Mario levels? I do think Crono would get closer to Mario than last time
this year, but that's mostly because of Mario Deboosting. Crono beat
Ryu about as badly as Megaman did in 2006......oh I get it now. --- Crono's quest to beat Link: Link vs. Crono vs. Mario vs. Samus |

Ryu did about as well as he was expected to, and Ammy impressed that
day. Dante/Leon may have looked like substantial LFF last year, but
Pikachu has sort of vindicated his performance there. He went from losing to Leon by 5% to beating him into the ground, along with the stronger Dante, just because he was against 3 Capcom characters. --- I want adventure in the great wide somewhere...

I wouldn't take Zelda over Mega Man, but Sonic looks primed to fall. If
he's so entrenched with Nintendo as to lose to Kirby in any format,
then I think Zelda would have a shot. She would have probably wrecked
him yesterday, and while 1v1 would indeed be a tougher challenge, I
think it's possible. I'd only dare pull the trigger against Sonic, though. So ^5 me or something! --- Yoblazer: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Actually I kind of forgot about X/Zelda/Kip. I won't bother trying to
argue the point, because it's not important to my point, and hell it's
not like I really think MM is that close to Samus. --- all hail ec your lord and savior |

You can blame it on the three Capcom characters if you want to, but
Pikachu can't be explained. He had absolutely no reason to beat L-Block
based on anything. but to deny Samus and Yoshi overlapping is like denying Squall/Sora last year. Well, you can look at Mega Man/KOS-MOS/Yoshi/Knux in round 2, if you want to. But Squall put up pretty much the exact same number on Yoshi this year, so... --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Temporarily Sidetracked |

Well, yeah. There was a witch hunt for Crono last year after he lost to
Vincent. The only reason there isn't one for MM this year is because of
Zero's presence (and expectation for him being rock-bottom anyway). --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

Woah, woah, woah. I've always been a huge supporter of Sora and GF, but
in a 1 on 1 setting I highly doubt Sora beats Sonic. Gordon I wouldn't
even consider. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

beat Sub-Zero. ...Did Soul hijack your account? --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Temporarily Sidetracked |

This match today feels so good after 2 years of Crono's strength and
future potential being insulted. Now you just have to beat Snake in the
finals, Crono! Just watch Link SFF away his Brawl fanbase and Cloud
wreck his base fanbase! --- Crono's quest to beat Link: Link vs. Crono vs. Mario vs. Samus |

Actually, gimme anyone who's won a match. Duke > Sonic looks pretty appealing. I am being serious about Sora, though. I think he has a tiny yet realistic shot. --- Yoblazer: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Problem with Sora is that the KH team is dragging their heels like
crazy. KHII had a full conclusion, and while a sequel will come it'll
be because it's, at this point, a cash cow franchise. The KH team
probably doesn't want to make another sequel that much, so they're
focusing on spinoffs that deal with stuff from the past and such. Essentially, KHIII might not come for a quite a while. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |
LeonhartFour | Posted 11/17/2008 3:13:43 PM | message detail |
After KHIII, Sora's got a realistic shot, I'd say, depending on how
well it's received (and if the PS3's gained any ground around here). But just remember, Sonic's actually supposed to be getting a GOOD game released soon! --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Temporarily Sidetracked |

It's not delusional; Cloud was less than 100 votes away from doubling
Snake in last year's final. I figure the reason Snake did so poorly was
either Link, Cloud, L-Block, or some combination of the above. I'm
fairly certain Link had some role in it because Samus beat Sephiroth
with Cloud in the poll too, and by more than Snake in fact, and while I
know Cloud SFF'd Seph harder that time, Link also SFF'd Samus down to
70-30! --- Crono's quest to beat Link: Link vs. Crono vs. Mario vs. Samus |

Sora got 45% against MM. Since then Sonic has dropped and Sora seems to have gotten a little stronger. It's possible. Slim, but possible. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |
red sox 777 | Posted 11/17/2008 3:16:10 PM | message detail |
But I don't think Crono beating Snake in the final is at all likely.
There's a very small possibility of it happening, a possibility I will
be cheering for! --- Crono's quest to beat Link: Link vs. Crono vs. Mario vs. Samus |
LeonhartFour | Posted 11/17/2008 3:17:41 PM | message detail |
I figure the reason Snake did so poorly was either Link, Cloud, L-Block, or some combination of the above. All three of them. Seriously, with the run L-Block was on, it was a miracle Snake even broke 10% in that match. --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Temporarily Sidetracked |
Fayt_Esteed | Posted 11/17/2008 3:18:54 PM | message detail |
Also, BT, are you so delusional that the idea that Mega Man dropped has
not crossed your mind? Zero had to struggle to put away Vivi, a sure
sign that he has to have dropped. For Mega Man to NOT have dropped as
well is wishful thinking. After all, TIDUS improved on him from their
2004 match. --- Isaac and Princess Kumatora for SSB4! SSBB Mains: Zelda, Peach, Lucas, Ness Now we must duel, like two gleaming banjos on a moonlit stoop! -Dimentio, SPM |

MyWorldIsCrono And Charmander thought Crono would drop to 25% charmander6000’s Prediction: Link – 37.43%, Crono – 27.42%, Mario – 19.42%, Samus – 15.73% Uhh... Also it doesn't look like Crono will be getting back over 26% anyways. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB7%20BOP.xls Character Battle 2008: Points 359/512 Today's Match: Link > Mario |
BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 11/17/2008 3:43:20 PM | message detail |
This year has probably been Square's best year since 2003, so it
doesn't surprise me that Tidus looked half-decent for once. As for
Zero, I have a hard time explaining that one, but that's mainly because
we have no idea where Hayabusa really sits. Vivi was never too far from
Zero in the first place, and once again, Square has looked great this
year. Squall/Yoshi is all the proof you need for that. --- I want adventure in the great wide somewhere... I want it more than I can tell! - Belle http://img504.imageshack.us/img504/3949/beautyandthebeast21024uh9.jpg |

Uh, boosts based on games don't just disappear after a while. Having a
game come out half a year before a contest is pretty much as good as it
gets short of having a game come out during a contest, and it certainly
beats having your only game come out 13 years ago and 3 console
generations back. --- Crono's quest to beat Link: Link vs. Crono vs. Mario vs. Samus |

I'm going to be skeptical of CTDS until I see how it sells and if it
generates any longer lasting interest here. By the time it would
matter, it'll be pushing a year old - this is for a port that most of
this site is in some way familiar with already. With something like
CTDS, I'd figure that it's more important to get new fans instead of
reinforcing old ones who already consider it one of their favorite
games - the latter being the group I figure is most likely to be buying
this to begin with. --- http://i33.tinypic.com/2s0xn3o.gif |
