Comparing anything from Gears of War to HalfLife? What the fuck is wrong with these people?
Who the fuck is the tadpole and why is he winning over my Dr. Breen?
RAAM just popped up at the end inexplicably and without warning. I thought that was kind of stupid. Breen all the way.
tried to use a proxy to cast a second vote for breen, only to find that every proxy I tried had already voted for raam. 4chan is most certainly behind this one.
Breen is 413 votes behind. D:
Breen merely existing in the same universe as RAAM gibs him
Breen deserves the vote, he consantly appears in Half Life 2, may it be through random monitors or radio. It constantly reminds you of the oppression the rebels are facing. RAAM does fuck all other than provide a final boss battle.
What the hell is this. I'm sick of idiots taking polls like this and degenerating them into "X vs Y." That's not what this is supposed to be. This is supposed to be based in their own universes. Not pitted against each other in a fantasy arena. Yes. RAAM would beat Breen to a pulp. Yes. RAAM looks like a badass. Yes. RAAM carries an overpowered gun and can tear Breen into bits and pieces. No, that's not what this poll is about. The Penguin is a villain. The Joker is a villain. Emperor Palpatine is a villain. Revolver Ocelot is a villain. Atlas/Fontaine was a villain. Villains are villains because they deceive people. Either directly or indirectly. They take their own power and use it to bend the rules to their liking. The Penguin had money. The Joker had connections and was just outright crazy. Palpatine ruled the greatest force (hurr) to grace the galaxy. Revolver Ocelot and Fontaine hid behind alternate aliases to break trust and get what they wanted. RAAM was just a pawn. A useless, shitty pawn in a shitty game of chess. A piece. A simple, worthless piece that would be cast aside by the Locust Queen if she so pleased to do so. Doctor Breen was not merely a pawn. Doctor Breen was a king. Someone who embodied all of the qualities of a good villain and got taken off the board by his own pride. Just like every other villain to grace literature, movies and games. Breen was a true villain. Someone you could sympathize with yet at the same time despise. Someone you could trust, but at the same time feel suspicious of. Somebody that deceived and manipulated. RAAM, when compared to Breen (or any other villain for that matter) is not a villain. RAAM is just a boss. Boss != villain. [editline]04:50PM[/editline] /rant
Vote for breen now.
50% vs 50%, we need to push.
Just one hour ago Breen was almost 500 votes behind, how he's less than 50... just one last push! On a side note, does anybody know when it actually ends?
Counter-troll activated.
Such a close one here.
Breen has a small lead. Push!
[QUOTE=Zeddy;24810003]Breen has a small lead. Push![/QUOTE] 500 votes now.
Update: Dr. Breen is now beating RAAM by around 800 votes. I knew the internet still had some good left in it :h:
Breen needs to hold it together for a few more hours.
I still don't see how RAAM could even be close. You seem him like, what... twice in the entire game: once where he stabs the Asian dude and the final battle, right? Breen is this pervading, intimidating personality who doesn't just stab someone and is a villain because of that, he mocks, scorns, and outright condemns Gordon Freeman. RAAM is fighting a war with bullets and weapons like any other boss in nearly any other game. Breen is fighting an ideal with manipulation and intimidation. How many villains do that?
49.7% vs 50.3%. Damn this is gonna be close.

These little kids don't understand the complexity or real villain-ness of Breen. I mean what do you think would appeal more to a little kid, some dictator or a reptile brutal bastard. Try showing this video to a 12 year old kid: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BOlYvRaaP8&feature=related[/media] They don't fucking understand this. They'd rather see a Brutal Reptile thing rip apart someone than some human betraying and deceiving the entire human race.
Gamespot has more GoW fanboys than Valve. RAAM is also from a newer, and really successful game. Epic games forums and 4chan were voting for him. Honestly, even if Breen loses, keeping up against that damn army of 12 year olds is something amazing
Going to have to go with Dr.Breen on this one.
