It's really, really close. Don't let Capcom win.

I'm amazed it's that close actually. 1854 to 1853 for Capcom as of this post.

This is ridiculously close.

Okay. Obsidian MUST win this!

I'm in the approach, five by five.

I'd vote Capcom if I could be arsed. The Resident Evil series alone justifys this. Voting Obsidian is a bit like giving the Nobel peace prize to a newly elected president.

You're saying voting obsidian mocks and denigrates both Nelson Mandela's torture, imprisonment, and heroic forgiveness of his enemies?

I'd say the Resident Evil series is probably the best reason not to vote Capcom. Better reasons to vote Capcom would be Devil May Cry or Street Fighter.

If the best reason to vote Capcom is Streetfighter then Capcom should be kicked off a cliff.

Maybe you should have used a towel afterwards. I know. I know. Blood stains are such a bother to get out.

"Your Job is not to die for your country, but set a man on fire, and take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe."

Its interesting that the vote is so close, IMO. Over the years CAPCOM has had a number of popular games and series to its credit:

 

Street Fighter

Darkstalkers

Power Stone

1942

Viewtiful Joe

Resident Evil

Devil May Cry

Megaman

Breath of Fire

Final Fight

Ghouls n Goblins

Bionic Commando

Dungeons and Dragons: Tower of Doom/Shadow over Mystara

Monster Hunter

Omnimusha

Dead Rising

Lost Planet

 

A testament to either Obsidian's reception amid gamers, or an indication of a diehard following?

Wierd, I can't vote, even logged in.

Poll seems to be closed now. Capcom won the poll by 47 votes. Still need to see what the final tally is though with the bonus votes and any double votes removed.

Similar thing happened last year with Relic. They were seeded as 8th (I think) and ended up making it to the final four where things tied three times before the guys who made D&D online finally won.

 

They officially didn't make it, even so they would probably have been thwarted because their next opponent was Bethesda, and as Obsidian hasn't had much in the way of games out recently, I'd guess bethsoft would win.

 

Although it's gonna be clash of the titans as Bunjie takes on Blizzard.

Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition!

 

Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.

I didn't realize Turbine was such a favorite over there. That's great.

 

Also, DDO is not exactly there strongest property. Asheron's Call was a major player back in the day, and LotR Online is probably their cash cow.
