Chun-Li should be doing better, I mean where's the love people? Plus SF4 is hot right now. That said, while I'm always fighting for fighting game characters, I do think Sol Badguy is a pretty funny nomination. I've played with his character plenty of times, but he just doesn't really stand out as a character notable enough to nominate. --- One Piece: Pirates with style! -= Metal Gear Solid: Tactical Espionage Action =- |

street fighter IV had to contend with persona 4 and GTA4, 4 ways, there was too much LFF of the number 4. --- Shakes Fist! |

Four
can't be divided evenly by three games without fractions and we're
using percentages, so that makes sense. GTA4 must have gotten the
lion's share because it had the most words in its title. --- Please nominate DOC LOUIS from Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! T E A M C H O C O L A T E |

From: Psycho_Kenshin | Posted: 12/11/2009 2:18:02 PM | #055 On Board 8, maybe. The game lost to Persona 4, isn't going anywhere any time soon, and most importantly it's a god-awful game. Capcom, scammers that they are, are already starting up with the Super Street Fighter 4 Tournament of the World Champion's EX Subtitle Genesic Edition Plus Plus +A 14 ^ n crap. --- `·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´`·.,¸¸,.·´ You're not a good person.

Psycho_Kenshin | Posted 12/11/2009 1:38:20 PM | message detail |
Well,
that's your way of looking it at. For a lot of fighting game fans it's
a great one, and again many hardcore would buy a new Street Fighter
update every year if they kept releasing them. I know I would, love the
genre, love the series. --- One Piece: Pirates with style! -= Metal Gear Solid: Tactical Espionage Action =- |
red sox 777 | Posted 12/11/2009 1:40:22 PM | message detail |
Yeah,
contest-wise, I wouldn't expect much from the SF cast after SF4 lost to
Persona 4. I don't think they are what they used to be. --- Link he come to town to dominate all other characters and trample them down with his sword of more votes. |

I just thought that like 5 minutes ago too. But only winning by 7 votes

From: KleenexTissue50 | Posted: 12/11/2009 4:41:14 PM | #073 Persona 4 totally won in spirit. If you need a last second rally to keep yourself from last place against PERSONA 4 (a game that sold about 16 copies) in a fourway poll, you've lost. And oh no, wasting 40 dollars instead of 60. I'm sure the scammers at Capcom care about this minute difference. --- `·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´`·.,¸¸,.·´ http://www.instantrimshot.com/ |

"Do you buy all the DLC, too? rofl" I don't get why buying an updates Street Fighter annually yearly would be so hilarious. People do it with wrestling games, racing games, etc. And me, I get so much enjoyment and hours out of SF4 that getting a new version with a bunch of new characters every year would be well worth the price. Six more characters announced already, and of course tweaks, new moves, etc. But since you don't like SF4, I can see why you'd look at it the way you do. --- One Piece: Pirates with style! -= Metal Gear Solid: Tactical Espionage Action =- |

On
the other hand, SF4's 7-vote win over Persona 4 did win creativename a
sig-bet......which he used to make fun of the idea that RBY was a top
10 game, before it became clear to everyone that it was indeed a top 10
game. Everyone lost? --- Link he come to town to dominate all other characters and trample them down with his sword of more votes. |

As
far as SF4 nearly losing to Persona 4, that's not too much of a
surprise. GameFAQs has a very narrow taste in games -- if it isn't
Nintendo or Square, you're gonna have it pretty rough. Action games and
fighting games, in particular, don't resonate well with the sort of
audience that hangs around here. --- the journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step |

being
disappointed in yourself and getting all overly emotional over it to
not even call yourself by your own name sounds very emo to me! Squall didn't get "overly emotional" about it. When does Squall get overly emotional about anything? Eh, people just have a very broad definition of what "emo" means, I guess! Of course, by that definition, anytime anyone gets upset, he's emo! Which means nearly every character ever created is emo! --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |
