CC seems to be pretty independent here so I'd take that since it can do pretty well.

CC and FFX were released only about a year apart. Even if they were on different consoles, it's hard to believe there wouldn't be any LFF at all.

Alaska didn't even have any votes during the board vote at all, but Hawaii did.

Then explain how its doing so well? This seems more like CCs base strength, not a SFF'd version of it.

I just don't think CC deserves it the same way those three do if you're looking at strength. Besides, I'd take G/S to do some damage here considering how hard it was to hurt Pokemon-games, this being a ten-way poll, and it naturally being just a little weaker than MGS.

Still 0 votes for MW2 from Ohio

We gave MW2 like 43% in the last poll what the hell?

Eh, doesn't seem like anything interesting is going to happen. CC's only beating SFFed Nintendo games, Brawl's way too held back to challenge RE4, and I don't see MW2 holding up against GTA:SA.

At least I can sleep earlyish.

San Andreas and Brawl take a hit, MW2 may take third.

Also all of Germany is still supporting San Andreas.

We should take nothing from this poll.

I don't think anyone really is.

That said hail CC and FFX (not that there was any doubt it would be winning this)

It might actually have some strength. I can't really prove it though since the only other non-ancient poll with Chrono Cross is shared with FF9.

Yeah, FF9 doubled CC, then FF8 smashed FF9, and we've seen FFX beat or outdo FF8 in various polls. CC got lucky with the reviews...!

Seriously, Pokemon G/S would be kickin' ass here in comparison.

Seems like Alaska got some votes. By the percentages for Alaska, I'm guessing there were 2 votes, but it could have been 4 votes or any other multiple of 2.

Also, Chrono Cross looks like it may end up getting tripled by FFX, so it's not really surprising by looking strong. If MW2 is failing in this poll, it just shows you how weak the 2009 field was.

I will gladly support you in arguing that Mario is weaker than most people in this topic think he is. Not going to go quite that far though.

Yeah, MW2 probably has the least overlap over the other games, even San Andreas had PS2 overlap with FFX.

I don't think that should affect its asv. The kind of people who vote in the ASV for MW2 and Nintendo games are probably different.
