I think the 'Game of the Decade' thing has more to do with it than a change in format. People respect SotC (and ICO) a lot.


Well Okami and Amaterasu did a lot better here than in the LOL 4-ways, but don't expect stats people who haven't played the game to give it respect any time soon.

Resident Evil 5 might beat Okami. GoW wouldn't have any trouble with it.

GANON loves Metroid Prime, actually.

Then why did he put a pic with lights out? Was he ashamed of showing Samus's greatness to the world?

It would destroy Okami, and if Half-Life keeps going up like this it's back to being the favorite next round. Pretty sure this was only close early because of GoW bracket votes and DAT TOP OPTION.

Not really I would take Crono to get about 56% on Luigi. Well maybe slightly less, but really we're falling into range of error territory.

Looks like GTAIII is legit after all. This pleases me.

And I always figured the F3/Prime/HL2 trio was going to be tough. I can still see any of the three pulling it off.

God of War is about as strong as GTA:SA which is about as strong as GTA3. God of War is doing slightly better than GTA3 did on the same opponent. There's nothing special here other than being another example of 4 way stats holding up surprisingly well.

True which is why FO3 is the favourite, but 60/40 is crazy, that's putting Fallout 3 at Resident Evil 4 level, heck Batman broke 41% on it yesterday.

I'm not sure if you know, but casual GTA fans tend to jump on the most recent GTA game (well they did until GTA4) hold that poll with those exact same games and I wouldn't be surprised if we got the same results.

That GTA poll was done shortly after GTA:SA's release. SFF is also messing up the strength ratios between the games. Even if that result still held today, I would still believe the GTA games are very close together in terms of strength.

Also 2004 was a long time ago:

Also from 2006:

Probably because GTA > GTA2 though that's probably people series voting games they never played, kind of like how Fallout would probably defeat Fallout 2 because of Fallout 3.

Either that or the performance KH pulled in 2004, defeating the unstoppable force known as SoulCalibur.

It's my favorite in the series, but I had a feeling it would lose that match. 3 MGS matches in 2 days, the most polarizing title being last of the three, plus SotC doing well given the contest's title is no surprise. I still get to see an MGS destroy it though, so it's no huge loss. And besides, it's not like SotC magically stopped being the worst game ever made because it won some poll on a web site.
