It's kind of important. If this match has a lot of SFF in HL2's favor, your Fallout 3 > HL2 pick is pretty much set in stone. If not, then it's as up in the air as ever.

Either way we won't fully know how much SFF until it goes up against God of War.

LOL 4-WAYS

You're right the SFF/LFF in that match could have been crazy for L4D, looks like HL2 wins.

forget fourways, you guys are trying to measure a match using Infamous vs. potentially SFFed Left 4 Dead 2. I hope we're not going to try and gauge Melee vs. Brawl through Guitar Hero 2 and Mario Kart DS!

I picked Fallout 3 to beat Half-Life 2 but in all honesty it was a confident pick at the time but Half-Life 2 has every shot at winning it, could be closer than we think.

I hope not, too, especially since we'll see SSBM at night and SSBB at day...but we'll compare anyway.

From: ExThaNemesis | #2201
Although this match doesn't really help us out much because there's obviously some SFF involved... I just wish HL2 could really harness the SFF power and crush L4D2 into the ground.


You consider it breaking 77% as something other than crushing it into the ground?

I don't know, that sure seems pretty "crushing into the ground" levels to me.

I can see Prime being a threat, but I'm surprised to hear people think God of War can HL2. I really don't think it will.

HL2 still sucks in the day. Metroid Prime and Fallout 3 will be night matches.

MW2 will do just as well as before. Dissidia is still a mediocre game on a system most people don't own.

I think people are overrating the PSP factor for that game. The way I view it, is for people who don't care about MW2, but are big FF fans... whats to stop them from voting Dissidia even if they've never touched a PSP in their life? And I think theres enough FF fans like that to cause a possible upset. Its a low % upset chance, but I wouldn't say its impossible.

Probably the same thing that stopped them from doing it in the GOTY poll where it got quadrupled by MW2.

HaRRicH | Posted 10/27/2010 1:32:04 PM | message detail
I can't say it enough: MW2 quadrupled Dissidia nine months ago. MW2 doubled all three Square-games in that GotY-poll combined. You could make Dissidia's picture twice as big as MW2's so you can actually make out some of their faces, and it still won't be close. Like tranny said, it's a PSP-game, and one that wasn't received THAT well.

Not that MW2's going to quadruple it again, but Dissidia's not going to ever be in contention after maybe the opening seconds.

There were many other options in that poll, so its unfair to view that poll in the same light as this poll. For this one, its Modern Warfare or Final Fantasy All-Star Game. If I was a Final Fantasy fan who never owned a PSP, which do you think I would vote for?

These people could vote MW2 because of its rep. Dissidia does not have a good rep. Many times when people haven't played either game, they vote based on what they've heard of the games.

I also do not expect Dissida vs. MW2 to be a close match.

MM9 was barely able to beat Demon's Souls with a name brand factor. I know FF is a lot bigger than MM, but there are very few games that get by on name value alone. There are fans like that, but there isn't this hivemind mentality like people like to propound for FF fans.

That's just Link fans.

Bingo. Even if you want to really stretch and say Square-fans flocked to the biggest RPG of the year in DA:O instead of these minor Square spin-offs, Square's three titles and DA:O combined only beats MW2 by ~2.5%.

Dissidia isn't winning without a major site-shift since January.

They like Zack.

I can see where Albion's coming from. The upset really wouldn't shock me. MW2 does not seem to be nearly as loved as CoD4 from what I've gathered, and Dissidia is just one of those games that could fall anywhere. It's the black-haired Cloud of games. Ok, so that's technically Crisis Core, but still, Dissidia strikes me as a game that will be much stronger than it should, just because of its name and a strong link to other beloved games.
