40 votes this time. An increase in gain, but CV seems to be losing steam. --- Angsty_Lou: Everything has a sexual connotation if you just look long and hard enough. Theo72: U SED LONG AND HARD LOL |

The Xbox and Halo are popular outside of America? The original Xbox and Halo were less popular outside of America, but still a very big deal over there. Lots of more "casual" games rule Europe. --- "Building the future and keeping the past alive are one in the same thing." -- Solid Snake |

From KamikazePotato | Posted 7/8/2006 12:46:03 AM | #051 40 votes this time. An increase in gain, but CV seems to be losing steam. Last time it looked like it, CV flipped Halo on its back for MASSIVE DAMAGE. --- I do declare, old chap! Even a Doom score could not possibly justify the unwarranted combustion of kittens! |

Uh huh...yeah, listen guys, if you want some discussion...seeing
as how the Halo series should be more popular than Halo, and
Castlevania is beating Halo at the moment, while it's postulated that
SSBM will be the driving force behind SSB... ...how many of you guys would anticipate Castlevania going 50/50 with SSBM? Can we put the final nail in Starcraft's transitivity's coffin, yet? |

If Castlevania can win every update in this first hour, it's probably smooth sailing until about noon EST tomorrow. --- Mustache...and green... http://www.rit.edu/~zmb0386/RPGuy.jpg |

...how many of you guys would anticipate Castlevania going 50/50 with SSBM? Oh, I doubt that one, but it very well could be closer than when Sonic faces SSBM. *opened that can of worms again* --- Miss my Four-Pack Of Fun? Go here: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/gentopic.php?board=585007 |

Well put it this way... Would Castlevania do better on Final Fantasy then SSBM did on Final Fantasy 7? I don't think it's likely. |

Assuming CV gains 50 votes every update until 9AM, it would have about
a 7200 vote lead by then. I doubt CV's going to have that much momentum
going for that long, though. --- "Thank you, Mario. But our princess is in another castle." -Toad in Super Mario Bros. |

| Castlevania might suffer Something Fishy against Final Fantasy...yeah, I know the series is bigger than SotN, but it's a major part. |

Assuming CV gains 50 votes every update until 9AM, it would have about a 7200 vote lead by then. And Halo would still come back. >.> And silly HaRR. --- Moltar Status: #37 on the Leaderboard!! Castlevania vs. Halo - Bracket: Halo - Vote: Halo (6/6) |

Hopefully Halo wins this one. I am not a big fan of either game but I
figure more people would know of Halo than CV. I don't want to join the
12k(about half) people who just lost their perfect records from not
voting on Fire Emblem. lol --- Fighter: Me - Doken! BM: I taught him that one. ~8 - Bit Theatre |

Well, Final Fantasy is more than FFVII and on, you know. Final Fantasy has a few games on the SNES and one on the NES, too! --- SC2K6 Nominations: Squall, Roxas, Serge, Seifer, Laguna, The Prince of Persia, Nightmare, Sub-Zero, Captain Falcon, Raiden |

SotN did get #15 on the Top 100 last year. If Halo 2 had been on the
drop-down list, I highly doubt Halo would have got 9th place like it
did. --- "Thank you, Mario. But our princess is in another castle." -Toad in Super Mario Bros. |

| Still too early to call but I like what Castlevania is doing at the moment. Do you think the DS might have helped strengthen the series' popularity? |

I didn't know Alucard was a DBZ character! ... Do not compare lame DBZ characters to The Great Alucard!!!! I'll have you know that Alucard could blink and DBZ characters sould disappear.

From RPGuy96 | Posted 7/7/2006 9:42:14 PM | #038 How many casuals are really up and ready to vote at midnight? Have you noticed the votals? Much higher than the 3 AM start time, which means many more people are awake and voting. There are more people, but there are more... obscure, night vote people. >_> /// *Stares at FFVA game info with bloodshot eyes* Release date... Coming... |

And where would have ToS ended up if it was on the drop-down list? Sorry, I HAD to. ;) I know it got there because of the big board drive for it. --- I do declare, old chap! Even a Doom score could not possibly justify the unwarranted combustion of kittens! |

CV has about a 700 vote lead to Halo right now. I wonder how long that is going to last... --- Fighter: Me - Doken! BM: I taught him that one. ~8 - Bit Theatre |

BTW, Halo reached its peak against StarCraft at 6:30PM. So the day vote
lasts for about 8 and a half hours. Is it enough time to make up all
the votes CV's getting right now...? --- "Thank you, Mario. But our princess is in another castle." -Toad in Super Mario Bros. |

Man, every time when it looks like Halo's going to stall, Castlevania
turns right around and slams a big update down. I think Alucard's just
toying around with the Chief right now. --- SC2K6 Nominations: Squall, Roxas, Serge, Seifer, Laguna, The Prince of Persia, Nightmare, Sub-Zero, Captain Falcon, Raiden |
