Some of your hardest March Mayhem brackets?

[Eri]

Square Enix vs Treyarch? Oh god

Visceral vs Game Freak? Dead Space has gotten really big as of late, and a lot of people love and hate pokemon

Capcom vs Rockstar San Diego Rockstar having Red Dead under their belt is pretty huge

Square Enix vs Zynga.. Not easy

Bioware vs Bungie? Oh god

Not as easy as I thought to predict who will win, I'd rather not put Zynga as a hopeful, but I have no doubt they'll somehow get very far

Mojang v. Nintendo is a bummer. As awesome as Mojang (and transitively Minecraft and Notch) is, Nintendo is virtually guaranteed to get into the Final Four at least.

 

[Ladette]

Zynga vs. Blizzard
Zynga vs. Bioware


I can't see this "contest" ending well.

 

[PlasmaFrog]

I'd love to back up Rare, but selling their soul to the devil wasn't such a great idea.

 

[infohippie]

Bethesda vs CCP? In the first round? WTF, escapist?

 

[Who Dares Wins]

If we're counting results of our own voting:

-Blizzard vs Square Enix
-Oh God, Volition vs Bethesda: Saints Row vs Elder Scrolls, hardest decision of my life (this day)

Starting:

Bioware vs TellTale - Thou must kiddeth me, I'm not choosing between that, *****.
CD Projekt vs Game Freak - C'mon, who makes this.

 

[MisterShine]

I got through with only a few stumbles, though now I'm at the final round, head to head:

Bioware v. Obsidian

I don't know what to do

 

[MasterChief892039]

Bioware vs Bethesda
I like them both so much

Bioware v. Obsidian

New Vegas and all its bugs were not a good way for me to be introduced to Obsidian. Though I've heard that wasn't the first game they've put out that had problems.

 

[Falconknight06]

Mojang vs. Nintendo
So tough. Newbie vs. Classic

 

[Eisenfaust]

bioware v bungie...
bioware v bethesda...

geee, this is cruel

 

[MisterShine]

New Vegas and all its bugs were not a good way for me to be introduced to Obsidian. Though I've heard that wasn't the first game they've put out that had problems.

Oh absolutely true. It'd be accurate to say all of their games have bug problems.

Doesn't change the fact they've given me KOTOR 2, Mask of the Betrayer and Alpha Protocol. Some of the best RPGs I've ever played.

 

[Protocol95]

The toughest for me was Bioware and Dice. No such tasks should ever be asked of a person.

 

[AvsJoe]

I was split between choosing who I want to win (like I did last year) and who I think will win. That was my toughest choice.

Other tough choices:
Bungie vs LucasArts
Ubisoft Montreal vs HAL Labratory
Valve vs Double Fine Productions (WTF guys?)
- Rockstar San Diego vs 2K Marin
Capcom vs Rare
Treyarch vs Square Enix (T.T)
Naughty Dog vs Zynga
Epic Games vs Lionheart Studios (T.T)
Sony Online Entertainment vs EA Canada (T.T)
- Rockstar San Diego vs Capcom
Epic Games vs Nintendo
- Rockstar San Diego vs Turbine
Epic Games vs Rockstar North
Valve vs Blizzard

 

[Mr. Omega]

I'll just copy-paste myself...

My favorite first round match would be Nintendo vs Mojang, because while Nintendo had one of the best years it's had in a long time, and 2011 is looking to be even better, Mojang gave me one of the few PC exclusive games I'm willing to put on my piece-o'-crap laptop. That being said, this is the internet, the breeding ground of PC eilitists and Nintendo haters, so I know this is pretty much no contest, but to me, at least, it was a great match-up.

Hell, as much of a Nintendo fanboy I am, I had to make some VERY tough choices.
Nintendo vs Platinum
Nintendo vs Capcom.
Double Fine vs Valve
Double Fine vs Capcom
Capcom vs Game Freak
Ubisoft vs Gearbox
Telltale vs Gearbox
Ubisoft vs HAL Labs.

Had to make lots of tough choices here...

 

[J-dog42]

My toughest probably had to be Dice vs Bungie. I had to give it to Dice in the end, purely on the basis of how much fun I had in the Bad Company games.
I also had a hard time with Rockstar San Diego and Game Freak. Don't make me choose between my pokemon and RDR. It isn't fair I tell you. That one went to Rockstar by a hair.

 

[Bobbity]

Bioware vs. Bethesda? Ouch. That was pretty damn hard. I also had Team Ico up against Mojang, and that wasn't exactly easy.

Also, everyone might say that Mojang will likely get beaten out by Nintendo, but everyone that's said that has also voted Mojang. I wouldn't be surprised if it pulls off an upset and wins this one.

 

[Jelly ^.^]

Bioware Vs Bethesda =/

Zynga Vs the world =O

Zynga Vs Nintendo I have as final two... :S

 

[darth.pixie]

Obsidian vs CD Projekt,

Relic vs CD Projekt

...I just had no idea what to pick so I just went with what I played last.

 

[Mehall]

Anything with Team Meat, Team Ico, Bioware or Mojang.

All of those were hard every time (though I did vote Ninty over Mojang. Sorry Notch)

EDIT: Oh, and CCP had some bad matchups for themselves too.

CD Projeckt got byes from me till they were up against any of the above, I think.

 

[The Unworthy Gentleman]

Bethesda Vs Obsidian
Bethesda Vs Firaxis
Bethesda Vs Valve (Final showdown)

Each time, Bethesda won. Skyrim edged in and won it for them.
