Also remember that MGS4 is a really, REALLY bad game.

No wonder MWC likes it.

Seriously, it RUINED AN ENTIRE SERIES. I CANNOT STRESS HOW BIG AND BAD A FEAT THAT IS.

However I would like to state I do not feel the same as MWC

moreso Brawl >= Melee overall but for just a fun night with friends Brawl >>> Melee

Both are great though

Valkyrie Profile is the PS3 game of the year

But I'm sure you all knew that and are just joking about MGS4.

FastFalcon05 sure knows how to fill out a Guru Contest bracket better than I!
Lightning Strikes | Posted 11/20/2008 6:38:03 PM | message detail
If it weren't 2:30, I would explain in detail just how absurdly bad MGS4 is.

But instead I'll just say "lol Nanomachines" and "the worst post-credits scene in THE HISTORY OF ENTERTAINMENT".

Oh, and the gameplay was a big step back from MGS3's perfection.

LS appears

I believe that's my cue to take leave of the stats topic yup

Until next contest! I know you will all miss me very much, but try not to cry too much. I will grace you all with my presc- okay I can't keep that up. Fun times were had, and it was nice conversing and debating with you all. Maybe by the next time I see you guys I will have gained the ability to judge fanbase hierarchies well (Luigi>Mario, Zidane>Zack, Cecil>Kain woo).

I don't hate anyone. I do, however, have the ability to judge that when obvious fanboy logic interspersed with phrases like 'lol x-stats' starts being used, it's a good time to bail.

Raven has apparently started updating contest histories.

I don't know if that's his own, personal project, but if you want to help him out, just letting you know.

2002: Final match pits Link vs Mario. It's kind of a letdown, and is less popular than the matches leading up to it, presumably due to SFF.

2003: Final match pits Cloud vs Sephiroth. It's kind of a letdown, and is less popular than the matches leading up to it, presumably due to SFF.

2008: Final match pits Link vs Link vs Link vs Link. It's... the most popular match of the season. By far.

Hmm......

Link is so good at SFF he has more fanbase overlap with Cloud, Snake, and Crono than he does with himself. Don't ask me how that's possible!

Odd, since everything I've seen points to it bringing the series back after that abortion of a game MGS3.

Great, loved it, can't wait until next year 23.02% 87
It was good, but I miss last year's surprise winner 19.84% 75
Yawn, can it take a year off? 14.29% 54
Bleah, can this one be the last one ever? 17.46% 66
Whatever, just give me a Best Game Ever contest! 25.4% 96

BGE definitely won the bracket vote (as in I want to make a Games bracket), so I wouldn't be so sure of it winning just because of a lead at the freeze...

#1 Guy, while I have your attention, do you think you could post your bracket inside this topic?

We try to archive the full bracket of each season's winner out on the wiki page when possible.

It's not the joke option, it's the "board" option. Or more accurately the "people who pay attention to the Contest" option, much like Snake was for those first 2-3 hours.

Nice to see CD-I Link hold up. Now I think I'm taking leave for a while from this topic. Well I might keep up, it does move a lot slower during non contest season. We'll see, just saying history doesn't support that I will pay attention unless there's going to be another contest really soon and I know that's the case.

And you know, Solid Snake didn't actually beat Link. Screw it, give me 1v1s I was Snake hype driven when I said "yay 4 ways" this contest was really not that fun outside Pikachu's match and the final 16.

Obviously, games contest first, I'm just saying for the next CB.
