It was decent when Ulti made this topic, not anymore though. I don't understand anybody who isn't thinking that Snake is at least the favourite to win this, if not a lock just yet. --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs9/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=22242738 Sign plz AC2K6 Score: 76/80 Today: Snake |

So let's see, either Sora is now at 35% on BL around 2005 Kirby and Squall...or MM has dropped a bit. And while MM definitely doesn't seem to be his 2005 self, this topic has gone a bit overboard with the anti-MM stuff. --- Moltar Status: Feeling good and hot-blooded.

I don't think Solid Snake could ever be considered the favourtie this year because: 1: Megaman has already won over him twice. 2: Megaman IS doing 10% worse on Sora than what Solid Snake did last year, but Solid Snake did 11% worse on Yoshi than what Megaman did last year. So we still can't tell who is stronger. 3: It's a toss up. --- Supporter of Megaman and Sonic |

I'm glad that "Sora couldn't have boosted that much" nonsense is over.
You guys shoulda known Gordon/Sora was a risky match to extrapolate
from, since -both- Sora and Gordon have been suspected to be non-linear
(Sora more in terms of facing fodder, though). On a side note, it looks like Sora will not only beat out Aeris in the x-stats, but Squall, too. :P --- Sign the Petition for more stats in the GameFAQs Contests here: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=30693799 |

| If Sora can keep this up, (although it looks like
Mega Man is fighting back, right as I start typing this) this is just
embarrassing for Mega Man. I would definitely consider taking Vincent
over Mega Man if they met up next year. I can't say I'm terribly surprised that Mega Man dropped suddenly though. His popularity on here always surprised me. He definitely has his fans, and I'm not trying to be mean, but Mega Man just plain hasn't been relevant to gaming in over ten years. It's a good thing the Virtual Console is coming up, since that'll probably bounce him back up, and it should help Crono remain constant if necessary. --- Z1mZum totally owned me in the July 2006 Guru Contest The Funky Chickens in Trivia XVIII |

2: Megaman IS doing 10% worse on Sora than what Solid Snake did last year, but Solid Snake did 11% worse on Yoshi than what Megaman did last year. So we still can't tell who is stronger.

He definitely has his fans, and I'm not trying to be mean, but Mega
Man just plain hasn't been relevant to gaming in over ten years. This doesn't explain Crono though. If anything I'd expect a character who was in a myriad of games, who is much closer to a "household name" than is Crono, and who still has tons of spin-off series with games coming out in them to do much, much better than a character who starred in only one game for the SNES. Crono is the biggest anomaly this contest will ever see. --- Upon having Rosie O'Donnell corner him in the forest, the pizza delivery man knew how a Goomba felt when Mario got a star. ~ SSJ3 Popo |

As we all know, Crono has DBZ going for him. A fair chunk of his power might come from it. Anyways, Sora's already over 45%? To think that Mega Man used to be equal with Sephiroth... --- By the time we localize the programs, kids don’t even know they’re from Japan any more. - 4Kids CEO Al Kahn |

I won't say Snake>Mega Man is a lock, but Mega Man has been
underperforming in all of his matches so far. Everyone was expecting
Sora to only get 40-42% on Mega Man. Even though it looks like Mega Man will most likely lose to Snake, i hope that Zero and Mega Man will regained their strength next year and be a monster again. I don't like the idea of Ganondorf or Vincent defeating Mega Man next year. Mega Man is a gaming icon and i respect him no matter what. Good luck, Mega Man. --- I am a Singaporean and I hope Snake will beat Megaman. |

I think this has surpassed Mega Man's 2003/2004 matches with Sephiroth

Solid Snake has every reason to be called the favorite now, except for
the fact that Mega Man's beat him twice both times they've faced
off...ahem. The match can go either way and don't let anybody tell you differently...but most factors are pointing at Solid Snake winning.
