I would take MGS over TP at this point. Well Ill be Venusaur does have a slightly higher Base hp than Toise Attention to detail just means one less little thing for people to whine about. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |

So you think MGS is at the level of Brawl and TP? Always have. --- Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |

I
don't want to say anything about MGS, but it beating FF8 that
comfortably means it has to be close to #10 on the list. I still think
MGS is the strongest Metal Gear by far. MGS4 could have been if Konami
didn't have their heads in their ass by releasing it on the Sega Saturn

I don't have a problem thinking MGS is that high. I think it can beat TP. Not sure it beats Brawl though. --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |

RE4
can come close to TP in some situations and is practically even with
MGS3. MGS1 beating TP definitely doesn't feel weird. MGS3 > >
MGS1 would be like "lol wut" to me --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

I
actually think TP and Brawl are overperforming somewhat this round, for
whatever reason. TP going from barely beating RE4 to winning 57-43 says
something happened in this round or last- my guess is it's this round.
Call it Mature Game LFF, Stand Out Factor, or whatever you like. As for
MGS, after seeing it beat FF8 soundly and put up 35% on OOT, I have no
problem with it beating Melee or FFX either, though I don't think I'd
actually go for the upset there. --- Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |
LeonhartFour | Posted 6/1/2009 3:17:05 PM | message detail |
It's
not mature game LFF. Oblivion did much better relative to MGS3 than
last round. It's just weirdness with MGS and RE, just like we've seen
with FF and MGS in the past (which makes me think FFX has the advantage
next round. Yes, you can argue that RBY stands up to OoT, but you just
can't deny the possibility that FFVIII's presence cost MGS the win. You
may not think that's what happened, but you can't deny the possibility
it did. FFX possibly being stronger than MGS to begin with and not
having a game that can potentially hinder it there gives it the edge
there, I think). --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |

I
was on the RE4 board a lot and I did see an abnormally high amount of
people always praise MGS3 there. Like, I never saw any other game
mentioned on that board except MGS3, and quite often. I never knew what
the deal was. I never really thought anything of it but maybe there is
some weird connection X_X --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

red sox 777 | Posted 6/1/2009 3:26:02 PM | message detail |
FFX
has a great chance of advancing, and indeed, RBY probably needs a
bandwagon to make it here unless FFX is actually a fair bit weaker than
MGS. I've always accepted FF/MGS overlap, and have never needed one of
our "standard reasons" to believe in the possibility of LFF. Two games
need share nothing other than disproportionate overlap in their
fanbases to LFF. RBY also has a great shot, however. I'd put it at something like 45-45-10 (with 10 being Melee's chances). --- Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |

Well
it seems that Brawl is recovering some % but you're right, with this
showing it's unlikely that it could challenge OOT and FF7, yet you
never know what can happen. Pokemon RBY seems to be the main wildcarder of this contest. Its shown potential but unless it can pull off a major upset and off FFX then it likely won't make enough noise. If RBY somehow does pull it off and defeats FFX, could it reach the final match? --- "If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it.

Brawl
is displaying much more balanced trends than is typical for Smash
today. Its night vote was bad but not horrid, and its ASV doesn't look
like top 2 in the contest. I wonder how many schools are on vacation
now? --- Link he come to town to win the Gamefaqs Contests. |

If
RBY manages to beat FFX and TP and Brawl manage to have enough inherit
strength that both advance over RE4 and MGS4, we'd see an epic
all-Nintendo semi-final. It's ridiculously unlikely, but having
semifinals where 7/8 games are Nintendo would be rich. As is, they've got 11/16 of the quarterfinals. --- Wylvane's current main account. |

really dig KP's pic; it's not his fault FFX's menu isn't as
cool/recognizable as the other three, and I still think it looks decent
enough. It's a neat similarity between the games, too. --- BT > Harrich lol me |

There's
barely enough room to make the character names legible. Shoehorning in
the character icons isn't going to help that, and I would prefer to
leave it as it is in the game regardless. Save screen...I'll think on it. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |

You
know if you were going to be fair with the menu theme, you'd have Brawl
in an options menu, not the character select screen. Yeah, it's boring,
but with this theme it's the only not boring one. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
KamikazePotato | Posted 6/1/2009 5:33:06 PM | message detail |
Let's not get carried away. The Melee options menu is far worse than a somewhat boring FFX menu screen. I said I'd think on the save screen. I'm not going to rush and do it now because I just finished making another pic that I haven't posted yet due to the Mario-fest up there taking everyone's attention, so I'm a little burnt out. --- http://thengamer.com/guru/ |

The Melee options menu is far worse than a somewhat boring FFX menu screen. Not really. The FFX menu screen is about the most boring thing ever. I mean, it may be slightly so but uhhh... yeah. Kinda bad theme in general though, sorry to say <_< I'm just sayin... it's not much more boring than the other three and it's more in theme. It's certainly less lopsided than the pic right now, where Melee is the only one that has a serviceable picture. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

Tomorrows match should be interesting. We got 3 Mario games and one Zelda. Now Zelda couldn't have asked for a better situation than this. 3 mario games that will be hurting each other so Zelda can advance again. The main question here is which mario game goes on with Zelda? SMB1 is not likely as its shown to be the weakest of the 3 mario games here. SMB3 and SMW are the main competitors for 2nd. Both SMB3 and SMW are special games to many gamers as both were great, so it will be a difficult decision for many voters once this match begins. For me i'm learning towards SMB3 a little more than SMW although weve that SMW is capable of putting up quite a fight. What would really shock us would be SMB3 and SMW somehow sharing enough votes to not SFF each and get more votes than Zelda knocking her out, but at this point in the contest that's just plain wishful thinking.
