Pac Man vs Ocelot (2005 Characters)

Before this match, the end of Round One, the number of perfects left filled up the entire leaderboard. After this match, none remained.

This result still baffles me. Ocelot’s impressive showing in the Villain's Contest, the good performances of Metal Gear Solid characters that year… none of it mattered. Say what you will about pictures making a difference, but Ocelot’s blurry old-man-watercolors couldn’t stand up to Pac Man’s Technicolor charms. A narrow win put the Pac back on the map to give him his first win in three years, and easily his most impressive one of his contest career.

And it bears mentioning that only DNEA managed to call this one in the Oracle.
