 2010.

Still a lot of time to vote.

-MT

BTW, if it was December 2010 was here right now, here's an idea of how things would look.

------------------------------------------

Play-in: Perfect Dark vs. Neverwinter Nights

1 Metroid Prime© vs. Perfect Dark

2 Halo© vs. Black and White

3 Call of Duty(P) vs. LoZ: Twi Princess

4 Super Mario Galaxy© vs. Shadow of Colossus

5 Metroid Prime 3(S) vs. MGS 2(L)

6 Halo 3(S) vs. Battlefield 2

7 Metroid Prime 2(S) vs. Mass Effect

8 Halo 2© vs. Lost Planet: Critical Condition

9 Resident Evil 4© vs. Metroid Fusion

10 Call of Duty 4(S) vs. The Sims©

11 Fallout 3(P) vs. SW Knights of the Old Republic

12 Metroid Prime Hunters(L) vs. LoZ Windwaker

13 Bioshock(P) vs. Okami(L)

14 SSBB(S) vs. God of War

15 2009 winner© vs. MGS 4(P)

16 2010 winner© vs. Left for Dead(P)

---------------------------------------------

Now, obviously, there are going to be more At-Large bids between now and 2010, so a lot of games on the right side are in trouble. If it has a "C" next to it, that means it has clinched a spot in the tournament by winning the game of the year. (BTW, if the Sims were in any other year, it wouldn't even have come close to winning). If a game has an (S) next to it, it is almost beyond a doubt that it is "safe." If it has a (P) next to it, it is "probably safe." If it has a "L" next to it, it is likely that it is in. If it has nothing, it may not be there at the end of '10.

(1)Super Smash Bros. Brawl vs. (8)Persona 4(Yeah, this year did suck)= SSBB

(2)Bioshock vs. (7)Little Big Planet= Little Big Planet

(3)Metal Gears Solid 4 vs. (6)World of Goo= MGS 4

(4)Fallout 3 vs. (5)Left For Dead

11 Fallout 3(P) vs. SW Knights of the Old Republic

We all know option number two would win.

As for these options for voting, I haven't played very many of these games. I'm not too into shooter games. (Even in SWKOTOR, I always used a vibrosword before I got my lightsaber)

Wow. A vote for #7.

SSBB: 4, Persona 4: 0

Bioshock: 3, LBP: 1

MGS4: 4, WoG: 0

LfD: 2, Fallout 3: 2

The #1 and #3 games are blowing their opponents out of the water. I was a little surprised at the vote for LBP. It was a little fun, but I didn't think it was really all that great.

Persona 4 absolutely sucked. It's on here because there's nothing else. World of Goo was ok, I guess.

I loved Brawl, Bioshock, and Solid 4. I got the feeling Fallout and Left for Dead overachieved a little bit, but hey, it's the end result that counts.

We all know option number two would win.

Not sure. We're talking about the quality of the game here, and I've only played two SW games so far(this one, and the Force Unleashed, which was extremely overrated if you ask me). While KotOR was pretty good for a game back then, I'm not sure if it'll match up with the probably more recent at large it gets paired against. But that's all the way in 2010. Still got a ways to go until then.

-MT

Not sure if it's worth showing or not, but here was the bracket for 2007:

The first round was....not pretty at all.

(1)Super Mario Galaxy: 7, (8)Crysis: 0

(2)Halo 3: 7, (7)World in Conflict: 0

(3)Metroid Prime 3: 7, (6)Lost Planet: 0

(4)Call of Duty 4: 7, (5)Mass Effect: 0

The 2nd round got VERY interesting, especially that 3 vs. 2 upset

(1)Super Mario Galaxy: 5, (4)Call of Duty 4: 2

(3)Metroid Prime 3: 4, (2)Halo 3: 3

And then Metroid's "cinderella run" ended the same way Crysis' and Call of Duty's did: with a blowout. I was the only one who thought Metroid was better, but whatever.

(1)Super Mario Galaxy: 6, (3)Metroid Prime 3: 1

-MT

SSBB

Bioshock

MGS4

Fallout 3

Thinking of Bioshock, I'm trying to build a Big Daddy MOC. I've got the perfect drill piece from a Rock Raiders set!

Not to be annoying but isn't Bioshock a 2007 game? I'm pretty sure it is.

It was, but I accidentally left it out in the 2007 bracket, so it goes here before I forget it again.

Things are back to normal. Bioshock increases the gap between it and LBP, SSBB and MGS4 have commanding leads, and the Fallout 3 vs. Left for Dead has another lead change.

SSBB 5-0 Persona 4

Bioshock 4-1 Little Big Planet

Metal Gears Solid 5-0 World of Goo

Fallout 3-2 Left for Dead

I think both Fallout 3 or Left for Dead have a chance for an upset of SSBB in the 2nd round....thoughts?

The Bioshock vs. MGS4 matchup is going to be interesting. Maybe as good as last year's Metroid Prime 3 vs. Halo 3 battle in the semifinals.

-MT

My bad, 2010 will be in a whole different decade. So there will be no 2010 winner, leaving the door open for another at large.

By virtue of total domination, #1 SSBB and #3 Metal Gears Solid 4 have moved onto the next round. Up next for Guns of the Patriots is either Bioshock or Little Big Planet, and top ranked Brawl will be facing either Fallout 3 or Left for Dead.

Scores:

#2 Bioshock: 4, #7 Little Big Planet: 1

#4 Fallout 3: 3, #5 Left for Dead: 2

-MT

SSBB

BioShock

MGS4

Left for Dead

And we have a tie...again. 3-3 between Fallout and Left for Dead. Bioshock is ahead 5-1, SSBB and MGS4 are continuing the blowouts.

-MT

The voting is over! SSBB, Bioshock, and MGS 4 all easily move on. Fallout 3 wins because of a tiebreaker.

Round 2 is posted.
