Interesting... FF4 isn't even getting 80% on River City Ransom, but... River City Ransom (2004g) VS Final Fantasy 1 (2004g) River City Ransom has a strength of 7.04. Final Fantasy 1 has a strength of 35.46. Final Fantasy 1 wins with 90.07% of the vote! A win of 60,016 with 74,883 total votes cast. Anything to worry about or no? --- http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/blue/Albion+Hero.png http://img2.gelbooru.com/images/378/86b7a0dada9b6d09cd92aaaa2fed5c0f425774f6.gif |

Interesting... FF4 isn't even getting 80% on River City Ransom. Yes, it is. Also, keep in mind that RCR was behind a maelstrom of SFF in 2004.

PartOfYourWorld | Posted 4/14/2009 2:18:45 AM | message detail Speaking of which, what do you guys think will be Bacon's annual post-contest joke poll this time around? E.T. vs. Shaq-Fu vs. Superman 64 vs. Big Rigs Do it, Bacon. Salvage this contest! The last 2 bonus matches at the end of the contest had the winner actually in the poll. L-Block for 2007 character battle bonus match and Link (as Classic Link) for the last character battle. So if FFVII wins, wouldn't it be right to have it in the poll and see how much it destroys its competition? One of those 4 games would have to be replaced with FFVII (if it wins).

Looks like FFIV has FFVII-like trends so far. Though perhaps it's just Mega Man's usual collapse. And I don't know why that Europe debate went on so long. Here's how FF1, which wasn't released in Europe either, did there: http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3452®ion=EUR --- FastFalcon and Solid Snake snapped my neck in the guru contest. |

| So is FF4's golden run to the semi-finals still looking good? Mega Man 3 needs FF1 to help bridge this gap of approx. 15% next round, but it will likely be SFFed by Super Mario World itself as well. Personally I think FF4 is going to do it especially with a better picture next round (DS Rydia front and centre please). |

Yessssss 50%. And of course FF4 is dominating Europe. 1) It's Final Fantasy. 2) The competition is MegaMan, Crystalis, and RCR. Of course it's winning! --- Please, don't insult me Vlado about British blood FAST FALCON IS THE WINNER |

If you use RCR Vs. Pong, Megaman 3 gets ~64% on Pong Megaman 2 got ~67.75% on Pong in its match And FF4 only gets 70.61% on Pong. lol Tetris > FF4 FF4 is so screwed --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

That was a trick with numbers BTW, if you compare RCR directly with FF4 is gets like 73.5% on Pong Just so no one gets confused. Wait it's not even all that different, it's still bad. That was pointless --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

LOL 4chan. FFI actually does better during the day than at night, probably due to Battletoads. PoP actually averaged above 5% in the morning! Mario World had a bad first night vote, but it owned the rest of the day.

It seems it's a lot easier for games to score 50% than it was for
characters- Noble Niners had lots of trouble hitting that mark last
year. I guess there's a lot more turbofodder with games. --- Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |

with Mega Man being balls in the deep hours and these other games not
meaning a damn, FF4 kinda wins by default. it should do well until
about 7 or 8, when Mega Man will start making a small comeback in
percentage. --- xyzzy http://www.mistwalkercorp.com/en/_src/sc569/HNI_0022.jpg |

Reading through this topic just now was hilarious. Everybody and their
mother is trashing FFIV and it still goes and gets 50%. Question: How
exactly is FFIV being accused of getting franchise votes while FF1
avoids this? That makes no sense. Since when did FF1 become a beacon of
power? I see no indications that would lead me to believe that FFIV
wouldn't have done the same things in FF1's place. --- Proud Supporter of Zero |

I find it hard to believe that anyone thinks FF1's power is anything
but franchise leaching. I think the logic is.. maybe the 4 in the
number makes it harder to get franchise voters rather than just being
listed as "Final Fantasy" and as a result, FF1 is stronger due to more
franchise vote power? I don't know the logic. --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
