Samus needed to boost 3.5% on BL since 2k4. In there is a year where
Mario jumped 6%. Samus boosting half as much as Mario did isn't that
impossible to believe. ... Time to stop talking to you --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |

So...Snake can boost to insane levels (even just based on constant
Sonic) from a goddamn trailer, but Samus isn't allowed to go up from
the second-biggest general boost in contest history? --- ~War~ The Cream of Transexual Ex Girlfriend Fanboyism ~War~ |

True, Mewtwo is a bit unpredictable, he certainly was my fave in Melee
and was dissapointed that Lucario took his place in Brawl. But i think
he's on the same lvl as pikachu in contest power as he out PSI-ed Ness. --- BC: 0774-7368-9787 name: EDS "Casual player" so dont count me in for no item matches. |

KH, I said from 2k4. 2k4 Samus was 42.36. 2k6 Samus is 45.85. 2k5 Samus
was picked by just placing her halfway between Mario and Crono. Even
then, it's still nowhere close to eight points on BL. --- ~War~ The Cream of Transexual Ex Girlfriend Fanboyism ~War~ |

No, Samus isn't at BL levels, but I find it hard to believe that Yoshi
hurt her that much more than Megaman the previous round. I don't think
Samus would break 60% on MM one on one. Call it SFF, Cloud messing up
the results, whatever.... Nintendo and especially Yoshi have been dropping fast since the power hour ended, and Team Square is now at 56.85%. --- Crono's quest to kick L-Block out of this contest: Round 3: Crono vs. L-Block vs. Pikachu vs. Alucard |

Samus was picked by just placing her halfway between Mario and Crono.
Even then, it's still nowhere close to eight points on BL. This is so much not even an argument I don't even know where to start maybe I'll do this instead since MM is supposed to be constant from 2k5 and all Sephiroth (2005c) VS Mega Man (2005c) Sephiroth has a strength of 49.16. Mega Man has a strength of 38.79. Sephiroth wins with 60.55% of the vote! A win of 23,837 with 113,003 total votes cast.

Turtle, Turtle, Turtle...Mega Man over Snake? Just how dense can you
be? MM alolowed Sora to break 46% on him in 2006. He couldn't beat
Sprite Samus last year despite Yoshi being in the poll, and in the next
round he got blasted so badly that he ended up closer to Ryu than
Samus. Fast forward to 2008. He lets Nero
break 24% on him in round 1, and allowed Tidus to improve on him in
round 2, despite the decline Tidus seems to be on. How is that

And you're forgetting a key component in that Cloud/Samus/MM match:
Ryu. If Dante/Leon/Amaastaseraseru can SFF eachother, why not Mega Man
and Ryu? We don't even know if they SFF'd each other or not -- there is a reasonable argument for Pikachu's sprite being responsible for his blow-out that round, plus Dante/Leon are far more closely related than Mega/Ryu. On top of that, you have a real problem in refusing to acknowledge Yoshi's presence in their first match-up. --- NRT winners: Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow, Star Fox 64, Donkey Kong Country 2 Remember these games! |

I think Dante isn't a good protagonist for a horror series...i mean,his
badassery sort of overshadows any sort of horror you can come up
with...mainly in a game..when playing as someone like dante,you'll
probably get the feeling "why would i be scared if I was this dude?" i mean,put Dante as the main character of Dead Space and suddenly the game isn't scary anymore >_> |
red sox 777 | Posted 10/29/2008 10:27:07 PM | message detail |
And for the record, I'm not saying MM 2006 = MM 2005, just that he
actually was in the same area as Crono/Sonic (would have lost narrowly
to either of them that year) and not substantially below them as he
looked. I'd take him over Sonic now because Sonic has looked horrible
the last 2 years. --- Crono's quest to kick L-Block out of this contest: Round 3: Crono vs. L-Block vs. Pikachu vs. Alucard |

Looks like there was no Vivi rally in the end there. >_> And wow at Fox having 19% here. He's holding up better than I thought. Anyone think Sora may actually move on to round 4? Squall's probably gonna be affected by Cloud a whole lot more than him, and Mewtwo could end up being weaker than we thought. --- http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u205/MapleMasta/IkeClimbers2.jpg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDaGWrPcjb8 |

that this contest has done to me. I wonder just how much stronger than Riku Sora is. I probably shouldn't let this match get my hopes up for Dante > Riku. >_> --- Attention, all yoctograms! (It's x2) DIE! |

And KH, in case you just misread what I was saying, I was saying Samus
beat Mega Man in their first meeting because she was significantly
above Mega Man, so Yoshi couldn't pull her down far enough to lose.

"Devil May Cry began its development life as a Resident Evil 4 title
for PS2, after the completion of Resident Evil 2, under the direction
of Hideki Kamiya and "Team Little Devil".[18] Early research and
development work included a trip to Spain, to examine various castles
as a basis for the game's environments. However, in prototype status,
the game proved to be a radical departure from the established Resident
Evil formula and the survival horror genre in general. Rather than
abandon the project entirely, the premise was changed and the game
eventually became Devil May Cry.[19]" --- http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v410/RyanSaotome/rydia.gif http://card.mygamercard.net/aero/Albion+Hero.png |

Even if you wanted to go that route, 55-45 illustrates the point quite
nicely. The fact that he had to fight tooth and nail to dispatch Vivi
is further proof - Zero has lost a step since 2005. Several, actually.
The idea that Mega Man has been somehow immune from this is wishful
thinking. --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |
