So FFXII is going to end up like FFIX, eh? Getting killed by being released at the beginning of the new system on the old system.

Will FFXII or KH2 even be out by then...

Kingdom Hearts II will most certainly be out by then. Nomura's trying to get a simultaneous release with KHII so that it hits American and Japanese markets around the holiday's.

Final Fantasy XII might, but I would seriously doubt it at this point. If Sony sticks to its release of the PS3 in Spring 2006, then I would say that it would be out after the PS3. But I have heard things that it's getting pushed back.

Midna is going to crush everyone in 2k6. She wears Majora's Mask, has a cel-shaded hand coming out of her head, and rides a wolf/Link. What could be cooler than that?

Huh? WDF reduces his 2k2 strength. That would mean that his drop was far smaller, perhaps nonexistent.

You said that the WDF that you mentioned previously happened to try to prevent an all FF VII final, not an all Nintendo final.

All FF VII final happened in 2k3, not in 2k2.

Anyway, a WDF in 2k2 can never be confirmed nor disproved, since noone in MM's division ever came back.

You don't actually think those are graphics that would occur during the real game, do you? Those are obviously FMV.

No, I said that MM overperformed WDF-style. In 2k2, Sephy overperformed to prevent an all-Nintendo final. In 2k3, MM overperformed to prevent an all-FFVII final. Same reason, different games.

You don't actually think those are graphics that would occur during the real game, do you? Those are obviously FMV.

Why wouldn't they? I thought that they were pretty poor, especially Cloud's Buster Sword, considering that it's supposed to be for the PS3.

Because Sony hasn't ever told the truth about what is in game quality and what is FMV quality? I have no reason to trust them now.

It is definetly stats related. Whether or not FFVII remake looks kickass decides the % that Cloud and co. will increase in strength. And same for Wolf Link.

The PlayStation 3 can pump out far better graphics than was even present in those shots of Final Fantasy VII. Those were far from the most impressive shots of the system, but I'd be statisfied with that alone, since it's such a leap from the PSX graphics.

Either way, I don't buy WDF, nor an MM overperformance in 2k3.

Seph defeated MM by much more in 2k3 than he did in 2k2.
And so far all signs point to Seph's match against MM in 2k2 is legitimate.

If that was still an overperformance by MM, how much worse would MM's defeat become had the match been legitimate?

Alright Diablo, you might have owned in the Spring Contest, but this is the big league now.

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=1997 – Kefka/Mithos
http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2015 – Kefka/Diablo

More Spring Contest polls! Yay! I less than 3 recent polls that make my analyzing job so much easier. As you can see in the polls, Mithos scored over 36% on Kefka. Kefka then went on to lose to Diablo with nearly 46%. So, Diablo > Kefka > Mithos.

“But Moltar!” You scream, “What does that have to do with Kratos?” Mithos and Kratos are from the same game. Mithos is the villain, while Kratos…uh….yeah. All logic points to Kratos being stronger than Mithos, but strong enough to take out Diablo? I’m not sure.

Diablo would get around 66% on Mithos using the stats. If you like 2004 numbers, Diablo is about 8.5% higher than Mithos. That’s pretty of room for Kratos to make up, but he can do it. Unfortunately for him though, I see Lloyd ranking right around Knuckles (just over Spring Diablo). But hey, when Lloyd/Wesker rolls around, I’ll have even more to say about this, since we have so much info about the relationships between Mithos, Kefka, Wesker and Diablo. For now, I’ll just say that Diablo will win.

Remember when I said I’d have more to say after Lloyd/Wesker rolls around? I do. Lloyd won’t be ranking anywhere around Knuckles, because Knuckles is a winner, while Lloyd can only get 55% on Wesker. That puts Lloyd way below Kefka, Mithos, and most importantly, Diablo. Kratos is going to need to hope that the ToS fans prefer him a lot more than Lloyd, because this could be ugly.

Moltar’s Bracket Says: Diablo will win.

Moltar’s Prediction is: Kratos: 40% - Diablo: 60%



Ulti’s Analysis

(Special note from Ulti: due to me having to take care of a bunch of wedding stuff, my analyses are going to be very lax and short until the end of August, possibly even later. Sorry in advance.)

Given Lloyd's bombing against Wesker, I doubt Kratos has a chance in this even if he is stronger than Lloyd is. The board just overestimated TOS, I suppose.

Prediction: Diablo with 58.88%



Soul’s Analysis

Kratos Aurion is from Tales of Symphonia, an RPG for the Gamecube. Diablo is from the Diablo series on the PC.

This match looks somewhat tough on paper. But, it actually isn't. Basically, Diablo would beat Wesker with around 65%+ (If Kefka's pic had anything to do with his win over Wesker). Lloyd, the main hero from ToS, only got 54% on him. Kratos would be weaker or on par with Lloyd. Since Diablo could beat Lloyd, he's going to beat Kratos.

Diablo 2 also got a new patch out recently, so expect a boost from him. He also his kickass picture. Diablo is going to win.

My prediction: Diablo wins with 68.56% of the vote. Not even death can save you from me! - Diablo.

Diablo with 54.67%
From: Master Moltar | Posted: 8/12/2005 6:15:27 PM | Message Detail
Inviso’s Analysis

Ah, the badass of Tales of Symphonia is here. That’s like being a little kid at Neverland Ranch. It just doesn’t belong there. Kratos is from ToS, which again, is a cult RPG that managed to get two characters in based solely on the fact that it’s new, it’s on the Gamecube, and Board 8 loves it. His opponent is Diablo, who made final 4 of the spring villains contest, after triumphing over Kefka. The best way to explain how this match is going to go is by using that contest as an example. Kefka beat Mithos, the ToS villain, he may not have been able to double Mithos, but he still got about 10% higher (that is…they’re both about 10% away from the 50% mark). Diablo then went on to beat Kefka. Now, Kratos would have to be able to make up those 10% in order to beat Diablo, and that’s something I just don’t think he could do, since Kratos IS still cult. The match will be closer than Kefka vs. Mithos, but Diablo will still win.

My Bracket: Diablo
My Vote: Diablo
My Prediction: Diablo with 56.52%



Tnote’s Analysis

Diablo handled Kefka, who broke 60% on the Tales of Symphonia villain, a villain who has an actual personality and character, unlike Lavos or Sin. Kratos would be very hard pressed to be enough ahead of his game’s villain to pull in more votes than the Lord of Terror. If you put any worth into the Lloyd/Wesker match, in relation to the Kefka/Wesker match (which I personally do not), there is not a scenario in the world that would give Kratos a prayer of upending Diablo. Angel Kefka obliterated Wesker far more than Clown Kefka would have, however there is not enough contest strength in Wesker to lead me to believe Lloyd is strong enough to give Kratos a shot at Diablo. Yeah, try comprehending that.

Pick: Diablo with 55.83%



Vlado’s Analysis

Well, especially after Lloyd's match, I doubt there are many who are still not sure about the winner here. One can be absolutely sure that Lloyd is stronger than Kratos, as the main character of his game, unless they have a Tidus-Auron relationship stats-wise, and even Tidus and Auron are quite close lately, though Auron is and will surely always stay the more popular one. Well, as we saw, Lloyd is just a bit stronger than Wesker, and Kratos will be below Lloyd's level. That tells me that Kratos would be around Wesker's level, however, the stats we have on Wesker so far are flawed, due to his unrealistic loss to Kefka in the spring.

So, I can only guess what Kratos' level will really be, but I can sure as hell say that he's not coming anywhere close to beating Diablo. Sure, Blizzard took a huge hit when Kerrigan got obliterated by Vincent, but, seriously, who didn't see that coming? Sure, I didn't expect such a huge margin, but I did expect Vincent to win with ease. Simply because Kerrigan is not anywhere near as popular as her game, or even Diablo.

He, however, proved that he's a force to be reckoned with in the spring. He won three matches, against Ridley, M. Bison and Kefka, all three being weak, but still not fodder opponents. He then lost to Ganondorf, but avoided getting doubled, and proved that it wasn't just the weakness of his opponents so far that got him to the semis. While he'll stand absolutely no chance against Sonic, I believe he'll still be around his level from the spring - more than enough to beat Kratos.

Predicted percentage: Diablo with 62.15%.

Summer Contest Score: 22/24
Today's Pick: Sonic
From: Draco1214 | Posted: 8/12/2005 6:23:25 PM | Message Detail
This has probably been brought up already, but Squall name was misspelled on the contest stats.

Round 1 Matches to look forward to:

1) Tifa vs. Vyse (to see if she can give Sonic a good fight)
2) Gordon vs. Leon (to see if Leon can be a high-end midcarder like I think he will be)
3) Luigi vs. KOS-MOS (I think Luigi will struggle)
4) Ocelot vs. Pac-Man (This WILL be close)

Well, Freeman/Leon will be fun, and Ocelot/Pac-Man should be good as well.

Maybe. I just wanna see Lloyd/Zero. Because Wesker's got some wierdass stats, and I wanna see Lloyd's performance against someone with, ya know, stats that don't really confuse people.

Seriously is there anyone who doesnt enjoy watching Gordon Freeman lose just a little bit?

Especially when its against Mr. Kennedy.


I will thoroughly enjoy it if Leon can triple Freeman or more, as much as I doubt that it will happen.

Freeman is a joke, and I hope an embarrassing blow-out will keep him out of the contest for good.

And for the record, Aeris is expected to get almost 71% against Vyse, if Tifa can beat that, then she's stronger than Aeris.

Tifa/Vyse and Leon/GF will be interesting just to see how the newbies are.

Both with 70%+! <3

I can't believe so many have Diablo winning with more than 57%. I wouldn't take Ridley over Kratos, not by a long shot. Then again, these are mostly the same people who had Ridley beating Diablo last contest...

Why? Freeman and CATS should never leave the contest.

Hell, they ARE the contest to a certain degree.

We are now using data from the same year that says Magus = Sonic.

I never stated he was, just some people assumed he was. But I can't say much more without giving away my little write-up thingie.

But enough of this. It doesn't matter, and is decidedly NOT stats related.


Who gives a crap? We don't need a friggen police force to yell at people over every little post.

On a related note, let's take a small vote over something. "Contest Stats, Discussion, and Social - Part [..]"; would this be a good new name given the way this topic currently works, or should we stick with the current one?
