And I say this as someone who played LBP and wasn't blown away by it. I'd vote for Sackboy over most, even if I don't think all that
highly of the game. Sackboy's appeal definitely extends beyond one's
enjoyment of his game -- it's why he got into the contest before LBP
came out in the first place. --- the journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step |

Do
we have any notable remakes this year? The only ones I saw this year
from the GotY-polls we've covered so far was LBP and the
GoW-collection...we'll probably see the MP-trilogy and Punch-Out too if
that counts. Will there be enough for a Remake-GotY this year? I hope not. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

Is Charizard>Duke the consensus or what? Yes, but you could debate the opposite. And how far does everyone have Soap going? I have him losing to Ness... Most people have him losing in round 1. Though if you have him over Big Daddy Ness isn't too far off either. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Submit bracket here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=52670380 |

It would mean Red really is equal to Crono......Post-CTDS Crono that is! Anyway, I will laugh so hard if Magus ends up being Link's toughest competition before the semifinals. Thrall, MMX or Red, Luigi, Sonic.....all characters the King of SFF can go to town on. Plus the x-stats would show us Magus > Sonic again! --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

Psh, now that CTDS is out, Magus is now proxy-Nintendo! Enjoy your 15%, Magus! Ah, but since CT was first on the SNES, it was already Nintendo-related! Clearly the original Magus/Link overperformance was the result of rSFF. With even more of a connection now that CT is out on 2 Nintendo systems, the rSFF will be more than twice as large, and Magus will be breaking 40% this time! --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

Dammit guys, stop assuming Magus makes it to Link. Bad things happen when stuff like that is taken for granted. That said, if Alucard was Link's toughest competition, that would be pretty awesome. Also Wolf Alucard vs. Wolf Link make it happen --- http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g320/HowDisturbing/stayawhile.jpg Stay a while and breathe me in. |

My Most Anticipated Matches: 4. Sonic/Ganondorf The most hyped match from 2006 returns, with the Twilight Princess release having come and gone, and Sonic having fallen off a cliff. Both characters look a lot worse than they did in 2006 now. Then, Vincent beat Ganon with 52% and was beaten by Sonic with 52% in turn. This is the single best chance for the Noble Nine to be broken this year. 3. Sephiroth/Snake This is objectively the most important match of the year barring anything shocking happening like Square announcing the FFVII remake during the contest and making Link/Cloud competitive again. The Noble Nine rules the contest field, and Clinkeroth towers above the rest of the Noble Nine. Every year, the lower Noble Nine set out and strive against each other for the right to challenge Sephiroth and enter the ranks of Clinkeroth, but none has yet defeated him. Snake has, over the past 3 years, particularly the last one, earned the right to face Sephiroth more than any other. He probably has a better chance of defeating him than ever a challenger had before. Can he do it? 2. Pokemon Trainer Red/Mega Man X It's been fun debating and hyping Red for the past few months. Now it's time to see him deliver. Also, strong newcomers make for interesting matches, and while X isn't a newcomer, he's never been in a proper 1v1 before so he may as well be for all we know of his strength. 1. Crono/Sephiroth Because when it comes down to it, the character I care about above all others is Crono, and the match in which Crono loses is almost always going to be the most important match of the year for me. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

The most hyped match from 2006 returns For all those silly Ganon > Vincent pickers anyway! --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |
red sox 777 | Posted 1/5/2010 8:54:49 PM | message detail |
Indeed.
But despite Vincent deserving to be the favorite, and proving it by
winning, Sonic/Ganon was the most talked about match before the
contest! I wish Heroic Mario would make picks like that again......he
always managed to get quite a few people to follow him on his
bandwagons, and it made for very intereting discussion. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |
