Metroid is the one series I'd have breaking the 'Noble Nine related games' thing. With RE or SF beating it. --- Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace. These are codes of behavior. |

Seriously, Mario cracking 45% just *feels* more realistic the more I look at that picture. It's just so...biased. --- Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace. These are codes of behavior. |

If Final Fantasy can beat Mario with more than 60% of the vote with that pic, Zelda is finished. --- The greatest torture in the world for most people is to think |

Well, after the first two Mario/Cronos, a few slips of the tongue
("though I don't give it a snowball's chance against Mario"), and some
of the most one-sided match pictures in history, does anyone not think
Ceej is a total Mario fanboy now? --- Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace. These are codes of behavior. |

So... a generic character and a chick who most of the fanbase probably hasn't seen yet? ... Please, Mario, this is your chance.

It's just so...biased. I had to deal with RE vs SF. This FF pic isn't that bad. |

I had to deal with RE vs SF. This FF pic isn't that bad. What the hell is wrong with you? Do you think I'm complaining or something? I consider SMB the best series of all time. And what is this "I had" business? I had RE > SF and preferred it as well. And SF did much better than most expected on it, which means the picture could have had some effect.

hmm... am I the only one who thinks these "old/new" pictures
essentially give the advantage to, well, the series with more history?
Final Fantasy might be classic to some fans, but a lot of fans know it
from 1997 and on. Mario wins that picture... not that it matters since
it's friggin' Mario vs. Final Fantasy, but damn. if he really wanted to do old/new he'd use a picture of friggin' Waluigi. --- xyzzy I lost a sig bet to War13104. Yes, the same guy who had Kefka over Crono. FOR THE HORDE! |

Look at the picture rules, tranny. Waluigi doesn't count, as he's a Mario Party/Mario Sports exclusive character. --- Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace. These are codes of behavior. |

I'm well aware. that doesn't stop me from wanting Waluigi in the picture! --- xyzzy I lost a sig bet to War13104. Yes, the same guy who had Kefka over Crono. FOR THE HORDE! |

But I don't know where the rest of your post came from... I wasn't telling you to shut up and quit complaining. Well apologies if you took offense to my post. |

Well, it looks like MGS will manage to reach and keep at above 28%. Until the day arrives, at least. --- Warden: Talk! What is SeeD all about!? Squall: ...Flower. |

If Mario can't break 44% with a pic like that, my sig deserves to be creativename's. ~*ST*~ --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best. Game. Ever." Contest Now Playing: Resident Evil 4, KH:COM (Sora), Larussa 92 (NYY) |

essentially give the advantage to, well, the series with more history? It gives the advantage to series that focus on one character. Final Fantasy has plenty of history, and that's actually hurting it in this picture. Mario just has two pictures of Mario - it doesn't matter if you played his old games or not, because he looks the same. If Ceej wanted to have a face of the Final Fantasy series, he should have just put up a picture of Uematsu. That would have been awesome. --- Nominate Aeris for SC2k6 |

If Ceej doesn't put Cloud or Sephiroth in the finals pic, he flat out WANTS Zelda to win. --- Everything's 10X better with a RKO and Orton pose. ~ Donkey111 |

Cloud and Sephy won't be avoiding appearances in the FF pictures, but I
don't think Ceej is going to put them in ALL of the pictures, or even a
majority (seeing as how multiple pictures are almost a given). --- Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace. These are codes of behavior. |

It gives the advantage to series that focus on one character. Final
Fantasy has plenty of history, and that's actually hurting it in this
picture. Mario just has two pictures of Mario - it doesn't matter if
you played his old games or not, because he looks the same. Exactly. And this makes tomorrow's match pic so horribly biased. He should've done something like Leonhart suggested: FFT Cloud -- AC Cloud. Seriously, Ashe? As if Vaan wasn't enough. The game has't even been released outside of Japan yet for crying out loud. --- Sp2k6: 43/48. LoZ VS. MG Tomorrow: SMB VS. FF |
