Come on SM, hold on to the lead. i don't care that i get more points if SMK>SM happens (Sonic3 > SM lol scoring system) It's ****ing Super Metroid, the best game Nintendo ever made, and the best game on the SNES that doesn't have the word "Trigger" in it. (IMO) --- A pro isn't someone who sacrifices himself for his job. That's just a fool. - Reno, FFVII |

Very bad reasoning. Yes, they are PS2 games, but their fanbases are
as far part as you could possibly think of. One is a mature game with
heavy violence and not one that most kiddies are going to play. The
other is powered heavily by the kiddie vote. I think you have that backwards. One is a highly violent game that most "kiddies" see and go, "Omg, guns and cars and sex, playing this will make me so cool!", whereas the other is a very well put together adventure RPG that would probably make most kiddies bored, thus more liked by the older audience that can appreciate how good it is. --- h. http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/645/sigbert.png |

Now granted I've never gotten past the first dungeon in lttp, but that
lttp pic looks weird to me and i have no idea what that is at the top,
just looks like a bunch of sprites blended together --- http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/blue/Albion+Hero.png http://img2.gelbooru.com/images/378/86b7a0dada9b6d09cd92aaaa2fed5c0f425774f6.gif |

Dunno what's weirder, Sonic sucking this much or Samus actually holding up against Nintendo. The idea that Samus folds to everything Nintendo is so overblown. She held up exactly like you'd expect against Link, and has performed to expectations or better against every Nintendo opponent not named Mario. Unless you want to take that Zelda match seriously... but that's just dumb as hell. --- all hail ec your lord and savior |

t's ****ing Super Metroid, the best game Nintendo ever made, and the
best game on the SNES that doesn't have the word "Trigger" in it. I never played Super Metroid, but of the games I have played, Zelda: Link To The Past is the best. |

so well. i also can't believe sonic did so bad. I actually played the
