Since FFXIII's already out there, fact.

Is it really? I mean, it's out in Japan... But people in the Philippines has as much use of that version as we do seeing as they can't read Japanese in general. And if it is released in the Philippines, why the hell aren't people importing it cause you know, it would be in English then. I'm gonna say no, it's definitely not released in most of Asia...

With that said, I'm thinking Lightning has a good chance of beating Sonic in Asia still...

Pretty awesome that Bacon used my Luigi, my Ammy, and my Knuckles (Take that, Ulti! He used my red Knux on red background!).


You're good at these pics for a beginner.

Heh, Bacon actually did a bit of work on my Luigi and my Knuckles pics to make them a bit more presentable. I can tell a difference.

FFVII beat OOT 85-15 in the Phillipines, so really, Lightning could probably beat the whole Noble Nine except for Cloud and Sephiroth without the game even coming out there.

Also, I think Uncharted 2 would be doing a lot worse here (and MW2 looks pretty bad to begin with). I'm guessing many people jumped on its train to anti-vote MW2 and because it got legit "game of the generation" talk. Put it up against this gauntlet, and I wouldn't be surprised if it were losing to Prime.

Look at the boost Mario Galaxy got because of recency. Even going beyond GotY voting, 2009 has to be the single weakest gaming year since CJayC created GameFAQs.

If you've got Ryu beating Dante, there's no reason you shouldn't have him beating Leon since, you know, Dante beat Leon three times.

Ryu/Leon happens in the sprite round. I'd love to have it as an extreme risk, but taking Leon there (against either Dante or Ryu) is suicide.

Even though I was one of the main 4way supporters, I gotta say its good to finally have our first 1v1 since 2006. I'm really looking forward to seeing how the strengths of the characters in 1v1 go... Most of our arguements are based on 4ways and thats pretty sketchy. This is pretty exciting since it'll be our first somewhat unpredictable 1v1 in a long time

Which is strange given how ridiculously successful Mario has been this generation. NSMBW is putting forth ridiculous numbers right now.

I'm really second guessing my Red>MMX pick right now... It seems that it's kind of a mistake... But I'll probably end up sticking with it anyways.... ALso, how far does everyone have the cube going? Beating Sandal but losing to Drake?

It's not the most unlikely upset out there, but X is definitely the favorite.

Cube > Sandal, Drake > Cube. For the record, I also have Fawful > GlaDOS; I'm kind of betting on a Portal decline, I guess.

Don't think he has had a fair shake. He went up against all RPG characters and one of them was the main character of another Square game from their biggest franchise, the same game that's currently beating Chrono Cross into a bloody pulp all things considered. I'm sure he could do better if given a chance.

FF10 has to be the most overrated game on this site thanks to multiway polls. first it makes the final match and now it dominates a game of the decade poll. you'd think it was a top 5 game if you didn't know how these things worked.

I feel like MW2 is going to be a huge day vote and surge into third place. dunno why.

I think it can; not too far behind San Andreas and Brawl at the moment. Regardless, with its recency and just how little it overlaps with anything else in the poll, it would still look pretty lousy.
