Hey guys, the bracket is up. Sorry if this info is old, but I did a topic search and found nothing.

*Extrapolated Standings*

Explanation of Extrapolated Standings:
http://sc2k5.com/drupal/node/11

Simple Explanation of Extrapolated Standings:
A = Strongest Character
B = Character Weaker than A
C = Character Weaker than B
To figure out a character's Xsts Percentage ---> [(CvB)(BvA)]/50 = CvA
To compare how C would do against B ---> [(CvA)/(BvA)]*50 = CvB
To figure out how B would do against A ---> [(CvA)/(CvB)]*50 = BvA

Not any closer than 60/40. Fire Emblem might not be that strong, but I'm thinking that Silent Hill will pretty much be fodder.

So... with all this (one-man lol) buzz about Star Ocean, what else in the contest could we see either Pokemon or Star Ocean beating? How would they fare against, say, Fire Emblem? Suikoden? Phantasy Star?

I think Star Ocean and Pokemon would probably beat all three. At the very least, they beat Suikoden and Phantasy Star. I suppose Fire Emblem would depend on how much the awareness has increased for the American auidence. Suikoden definitely fits the role of a "cult" RPG. I can't imagine Silent Hill beating any of the games mentioned either.

I love Star Ocean, but there's no way it'll break 37% on Pokemon. It's too cult (and yes I know SO2 and SO3 sold 1 million copies each).

I really don't see how that makes any sense at all, but I'm honestly taking a break from arguing this one for a while. >>


Personally, I can't see Castlevania being that strong.

I have to say that I agree more with what you're saying than anyone else. I mean, I love Castlevania and all, but I never really viewed it as a significant player in a contest format. Even combining the series into one, I have a hard time seeing it being overly strong. I've always figured Halo would win without a lot of trouble, but perhaps I'm underestimating what Castlevania can do.

You Board 8ers sure are getting me worried about GTA/Warcraft damnit

I'm really starting to hate Blizzard entries into the contests for this very reason. Well, not that I get worried about the matches with them, but I'm really sick of hearing "BATTLE NET AND RALLYING" for any of their franchises. The downplaying of GTA's popularity on this site in that other topic was downright sick. Heck, we just had a poll that showed some 80%+ that don't play World of Warcraft anymore or never have at all. StarCraft saw success, and it's entirely possible that SSBM was its only "cheated" win, and now every Blizzard franchise apparently has the ability to go nuts, which I don't buy at all. Personally, I only think rallying and such work when the series are at least somewhat close to each other to begin with, and GTA is far stronger than Warcraft I would think.

FastFalcon05 | Posted 6/9/2006 11:21:15 AM | message detail
I also consider the people trying to say Mario is going to beat Final Fantasy, as that just doesn't make any sense either.

It doesn't make sense considering past results, but this is an entirely different contest. We saw in enough cases games don't equal characters, series equalling neither of them could be true as well.

Now, I don't believe this will happen, but it is possible that perhaps some series get weaker when lumped together, ie FF7 is more distinguishable than just a simple Final Fantasy.

but MGS also has Subsistence, plus hype from MGS4, Portable Ops and (to a certain extent) SSBB.

KHII trumps all of those, and I"m totally not saying that just because I absolutely love the game.

here's my opinion on GTA/Warcraft:

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=1877
http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=1134

vs.

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2232
http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2233

if you think rallying can make up that much, go for it. I sure wouldn't want to be on the hook for that much of a difference though. heck, let's throw in The List while we're at it:

#11: Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - PS2
#27: Grand Theft Auto III - PS2
#35: Grand Theft Auto: Vice City - PS2

vs.

#39: World of Warcraft - PC
#60: Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos - PC

WOW would seem to benefit more from a system like this as well - if you're paying $15/month, chances are you really like the game. GTA is a "casual" game yet all three games ranked higher than WOW. add in that the PSP port is coming out this week and I can't see it being close unless some monster rallying occurs.

GTA/Warcraft is being overhyped severely due to "ZOMG TEH BLIZZARD VOTE RALLIES!!11!1@12!"

I haven't seen anything that would remotely suggest that GTA would lose this match. GTA's a powerhouse with the casuals, and rallying can only do so much.

I really would've liked to see it as the 3 seed in Metal Gear's division instead of wasted by SMB in Round 2.

GTA tends to choke, though when it comes to tight matches.

Vercetti and CJ are much weaker than the GTA franchise as a whole though. Vice City and San Andreas might be big, but the franchise also has GTA3 to back it up as well.

Vice City got within 5000 votes of SSBM, so I don't think it's fodder or anything. However what I wish to express is GTA doesn't have the fanatically insane fanbase of Warcraft. Heck, I could go furthur and say that WoW alone could push Warcraft over the edge seeing how big and organized their online presense is.

BOLD PREDICTION: WoW will cause Warcraft to get anti-voted, allowing GTA to break 60% in their match.

CJ lost to Ness, that should be evidence enough.

GTA doesn't need fanatics. It's got numbers and plenty of casuals who will vote it over most things. It doesn't come close to winning (or outright winning) GotY polls around here for nothing.

I love how I can leave all the SO/Pokemon debating to HM and feel like it's being represented fairly!

Also, the next person who calls Star Ocean "cult" is going to get a fork shoved into their eyeball. Believe what you want, but if you're going to call Star Ocean cult, you're just goddamn wrong.

I don't see either side breaking 55% in that match. It should be one of the better matches in the contest.

I'm not calling for a blowout by any means... it's just pissing me off when I see people saying "lol pokemon with 60 min."

If SO loses with 47% or more it will be a moral victory for me, much like Dante/Vincent was, and is it wins, I'm going to be riding HM and thrusting in all your faces. >_>

SO would do better if it wasn't cult! It doesn't even have Xenosaga to rely on, like Xenogears! lololololol

Well was the wait worth it?

madden gets in but GT doesn't?

DQ vs SSB?
MG vs Soul calibur?
we get a potential metal gear vs halo.
