Sully is a no brainer, such a loveable guy who has been with through the thick & thin
Yeah, Sully is probably the only shoe-in for this section.
If Sully was matched against any other character on this list he'd still win.
..how is Cervantes losing?!?! I used to love him in SC... Elizabeth was a non-entity! Outrageous! Hissy fit! Thumps desk in anger!
Every one that I voted for is winning. I'm on such a streak. Going to put the lottery on now, kids.
I defo voted for Amaterasu and Sully, the others I didn't really care for/know (I voted Elizabeth and Tracer).
Cervantes is losing? This is not acceptable
@1ManAndHisDroid omg I know right hard belive !
Got my votes in!
No Croc, no vote. #waitingforweek3 #CrocvCloud #LegendofthePSUPCT #Kasplat
@AzlanWake13 Absolutely, irrevocably, indubitably true
Adol is winning somehow. Yes
Agreed with @1ManAndHisDroid @Eternallover21 and @gmxs. Wasn’t Elizabeth just someone you save/guide through the game? How would she beat a deadly pirate captain wielding soul-edge?
People in a UK site not voting for Tracer? Pfff, my faith is lost
Amaterasu, Tracer and Elizabeth get my votes so far. I've yet to play Uncharted or L.A. Noire in any capacity (franchise-wise, I've tried Golden Abyss briefly, but it had no sullivans in sight). so I can't take a pick there.
@nhSnork Sully is in Golden Abyss, but I think he shows up like half-way through.
@Mega-Gazz she can open up portals to other dimensions. Just lash captain Spain in one of them and done.
Does Chuck Norris ever appear in any games? If he does, this whole contest is over.
Cole Phelps should have been issued with a cyanide pill before entering the ring. Guy never stood a chance!
Having just got into Ys I hope Adol Christin pulls through. That one is tight!
Sully is a no-brainer though.
I like Cole as well but yeah, tough draw. I'm expecting Sully to go a long way in this tourney (making the quarter finals (shout out Bristol City) at least).
@Bliquid Whoops, forgot he was in the first one. For some reason I was convinced he was added to the second.
I'm just going to assume whoever didn't vote for Sully hit the wrong button by mistake.
@AzlanWake13 I agree — in many ways he is the soul of the Uncharted games.
Cervantes all the way. If he's not holding double soul edge he got a gun move. Definitely my top 3 fighter with taki and sophitia
@Bliquid Ahhh, that might be it, then. Bloody ninjas!
Amaterasu, Tracer, Sully, Cervantes. Of those only the latter is losing. Named after the greatest Spanish writer ever and he wont get past the first round!
Adol vs Tracer is a lot closer that I expected.
Victor Sullivan is the boss!
Damn, Adol just got into a hard fight right in the beginning...I hope he can win.
@Splat I didn't vote for Victor Sullivan but then again I am not a fan of the Uncharted series.
All the filth that didnt vote for cervantes get out.
Another vote for Cervantes here - can't believe he's losing so badly!
At least Amaterasu is deservedly winning.
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Its me and i have no remorse.
I want Adol to win against Tracer because the Ys franchise deserves some love here
Any shock results here?
@Cpt_Price @Flaming_Kaiser pffft
I went with Hayabusa, Adol (via coin flip), Sully, and Cervantes. Everyone but Sully is losing. Curse my luck.
I voted for the less favored EVERY time lol. Wonder if age has anything to do with the results. Im guessing us older kids are often choosing the chara ters from games past more often than not.
@get2sammyb Not really for me aside from Tracer not winning by a landslide.
Cervantes ftw the best pirate in Gaming. How is he losing to Elizabeth?
Oh, this is a neat thing.
@get2sammyb shock results? Cervantes losing to Elizabeth - INCONCEIVABLE.
Sully and Amaterasu are my favorite on this list, without a doubt.
@Mega-Gazz "I do not think it means what you think it means"
I agree. Maybe he would win if Soul Caliber came out with a good next gen game. (Hopefully)
@TheIronChimp I always thought of him more of an NES character lol.
@ShogunRok this is going to bug me, but where is that font from that you used for Ultimate Playstation Character Tournament?
@Tasuki You'll have to ask @TheRam, he had the honour of making it.
Where's the Write-In Vote Option? Gotta vote for Sophie and Nep Nep!!!!
It was so hard to choose between Adol and Tracer
I'd assume Elizabeth is winning over Cervantes purely because of Bioshock's name value and her image being strongly tied to its highest profile release (Infinite). Personally, I don't play fighting games and snobbishly assume that no characters in such a game can be interesting characters so I will always vote against them.
Maybe there should have been bracket regions based on game genre to reduce the bias there (might as well reduce bias if you have the opportunity rather than randomize)? That way fighting game fans don't have to take a loss for probably most of the first round matches. Could have been split (fighting, rpg, action, other)
