I'm sorry but the KH games are basically a mess that I call "Sephiroth Boss Battle 1 &2".


Did you even play the KH games? Sephiroth is a very small option part in both games

this match just makes me think, that each older vs newer series game, works on a specific case by case basis.

As for the upcoming FFX vs Golden Sun, do you think Golden Sun can pull off an upset like it did to GTA, or will FFX take it down despite being one of the weaker FF games?

<scratches head> What do you mean by weaker? Out of all the FF games that are contest worthy, I would think it would make top 5.

I think we have different definitions of 'roll'. If FFX does better on Golden Sun than RE4 did on VC, I'm calling SFF.


FFX > RE4

VC > SA

So I'm not really seeing the problem here.

From: PartOfYourWorld | #197
Of the four inter-series matches (Halo, Smash, KH, MGS), this is the only one where I thought the more recent game would win. Halo was a huge victory for the older game, and I'd probably favor Majora over WW if those two were to meet as well. This result does not discourage me from backing the other older games whatsoever. In fact, it kinda emboldens me to see the original KH do so well; I didn't think it would be this close.


KH1 losing doesn't do "The original is stronger" argument any favors because there was no clear leaning from the fanbase here, and if being the original doesn't do it any good, then Melee being older isn't going to do it any good in a similar situation where there's no clear leaning from the fanbase.

Also, preliminary lower half stats:

Kingdom Hearts II – 50.00%
Kingdom Hearts – 49.44%
BioShock – 43.73%
Halo 2 – 36.19%
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 – 33.31%
Dissidia: Final Fantasy – 28.91%
Star Wars: Battlefront II – 27.19%
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow – 22.84%

Wow, you would think the gap between KHII and KH would be bigger because of how notorious the Organization was in introducing new fans to the KH franchise.

Golden Sun should do a decent bit better than FFTA did in '04.

I have KH in my battle challenge, but I don't actually care about the battle, just the bracket. So I'm happy.

Oh, and KH2 being the more "casual friendly game" doesn't really do pro-Melee arguments any favors either.

So I don't really know how you guys are spinning pro-Melee arguments out of this!

It's just many found the game to be a mixed bag for many reasons.

1. Linear storyline until you finally get the ship, no exploring like you could in other FF games.

2. Tidus wasn't the sort of hero people expected and in turn many disliked him.

3. The Laughing Scene......

4. Some of the minigame rewards were absurdly hard to get, namely the Lightning dodge, and the Chocobo race for the 2nd half of Tidus' final weapon.

It's an upset in guru only. That match doesn't have an obvious winner, especially when you look at the current result.

There's no way of knowing which game the fanbase will support.

MGS3 really doesn't have an "older game" factor to hang onto. It wasn't the first MGS game, and it didn't revolutionize the series in the way RE4 did. It's pretty much just "a really good game". Metal Gear Solid 4 was the face of the PS3 for a long time, and even though more games in the series have come out, it still concluded the story.

Doesn't Europe prefer Wii?

Even if it does though, Melee's Power Hour is ****ing bananas. Assuming Melee and Brawl are equal, I don't think Brawl would have ended that first hour with nearly 74% on CoD4. I expect Melee to lead at first.

Don't know who favors Europe, but it doesn't really matter. It could easily see the match being
1. First hour, Melee crushes with insane early vote.
2. Rest of the match is a stall.

A lot of people's contests ride on Melee/Brawl more than any match other than the final, so...

On the one hand, Melee's early vote will give it a nice boost to defend... but on the other hand, it will be a very good sign for Brawl if it can tie things up after the first 40 mins or so.
