The Boss could not have gotten a better picture. If Celes wins, then we
MGS fans will have no built-in Ocelot Clause-esque excuses. ~*ST*~ --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best. Game. Ever." Contest Now Playing: Disgaea 2, KH:COM (Sora), FE8, Castlevania: LoI |

You know, something I noticed a long time ago but never thought to
mention, is that the link in the first post to the Top 100 games
doesn't go there anymore. TuRtLe ~~~ Turtle on his laptop | Contest analysis: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=30498383 |

The Boss's picture is amazing because it's her 3D model straight from MGS3 instead of that crappy melting artwork. --- Character Battle V Score - 4/4 points Current Prediction - Tifa Lockhart vs. Ivy Valentine |

It's also good, because it's recognizable to anyone who played MGS3. --- Character Battle V Score - 4/4 points Current Prediction - Tifa Lockhart vs. Ivy Valentine |

If someone's played MGS3, then the picture really shouldn't be a factor. --- http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/contest/contest_nominate.php Please nominate K. K. Slider (Animal Crossing) (Male) and Kazooie (Banjo-Kazooie) (Female) |

With a name as generic as The Boss...yeah. --- Character Battle V Score - 4/4 points Current Prediction - Tifa Lockhart vs. Ivy Valentine |

Celes picture isin't that bad. It's the best a FF6 character has gotten
besides Kefka's sprite. The Boss did get an amazing pic though. I can't
believe this is the one time Ceej doesn't screw MGS in the pic factor. --- Demyx > Axel Z1mZum owned me in the Guru Contest with his mad skills! |

Honestly, we know both of these characters are going to be fodder, so
it's all about who has more casual appeal. The Boss definitely has it
with that pic. --- Character Battle V Score - 4/4 points Current Prediction - Tifa Lockhart vs. Ivy Valentine |

I called that match pic almost to the letter yesterday when I wrote my Crew analysis for the match. ~*ST*~ --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best. Game. Ever." Contest Now Playing: Disgaea 2, KH:COM (Sora), FE8, Castlevania: LoI |

The Boss definitely has it with that pic. Unattractive women have casual appeal? --- http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/contest/contest_nominate.php Please nominate K. K. Slider (Animal Crossing) (Male) and Kazooie (Banjo-Kazooie) (Female) |

A woman does not necessarily have to be attractive to gain the pic
advantage over Celes (really, let's be honest, Celes looks like ass in
that pic). The Boss just looks...cool, I guess. Definitely able to rake
in the casual votes. --- Character Battle V Score - 4/4 points Current Prediction - Tifa Lockhart vs. Ivy Valentine |

Unattractive women have casual appeal? Neither of them are really attractive. --- ...a lone figure shining in the toxic shadows. She comes dressed for war, and her wrath is terrible. |

The Boss looks cool because of the sneaking suit, the glare, and the big knife. --- "...And then they made me their chief." - Captain Jack Sparrow |

ha. anyway, I think Celes has more casual appeal. having never played MGS3, The Boss does absolutely nothing for me. --- iddqd "MY SLEEPING PATTERNS ARE SHOT THANKS TO YOU AND YOUR FANFICTION" -windmage |

I agree with KH in that this is a test of MGS3's popularity. I think Boss will take it with ease. --- Character Battle V Score - 4/4 points Current Prediction - Tifa Lockhart vs. Ivy Valentine |

Funny stuff. The reason The Boss doesn't do anything for you is because you haven't played MGS3. She's such a great character. --- Let's welcome Chaos. 3/4 Next picks- Tifa > Ivy and Celes > The Boss |

Nice. His username couldn't be more wrong, either. >_> Something bordering on a decent suicide for once yay Anyway.
