nah there was lots of discussion about MGS4 being easily the weakest MGS game. --- xyzzy |

I'm
really close to the leaderboard right now. Only 15 people away. And if
this match continues the way it is now, which I think it will, I'll get
another 8 points. :D It would be my first time on the leaderboard. I'd be stoked. --- Q. If your canoe is in a tree with its headlights on, how many pancakes does it take to get to the moon? A. None. Snakes don't have armpits. |

But Day Vote =/= ASV Most people won't say Halo's got a great day vote. They'll say it's got a great ASV. Same thing for KH and Smash Bros. --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

MGS4 >> MGS3 then Sounds right. MGS2 and MGS3 have performed like you would expect of the bottom of the Metal Gear series. MGS1 and MGS4 have done a good bit better than both so far. --- a metal slime appears |

nah there was lots of discussion about MGS4 being easily the weakest MGS game. Those were the same people who thought being a PS3 exclusive meant something. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/BGE2%20BOP.xls BGE2 - Today's Match: MGS4 > Fallout 3 Points: 163/248 |

MGS4's
pre-contest range has got to be the biggest we've ever seen for
anything. Some had it pegged as easily the weakest of the four MGS
games. Others had it winning the contest. --- Yoblazer: http://i44.tinypic.com/25z1non.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

nah there was lots of discussion about MGS4 being easily the weakest MGS game. After that GOTY performance, I'm not sure why such a discussion ever happened. Sure, I guess people could call it a fluke, but Brawl was only going to be so weak. --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

The real question is who wins between MGS4 and MGS1? --- I can feel it coming over me; I feel it all around me. http://www.rosebride.com/lyn/otakon2k6/chronotrigger.jpg |

That's probably close, at least indirectly. MGS1 hasn't done well enough for me to say it'd be doing much better here. --- a metal slime appears |

MGS1,
and I think it's become underrated since the contest started. As for
the idea of MGS4 being the weakest MGS game, playership is a very
overrated argument. --- Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |

So Bioshock may end up outperforming Halo 3 here? That would have been a good upset pick if they were in a match together --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

Brawl
is going to stand out bigtime, but Fallout 3 didn't hurt MGS4 any more
during the GotY voting. I think MGS4 has a good chance at staying
competitive (or at least respectable) next round, and I'm hoping that that'll just lead to this whole division being jump. Here's to hoping! --- Yoblazer: http://i37.tinypic.com/x1d2s9.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Magus
and Frog have identical trends for the first 22 hours, getting Magus a
painstakingly built 1000 vote lead, which Frog proceeds to demolish in
the last 2 hours? --- Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |

Yeah,
I'm thinking Brawl will whomp on MGS4 next round. Not only is it going
to stand out, but it's probably stronger than those GOTY polls
indicated. --- a metal slime appears |

Magus
and Frog have identical trends for the first 22 hours, getting Magus a
painstakingly built 1000 vote lead, which Frog proceeds to demolish in
the last 2 hours? Almost identical. I'll bet that Frog gets the board vote over Magus here. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but still not as cool as FastFalcon05, Guru Champ! |

Melee absolutely destroyed MGS2. I stand by this. If the winner won by more than 1000 votes then the match was a blowout. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/BGE2%20BOP.xls BGE2 - Today's Match: MGS4 > Fallout 3 Points: 163/248 |
MyWorldIsCrono | Posted 5/23/2009 9:49:37 PM | message detail |
Brawl
easily beats MGS4 next round. Plus, I'd bet CoD4/Fallout 3 have more
overlap with MGS4 both being on PS3 then SSBB, so that should only help
SSBB there --- http://www.xboxlc.com/cards/blue2/Albion%20Hero.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v212/gelupeh/axel_post_top2.png |
LeonhartFour | Posted 5/23/2009 9:49:52 PM | message detail |
Brawl would stand out like crazy in the final GOTY poll last year, too. Standing out won't make a difference, I don't think. http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3363 Heck, Brawl is the ONLY Nintendo game here, and it STILL lost to MGS4. --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |
transience | Posted 5/23/2009 9:50:13 PM | message detail |
didn't
Brawl stand out bigtime in the GOTY polls? remember people arguing that
removing Crisis Core, Gears of War, Fallout 3, etc etc would help MGS4?
and Brawl just had bigger wins anyway? --- xyzzy "Actually, fire didn't make Sephiroth awesome. Sephiroth made fire awesome." -Karma Hunter |

ZFS | Posted 5/23/2009 9:51:18 PM | message detail |
Again, that's just one part of it. It can never hurt to be a big standout. And Brawl's looked much
better in this contest than it ever did at any point during the GOTY
polls. Even with as recent as those are, I wouldn't expect them to go
the same way when it comes contest time. --- a metal slime appears |

Brawl will probably take the division title, though FO3/CoD4 will probably be a good match to watch. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/BGE2%20BOP.xls BGE2 - Today's Match: MGS4 > Fallout 3 Points: 163/248 |
PartOfYourWorld | Posted 5/23/2009 9:52:14 PM | message detail |
You can put together some pretty interesting arguments with that match. Brawl does stand out, BUT -Fallout 3 seemed to hurt both games about equally in the GotY voting. -CoD4, like Halo, is a very casual-friendly, multiplayer-centric game with a good day vote. In that sense, it's much more similar to Brawl than it is to MGS4 --- Yoblazer: http://i38.tinypic.com/2s024p4.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
LeonhartFour | Posted 5/23/2009 9:52:19 PM | message detail |
I
don't think being a standout really matters much. That factor has been
way overplayed. I can't think of an instance off the top of my head
when it mattered. Somebody help me out here? And we say Brawl looks better now because we thought getting 52% on MGS4 was weak. It's not. --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

Brawl
smashed the Wii poll (just like MGS4 smashed the PS3 poll). its only
other polls were against MGS4 when -- hey -- it had trouble. --- yzzyx |

Brawl
wasn't only disappointing in that 1v1 against MGS4. Every time it was
in one of those polls it was disappointing. It's done much better now,
and I'd be shocked if MGS4 could even keep it competitive next round. --- a metal slime appears |
