yikes. CT gon' need the during school vote to save them here. --- add the c and back away iphonesience |
We need the "Average number of votes needed to win" thing to return. --- The Gamer In Me His dark secret is he's really Spark Brushel in disguise. If people knew, he'd be ruined. - Spiral on the black psyche locks |
631?I must have seen wrong then.Still I think CT can win. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
Although I have to agree having a close match finally is nice. --- Ngirl is a toll bridge - Wigs Gotta pay if you want to come inside! - Ngirl |
Oh wow the CT guys are under 51.5% I wonder if this will amount to little more than the "slowest comeback ever" just like Half-Life 2 did against Metroid Prime last year. Heck, this match involves a Valve entrant in the "loser's seat" as well! Didn't Half-Life 2 barely win the ASV over Metroid Prime? Well...would it be possible to project this match's results through that? --- Currently Playing - StarCraft: Brood War |
GIVE ME FROG'S THEME. --- Ngirl is a toll bridge - Wigs Gotta pay if you want to come inside! - Ngirl |
The ASV is going to absolutely murder CT later, like it always does. Even still, I have no idea if this match is good or no-- ah who the F cares it's FINALLY A MATCH WORTH WATCHING GOD BLESS YOU FROG --- Your time is rolling over. My time is coming soon. I'll resurrect the ancient spores, eclipse the Vargr moon. |

I WOULD BE MAD ABOUT BEING NINJA'D BUT GOD DAMN A MATCH CLOSER THAN 55-45! THERE CAN NEVER BE ENOUGH FROG'S THEME! CAPS LOCK IS ON FOR THE REST OF THIS MATCH --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png http://i.imgur.com/FII1z.gif |

From: WarThaNemesis2 | #209 For once, the generic top comment about the dislikes is actually good. --- .·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·. True warriors know no fear. This is not pride, but merely confidence. |
I'm happy no matter who wins, I feel like Don King. Magus in one corner, GLaDOS in the other? Good stuff. --- "I wrote a sixteen page essay about why DAO is bad, but I had nowhere to post it so it's sitting on my desktop." -Anagram |
Damn, why did I move my Oracle prediction? Oh well. First decent match of the contest. --- Official Queen ***** of the Universe! |

Dman,
just realised i got Sora>Dante on my bracket. Should i chnage the
bracket to Dante>Sora? I don't feel comfortable about Sora at all. --- http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/5716/linkpron.gif |
Matches
like this really make you wonder how some of the bigger contest matches
would have gone if Mega Man and Crono were as popular in Europe as they
are everywhere else. --- Game of the Decade? More like Guru of the Decade mirite? |

If
Trigger were popular in Europe I think Crono would have been in the
Clinkeroth-tier until 2006, maybe later. Hell, Trigger might have won
the Games Contest in 2004. Mega Man is a rougher one because I think if
he were stronger in Europe it could easily spread to the rest of
Nintendo since he's pretty pseudo-Nintendo and that's a whole different
can of worms. Edit: I did not realize Mario freaking doubled Mega Man in Europe last CB. I'll stand by my point anyways but damn. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png http://i.imgur.com/FII1z.gif |
From: Wii_TuRtLe | #220 Crono definitely would have been more popular if CT existed in Europe during the SNES era, MM just isn't appealing. SNES also sold less than Megadrive in Europe i think or certainly UK. --- http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/5716/linkpron.gif |
One of the few cases where releasing a game on a Sega console period would have a significant impact on the contest. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png http://i.imgur.com/FII1z.gif |
And now the 600 vote barrier is back. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png http://i.imgur.com/FII1z.gif |
Frog, you've changed things.....there's no going back. You see to them, you're just a freak......like ME! Match Over. CT now Steam rolling(in small chunks) over 1000 vote lead by the early morning PST. --- http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/5716/linkpron.gif |
yeah, CT is safe, here Portal might not even make cuts during the ASV --- ~ Rivalry Rumble Oracle Challenge ~ Rank - 24th Today's Prediction: Frog / Magus - 54.25% |
The
Mega-Drive was much more the Xbox of its time in Europe, it was the
more popular casual console. The Snes wasn't far behind it and was far
from obscure but even then it was the more popular choice of the gaming
hardcore, which is probably a bigger slice of the Europeans who visit
here. Why CT does bad in Europe is perfectly understandable, its was widely regarded here as a great game which never was. Had it been released it would have had the same kind of success it had elsewhere. Mega Man? It's present here but is just so incredibly irrelevant I literally had never even heard of him before I came to gamefaqs. After playing some of his games I refuse to believe Europe are the strange ones for detesting them. --- Smurf, the cream of Sonic fanboyism |
so a ~1000 vote lead by the time the day vote hits in a contest with half the vote totals could be good, but it needs to be a clear edge for Portal in the day. Portal is not a day vote game and CT will not go down easily in the final hours. --- add the c and back away iphonesience |
Honestly,
Frog/Magus might not fall that hard with the ASV. I mean, if Portal
could only move 140 votes with maximum Europe influence, they might not
even be able to move twice that with the ASV. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png http://i.imgur.com/FII1z.gif |
Frogus
probably has this, I see the ASV being more of a stall if anything. I
could see the Portal guys cutting maybe like 300 votes or something, but
I think this lead is too much. --- I wish I could wear skirts and dresses :( -GMUN |
From: __Smurf__ | #228 Xbox 1? Xbox1 was never casual, it was basically a halo Box. Unless you mean the 360 which is FAR more popular this gen and in UK 360 has almost a double sales lead over PS3. --- http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/5716/linkpron.gif |
PS3 is more popular in Europe than 360 according to VGchartz >_< --- ... |
Of
course.Here in my country,EVERYONE had a PS1 and a PS2.The other
consoles it was like they never existed.And the reason was piracy,I mean
pretty much everyone had pirated games.Now in other countries of Europe
piracy wasn't that big but here it was around 90%. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
That was a pretty big cut. Good vote spike there for Portal. |
Xbox
1? Xbox1 was never casual, it was basically a halo Box. Unless you mean
the 360 which is FAR more popular this gen and in UK 360 has almost a
double sales lead over PS3. Nawp, the only country Xbox is winning is America, which granted is the one that matter most. --- http://img.imgcake.com/nio/2bigwigpngut.png |
What a silly match. --- I wish I could wear skirts and dresses :( -GMUN |
Frog/Magus and Vampires both not dying with the rise of the sun. What a world we live in. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png http://i.imgur.com/597oi.png |
Well CT did it,I believe they have no chance to lose.So for the first close match of the contest it wasn't bad. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
So is it safe to feel alright about Alucard > Frog again --- http://img.imgcake.com/RegaroUlquiorrapngse.png |
_Regaro_ posted... So is it safe to feel alright about Alucard > Frog again Given that Alucard lost a close match with Liquid Snake and Frog won a close match with Liquid Snake and that Alucard/Frog is going to be a close match, no. (Serious answer: Yeah.) --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png http://i.imgur.com/597oi.png |
Out of the perfects only 6 have Alucard/Dracula winning next round --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rivalry Rumble: 47/54 Today: Frog/Magus |
finally sneaked the lead up over 800 --- thelefty for analysis crew 2008 imo -tranny I have a third degree burn in flame-o-nomics -Sir Chris |
Another hour, another 100 votes. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png http://i.imgur.com/597oi.png |
Would anyone be giving Portal a chance if this was in the old days and Frog was already up by 1600? 800 votes doesn't sound like a lot but with the little votes coming in, its a bigger hurdle to overcome than it sounds --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
it's Chrono Trigger vs not Chrono Trigger anything could happen! --- thelefty for analysis crew 2008 imo -tranny I have a third degree burn in flame-o-nomics -Sir Chris |
Given that it's Frog he could be up 1600 votes with these votals and I'd still half-expect the match to end within 100 votes. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png http://i.imgur.com/597oi.png |
Frog - always providing us with interesting matches. I love that little guy! --- Xbox Live Gamertag: ffmasterjose Your favorite Trapper's favorite Trapper |
Portal doesn't exactly have a powerful day vote. Portal's fate was known when they could only stall Frogus during their worst time. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rivalry Rumble: 47/54 Today: Frog/Magus |
Every time Chell/Glados make a cut, Frog and Magus have an almost exact update the very next one. obv cheating tbqh --- I wish I could wear skirts and dresses :( -GMUN |
