Video Game Tournament Round 2 Part 2
It was a slow week this week...only 5 voters this week in the tournament, and we saw some upsets of usual favorites. Was it because you didn't get out and vote? MOST LIKELY! So vote this time!
---
Elf crushes bandicoot, no remains found. In a not-so-shocking match, returning champion Link steamrolled over Crash Bandicoot 5-0. The favorite has yet to even be voted against.
King Koopa nearly toppled by young mage. A hard-fought battle occurred between Bowser and Vivi, but the young black mage didn't have enough oomph and lost out to the Koopa King 3-2.
Spiky hair no match for stinky farts. In a surprising upset, Mario's other nemesis, Wario, overtook the usual favorite Cloud in a 3-2 match and moved on to the Sweet 16.
Psychic boy troubles evil villian. It was a sad day for Final Fantasy 7, as not one, but two characters were eliminated. In this match, Ness defeated the #2 seed Sephiroth in a 4-1 upset.
Plumber not afraid of vampires. Alucard was once again defeated by Mario in the second round, only scoring one vote in the 4-1 match.
King not distracted by boobs, moves on. The King of All Cosmos scored another amazing upset, this time over Lara Croft, winning with a 4-1 margin.
Dark villian destroys monkey. Donkey Kong's fashionable tie and great ape strength were no match for Magus's dark magic, as Magus upsets the monkey 3-2.
Hedgehog continues to run circles around competition. Sonic had no trouble defeating the future robot X, scoring a 4-1 victory.

And now...Round 2 for Divisions 3 and 4!
(1)PAC-MAN vs. (9)PRINCE OF PERSIA - Battle of the Ps in round 2. Pac-Man, a #1 seed because of his performance in the last tournament, narrowly defeated GTA newcomer CJ first round. The Persian prince also had slight difficulty in moving on to round 2 when he went up against Liu Kang. Now the fruit-gobbling head faces the wall-scaling prince, and neither are going to give up the ghost. Pac-Man made it to the Elite 8 last tournament, but this is as far as the Prince has previously seen. Will the #1 Pac-Man advance, or will we see a huge upset by the Prince?
(4)SUB-ZERO vs. (5)FOX MCCLOUD - Sub-Zero froze up in round 1, nearly being toppled by the Twisted Metal clown. Fox has similar difficulties with Joanna Dark. Both earned their spot in the second round, and both are looking to head into round 3. While Sub-Zero is cold as ice, Fox is just warming up. Last tournament, Sub-Zero exited the tournament by Zelda's hand in the Sweet 16, while Fox was unceremoniously defeated by Mega Man in round 2. So both have something to prove this tournament. Which one will be the victor?
(3)MEGA MAN vs. (6)SAMUS - In round 1, Samus had trouble with the marshmallowy Mallow but managed to squeak out a win. In stark contrast, Mega Man had no trouble blowing away his competition. Now both face off in round 2, and both have humongous blasters at their disposal. Mega Man is fighting to prove he deserves the #1 seeding from last tournament, while Samus is just out to prove she should be IN the tournament, after a disappointed first-round exit in the first tournament. Will the Blue Bomber ease by again, or does Samus have a Chozo trick up her sleeve?
(2)LUIGI vs. (7)BOMBERMAN - Luigi had difficulty defeating the panty-showing Blaze in round 1, barely edging her out. Bomberman, on the other hand, had no problems with his competitor, M. Bison. Now the slighted plumber brother is out to prove he is just as powerful as his counterpart, and Bomberman is just a small blip in his way. Or is he? Because Bomberman is also sporting a new, cool, futuristic look. Or maybe he's the cutesy Bomberman of old. Which Bomberman form can defeat Luigi, or is it all in vain?
(1)KIRBY vs. (8)GANONDORF - Round 1 saw Kirby barely get by the suprising Q*Bert assault. Ganondorf also barely beat out Tifa in his first round match-up. Both put sweat and tears into reaching the second round, so neither will give up that easy. Kirby has had no trouble swallowing his pride (as well as other things) in this tournament, now realizing his #1 seed doesn't guarantee him an easy road to the finals. Ganondorf is looking to pick up the first #1 upset of the tournament. Will it be a Dark day for Kirby, or is Ganondorf just a munchie?
(4)PIKACHU vs. (5)SOLID SNAKE - In the battle of the bad-asses, Solid Snake saw an easy victory over Dante. Pikachu had trouble handling the funk, but still managing to pick up a win. Now Snake faces his toughest opponent yet....a small, electric rat. Maybe this is a preview of an upcoming Super Smash Brothers showdown. Can Snake outfox the Pokemon with his cardboard box and girly magazines? Or is Pikachu immune to the stealth of Snake?
(6)DUKE NUKEM vs. (14)EARTHWORM JIM - Duke was out to kill his competition, and did so first round with ease. And Jim, the plucky worm in a super suit, pulled out his Upset-Gun and took down #3 seeded Zelda. Now Jim is looking to prove that his ammo and guns are much more badass than Duke's. However, Duke has bubble gum on his side. Will the earthworm score another upset win, or is Duke Nukem just too cool?
(2)YOSHI vs. (7)CHUN LI - Round 1, Double Dragon was no match for green dinosaur. Similarly, DK's other half was little trouble for the quick-kicking Chun Li. Yoshi made it all the way to the final 4 in the first tournament, and doesn't plan to let the street fighter stop him from making it that far again. Chun Li, just like Samus, is looking to prove that she deserves a spot in the tourney after her first round exit last time. Long tongue vs. long legs...who will be the winner?
