Oh? I thought it was a slightly average boost. She went from being dead-even with Sonic to crushing him with over 57% of the vote. That's not 'slightly average'. --- *kills self Commit it to memory. |

Volvagia was awesome. I loved the latter part of the battle where
the rocks are falling down and you have to avoid them while still
hitting Volvagia. Call it a "glorified Whack-A-Mole" if you want, but
it's still damn good -- and much more enjoyable than some of the bosses
I can name in MM. Heh, I missed the usual MM - OoT debate... I know I'm late, but I still have to say my usual tidbit about Volvagia sucking. Why the hell is a fearsome mystical Goron-eating dragon playing Whack-A-Mole with Link???? Rocks falling down made the fight good for you? Meh, go play Ninja Gaiden for Xbox. THAT'S how you do a boss battle vs. a fearsome fire-breathing dragon! <_<; I mean, I know LoZ likes to have you use the dungeon's item against the boss, but that fight was corny as hell! I hated a lot of the bosses in OoT because they should have been much better (King Dodongo, Volvagia, Morpha, Twinrova (tooooo easy), GANON). --- Currently playing: Grand Theft Auto 3, Devil May Cry, Mega Man ZX |

WW = MM > OoT I enjoyed the atmospheres in WW and MM much more than Oot. The towns were awesome, I enjoyed termina field and the many islands in WW and the sidequests so much that they were pushed ahead of the perhaps more epic OoT. --- "If truly there is evil in this world it lurks in the hearts of man" -- Edward D.

Excellent, Ryu's been on the stall (lol) for a while. He has two hours

seems to deviate from that. I expect Sonic with 60% early. --- "that'll do, pig." |

Yeah, I knew Vincent was bad with it... just wondering how awesome
Sonic was, I thought he'd be pretty good. So basically hold on for the
first 10-15 minutes, and then watch Vincent take the lead at 2:30 AM?

Blast Division: Round 2 - Match 45 – (1)Sonic the Hedgehog vs. (5)Vincent Valentine Moltar’s Analysis Sonic Round 1 – 80.75% vs. CATS (19.25%) Sonic does slightly better on CATS than I expected. Vincent Round 1 – 52.59% vs. Ganondorf (47.41%) In the most debated match of Round 1, Vincent wins by a small margin. Noble Nine Breaker #2 steps up to the plate against Sonic. He said he dedicates this match to the people who bought and loved Dirge of Ceberus (all 3 of you) and Final Fantasy Advent Children (all 400 million of you). There’s been a lot of crazy upsets called in this Contest, but the most plausible in my opinion is Vincent over Sonic. Do I think it will happen? There’s a small chance, but I didn’t take Ganondorf over Sonic (Ganon should’ve won!!) Now this match, according to last year’s stats, goes to Sonic with 53.71%. Now, in order to make Ganondorf look very good (because in the end, that’s all that really matters), we’ll say 2005 Ganondorf = 2005 Vincent, and Vincent boosted from Advent Children and DoC to score the victory. That does make him a serious threat to Sonic, but only if he really is that high up. Now, this match won’t be a blowout, as it takes a lot to go 55-45 with Crono. Sonic is a step below that, but if Sonic does in fact put up Crono-like numbers on a potentially stronger Vincent, Crono better watch out. I’ll go with a middle of the road pick for Sonic. Moltar’s Bracket Says: Sonic will win. Moltar’s Prediction is: Sonic: 53% - Vincent: 47% Ulti’s Analysis Can we please stop with the Vincent > Sonic bandwagon? I know everyone is desperate to see the Noble Nine break, but this is just ridiculous. Ganon was an overrated fraud, and the Ganon/Tidus/Magus trio of 2003 have now all been exposed. Ganon not so much given that Zelda is always on the way up, but still. Vincent beating a warped Ganon isn't saying a whole lot. I seriously think 47% is the ABSOLUTE best Vincent can hope for. Prediction: Sonic with 55.55% HM’s Analysis Sonic the Hedgehog Previous Matches: Sonic the Hedgehog – 80.75% -- 87,757 CATS – 19.25% -- 20,925 Vincent Valentine Previous Matches: Vincent Valentine – 52.59% -- 67,321 Ganondorf – 47.41% -- 60,685 Well this is quite unfortunate that I have to analyze Sonic v. Vincent because I was convinced that Ganondorf was going to be here. Alas, I must go on. Sonic had a good showing against CATS last year by getting a whopping 80% on him and Vincent came out with a nice victory over Ganon despite the possibility of him being overrated and Ganon being underrated. There hasn’t been too much debate on this match, but it is definitely one that many people are keeping their eye on. Vincent certainly has the potential to be the first character to ever upset a Noble Nine character. Within the past year, he’s had the benefit of Dirge of Cerberus (which has sold 300,000 copies as of October 1st) and the release of Advent Children (which has exceeded 1.5 million in America). It’s unclear on how much those have helped him, but one would have to imagine that he’ll at least get a nice boost from it. |
| Master Moltar | Posted 10/25/2006 7:59:01 PM | message detail |
| Right now, this match is projected to go to Sonic
with 53.79%. It certainly doesn’t really sound like a match that would
have seen much upset potential in 2005, but with Vincent’s newly
acquired items, he could possibly make up the difference and end up
being that one character to do the unthinkable. Personally, I’m
actually not
expecting Vincent to pull out a victory here. Perhaps it’s just hard to
imagine Vincent doing it without something like, say, Twilight Princess
in his corner. I do think, though, that he’s going to get very close.
Make no mistake – Vincent could very well upset here and shock
everyone, but I’m just not seeing it happen this year. I’m rooting for Vincent all the way in this match because it makes Ganon look better (and I like him more than Sonic), so if he pulls out a win, more power to him. But I’ll take the conservative route for a change! Aitch Emm’s Bracket: Sonic the Hedgehog Aitch Emm’s Prediction: Sonic the Hedgehog – 51% ; Vincent Valentine – 49% Aitch Emm’s Vote: Vincent Valentine Yoblazer’s Analysis It's 6:25 Pacific and the picture isn't up yet (I told myself I'd wait for it before writing this), so I better get started. Unless I need a few lessons on Character Battle history, this is the second most hyped "Noble 9 breaker" match, right after Snake/Bowser. Does it earn its place? I guess so, but let's delve just a smidgen further as to why. For almost two months, Ganondorf/Vincent was the most debated match of the contest. It was a battle between Nintendo/Square forces that each had a terrific 2005, and most agreed that it was a waste to put such a match in Round 1. Fortunately for us, the winner would go on to face Sonic, one of the Noble 9's weak links, and that made for a few very bold upset picks. Once the match actually started (or a couple of hours afterwards, I should say), the Ganondorf supporters were made to look like fools, as Vincent won easily. How easily? 52.59% easily. Sure, it isn't the beatdown of the century, but such an easy win really contrasted the big-fight atmosphere before the match, and it absolutely humiliated the Zelda villain. Now, let me get one thing straight: I don't think Ganondorf has declined, and I don't think he's anything more than possibly a teeny bit overrated from last year. The fact that Zelda looking like arguably the most impressive performer in the entire field disproves the first point, and Ganon's convincing win against Auron and ability to break 40% on Samus last year disproves the second. I think Ganondorf is very strong, yet Vincent still beat him with ease. What does that mean? It means that Vincent boosted. After Dante choked against Yoshi, there's no way I'd believe he'd ever give Ganondorf the kind of fight he's expected to through Vincent's 2005 performance, and this means that Vincent is simply stronger now than he was last year. Now, that's some very scary strength, and it's Top 10 potential for sure, but is it enough to beat Sonic? Personally, I don't think so. Vincent may be the third strongest FFVII character, but there's no way I'm taking any side character to beat a legend of Sonic's caliber after Tifa failed to crack 44% last year. You need more than impressive victories or wins over Ganondorf to beat Sonic (remember all the talk of Magus>Sonic? LOL!!!!). You need something... something special. Call it oomph. Call it pizzazz. Call it moxy. Whatever you call it, just realize that this goofy looking weirdo doesn't have it. Sonic will beat Vincent, and I'm willing to bet the final result won't warrant the hype this match has been getting. My prediction: Sonic the Hedgehog def. Vincent Valentine (53-47) |

Lopen’s Analysis Ah… remember when people were saying Ganondorf was going to beat Sonic here? I'm kinda confused that Vincent didn't get any hype to win this. Do I think he'll win? Well, no… but… he clearly deserved the hype more than Ganondorf, right? I give Vincent an off-shot to win this, but beyond that, there isn't really that much to talk about here. You either think Vincent got a good little boost from last year and can take Sonic, or you don't. It's pretty clear last year he wouldn't have had a chance. Way I see it, Sonic's got a number he should aim for: 55.38%. The magical Crono number! If he makes that, he's looking good to sweep that Crono fool clear off the bracket in a couple of rounds. If not? Well, I still give him a chance, you can't really trust these things through extrapolation anyway. Vincent could've boosted, whatever. But anyway, I'm telling you that's what the people are gonna be looking for. And Sonic might be the one to deliver on it. What he did to CATS, he looks like he's a contender to do it, for sure. Not that I'm one to call contest winners through fodder, of course. Might be the one to do it? I lied. This match won't answer anything about Crono/Sonic… ha ha ha ha! Lopen's prediction: Sonic with 55.38% KH’s Analysis lol x-stats history SONIC THE HEDGEHOG "Talk about a low-budget flight! No food or movies...I'm outta here! I like running better!" Summer 2002 Contest Extrapolated Strength --- 5th place [41.05%] Summer 2003 Contest Extrapolated Strength --- 10th place [34.92%] Summer 2004 Contest Extrapolated Strength --- 8th place [33.56%] Summer 2005 Contest Extrapolated Strength --- 8th Place [35.28%] Sonic whips up on Hybrid CATS last round in impressive fashion, so much as to cause people to downplay the performance (no WAY is Sonic that strong, Hybrid must be nearly on par with Eggplant CATS!). In any case, he'll have a better chance to prove his strength here, in a match against what is potentially the toughest of all non-Nobles. VINCENT VALENTINE "I don't care what you are doing, so much as the idiotic way as you are doing it." Summer 2005 Contest Extrapolated Strength --- 11th Place [32.60%] Vincent beats Ganondorf in a relatively close but comfortable match last round, defying Zelda's invincibility for the first time in what seems what forever. Was it his strength or the -dorf's weakness? We get some answers to that today. Notable Releases Since Last Appearance Sonic the Hedgehog: N/A Vincent Valentine: Advent Children (Film), Dirge of Cerberus (PS2) Upcoming Releases Sonic the Hedgehog: Sonic the Hedgehog (PS3, X360), Sonic and the Secret Rings (WII) Vincent Valentine: N/A While this is a good match on paper, I have doubts that Vincent will even make a match out of it. This is just a stepping stone to Sonic/Crono in my mind, and Sonic will be trying to look as good as ever. If he struggles at all, he may as well concede the match. 52% or so on Ganondorf isn't that good. Karma Hunter's Vote: Sonic the Hedgehog. Though I would have voted Vincent if HM hadn't closed his account prematurely! Karma Hunter's Krazy Prediction: Sonic the Hedgehog with 54.28% A little over a percent under Crono's performance, but on a debatably stronger Vincent. Just to make the upcoming Sonic/Crono confrontation as ambiguous as possible. Upset Potential: 32% UPSET ALERT UPSET ALERT UPSET ALERT |

It's not like people haven't been talking up Ganondorf > Sonic since
the man's first year in the contests. In retrospect it was totally
bonkers, but G-dorf has grown quite nicely in these things...not enough
to outstrip Sonic, but he's close enough. If there is a Nintendo/Zelda
boost, it probably isn't enough for him to catch up -- but it's
certainly enough for someone who lays on 52%+ or so to do it! This means Vincent boosted much more from AC/DoC than I anticipated. I don't see it, but it could happen. In which case, a constant or declining Sonic (setting Hybrid CATS = Eggplant CATS means Sonic fell! perfect logic right hurr) gives Vincent a big chance at the upset. A lot of stretches, but Vincent's close enough to merit the debate. Upset Prediction: Vincent Valentine with 50.27% Guest’s Analysis - Mac Arrowny I'd like to start off by just mentioning the previous matches of both of these characters. Sonic impressed by getting 80.75% on Hybrid CATS, only 1.7% worse than what he's expected to get on CATS 2k3, and 5.7% better than what he's expected to get on CATS 2k5. Vincent, on the other hand, got 52.59% against Ganon, which is .14% less than he was expected to get in the 2k5 stats. However, this doesn't look as bad for Vinny V as it first seems. Tingle scored an impressive percentage on KH2 Sora (very impressive after Yoshi vs. Dante, less so after Sora vs. Gordon), Zelda has arguably been the most impressive character we've seen so far, and LoZ won the series contest. Does this imply an LoZ boost? Possibly yes, possibly no. I've always been a firm believer in 2k5 Ganon being underrated regardless, so VV definitely doesn't suffer from his performance on Ganon. Meanwhile, CATS's 2k5 performance was based on Master Chief, who now seems to have been woefully overrated in 2k5, and whose antivotes may have allowed CATS to overperform. CATS through MC2k3 would be expected to do about 3.5% worse on Sonic than he did last round, which leads me to believe that Sonic's performance is not indicative of a boost. Sonic doesn't have much reason to boost (Sonic Rush doesn't count, Super Princess Peach just surpassed it in sales), but Vincent has plenty of reasons to do so. One of the arguments about Vincent not getting a very large boost from Dirge of Cerberus is that it's such an awful game that there's no way Vincent would gain much from it. While at first glance this seems to make sense, it is in fact entirely irrelevant. We've seen plenty of characters receive games in recent years that have been well received and poorly received, and yet their boosts have been of an entirely different nature, size-wise. So far as I have been able to tell, the deciding factor in most of these cases has been how likable/cool/badass the character is in the new game, not the quality of the game itself. Devil May Cry 2 and Xenosaga 2 were received similarly, and yet Dante received a boost, while KOS-MOS seemingly dropped. Why? Because people liked Dante in DMC2, while they disliked KOS in XS2. What does this have to do with DoC? I've heard many people talk about how much the gameplay sucks, the plot sucks, the controls suck, etc...but I have never heard anyone complain about Vincent's role in the game. In fact, many people who've played the game have said that Vincent's more badass then ever, and that can't be a bad thing. If anything hampers DoC, it will be the game's poor sales, which were at 330,000 by the end of September. I expect them to reach at least 380,000 by the end of October, which is, surprise surprise, very close to the sales for DMC3 before SC2k5. Now, I'm not expecting him to boost 5% on BL just from DoC, but he's less than 3% away from Sonic to start with. Could DoC boost him 3%? |
| Master Moltar | Posted 10/25/2006 8:01:08 PM | message detail |
| Possibly, but unlikely. That's almost as much as
DMC2 boosted Dante. Vincent has an advantage in being the main
character whereas he was previously a secret character, but DoC was far
less popular and well-received. A 2.5% seems legit for DoC.That's not
enough to beat Sonic, but thankfully, Vincent also has Advent Children.
As of June, AC has managed to sell 1.3 million copies in America alone,
and has no doubt added to that amount since. This is an absolutely
amazing number for a DVD. In most cases, movies don't help out characters too much. RE:A didn't seem to do much for Jill, and Tomb Raider didn't seem to do much for Lara Croft after the opening weekend, though the Silent Hill movie is one of the few explanations for Silent Hill's oddly strong VC performance. What's the difference between AC and these others? Advent Children was seen mostly by gamers, while those other movies were made for the general public. Vincent is one of the coolest characters in the movie, and the one I'd expect do boost most after Cloud and Tifa (Sephiroth is debatable...). Despite AC being more important than any of those other movies, the boost he'll get from the movie is not large. Maybe a couple percent. Still, all of this combined is enough for Vincent to beat Sonic, and the beating could be even worse than the aforementioned information suggests. KH2 factor could bring about a sitewide Square shift. Square characters have looked pretty good this contest, when not being SFF'd. Sonic's boost in 2k5 could've been temporary, as there's really not much reason for Sonic to look better than ever before. Of course, he could also continue his trend of boosting since 2k3, which would be utterly baffling, but possible. This match definitely has the potential to go either way, but I think Vincent can pull out the win. It'll be sad to see the inferior character out of Vincent and Ganondorf making it out of the division, but at least we'll get to see Sonic go down, and finally have an end to the Noble Nine. Mac's Prediction: Vincent with 52.60% Crew Consensus: Sonic wins in a close match. Anywhere from the low to mid 50's sounds right. |

Match XLV: (1) Sonic the Hedgehog vs. (5) Vincent Valentine Previous Matches Sonic the Hedgehog Defeated CATS, 80.75% - 19.25% Vincent Valentine Defeated Ganondorf Dragmire, 52.59% - 47.41% Analysis: Last round Sonic showed that he’s a contender for the male championship by almost getting 81% on what the board called Hybrid CATS. Also I called my first board upset right since predicting Robotnik to take his 4-pack when Vincent beat Ganondorf. If I remembered correctly Ganondorf was unable to win an hour of voting and at his best time could only stall Vincent. This will be the last chance this year for the Noble 9 to be upset by a non-Noble 9 and even then I don’t think Vincent has the power to win. There has been some talk about other Noble 9 upsets, Bowser > Crono, Zelda > Samus and there’s some Sora > Mega Man, but really I don’t see any of those upsets happening without seeing Vincent winning. The Devil Division may have been overrated last year, but Vincent still has a few tricks up his sleeve. While I do agree that the Devil Division is overrated I also think Vincent is still at his 2k5 ranking. Since last year Vincent has had AC and while a movie doesn’t help a character long term I do believe that Vincent would get some kind of boost. Vincent was also the star of his own game and even though it was a complete flop and didn’t sell well Vincent did get some kind of a boost. Being the main character of a game will help anybody if they were a side character from another, just look at what FFX-2 did to Yuna (though I don’t expect Vincent to get that huge of a boost). While I do think Vincent has the best chance at breaking the Noble 9 I don’t really think Sonic will be in too much danger of losing. Maybe Vincent will keep it close during the first few hours of the poll, but once morning and the after school vote hit Sonic will just run away with the poll just like he did with Tifa. charmander6000’s Bracket: Sonic the Hedgehog over Vincent Valentine charmander6000’s Prediction: Sonic wins, 54.82% - 45.18% --- "I was trying to escape.

Sonic could win with 51% and potentially go on to win the male bracket.
Of course, that's not going to get anyone here calling for such a
thing, but we can't really say how much Vincent benefited from DoC/AC.

think. --- The Master Sword is the most sought-after blade in Hyrule. He who wields it carries with him the hope of the kingdom. |

Big Bob's completely biased and nonsensical analysis Alright, folks! It's time for another legend to smack-lay in a downward direction on another wimp! Sonic the Hedgehog has been around for 15 years now. He's the one that almost usurped Mario off the throne! That's what I call strength? And he's fighting some optional party member in an RPG. Sonic is so going to win this one. He got 80% on CATS in the first round. Vincent got 50 something on Ganondorf. The same Ganondorf who failed to outperform CATS in 2k4. That's weak. And what about the people Vincent beat last year? He didn't get 80% on Kerrigan, fodder of the worst kind. He didn't beat Dante too impressively, and Dante just got beat by a Dinosaur that was destroyed by Mega Man last year. And Squall got 60-40'd by Snake AFTER Kingdom Hearts II came out. Vincent's new game is unpopular, and Sonic's new game for the Wii looks like it will be among the best on the system. Bob's Prediction: Sonic with 70% --- Gordon Freeman finally won, but somehow, the universe survived... thus allowing me to tell said universe about how I was owned by NClark128. |

Auron and Sub-Zero look like a couple of old men scouting a park for open chess benches. XD --- "An intellectual is a man who takes more words than necessary to tell more than he knows." |

Vincent looks emo - but that doesn't hurt Sephiroth when he gets his emo pic. Kirby just looks fat. Crono/Bowser looks pretty good. Where did that Bowser picture come from and why hasn't it been used before? Auron/Sub-Zero feels like an attempt to make both as unrecognizable as possible. --- Mustache...and green... http://www.rit.edu/~zmb0386/Top100.pdf |

That actually looks like a Mario Party Bowser or something. --- - Why the hell did I bet against a character as deep, awesome and badass as Lara Croft, instead favouring a character from something as lame as HL2? Forgive me, XIII. |

I think Sonic and Crono are the big picture winners here. Kirby/Luigi reminds me of Yoshi/Pac-Man, and that makes me happy. =) --- The Little Mermaid 2-Disc Platinum Edition DVD Coming October 3, 2006 |
