Round 1 Persona 5 vs. Heavy Rain

Moltars Analysis

Each Persona game is far stronger than the one that preceded it. At this rate, Persona 8 is going to be like the strongest game on the website! Weve already seen P5 not get doubled by Breath of the Wild, which Im guessing like 90% of the games in this bracket would fail to do.

Heavy Rain is less remembered these days for being a groundbreaking game and more so for memes and funny scenes. Itll get killed here but it shouldnt be one of the worst beatdowns of the contest.

Moltars Bracket: Persona 5

Moltars Prediction: Persona 5 77%

transiences Analysis

The winner here is obvious, but the percentage? It really comes down to Heavy Rain more than Persona 5. Heavy Rain is better known than most of our 16 seeds, and most of the games that have been mercy killed lately. It's probably like a poor man's Walking Dead? Maybe? Heavy Rain is so old and so mocked at this point that I wouldn't be surprised if it was better remembered as a meme or a joke than a real game.

Persona 5, meanwhile, gets a chance to really shine. Both are Playstation games and P5 is riding high due to the release of Royal this week. I'll be watching this one closely, not because of P5 but to see how Persona is doing. Persona 5's path feels fairly set while P4 could do all sorts of things. P5 probably goes big here, but how big?

transience's prediction: Persona 5 with 77.77%

Leonharts Analysis

Im very interested to see how well Persona 5 does in this contest. Its been given a division thats tailor made for it to win. Itll be viewed as a big disappointment if it gets knocked out before the quarterfinals. I wonder how high it can go against Heavy Rain though, which is probably one of the more well known 16 seeds, even if its probably regarded as a bit of a joke. Weve seen so many blowouts this contest that it might be viewed as a disappointment if Persona 5 doesnt go for 80% here, but I wouldnt get too worried about that here.

Leonharts Vote: Persona 5

Leonharts Prediction: Persona 5 with 75.55%

Kleenexs Analysis

Persona 4 looked plenty good against its opponent a few days ago, and I see no reason Persona 5 shouldnt follow suit today. Im not totally convinced that Persona 5 is actually stronger than Persona 4, but they should be pretty close at the very least. The game did look pretty alright in the 2017 game of the year poll (getting doubled by a Zelda game is pretty alright for those keeping track). Heavy Rain is going to suck shit. Its a 10 year old game that wasnt that strong 10 years ago. Looking down the list of games, theres not much reason Persona 5 shouldnt win this division outright, so it can start here by making a strong statement. No reason this result shouldnt be a blowout.

Kleenexs Prediction: Persona 5 with 79%
