What would you take between Perfect Dark and SOTN nowadays? SOTN won with 53% in 2004, but it has fallen since then, so...... SOTN got 30% on Chrono Trigger, which is probably similar to Melee in strength. If you assume PD = SOTN now, COD4 having a 55-45 edge on PD, plus getting a night match against Melee, can push it to 35%. --- Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest. |

Is there some way to spin Skies of Arcadia as the strongest non-FF RPG Not with RBY around. I think the other Pokemon generations and the two Paper Marios could take SoA no problem as well. RSE and TTYD might struggle, dunno. I wish Skies was stronger. I want a sequel, but what if they mess it up? D: --- And then the car wash cost five dollars.

Also, let's please please pleas try not to make snap judgments about melee at midnight. How melee does against cod has almost no relevance whatsoever to its match with brawl. --- on 4ways: right now they have inherent flaws, but could be easily fixed by implementing approval voting! ~ToadYoshi 1.

The
easier question is what RPGs would we take Skies of Arcadia to actually
beat? From this bracket, Baldur's Gate II obviously, Mother 3, and...? If you think it still gets its 2004 percentage on Wind Waker, I guess it's pretty close to Star Ocean, but I think we agree it wouldn't? I think it says something that Laharl got an 8 seed last year while Vyse bombed the vote-ins. Vyse might not win a rematch, and the Disgaea series has continued to get new games, so I think Disgaea would win there, to say nothing of Valkyria Chronicles. Tales of Vesperia has Tales in its name and based on Borderlands vs. FFX it probably beats 2004 Skies anyways. It would need Mass Effect to be pretty close to DPP to beat Path of Radiance, and that's assuming PoR didn't get Nintendo RPG SFFed there or something. Second is possible, not buying the first. Would take KOTOR > Mass Effect and FE did better there than SoA did on Mass Effect. Not sure what Persona 3's 31% on FF9 means, but I'd say it doesn't beat that either, to say nothing of Persona 4 or TWEWY. |

Half-Life
2's prediction percentage was very good. Not very many had it losing to
God of War/Tales of Symphonia/RE4. If Metroid Prime beats HL2 the
brackets are probably going to be sliced and diced. Nice start for Melee so far... what would you say if CoD4 did worse than Morrowind?! =P --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. So...what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |

From: redrocket | #233 The sad thing is, it might just end up that way. CoD4 is a couple percentage points behind Morrowind at this point. By the end of the first five minutes, Melee was only barely tripling Morrowind. Morrowind > CoD4 would be hilarious. --- Wylvane WVI is a horrible user. |
