Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 682

If your title has a "Final Fantasy, Zelda, or Mario" in the title, you're likely set?

FFVIII > MGS


Yeah, but the only problem is that this means FFIX gets past Half-Life, which means FFVIII and FFIX are both dead meat in round 2.

I would not say we have enough evidence to claim that DKC2 is weaker than DKC. Being up against 3 strong games is a lot different than being up against 1 strong game and a bunch of fodder.

FFVIII > MGS

I always thought FFVIII/MGS would be like less severe version of FFVII/MGS2 from 2k4, and after seeing how big franchise voting/Square and Nintendo games are, I'm feelin' really good about that happening so long as FFVIII doesn't get held back by FFIX in round 2.

here comes RE2. I figure this'll end somewhere around 36/30/23/11.

It should end up above 21. Maybe even 22, but I don't see it getting up to 23. SMRPG should drop quite a bit at night and when Europe gets up, but they won't do too much to SMRPG's percentage since this is a weekend match.

I still think franchise voting is being overestimated and that we just can't imagine SMRPG being this strong or being stronger.

MGS could already be a part of franchise voting, after all. We haven't seen it in action yet, after all, and I'd be surprised if games featuring Solid Mother****ing Snake didn't get huge casual support.

Welcome to my bracket. I have Starcraft getting out of that one with FFVIII and FFIX hurting each other.

If FFIX advances, I can pretty much rip my bracket up because I've got FFVIII getting out of the division with OoT because I was banking on CC holding back FFIX.

FFIX advances despite Chrono Cross, then Starcraft advances in round 2.

Geno pulled the biggest overnight collapse this side of Oregon Trail, so we'll see if SMRPG does likewise. Probably the Mario name can save it from abject humiliation in Europe (Geno was getting around half the percentage in his worst hour in the dead zone that he got in the power hour, IIRC).

Much as I love FF8, I'm not hopeful about it advancing. I mean, its got a big cut on its votes with Xenogears in the same poll, and Starcraft is almost certainly going to take first, so Soul Calibur might just squeeze in as a crappy second place. I hope I'm wrong about it, though.

DKC will defend itself against LoZ:LttP/SM/SMK better than DKC2 is against GE/SMRPG/RE2, I bet.

So should GoldenEye, as Nintendo games do bad at night. FPS games (excluding Doom) like Halo would do bad at night (if you go by Master Chief's trends), so maybe GoldenEye might follow similar trends.
