A favourites poll doesn't have to go the way of the x-stats, remember the Mario series poll? --- Calintares made a whole lot of geolocation x-stats Congrats to Dr. Football for winning the Guru. |

Yeah,
again, I wouldn't take this to mean much in a contest setting. Wesker
isn't more popular, or even on the same level, as Leon. MvC3 is just a
game where you would want to see someone like Wesker over Leon.
It just makes sense, especially when Chris is already filling the role
as the 'main character with a gun.' --- one generation plants the trees, another enjoys the shade |
THEDavyJones | Posted 4/23/2010 11:57:13 AM | message detail |
From: charmander6000 | #301 This poll seems pretty close to actual xstats to me outside of Leon, and he has reasons to not do as well; SFF from Dante and Wesker and already having Chris in the contest. So I woudn't say its totally useless. --- http://i39.tinypic.com/u8vp5.jpg http://hitherewhatsnew.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/pope_looks_like_palpatine_02.jpg |

this
is doubling up as a who do you think would win in a fight kinda poll
and yes Phoenix could totally kick Wesker's ass in a fight. --- Dr_Football wrecked my bracket with his awesome goals. |

From: THEDavyJones | #299 More like I just want to see how Phoenix would actually play in a fighting game. --- http://i43.tinypic.com/dgwh0.gif http://www.majhost.com/gallery/atukam/OHWD/snownd.gif |

Oh man, 3D PHOENIX, like can you imagine the trailer, like give him an epic one like the teaser where he takes on Thor's hammer. --- Dr_Football wrecked my bracket with his awesome goals. |

I
just found out that maps were generated for some of the GotY polls this
year. The maps for the Game of the Year, Game of the Year Final
(3-way), and Game of the Decade polls: http://www.gamefaqs.com/images/cb8/world_3726.png http://www.gamefaqs.com/images/cb8/world_3727.png http://www.gamefaqs.com/images/cb8/world_3728.png There are maps for the US, Canada, UK, and Australia, but you'll need to change "world" in the URL to either "us", "can", "uk", or "au" to access them. You can only go as far back as poll 3720 for the maps, which is the Wii poll. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Dr_Football, Guru Champ! |

Wait I wasn't asking for the India map, I was asking for the India poll. 'Cause I wanted to see how badly FFX and the Nintendo games did (apparently San Andreas won according to the map, which makes sense because GTA is the most-talked about game series at my school, from what I've seen). |

Wouldn't say 0%, the guy was a 2 seed in this contest. --- Calintares made a whole lot of geolocation x-stats Congrats to Dr. Football for winning the Guru. |
voltch | Posted 4/28/2010 5:39:36 AM | message detail |
I
expect some kind of GoW project to be announced due to the success of
the third game, so I wouldn't rule out a possible first seed for him. --- Hau hauu, omochi kaeri! |
Not_Wylvane | Posted 4/28/2010 6:32:13 AM | message detail |
Probably
not a #1 seed considering how competitive it is to get that kind of
seed. I mean, most of the N9 would be competition enough, not to
mention other characters like Squall and Lightning, or even Sora again,
especially if we get some KH3 news anytime soon. #2 again is most likely. I wouldn't think of Kratos in the Top 8 most nominated characters, but definitely in the Top 16. --- Not Wylvane Dr Football Factor'd. |

E3, if KHIII gets announced and we get a few exciting trailers and it's on PS360, then he's going to a ***** to predict. --- Nipaa~ |

Interesting notes on today's poll: Grade school age students are more prevalent in Asia/Oceania than the other regions. Europe has more Graduate School students and more unemployed than the other regions. These are likely to change as the poll continues, although not so much for the European ones. --- "Ahem!

Still
doing really badly though. It's going to end up way below 20%
today.....I know the age polls say the median age is up to 20/21 IIRC,
but it's still pretty remarkable that less than 1/6 of the site is in
high school or below. --- Dr. Football was not stopped by any of us, and won the Guru Contest. |

Looking at the age poll it seems that GameFAQs has quite a few drop-outs. --- Calintares made a whole lot of geolocation x-stats Congrats to Dr. Football for winning the Guru. |

"grade school student" isn't the most easily understood phrase ever. I

From: LeonhartFour | #341 You're being generous. Do we really need yet another ****ing soda poll? I almost want to see another week of "Got Console?" polls instead! I don't see why we have to have the same fifteen polls rerun every few months. --- Not Wylvane Dr Football Factor'd. |
LeonhartFour | Posted 4/28/2010 9:09:02 PM | message detail |
This
is the third time it's been run in 25 months. Not sure why this is
becoming an annual poll considering the results were almost identical
the first two times and it's on pace to repeat those results. --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |
