89.2% already, and we haven't even seen the Zelda day vote kick in yet. Indeed, this is going to get very ugly. LoZ > FF BOOK IT! --- Moltar Status: Excited, the Contest is here at last! LoZ vs. Civilization - Bracket: LoZ - Vote: LoZ (0/0) |

I would totally vote Madden over Mario that time. And it takes a lot

Looking at this match, on the one hand it's comforting to see LoZ
completely dominate it's first match as expected, and not slip up as
someone who's picked LoZ to beat FF. On the other hand, I'm kind of
saddened as a civilization series fan to see such a good series get
thrashed so badly. If LoZ finishes this match with over 90% of the vote, I'd say that it's done more then enough to prove it's worth in the first round, even if it is facing absolute fodder. --- When dictatorship is a fact, revolution becomes a right. ~ Victor Hugo {WoT}~> Board 408 |

Heh, LoZ/Civilization is ahead of Link/Magus. Man, I'm lovin' these high vote totals. If this match breaks 100,000 with ease, imagine what LoZ/FF will be like.

Harvest Moon kicks ass. Well, at least the first three games did (SNES,
N64, and PSX games). It would make me very sad to see it lose to
Madden. I'm not sure who'd win, but I doubt either of them would get
more than 60% on the other. --- For the sake of simplicity, I'm going to refer to Gordon Freeman versus Tanner as Schrodinger's Match. -Phoenix Flattener |

Well this is impressive. Its hard to judge the series thing but I
expect Diablo series to be greater than Diablo himself. But still I say
Final Fantasy needs to get at least 70% and probably 75% to match this
