Better question would be Kingdom Hearts v Twilight Princess! Yeah I'm putting my money on lightning to strike twice it really is just another Majora's Mask after all wouldn't you say <_< I'll still take Twilight Princess over Kingdom Hearts. It's the only Zelda I've played that I actually like! And I think the hate on that game is being overrated. --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

TP is probably too much for KH to handle, but KH2 would take this (KH2 > RE4 this is happening!) As far as rankings go, let's see... Final Fantasy X Super Smash Bros. Melee Kingdom Hearts The Wind Waker StarCraft Metal Gear Solid 2 Metroid Prime Halo Vice City --- http://i44.tinypic.com/hwh4yo.gif |

I'm just happy to see Metroid Prime lose since the Metroid series in general in incredibly overrated to me but Prime is by far better than the 2D ones. (I've only played Prime 1, though) --- Today's prediction: Darkness 33.85% - Prime 29.00% - Hawaiian Shirt City 21.78% - Pepper Mario 15.37% Status: poo |

TP is probably too much for KH to handle, but KH2 would take this (KH2 > RE4 this is happening!) Ehh, I'm not expecting KHII > KH. That loss to FFXII in the 2006 GOTY troubles me too much to consider that. And two people putting Metroid Prime > Halo > Vice City? How bad do you think Paper Mario is LFFing Prime, or do you think the three are virtually equal? --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

I
wouldn't even look at that 2006 poll to mean anything. FFXII would've
whomped on KH in the same fashion -- recency and being Final Fantasy
will do that. And yeah, I'd consider them all about equal right now. Not hard to believe that Paper Mario is holding MP back a couple percent. --- http://i44.tinypic.com/hwh4yo.gif |

Hard
for people to consider GTA having any kind of strength even in the face
of it not disappointing (very much) for once. I think more people will
be open-minded if San Andreas ends up doing well or if VC gives MGS2 a
fight. --- turnturnturn your brain in http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |
LeonhartFour | Posted 4/28/2009 7:56:32 AM | message detail |
I
think I hold Halo in higher esteem than others here. I think it's
probably stronger now than it was in 2004, same with Kingdom Hearts.
Master Chief himself is stronger than he was in 2004, so it makes sense
to me. I know people are probably judging Halo on the fact that MC
disappointed relative to expectations last year, but I still think Halo
will do well. *shrugs* --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |
ZFS | Posted 4/28/2009 7:58:26 AM | message detail |
I'll
have to see Halo do well before I believe it's strong. There's no Halo
on the radar right now, which is usually when the series is at its
weakest, and Halo 3 getting rocked by COD4 doesn't inspire much
confidence in the series being any better now. We'll see how it does
tomorrow. --- http://i44.tinypic.com/hwh4yo.gif |
KamikazePotato | Posted 4/28/2009 7:58:52 AM | message detail |
San Andreas doing well in R1 wouldn't mean much. It's against three new games who, besides Oblivion, are kind of weak. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |
LeonhartFour | Posted 4/28/2009 8:00:33 AM | message detail |
I'd expect the original Halo is a step or two above the other two. Could be wrong though. --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |
Karma Hunter | Posted 4/28/2009 8:00:55 AM | message detail |
Hey,
I saw people contemplating Oblivion > SA not very long ago
(something I don't think is out of the question)! You can at least make
some rough comparisons with Oblivion and Morrowind, even though it's a
99% certainty that Oblivion is significantly stronger. --- turnturnturn your brain in http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

Halo's probably the strongest one, but I wouldn't expect it to be by a whole lot. --- http://i44.tinypic.com/hwh4yo.gif |

I don't think Oblivion will beat San Andreas, but I could be wrong. I just realized that I originally had KH > VC here. Whoops. --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

Oblivion
beating SA would be a huge feat. Would you expect Oblivion to easy beat
Metroid Prime? Because that's what SA would be doing here. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |

From: KamikazePotato | #279 I'd expect Fallout 3 to easily beat Metroid Prime, and Oblivion is probably closer to that then Morrowind. --- http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/blue/Albion+Hero.png Starcraft >= Diablo 2 > The Lost Vikings 2 >> trash >>>> World of Warcraft |

GTAIII
is kind of a long shot tomorrow, in my opinion, but after today, I
can't deny the possibility. People have been saying that it could be
stronger than Vice City, so if it is, it's in a good position to
advance. I'm kinda concerned Diablo might bomb tomorrow though, so we'll see. --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

KOTOR wasn't that weak last time around either, so its kinda sad to see it stuck in a definite 4th spot match cuz of Halo. --- http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/blue/Albion+Hero.png Starcraft >= Diablo 2 > The Lost Vikings 2 >> trash >>>> World of Warcraft |

hated it. SB makes cool site changes but jesus christ does he fail at running contests. --- It's not fair if FF is in the title it always wins. http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2455 |

I
don't think this is so much KH doing well as it is Prime doing
absolutely awful; VC currently has 40% on KH, better than StarCraft on
FFVIII or MGS2 on FFX, and StarCraft/MGS2 both beat VC easily. With
that said I like KH to advance next round, but mostly because the other
options are unpalatable. VC (or Prime should it somehow come through)
obviously aren't going anywhere, and MGS2's 38% on FFX does not inspire
confidence either. --- Mustache...and Green... http://backloggery.com/rpguy96 |
RPGuy96 | Posted 4/28/2009 8:48:12 AM | message detail |
And saying this is the supposed Deboost in action...really? A Metroid
game is flopping and that's used to condemn every Nintendo game in the
last ten years, after we saw three standout performances last division
from games that are only slightly older? That's like saying Mega Man
2's awful performance presaged the fall of all 2D Nintendo titles! --- Mustache...and Green... http://backloggery.com/rpguy96 |
ChinballWizards | Posted 4/28/2009 8:49:08 AM | message detail |
I
don't think you can say Starcraft beats VC easily, or even at all. That
was a pretty awful showing it had. If anything it should benefit from
the format, and it was going against three PS1 games. Basically there's
no reason it should have been closer to SC than FF8. --- ballin on dem chins all hail ec your lord and savior |

with Super Mario Kart. Metroid is not strong, Samus is strong because of Melee. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/BGE2%20BOP.xls BGE2 - Today's Match: KH > GTA: VC Points: 61/84 |
