Not many games can look good in scoring 42% in a match, but The Legend of Dragoon looked good here. Once it won its vote-in poll, people questioned its authenticity. It came out here and proved how legit it was, even though it was never really a match. I'm not sure why people have a hard time believing in Dragoon when it was marketed as an FF killer and we're on a site that caters to RPG fans and gamers filled with nostalgia.
Despite this, Uncharted 2 didn't come off looking so bad unless you were one of the people not believing in Dragoon. Uncharted was favored to win 3 matches in this contest going in, and this match did nothing to ruin this expectation. It ended up being a fairly boring match percentage-wise, as it got stabilized quickly and stayed in the 57-43 range most of the way. Uncharted went down a little overnight and in the morning, suggesting it's a night game, but nothing happened here that would have suggested Uncharted was in any major trouble. It was Halo winning twice that screwed it, not its own strength.
