Subject: Vote for Halo Reach or Starcraft 2 in videogame deathmatch

G4 is currently holding a march madness style bracket for a bunch of video games and this next round is a powerhouse matchup so I thought I would share it. Obviously as the title states its halo reach versus starcraft 2.
Here is the link to the voting page- Vote for your favorite game here

I would like to see what game people like more or want to see move on through this bracket. Please keep the game bashing down to a minimum. thanks.

Currently the vote is as follows:

Starcraft 2: 59%
Halo Reach: 41%

Halo Reach has been as low as 34% and I would hate to see all the FPS's out so fast in this bracket.

I will update every few hours.

To vote you must make an account at g4tv.com

Don't let your favorite game lose vote now!!!

this r sig?

I can already tell there is no point voting. All of the Halo comments get thumbed down and the Starcraft ones get thumbed up. The entire site must be overrun with basement dwelling PC nerds. Or an admin was mad that the pole wasn't going the way they wanted it to. Personally i've always thought RTS games were boring and i'm not good at them anyway. Even Halo Wars is boring for me.

I lol'd at the absurd miscommunication that occurs whenever dibbs post something. Perhaps his brain is so highly evolved that he can no longer clearly communicate with lesser life forms, even among his own species.

Starcraft 2 just got another vote because of this post. This is the incorrect forum for this type of thread.

I don't care. I really don't.

Wrong Forum.

Another thing: if StarCraft were better, it would have less votes, because people would be playing it instead of voting to say it's good.

lol im not posting on this site b/c I want halo to win and im a fanboy. I'll elaborate on this a little.

I never come to these forums b/c they are full of people that refuse to look at other points of view. I am an avid SC 2 player and competitive halo player. I have competed in numerous MLG events since the launch of halo three and I compete on game battles daily.

I spend my time on the MLG forums since they like to look at games for competition and not mass production for moms and grandpas to play just so the company can make more money. Also the parts of the community that I post in are way more intelligent and promote stimulating conversation unlike what I find on these pitiful forums.

Now.... back to the games.

Having played both games in tournament settings I can EASILY say the following....
SC 2 is way more competitive and an all around better made game than Halo Reach. SC2 takes so much skill and knowledge as well as insane amounts of critical thinking to play at a high level. And it is more fun to watch good players play, I am near the top of the competitive scene for reach and even I get bored playing the game so I can't even force myself to watch someone else play it.

Next, I would like to address why I wanted the bungie cult to see the voting, I really have no explanation here, as I just wanted to see a close race and not a blowout (what can I say, I enjoy a good fight). And as for posting in the wrong forum, I could care less as I just copied a few parts from the real discussion I was having on MLG to post here as fast as I could to see how the polls would react, call it an experiment of sorts.

So in summation I do want starcraft 2 to win because it is clearly the better game. If even you people can spot the blatant flaws with Reach, then their must some huge problems with the game.

TL;DR SC2>>>>>>Halo Reach and sc2 should easily win this matchup.

I like how you backed up your opinions with facts and logic /sarcasm.

Both games take skill, but completely different kinds of skill. Starcraft takes strategy and forethought, while Halo takes aiming and quick reflexes. They are both good games but are in different genres and the better game is the opinion of the individual.
