FFX will SFF the crap out of KH, that's really the only certainty.

A quick question: which games were taken out and replaced before SBAllen opened submissions?

I know SSFII Turbo was taken out and replaced with MK2, but were there any others? Sorry, I missed this when it happened.

That match isn't really hard to me. I don't think KH hurts FFX enough for there to make any difference.

You know, MGS/Pokemon/Zelda: MM/FFT is a pretty interesting debacle.

I'm honestly considering FFT to upset MM here..

That's a reasonable upset, but I think most people have another Pokemon game in FFT's place.

Now of course Ramza disappointing is probably the only thing keeping me from doing it, but I honestly think Final Fantasy games should do well in this format. They always have.

Can't see a flagship GCN game getting beat by two PlayStation 2 games! One on which is regarded as the worst since its series went 3D!

I'm more worried about MGS beating FFT than MM even placing there.

Yeah, that was my line of thinking. Not to mention how far off the map Tidus has gone since 2004.

MGS2 isn't that far away from FFX. KH will syphon off enough to let MGS2 and MP slip by. The only question is if it is MGS2 > MP or visa-versa.

vs. Super Mario RPG, Goldeneye, Resident Evil 2. Ugh, my top 3 games in the same match.
hochiminhX | Posted 3/11/2009 7:39:04 PM | message detail
Paper Mario won't be nearly as strong as Super Mario RPG and while SMRPG is fairly viable, it isn't top-tier. Paper Mario goes nowhere.

I should clarify... goes nowhere and syphons negligible support. VC is weaker than ever too, keep in mind.

I don't think Paper Mario will be that much of a threat but I also doubt Metroid Prime is THAT strong. Paper Mario should siphon enough support that VC goes on.

GTA's still been on a decline and KH and Nintendo have gone nowhere but up since then.

Now that's an upset pick o_0

Vice City is old, and Grand Theft Auto only seems to do worse the more it ages. In a match with Paper Mario, Kingdom Hearts and Metroid Prime, it's just got no room to breathe.

NP: Tetris > Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!
SonicRaptor | Posted 3/11/2009 8:35:30 PM | message detail
Everyone that picks GTA:VC over Metroid Prime and Paper Mario expects that the latter two will leech and suck votes off of one another. If that happens then VC will edge past especially since Metroid's kryptonite in these contests is Mario and Paper Mario is barely a midcard Mario series.

Nobody that is making that pick is doing so with complete confidence, it is an upset pick and I think many realize this.

Metroid Prime went up against Wind Waker pretty fine, so if it does split with Paper Mario, I think it won't put Metroid out of the running against Vice City.. but possibly Kingdom Hearts.

As it does Tidus/Claire.

Yesmar | Posted 3/11/2009 9:08:27 PM | message detail
How the **** is Claire almost last?

I guess Leon SFFs her, even though prior to RE4 she was most likely more popular.

If I had to try to figure this poll out somehow I would guess:

Leon SFFs everyone, Ada and Claire most of all.
Jill SFFs Chris and Nemesis too, I guess.
Jill and Chris, both SFF Rebecca, who is weak as hell anyway.
Wesker's fanbase is probably the most independent, but still gets SFFd by the mains somewhat.

I think I've got it:

Leon's in the only RE game that doesn't suck.
Jill's got the most recognizable knockers in the series.
Wesker reminds people of The Fonz.
Nemesis has an interesting name.
Everyone else, eh, who cares.

It's Capcom's fault for not giving all the women huge breasts.

Gaming is seriously going downhill with the decline in digital sweater puppies.
