Master Moltar 05/02/17 10:45:11 PM #46:	Wildcard Round: – 1978 vs. 2005 Moltar’s Analysis day two and we’re already at the two sentence write-ups aww yeah While 2005 doesn’t match up to 2006 on paper, it’s still a pretty solid year with Shadow of the Colossus and RE4 at the helm. Just like in the previous match, while 1978 has some very iconic games, it doesn’t hold a candle to the 2005 games that people care about. Moltar’s Bracket: 2005 Moltar’s Prediction: 2005 - 82% transience’s Analysis 1978? Really? This might be the blowout of the contest. 2005 is unique in that it lacks a strong Nintendo or Square game but we're up against Space Invaders here. I don't even need to write any more. transience's prediction: 2005 with 89.44% Leonhart’s Analysis 1978’s claim to fame is Space Invaders, a game I have fond memories of. When I was a kid, my dentist had a Space Invaders arcade cabinet in the waiting room, and he had it set up so you could lift the lid and give yourself as many credits as you wanted. It was a pretty sweet deal, and I put a good bit of time into it over the years, although I never really got the hang of it. Unfortunately, it hasn’t done well in its scant poll history. It finished dead last in a match against Tetris, DK, and Punch-Out!! However, it did beat out the original Sonic the Hedgehog in a “Which of this year’s inductees into the World Video Game Hall of Fame is most deserving?” poll, so that’s…something, I guess! 2005 is probably one of the weaker post-90s years. The final GOTY poll featured Mario Kart DS, for cryin’ out loud! I questioned 2006’s inclusion into the Wild Card round, but 2005 is a totally fair placement. RE4 seemed to have dropped off a little bit in the Games Contest. God of War (the other finalist in that GOTY poll) has probably fallen off, too. The two big movers since then are the original Ace Attorney and Shadow of the Colossus, which have each come a long way over the years. I’d have more confidence in them helping 2005 win multiple matches than anything else, honestly. That being said, it’ll win this match easily. It might be weak compared to its contemporaries, but it’ll kill anything from before the time when most of this site was born.
