I recently decided to participate in a gamefaqs tournament bracket for the best series ever. Basically they picked 32 video games series and are letting setting them up bracket style, allowing people to vote for which is the better series. We are still in the first round and I am doing pretty well. Knowing a little bit about bracket and the strategy associated with such, I have a few risks in my bracket designed to separate me from the generic field and allow me a chance to win. So far those have all gone my way with the exception of one. I got Mega Man X over Suikoden, Fire Emblem over Silent Hill, even the much surprising (to everyone but me) Warcraft over Grand Theft Auto. The only one I have lost was Halo Versus Castlevania where I thought Halo would pull the upset.

One thing to remember is that this bracket is filled to win. There is no way that I think Halo is a better series than Castlevania, but I needed a sleeper and the best castlevania games haven't gotten much buzz, even though they are very good.

So having only lost one I'm feeling pretty good until today. Today's match is (2) Super Smash Brothers versus (7) Dragon Quest. I can't believe this is a 2 v 7 match up, so I pick Dragon Quest the whole way. Right now SSB is beating Dragon Quest 75% to 25%. I have Dragon Quest going to the Semis, even beating Super Mario Brothers (big risk, I know). So basically right now I'm getting fucked. I was prepared to have Dragon Quest lose to Mario, but to Super Fucking Smash Brothers. The challege is best series ever . . . there have only been two fucking smash games. One was great, and the second was so-so, but it doesn't constitute a muther fucking series if you only have two games and it is a fighting game. The street fighter series, which actually pretends to have a story line unline the Smash sereis, isn't even on the fucking ballot. Then, not only does Smash get the 2 seed, it actually is holding up by beating Dragon Quest . . . fucking Dragon Quest. This is some messed up shit. You know there are eight (8) Dragon Quest games, and that doesn't even include the spin offs. There is a Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime game for the DS, you can play Dragon Quest on your cell phone. They make Dragon Quest toilet paper so you can wipe your ass with a slime as you shit out game like Super fucking Smash Brothers. We all know I like smash as much as the next guy, buy winning 3 to 1 over and Enix developed RPG that is ported to every platform know to man. That is fucking ridiculous. That's it, I quit!
