creative,
is there any way to break down the updater into like 15 minute
timeframes or by the hour instead of just looking at it per 5 minutes? --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

This
update was the largest lead CT had before the ASV killed it. Sure it
doesn't officially start until 3pm, but this next 30 minutes are
important. Not looking good though. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/BGE2%20BOP.xls BGE2 - Today's Match: LoZ: OoT > MGS Points: 219/320 |

Didn't stay over 100 long. At this rate, MGS won't have the lead long either. --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

If by not looking good you mean looking great, than SURE. Pokemon is a better game than MGS, and should rightfully destroy it in about a half hour. --- DO YOU REALIZE THAT JACK BAUER JUST KILLED 3 MEN WHILE HANDCUFFED, BAREHANDED, DISEASED, DRUGGED AFTER HAVING A NEEDLE STUCK IN HIS NECK??? |

Probably not, because CT stalled out a few times early on, too. It happens. --- http://www.court-records.net/animation/phoenix-superobjection.gif |

PartOfYourWorld | Posted 5/29/2009 12:04:55 PM | message detail |
Actually,
next round should be the second in a row where FFVII looks more
impressive than OoT. FFX should really galvanize that
Square/non-Nintendo support, Pokemon has no reason to collapse after
not collapsing here, and it's hard to imagine Melee pulling in the
distant fourth place. --- Meeks54's sig for a stupid pick that had no chance. I even had it coming in first. MWC>Yo Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be.....LIKE MWC!!! |
KamikazePotato | Posted 5/29/2009 12:06:07 PM | message detail |
There's no way FFX chokes this one away. Considering RBY is beating FF8 with room to spare...who's to say? --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |
transience | Posted 5/29/2009 12:06:52 PM | message detail |
FF8's cutting MGS now. after that hideous beginning it really doesn't look that bad. --- xyzzy |
PartOfYourWorld | Posted 5/29/2009 12:08:16 PM | message detail |
From: KamikazePotato | #078 Which Nintendo game gets left behind, though? Fans have to basically abandon Melee; hard to see this happening. And even then, FFX is in an excellent position. It's an even more "non-Nintendo" option than FFVI was. --- Meeks54's sig for a stupid pick that had no chance. I even had it coming in first. MWC>Yo Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be.....LIKE MWC!!! |
PartOfYourWorld | Posted 5/29/2009 12:09:07 PM | message detail |
I think FFVIII would give either of these games a fight 1v1. One game just had to get abandoned. --- Meeks54's sig for a stupid pick that had no chance. I even had it coming in first. MWC>Yo Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be.....LIKE MWC!!! |
KamikazePotato | Posted 5/29/2009 12:09:14 PM | message detail |
Yeah,
but I still don't take FFX to beat FF8 by any sort of wide margin. For
it to win, it's going to have to prove itself tomorrow. Melee is
probably going to stand up to OoT almost as well (if not as well) as
RBY is. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |
KamikazePotato | Posted 5/29/2009 12:11:19 PM | message detail |
Not
buying the whole Nintendo split thing after we saw FF4 completely fail
to capitalize on 2 Mario games and 1 Sonic game in the poll. Especially
since we've seen Pokemon and SSB resists SFF. Unless FFX gets close to Melee tonight, I probably consider Melee the favorite. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |
PartOfYourWorld | Posted 5/29/2009 12:12:14 PM | message detail |
From: KamikazePotato | #082 Which is a really good sign for FFX. The more those two split, the better its chances. --- Meeks54's sig for a stupid pick that had no chance. I even had it coming in first. MWC>Yo Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be.....LIKE MWC!!! |

You
know, I think Pokemon RBY is the star of this contest. Every single
match it's been in has been exciting and almost impossible to predict.
It could even finish second next round against Melee/FFX! --- Good Times, Great Memories |
transience | Posted 5/29/2009 12:13:30 PM | message detail |
I'm kinda siding with KP here. I don't see why FFX is suddenly way stronger than FF8 when we were debating the two a month ago. --- xyzzy |
UltimaterializerX | Posted 5/29/2009 12:15:39 PM | message detail |
This
format is so damn annoying. I wouldn't mind MGS losing to Pokemon 1v1
because they're both great games, but this isn't at all a legitimate
loss. Take FF8 out, MGS wins. Take OOT out, Pokemon wins. This format
is ****ing terrible and decides nothing. --- `·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´`·.,¸¸,.·´ "You are the king of derailing topics, by the way." -Lucid |
KamikazePotato | Posted 5/29/2009 12:16:08 PM | message detail |
I'm
not buying RBY splitting to a good degree with...anything other than
GS, really. Remember that Pokemon isn't just a Nintendo game. It
transcended that. It came out when there wasn't a Nintendo handheld and
a Sony handheld, there was just the Game Boy. It sold 30 million
copies. Damn near everyone played it. It's going to affect FFX too. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |
ZFS | Posted 5/29/2009 12:16:27 PM | message detail |
FFX has always been stronger than FFVIII. I'm not sure when we suddenly flipped on this. --- http://i41.tinypic.com/30djz83.gif |
XxSoulxX | Posted 5/29/2009 12:16:43 PM | message detail |
FFX is much stronger then FF8. With that said, the only games I see finishing in second next round is FFX or Pokemon. I can't see Melee doing anything with OoT there. Console Nintendo SFF is dangerous, especially with OoT in there. --- Good Times, Great Memories |

is ****ing terrible and decides nothing. We already knew Pokemon is stronger then MGS since round 1. The only way MGS would beat RBY in the following rounds would be using SFF/LFF (which it did last round). Don't really see the point in complaining about it now... --- Good Times, Great Memories |
KamikazePotato | Posted 5/29/2009 12:19:09 PM | message detail |
FFX
is stronger than FF8, but by how much? RBY currently has 54.8% on FF8,
and that's only going to look worse by the end of the match. Would you
take FFX to 55-45 FF8 before SFF? Possible, yeah, but also debatable. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |
transience | Posted 5/29/2009 12:19:37 PM | message detail |
FFX
is stronger but not by a whole lot. I don't want to rely on a split to
push FFX on when, y'know, that's failed time and time again. --- xyzzy |

Diablo

anything is awesome! --- "Calling Pokemon RBY a top 10 game was the most insane contest jibba-jabba ever Woe unto he who sig bets with the near-invincible Lord High creativename |
ZFS | Posted 5/29/2009 12:23:00 PM | message detail |
Why wouldn't
you? FFX and FFVIII aren't tied at the hip, they never were. We've had
every reason to think that FFX is the stronger game between the two,
including having seen it in the last contest where it put up 49% on
Melee. Round 1 looked better than FFVIII, and it did in round 2, too,
despite KH getting close to it. --- http://i41.tinypic.com/30djz83.gif |
