So, does Call of Duty win tomorrow or get second? What's the general consensus? --- Current Score: 172 Today's pick: Twilight Princess > Resident Evil 4 |

I got CoD4 > SSBB. SSBB is stronger but Mario Galaxy should hurt it enough to let CoD4 into first --- http://www.xboxlc.com/cards/blue2/Albion%20Hero.jpg http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/39/girugamesh.gif |

Call of Duty slaughters
tomorrow's match. As much as I would like Brawl (and by extension MGS4)
to be a top-tier game, it's not, and Galaxy is going to drag Brawl down
in a humiliating defeat. --- turnturnturn your brain in http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |
__Smurf__ | Posted 5/22/2009 10:35:52 AM | message detail |
I'm
unsure. Mainly because Mario games tend to be high priority in the SFF
chain which could really hurt Brawls chances. But something about COD's
strength last round doesn't sit easy with me, maybe Galaxy is just
extremely weak? --- (\__/) Meet Ziggy,the Evil Bunny who wants to take over the world and eat the flesh of the weak. (='.'=] Put Ziggy in your sig to support his cause. |

Yeah,
let's consider a KHII comeback when it wins a 15-minute update for
once. It still has 1.5 hours left of this, and I don't think there has
ever been anything even close to a 2000 vote comeback on something with
a decent day vote. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |

From: KamikazePotato | #455 ...KH doesn't have a good during school vote. This is a better time for night games. Frog kept on gaining on Axel during this time, too. --- http://www.xboxlc.com/cards/blue2/Albion%20Hero.jpg http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/39/girugamesh.gif |

What
I think will happen is that Brawl will still win it (barely) and Galaxy
will sadly put up a terrible performance in a distant third. Chances
are that most people who like Brawl also like Galaxy and vice versa,
and Nintendo fans seem to drop a game for another that has a chance of
winning. --- Current Score: 172 Today's pick: Twilight Princess > Resident Evil 4 |

If
Brawl easily sffs Galaxy down, I expect Galaxy to finish 4th After its
first round match, I'm not sure how far off GTA4 is from it anyway --- http://www.xboxlc.com/cards/blue2/Albion%20Hero.jpg http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/39/girugamesh.gif |

anything even close to a 2000 vote comeback on something with a decent

COD4
will receive a nice boost due to new hype about Modern Warfare 2. If it
wins comfortably tomorrow I like its chances of making it out of the
division. |

Stop
trying to downplay Squall's ASV so you can uphold your point about you
thinking Sora's day vote isn't great. Squall didn't fall off at all
with his ASV against Yoshi. 5% dropoff against Sora. --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

How much do you expect RBY/GS to get on DP before SFF? Before I would have told you that it would have been a slaughtering of epic proportions, but RBY barely got 58% on GS after SFF. Barring a radical reassessing of GS's popularity, DP can't be that weak comparatively. --- turnturnturn your brain in http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

KH's
ASV isn't a tier above Halo/Smash, sure, but Sora's is, much like
Master Chief - the character trends seem to be much more pronounced
than their games. Maybe a night voter feels a lot less lame voting for
Kingdom Hearts than he does for Sora. --- turnturnturn your brain in http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

For the third time this topic KH's ASV is one of the best, but it isn't a tier above Halo/Smash. No one's saying it's above that except maybe Albion. But after watching SSBM rip face and watching Halo do nothing with the ASV the other day, you can throw Halo out of the conversation. The ASV power seems more exclusive to Master Chief. --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

Not even I think KH is above those. Those are the 3 gods of the asv though. --- http://www.xboxlc.com/cards/blue2/Albion%20Hero.jpg http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/39/girugamesh.gif |

While
it wasn't said by anyone it was greatly implied. One of the reasons why
Sora became famous with the ASV was because he had night vote
opponents. Of course if he never did he'd still be known for having a
great ASV. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/BGE2%20BOP.xls BGE2 - Today's Match: LoZ: TP > RE4 Points: 151/232 |

One of the reasons why Sora became famous with the ASV was because he had night vote opponents. You can say the same thing about Smash and Halo. You gotta throw Pokemon's ASV into the discussion here, too, I think.

It's hard to see 2000 not being a safe enough lead when about half the votes are still gonna be going to the other two games. --- Should I start running now? |
charmander6000 | Posted 5/22/2009 11:05:39 AM | message detail |
Well at this point KHII needs 53.5% of the remaining votes against RE4, that's about a 7% shift. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/BGE2%20BOP.xls BGE2 - Today's Match: LoZ: TP > RE4 Points: 151/232 |

honestly, I just want to see KHII make a run at RE4 with the ASV. I
don't even care if it wins. Just give us something to cheer about in
this contest! --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

@Somebody
earlier: GoldenEye was an N64 exclusive and was actually published by
Nintendo, while Resident Evil 4 was on the PS2 as well as the GCN and
Wii. So GoldenEye would be significantly more Nintendo than RE4 would
be. Current discussion: I have a funny feeling that Mario Galaxy will fare well tomorrow seeing as every Mario game and every game I've beaten has been impressing so far. I also think that SSBB does not SFF SMG since most Nintendo fans prefer the latter. Then again, one Best Games for a Nintendo System List has Super Mario Galaxy only being beaten out by Ocarina of Time and Super Mario Bros., and MARIO KART WII is in fourth. Okay, screw that, but I think SSBB will be weakened a bit from last round while SMG keeps its strength from last round. I was also mousing around about the possibility that GTAIV and CoD4 (lots of 4s, whoa) share a fanbase since they're on the same three gaming systems (minus CoD4 being on the DS and PSP, heh), and that CoD4 would be hurt by SSBB like Halo was hurt by SSBM. But I stick with SSBB > CoD4 regardless. Oh well, tomorrow's match is riddled with modern masterpieces, so I don't care about the order all that much. |

*logs in and checks poll* Wow, really close. So those of you more familiar with trends than me, how do Zelda and RE4 compare with ASV and SNV? Who do you all think will win this match? --- You can't run away from trouble, there ain't no place that far. |

If
the games of the century are eliminated in one fell swoop then I don't
know what to think of this site. I mean, I like Ocarina of Time and A
Link to the Past, and I like what I've seen of all the Final Fantasies,
but KINGDOM HEARTS II??? Come on, people. |

It won that 15 minute block by 3 votes. In order to get ahead in its 5 hours of dominance it needs to win each block by around 100. --- Smurf 60% of the time he's awesome every time. |

From: LinkMarioSamus | #484 This poll has 3 of the 25 best games ever made. (1 of them top 10). Don't blame the people of GameFAQs for understanding that Half Life 2 just can't compare. As for RE 4, that is the one I have in the top 10, and it should win, but I think I am kinda pulling for KH II right now, just because it would be a great comeback, and the strongest Non Nintendo/Square game on this site would not even make it to the round of 32, which about says everything about our demographics I think. --- DO YOU REALIZE THAT JACK BAUER JUST KILLED 3 MEN WHILE HANDCUFFED, BAREHANDED, DISEASED, DRUGGED AFTER HAVING A NEEDLE STUCK IN HIS NECK??? |
