GameFAQs Contests

Let me start out by saying I love the dreamcast, but here are my seven.

1. PS2
2. XBOX360
3. PS3
4. Wii
5. XBOX
6. Gamecube
7. Dreamcast

I think a case can be made for PS3>360 and Gamecube>XBOX however.

1. PS2
2. PS3
3. 360
4. GameCube
5. Wii
6. Dreamcast
7. Xbox

wow 50-50. 1 vote the difference. This match will be entertaining for a while yet.

So I just googled this Liberty Prime thing people are talking about.

My god so badass.

I'd take the Cube over the original Xbox pretty easily. I'd take it over the Wii as well, at least right now.

PS2 is obviously #1, with 360 having a strong case for #2. After that it's GameCube or PS3 in some order. Then Wii/Xbox, with Dreamcast last.

Regarding MM/MGS3, MM has a day match against MGS3, it should break 55% or so handily.

I'm getting Cloud/Samus (2010) vibes from this match. There is little hope for MP to actually stall all the way through the night and then win the morning vote (what on Earth is with the US voting against a GameCube game in a close match? O.o), but hell if it won't try.

I predict and analyse the Game of the Decade contest here:
http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/56817040

I didn't expect Prime to possibly go 50/50 this hour as well. Btw, it's still leading dat Eurozone. Just throwing it out there.

It's ok guise. MP can come back.

Yo Where All The White Women At

From what I remember Metroid basically has Mario trends (average ASV, strong morning, weak night). So Prime is to win the morning vote here?

Also I'm getting vibes of a Nintendo boost, possibly due to E3 2010. It just really sounds funny that MGS4/Galaxy could swing in the latter's favor considering last year.

Would Brawl SFF both of them now?

I'm surprised people are ranking the 360 above the PS3 with ease. Looking at notable exclusives between the two:

PS3:
MGS4
Heavy Rain
Uncharted 2
Demon's Souls
God of War III
Ratchet and Clank (all three of em)
Gran Turismo 5
Infamous
Folklore

360:
Gears of War
Gears of War II
Halo 3
Halo: Reach
Dead Rising
Tales of Vesperia
Fable 2
Fable 3
Alan Wake
Lost Odyssey

I think that, in general, the PS3's exclusives have been better-received while having a wider variety of genre choices. All subjective, but ranking the PS3 two spots below the 360 seems a bit extreme.


Also, something something Metroid Prime.

Prime could very easily win this. It's drops after the Power Hour (and even after the board vote) happened almost immediately and continued for the rest of the match. This has been pretty stable the entire match.

Okay, prime winning for 30 minutes I expected, but 2 hours and tied? Awesome. It's still Fallout's to lose, as night vote is just starting... but if Prime can stay above, say' 49.5% by morning, it could do it....

I feel like people are getting their hopes up for Prime here. The real Euro vote doesn't hit for another hour or so, and that's usually when Prime starts falling off. I'm impressed it's doing so well here, but I don't think it'll win.

Same series SFF trends, zzzzzz

Northwest Division Stats

The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask – 50.00%
Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal – 44.05%
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker – 43.21%
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion – 37.85%
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door – 33.94%
Assassin’s Creed II – 33.83%
Chrono Cross – 32.90%
God of War II – 31.15%
SoulCalibur II – 28.42%
Gears of War – 27.27%

Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King – 25.08%
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – 23.88%
Advance Wars – 23.54%
Wii Sports – 16.60%

If you assume PM = TTYD and MM/WW was a perfectly legit match with no SFF whatsoever, MM is projected to get 60.08% on MGS3. Heck, even if you assume MM = WW indirectly, MM gets 53.81%.

"I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now."

Also do you guys think any of these rematches could swing the other way?

Vice City/KOTOR
GTAIV/SFIV
Vice City/Prime
Galaxy/MW1
DPP/MW1
MGS4/FO3
ME1/L4D
ME1/Halo 3
Halo 1/KOTOR
CC/HL1
And could Metroid Prime break 60% on Half-Life now?

---

I'd take the old loser in almost all of those. The only ones I'd even think about are GTA/SF and maybe MGS4/FO3.

I'm really surprised at how close this is.
MP had been awful all contest long with European voters. It's shocking how good it is against Fallout 3 when you consider Okami almost won it.

@PartOfYourWorld: You're aware that you're asking for Metroid Prime and HL2 to beat MGS4 in that case as well, right? I dunno, Prime > MGS4 just sounds so wrong after last year.

Yes, that's the one thing that keeps me from pulling the trigger on FO3>MGS4. However, we gotta call a spade a spade here. MGS4 lost to Shadow of the Colossus. Metroid Prime beat Okami with 58%. One of these is more impressive than the other.

And Prime has pulled even yet again! Assuming it keeps it even until the end of this hour, how much night vote does FO3 have to work with before we hit the traditional morning vote? Like four hours? Might be more since it's a weekend, but man, I'm really happy Prime has a shot at all.

It's in about as good of shape as SoTC was in actually.

FO3 will probably ruin it once Europe wakes up, but it's definitely not over yet.

Go Prime!

I wonder if this is the longest we've ever gone without the lead hitting triple digits. TF2/Fable did in the first two hours.

Dr Football and Snake have won this round, but Sephiroth will rise again!

Did I calculate correctly if I found out that Chrono Cross gets 54.69% on Gears of War?

Nope, you didn't calculate it correctly. Chrono Cross gets 58.56% on Gears of War. I calculated that one by hand, but you can use this calculator if you want to:

http://www.gamefaqscontests.com/drupal/node/48?input_values=32.90%0D%0A27.27

Leon already posted an x-stat value of 32.90% for Chrono Cross and 27.27% for Gears of War, so you can input them into the above x-stat calculator I provided.

Prime ends the first quarter with a cut. Masterful job in keeping this close, but now is the real challenge. It's got at least four hours of serious holding to do here.

Fallout 3 lost that hour by 15 votes.

Oh yeah, it is the weekend. Well, the day vote probably won't kick in until 9 AM or so in that case.

Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest.

UK keeping FO3 alive in europe. GJ.

http://www.threadbombing.com/data/media/31/f53sle_2.gif

Fallout 3 reaches a triple digit lead and achieves its highest percentage of the match thus far.

So ultimately Fallout 3, Metroid Prime, and Half-Life 2 all turn out to be on around the same level. I'd say that HL2 would've stood a darn good chance of winning this one if it were here, especially since it's a night game while Fallout 3 is day-oriented.

Would we pick Super Mario Galaxy over all three of these games? After all, FO3 > MGS4 has already been established.
---
Currently Playing - Zelda: Majora's Mask, Smash Bros. Melee

...Well, Mario vs. Samus never ends well for Samus even if Samus is probably stronger indirectly, so I'd take Galaxy there.

FO3 just broke the 200 vote-barrier lead. Guess it's over for now.

Urgh. Well, the Metroid haters in Europe are clearly awake now.

How close does Metroid need to keep this to have a shot at coming back in the morning? I can tell the regulars in this topic don't believe this is even a match despite being closer than expected, but still.
