Vincent
may have the worst pic of the lot, but his doesn't *matter*. Big Daddy
is probably the most screwed relative to his chances, but obviously I'm
not complaining there because I'm a hypocrite and have Ness winning. ...also I really don't care about that boring-ass match. There's a reason why Vincent/Ganondorf 2k6 was one of the most anticipated matches of that entire contest despite it being only a R1 match. We like to see our heavy-hitters go at it. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/1ryijd.jpg http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

Vincent
is annoying to make pictures for. He has one pic from FF7, a bunch of
cartoony fan art and Advent Children stuff that's difficult to crop
out. I'd rather deal with light sabres than realistic hair. --- `·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´`·.,¸¸,.·´ If anyone is fit to shine, it is I. |

I
think Terra's is by far the worst. Or at least the weirdest. I'm
scouring Google and I cannot for the life of me find where that's from. --- `·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´`·.,¸¸,.·´ You're not a good person. You know that, right? |

I
am not new,I am here from 2002 and take part in the contests since
2003.but I found very strange that some people vote based on a
picture.Also I find it very strange that some people decide if they
want to buy a game based on reviews.It doesn't make sense.But hey
opinions so... --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |

From: Hochimihnister | #105 People are just upset GANON's sunglasses pic wasn't used, and sorry but that's a legitimate complaint: http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/8052/cloudmp.jpg Cloud would have won the board vote for the first time since 2002. --- `·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´`·.,¸¸,.·´ Make me a perfect lie. |

From: Karma Hunter | #091 Nah, I'm just glad that Ryu isn't heaVILY disadvantaged. Fair pic. Actually, maybe a slight advantage to Dante because he does look more badass. The biggest disappoint is Cloud's pic. That's just a shame. --- Yoblazer: http://i38.tinypic.com/2s024p4.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

And
actually, I'm feeling pretty good about Daddy's pic (very relieved). I
thought he'd look horrible; instead, he just looks genuinely
frightening and it sets up a HUGE contrast with Ness, maybe the biggest
picture contrast ever. --- Yoblazer: http://i38.tinypic.com/2s024p4.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

I
don't understand.If Cloud had a picture with sunglasses then he should
do better?Then have this pic for his match with either Missingno(if
Sephiroth beats Missingno he shall lose to Cloud anyways)or Link! --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |

I
think Vincent (and Snake especially!) had awesome pictures, but the
filter just ruined it. Big Daddy... well, it's probably the best he
could get considering the format! --- http://i48.tinypic.com/1ryijd.jpg http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

Yeah, the filter screwed a ton of good pictures. The full 140x150 version of that Vincent pic is amazing. --- ·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´`·.,¸¸,.· Hey, it's that dog! |

I don't understand.If Cloud had a picture with sunglasses then he should do better? Cloud loses the board vote even if its a picture of Jesus Christ. My Cloud picture is a manly picture of him. The sunglasses one should be saved for later rounds. |

Oh, and for the reasons why Dante is screwed: Imagine, if you will, that Mario or Link received a CD-i pic. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

Ryu looks like a goof. Dante has the more badass picture. |

I'm
honestly surprised Bacon chose purple for my Ezio. Of all the gradients
I submitted... Purple? I only made it to have the whole rainbow because
I'm OCD like that. Also my Zelda looked better in yellow or red, but I
guess light blue isn't the worse he could have picked. --- (|| ' ' ||) Visio Vestri - Character Battle VIII Fanfiction Project . /|_|\ http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=53091233 |

L-Block
or Missingno must win this contest. I am sick of seeing Link or some
idiotic Final Fantasy character take the top position. Such overrated
franchises...it hurts me. |
PartOfYourWorld | Posted 2/25/2010 5:42:29 PM | message detail |
That
picture just has a bad rep because Dante had it when he flubbed against
Yoshi. I don't see anything wrong with it; it's Dante, and he looks all
brooding and badass. It's not like this site really gives a crap about
which game the picture is from; all of Dante's games wouldn't be worth
crap on GameFAQs. --- Yoblazer: http://i38.tinypic.com/2s024p4.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

That picture has a bad rep because it's of Devil May Cry 2 Dante. DMC2 is one of the most reviled big-name games to come out in years, and Dante utterly sucked in it. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

the more I think about it, the more Pic Turd Of The Round goes to Big

Really,
Vincents pic is basically a gun unless you look hard, and the average

To
be honest, that pic might be better for him. As it stood,he was gonna
get SFF'd into looking like fodder anyway. At least a few voters can be
like, " lol a gun" and vote for him. --- -Heals severely dry skin -18 hour moisturization -Fragrance free -With Vitamin E |

It
sucks that Terra is going to get SFF blasted by Squall - we don't get
any hints on how much Dissidia helped her, or how strong Revan really
is. From: UltimaterializerX | #508 This is so awesome. That needs to be busted out for the final! From: MyWorldIsCrono | #609 Yeah, you can't even see him. The concept is pretty good - gun pointed straight at you. But it looks odd. Thankfully that's pretty much the match in which the pic is most irrelevant, Vincent dies brutally no matter what. Though I do think he's going to resist SFF better than most expect (well at least I did anyway, before seeing the pic). --- gamefaqscontests.com gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

And
it looks odd because of the filter. But I knew going in that people
complain about EVERY single picture, no matter how good. I tempered
myself to it before I got even my first picture accepted. --- "There are no fingerprints deep under water, nothing to tie one to a crime And if you seek vengeance, all you need are instruments of pain." -Dethklok |

Yeah
I think the dante pic is fine, its not like you cant recognize who it
is (cover of a game). And I actually really like Vincent's gun in yo
face pic. Big daddy needs all the help he can get imo. I would scour the internet for a "better" pic (one probably doesnt exist though given daddy's proportions) but I'm at work and am absolutely mortified of what "big daddy" would conjure up in google images. The submitted pic kind of looks like the face of a spider. I guess its kind of cool. --- Name: Flex FC: 4510 7199 0698 |

I
actually think Big Daddy looks awesome, personally. Though Ness
actually has a good picture for once, so he'll probably make a match
out of it. --- Heavy should have made it to Round Two. Just saying. |

I
tried to get in several pics that weren't super face close-ups. All of
them were rejected. That's the best Big Daddy can get using Bacon's
method of choosing. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

I can't even see Vincent in his pic, even when I look hard. No
