Just the name Cid wouldn't be any stronger than Cid Highwind. The only other Cid worth voting for is FFXII's Cid.


Iuno about you, but FF4 Cid rocked

You know, if we didn't specify with a last name, I bet Cid could be a near-elite.

I think Cid Highwind does better than just Cid actually.

I still want to see good ol' Vault Boy. Fallout 3's pretty popular here, and the guy is easily recognizable, oozes character design, and has a ton of potential pics.

You could do worse in choosing new characters. And hey, at least it's someone new not from a Square or Nintendo game.

Except Cid would still get the push from the FFVII crowd, as well as the rest of the FF crowd, plus we could have hilariously awesome match pics!

FFIV Cid was okay. He's the only other one worth mentioning, at least.

Yeah, 'Highwind' would help more than it would hurt. FFVII Cid is really the only major Cid in the series for most people.

Actually yeah, Vault Boy would be a good choice, especially with Fallout 3s popularity. He could be a midcarder

Just thinking about it, it's humorous that the #2 N64 game gets tripled by the #1 N64 game, and the #2 PSX game gets 30% on the #1 FFVII game. That has to be the biggest disparity between #1 and #2 on any console. Of course, they'd do better indirectly, but still.

FF4 Cid is the biggest badass in the entire ****ing series. He ****ing blew himself up and then just got up, dusted himself off, and went, "Oh well, time to fix another airship!"

But then again, FF4 had a whole breed of badasses you don't see in modern FF's. Blowing one's self up was a commonplace occurrence in FF4 and nobody ever died from it.

FFVII characters are pansies compared to FFIV's, and that's despite the fact that Cecil has the mane of a pretty pony.

Oh, and this match basically confirms for me that any FFVIII character not named Squall wouldn't be worth anything. Squall is a big exception to the rule, looks like, though that doesn't surprise me. FFVIII revolves around Squall in a way that few games do.

Still want to see one though!

shadow hearts? no I didn't play the first one.
KamikazePotato | Posted 5/28/2009 10:13:59 PM | message detail
1. Vault Boy isn't a *character*, for one. He's like...a logo-lite.
2. Fallout is not a character-driven game, either.
3. I've never, ever seen anyone express nearly as much love for Vault Boy as...say, Cube. Not even close.
4. Fallout isn't *that* popular around here.

People just wouldn't vote for him.

Play Shadow Hearts 1 if you can. It isn't 100% necessary, but it makes SH2 that much better, and is almost as good as 2 (although most would disagree there).

http://thengamer.com/guru/
LeonhartFour | Posted 5/28/2009 10:14:02 PM | message detail
Shadow Hearts 1 used is more expensive than 2? I thought 2 was generally agreed to be the better game.

And the third one is there, too. Worthwhile?

I bet FFVIII Cid wins due to apathy. Nobody really hate him but nobody really cares about him either, but Tingle will just get anti voted to hell

I'm telling you. The Robin Williams vote, guys! It's real!

What famous celebrity does Tingle look like? Not Robin Williams!

...I don't think so anyway.

ZFS | Posted 5/28/2009 10:16:20 PM | message detail
SH1 is rarer than SH2, despite SH2 being regarded as the better game. It's not entirely necessary -- if you could only play one and not the other, you can get by with SH2 alone -- but they're both connected and make each other better, story-wise.

SH3 is good fun, but it's something you'd do way after you play the first two.
