Nobody puts MM in a corner.

Also, I highly value FFD's opinions, and generally enjoy his posts. I agree with his sentiments and viewpoints in regard to MM.

And I don't consider MM to be the little brother of OoT. MM is its own, amazingly awesome game, and I'm glad that it's currently winning this battle.

Majora's Mask was my Game of the Decade before the contest started. I have it winning in my Fun Entry 'Favorites' bracket.

I know a lot of other people who think it's the greatest Zelda too. It's been under rated and under appreciated for a long time, and I'm just glad it's finally getting the credit it deserves.

uh oh... a stall.

Drone nothing. Majora > all Zelda games.

We were fairly close to a TP vs. MM final. I think the 'drones' sentiment is fair.

Stupid kids, Majora's Mask is actually perfectly deserving of "Game of the Decade". If this were Twilight Princess the whining is perfectly acceptable, but come on.

Yes, please destroy this Stupid Smash Bashers Brawl.

And now, for some LinkMarioSamus utter annoying stupidity!





According to Official Nintendo Magazine, Brawl should win this match, and both of these games should lose to New Super Mario Wii.


There has never been a more appropriate time for "Shut up, LMS".

XD, Majora's Mask is gaining ground in Europe. It was only around 53% in Europe after the board vote ended and now it's above 59% right now. I bet that percentage drops later on as the night vote progresses.

Drones are preferable to people that would vote Brawl over Melee.

I disagree a lot of people that argued for drones voted Melee > Brawl.

Finally a stall.
Those Europe numbers need to drop and quickly or Brawl will get wrecked overnight (how wrong did that sentence just sound?).


That sounds backwards as hell.

That's fine, but between the awesome little brother in MM and the down syndrome little brother in Brawl, I'll take the awesome one every time.


Fine by me.

Like I said, when I said that I didn't mean it to disregard what you were saying. Just that your opinion can't change that MM is the "little brother". I'm fine with people who prefer MM to OoT etc.

Brawl attempting to evade The L.A.W. Crime does not prosper, Brawl.

The 1-2 hour will be interesting, that might be a more 'neutral' vote reflective of the day vote.

It's almost impossible for Brawl to win this. It isn't going to win any regions by any large number, MM probably has a better day vote than it, and everyone wants to see Brawl lose.

I've never actually seen someone say that though (besides you, right now obv). Majora's Mask is so unique from any of the other entries in the series that it stands on its own better than most of the others.

Another gain for MM. Brawl really needs to start cutting soon or it may find itself in too big of a hole to come back. MM should get the day vote but not by so much. The morning vote should go to Brawl though.
Mr Purge | Posted 12/22/2010 9:31:17 PM | message detail
WHAT?! I came back to see how bad FFX would destroy Brawl after that pitiful performance against Fallout 3, only to discover it's not even in the match!

What in the hell happened? I left last night before the power hour was even over because FFX had the lead and I figured that if Zelda couldn't even hold the lead through the power hour it was toast. How in the hell did it fend off FFX's godly night vote? Did it even fend FFX off over night or did FFX just collapse Crono-style during the day?

Man, I thought Square had finally won a contest for the first time in years but I suppose the cosmos just won't allow it!

I guess almost nothing can save us from Zelda unless we get another L Block entrant.


So pretty much, unless Bacon allows blatant cheating, then ZELDA wins.



I can get behind that.



Also, now is as good a time as any.



A look back at Link's/LoZ/OoT's "losses"





2003 vs Cloud. WW picture, that's it. Nothing else at all in this match is relevant, this was obvious a couple years ago, I now fear for your sanity if you say otherwise after this contest though.
2004 vs FF VII. The admin was an idiot and did not make it the Final match. If that was the final, OoT wins.....PERIOD.
2007 L Block*. Vote for the worst, cheating, joke, cheating, rallies from 4 Chan, cheating, and of course.....CHEATING.

More in terms of critical reception and aura. It's without doubt a quality game and unique in its own series, but it's just...not OoT.

And this from a guy who found OoT decidedly mediocre. OoT just has an aura that MM lacks, and with MM released in reasonably close proximity to it, that's where the "little brother" thing comes from.

FFX peaked at 1400 votes this morning, then dropped like a rock until about 7, where Major stalled at a 400 vote lead to the end

The Game of the Decade: A Zelda game with aliens, dancing ReDeads, and all manner of funny stuff. Aw yeah. The only reason why I haven't been having as much fun with MM as I wanted to is because I keep having to use FAQs to get through dungeons and find sidequests and such...and that's more of a positive for the game because...okay, bottom line: Nintendo was REALLY on crack or something when they made Majora's Mask. I heard that until Morrowind's release, no game had more sidequests, and most of MM's are of the highest quality, too. Also it's the height of Nintendo's cinematic talent (can't wait to see that ending cutscene on my big screen TV instead of a computer screen).

And now, for more of LMS's utterly annoying stupidity!

That "one impressive match" (not true, it blasted GS) was awesome, considering its opponent. One of the performances of the ever really.

Eh, last year's RE4/MGS3 match and the two round 5 matches predicted FFX/MM remarkably well, so I don't think FFX's performance on RE4 was really much better than MM's against MGS3 at all. Our expectations for RE4 going in were way too high (at least mine were, once I looked at what RE4 had actually done last contest). As for GS, I wouldn't take that game over Paper Mario, and FFX = MM only gives PM a win with like 53% or so.

My perception of FFX has been a game that would get somewhere in the 31-32% area on OOT. The crusade against FFX is over though, now that it's lost to MM. Don't think people will ascribe strength it doesn't have to it anymore (i.e. I hope no one still thinks it could keep things close against LTTP!)
