I didn't know Yuna had a brooding badass picture. :P

But yeah, there's other art that might've done better. Wouldn't have made her win the match, but still.

Do you think Yuna would do better with a brooding bad-ass picture?


I need some examples here.

I would start looking for pictures from X-2 if you want a more badass picture of Yuna.

I think the picture of her in a short skirt with a gun might have worked better.

The bonus mansion cutscene is one of my favorites in gaming.

This is truth. I love that scene, and Zack would be one of my favorites in the series (and was even before Crisis Core and Advent Children) with that scene alone.

From: voltch | #344
it's the wrong contrast though, gloomy/cheerful looks are a nice contrast sure, but geez, flip it, to be more in character.


Neither character is gloomy though.

Zack got that pic last year. He does have some non-gloomy ones. I don't think Yuna has a "brooding" one though.

The point ws that Yuna's not really a gloomy kind of character...and even if she was, given that Zack's more popular anyway, it wouldn't be wise for her to try competing with him in the brooding-appeal.

Well, we've seen Mega Man beat Cid, Kirby beat Rikku, and Zack beat Yuna now...and Aeris is likely in that tier of FF-characters. How badly does Auron need to beat Aeris for you to give him a shot against Squall? How about to call him the favorite?

What Auron does to Aerith probably doesn't mean a whole lot. If he beats her badly, we just chalk it up to SFF and it doesn't matter. Even if he beats her worse than Squall did, it's a different format, and SFF and LFF are different things.

Of course its still hated. Just because we might not see it in 4ways due to lacking the abiltiy to antivote doesn't mean its not there. Obviously, its not 2002-2003 level, but Pikachu doesn't go from nearly losing to Parappa the Rapper from anti votes to not getting anti voted at all.

Oh yeah, different format, no doubt, but it's worth bringing up since they have that common opponent. Either way, if Aeris is in that range of characters and Auron's supposed to be able to give the likes of Mega Man a fight, then Auron should be able to get ~37% on Aeris before SFF...if he pushes her down much from there, that would be quite the pounding.

Thats what I'm talking about. ME2 seems to have a Halo 3 kinda marketing budget. Hype is massive. They bought out 2:30 minute ad time in the middle of the NFL Conference Championship games. Thats similiar to what Halo 3 and MW2 did... I haven't seen any other game have that kinda advertising budget. People should watch out for Shepard, he is going to get a massive boost if the hype surrounding ME2 is even anywhere close to Halo 3.

Also, just realized we get our first Hayabusa/MC-comparisons tomorrow...does Hayabusa need to match MC's 2004-performance on Crash?

http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=1731

29.28% isn't an easy number to match, especially with Crash looking okay in four-ways in recent years...though we've never seen him do well one-on-one. It's also six years old at this point.

Shep's very lucky that he gets an easy R1 win and like three weeks to let his sequel build a fanbase before Pikachu. He wasn't Nathan Drake-level atrocious in 2008, but his 27% on Sonic still seems pretty dang bad. If ME2 lives up to the reviewer hype and if Pikachu does deflate in 1v1, I can see it happening, but it's still a big longshot.

Considering Luigi beat Pikachu, you're right, you shouldn't take Pikachu over Luigi. MC also had the benefit of having Pika or Ganon in both of the matches he faced Luigi, so that's not a fair comparison at all.

2K6 Zelda, who looked pretty beastly, got 57% on Yuna. I'd expect the Square near elites to get around that or a bit higher before SFF.
