alright, that's all I need to see. Square finally looks bad - it took long enough.

TP looking good to rise to heaven. nice showing, I'd say.

So... with HL2 having some serious strength here, any chance RE4 gets knocked out next round?


Well if anything I'd have to say it's more likely to get knocked out than stay in. It's already 50-50 with KH2, and adding Twilight Princess is almost certainly going to hurt RE4 more than KH2

RE4 screwed confirmed

I still have faith. Zelda there at least ensures KH doesn't stand out like crazy.

Frankly, Twilight Princess *should* be doubling Half-Life 2.

*yawn*

Why do people overestimate these games?

KH still stands out against Half-Life 2, Resident Evil 4, and Zelda, but it doesn't need it to win that. Can't see RE4 advancing out of that group, I'd think KH2 takes an easy second.

Seriously. What was that, ten straight good/great/excellent performances in a row? Even smallfries like Xenogears and Mana looked good.

I wouldn't be so sure that TP hurts RE4 more than KHII. In fact, I would argue the contrary. Yoblazer and myself are finally on the same page.

transience | Posted 5/3/2009 9:17:58 PM | message detail
this is good stuff though - RE4 vs. KH2, round 2.

I know some people want to equate RE4 with Nintendo, but I'd sooner equate it with stuff like Gears of War. Zelda is its own thing. thanks to FF12's bomb (or HL2's strength?), we've got a nice r2 match.

strange to think of KH2 so far above FF12 now.

BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 5/3/2009 9:17:58 PM | message detail
Like I said, it's tough to say.

TP/KH2/RE4 will all be fairly close, but KH2 definitely stands out there.

RPGuy96 | Posted 5/3/2009 9:19:18 PM | message detail
Hm. If Half-Life 2 takes this, we've got TP/HL2/RE4/KHII next round. Gotta like KHII for that one - if RE4 should be moderately independent, but it's boxed in by a Nintendo game and a shooter; 600 votes isn't asking for much to swing.

That sets up MGS3/something/TP/KHII. Not sure who I like between KHII and MGS3.

TP/KHII/Brawl/MGS4 and TP/MGS3/Brawl/MGS4. KHII again or both Nintendo games advance?

Ocarina/something/TP/KHII...even if something is FFVIII/FFX I can't imagine TP taking that, but if something is Melee due to FFX/FFVIII knocking each other out in Ocarina/FFVIII/Melee/FFX...

Next round is pretty balanced: GC/PS2/Wii, PS2, Wii/GC, and PC. I don't think any one game stands out drastically more than the others.

yeah, I agree with this. I think KH overlaps with Zelda more than RE4 does, personally.

I guess we can see what happens in a couple weeks.

Looks like the debate I got into the strength of NES FInal Fantasy is over. I insisted that there was no way FF12 was stronger than FF1, and that looks confirmed. FF12 can still come back but it's clearly not that strong.

It's also likely that FF1 is stronger than FF9, but they're not too far apart.

Hey guys, FFXII is totally equal to or stronger than KHII. The GotY polls prove it!

I don't get it though. The game is titled after the character, so it would make sense it would be as popular as the character.

This. There is only so low you can put GEars of War. And it getting only 13% makes me think that pack is stronger then we thought.

The character is kind of an Internet phenomenon of sorts so he probably gets something from that.

And even so, I mean, this isn't THAT bad of a performance. I don't know why people expected it to get close to FFXII and HL2.

Did anybody here seriously thought it was a contender for top 10? If so they must have been blind fanboys or suffering from Zelda fear.
