2nd pic is pretty good although i question using Captain Falcon to represent Brawl when Olimar could do better.

Harsh words....

I'll admit my picture could have used more work, but all the pics I've submitted this contest didn't get as much time as I wanted for fine tuning. Lack of time on my hands thats all.

Is it the visual quality or just don't like the characters? Since it's a games contest I opted to use characters that aren't link snake etc. to have the spotlight.

Well KP i must question your use of Captain Falcon to represent Brawl when one of the newcomers like Olimar could do better (Falcon Punch is pretty old)

If you had to pick one character that's the representation of Smash, it's C-Falc. Either him or Master Hand, I guess.

What's wrong with 2? He's accepted a similar picture the last time you used it. Also you left them all as P1 again. <_<

Well, Agent M, it just seems too messy. There's no order - I can't say I personally like throwing the four villains in the middle of the picture (I usually like the entrants clearly divided). Also, it's way too dark, which makes it too difficult to tell things apart.

I'm cool with the SSBB-pic -- any time you're a Nintendo game facing LoZ:OoT, you're allowed one pic to have a theme in your favor!

should have made ssbb's rep toon link

Well, character selection doesn't work as well when the entrants are non-characters. Also, while this is a low-volume point for this particular match, it's terribly biased for one of the games. Can you imagine if a FFVII vs. OoT picture favored one of the two that much? There'd be whining from here to high noon.

Toon Link?! Bad idea.......

You saw what happened to Wind Waker, Toon Link would guarantee Brawl to be in 4th place......

After seeing Melee vs. OoT, I don't think anyone cares if Brawl has a massive pic advantage.

I really hope there is one thats obviously biased. Like Sephiroths sword through Link or something

Hmm....LTTP is outdoing its percentage from last round here. LFF'd Mario World + LFF'd Mario 3 < LFF'd Mario 64 + SFF'd FFVI?

It's getting less on FFVII though, so it balances out.

hochiminhX | Posted 6/6/2009 8:26:21 PM | message detail
FFVI leeched LTTP via Same Console LFF last round. LFF from SMW is being negated this round by a combination of LPF, SFF and SPF. Hence why LTTP increased its percent.

30 minutes until FFX and MGS4 split so bad that Brawl advances despite OoT SFF!

While not as good as actual characters, I think the concept still works fine for games. You are right that it is really biased, though.

HaRRicH | Posted 6/6/2009 8:33:54 PM | message detail
You know, the box art could have fit in fairly easily instead of characters for that pic. It wouldn't have been as true to the SSBB-theme, but it may have looked pretty cool and avoided this little controversy.

That's okay, SPF is a joke; meaning Second Playthrough Factor. Somehow it always predicts that FFVII will triumph and Zelda will collapse.
