Batman didn't extend its lead the last 3 minutes till the freeze. XBC2 probably has a good board vote, but it may be in trouble.

Compared to 83% on Hotline Miami it is

Sure. But TLOu was never in contention of beating Dark souls anyway. The same reason Red Dead 2 can smash similar western Junk but Its not laying a glove on Persona 5.

I'm probably going to play the Zero Escape series at some point while I'm out of work. Shame it's not totally blind, but VLR embarrassing Diablo 3 in the opening minutes is the push I needed.

And people told me it would double it

Seriously

Do not underestimate Switch games in this contest.

Xenoblade 2 imo is a bad BAD game. But it has its fair share of Switch fanboys because thats the only JRPG they played on it.

Also having been around the switch board for years.

Xenoblade 2 >>> Octopath as far as popularity goes.

So Xenoblade 2 could be stronger than Octopath on this site. So in turn....Batman>Undertale.

Why would Xenoblade win the board vote? 90% of Gurus took Batman and we all know how much bracket voting B8 does in the 1st 5 minutes.

This is true. This board loves 1 but doesn't rate 2. Batman is friggin Batman

Either way Batman will do much better in Europe.

The first two minutes Batman blasted it, then the last three minutes XBC2 stalled it. I'd guess most of us vote right at the start.

Terraria is highly acclaimed and still immensely popular on steam. It's still the 14th most played game currently with 46,000 people in-game.

Shame it's going to lose.

If this is what Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is capable of then maybe Xenoblade 1 really is going to run a train on its division.

Of course you'd vote for the trash game.

Have to Agree with this. Zero Escape was a popular Vita/3DS game and a sequel to a cult hit 999.

Ori was predominantly an exclusive to a console noone cares about on this site.

NintendoFAQs with a grim reminder. That update, Board 8 remembered: the terror of being dominated by them, and the shame of being held captive in a birdcage.

Well virtually no one has Xenoblade 2 winning twice so just hope it beats Infinite too and it just winds up being zero sum for the most part

Why are people acting surprised about this?

Leon is the only one who doesn't rate Xenoblade 1 for some reason using useless stats from 2015. The game has significantly gotten stronger.

Xenoblade 1 winning its division isn't even up for DEBATE up to this point. Its going to easily beat whoever comes out of the top half. I've been saying this pre contest. Xenoblade 1 is a beast of a game

Also I had worries about Xeno2 batman. But people kept telling me Batman will double it. Sure it is.

Yeah, that's true. If it beats Batman it is absolutely beating Bioshock.

I also have Arkham City but voted for Xenoblade 2. I even think City is the better game but thought well, Xenoblade 2 may never see another match and its a great game.

Also with this and Ni no Kuni overperforming, good contest for the Welsh.
