I'm very surprised now. The list's placement of these games tells the full story. GTA: San Andreas - #11 God of War - #48 Tales of Symphonia - #81 Oblivion wasn't released So how the hey is San Andreas LAST right now? Especially considering that it already beat Tales of Symphonia in the GOTY 2004 poll. And how is Tales of Symphonia winning? The only thing I can think of is that ToS is the only game on a Nintendo console and the only one not rated M. Still, I'm confused. |

Well guys, I've cracked the code. ToS is the FFVI of the Game Cube. Horribly weak characters. Strong game. --- From his looks Magus is Macho Man Randy Savage as an anime zombie. The black wind howls, and one of you will snap into a Slim Jim ooh yeeeah! -sonicblastpunch |

Get this "Symphonia acts like Mega Man" stuff out of here. ToS has always had a good day vote. Compared to a game that should pull a Halo? Really? Normally, I'd say that yes, ToS has a good day vote...but it's going against games that should have monstrous day votes. Its going to get pulverized on that time zone. |

This
should show you all just how much the List and PotDs are worth! (Except
for the ones saying that FFVII finishes last in round 4 because both CT
and FFVI have beaten it in a PotD yes). --- Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |

ToS
is the only JP-developed title on there. So it's getting the entirety
of the weeaboo vote. Makes sense that it's holding its own against the
others. --- The sauce is weak with this one. But...if he could be churned, he would make a powerful stir-fry. |

GTA: San Andreas - #11 God of War - #48 Tales of Symphonia - #81 Oblivion wasn't released ToS's placement was misleading since it wasn't in the drop down list. It got on the Top 100 primarily because of Board 8 support. --- "Chiri to kashinasai! Kore de... owari desu! HIEN MESSHOUJIN!!! Toki wa modoranai, sore ga sizen no setsuri." ~Presea Combatir |

From: UltimaterializerX | #218 I really don't care about the story. From what I've seen about RPGs, the battle system trumps everything else because that holds the overwhelming bulk of all gameplay, and I thought ToS's was just awful. Couldn't get into it at all. --- I, like clockwork, have been humiliated by hochiminh Hochiminh is better than me. I was a numbskull for thinking I could defy Him. |
