45% on the prequel to our the 2012 GOTY --- "Why must we always choose between certain death and probable death?" "I'm in an epic battle to the death, FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF!" |
nice damage control bud --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
It means EVERYTHING seriously nobody played Drakengard --- http://gifsoup.com/view4/2077316/thane-dance-o.gif http://gifsoup.com/view1/1334641/pop-that-collar-o.gif |
As someone who thought Marth could win, Phoenix actually winning a match is awesome. --- *2, *8,070,446 Kuroko no Basket *3, *6,495,240 Naruto |
Everyone thought Marth had a chance. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/NQTthNf.jpg |
Then as someone who took Marth to win in the bracket, Phoenix actually winning a match is awesome. --- *2, *8,070,446 Kuroko no Basket *3, *6,495,240 Naruto |
Depending on how close Marth makes this by the end of it, Phoenix possibly could've won a day match against him, too. He's been surprisingly consistent since the freeze as well. --- http://gifsoup.com/view/477513/red-vs-blue-road-rage-part-1-o.gif http://gifsoup.com/view/477534/red-vs-blue-road-rage-part-2-o.gif |
People actually played Tales of Vesperia. That's the difference. I think Xenoblade Chronicles sold better than ToV -- at least in the U.S... Also, XC has a really solid fan base, and given that it's considered one of the greatest JRPGs of its generation, it's as popular here as it anywhere. I'm looking forward to seeing what happens, but I feel like XC is being underrated. --- Life isn't fair, it's just fairer than death, that's all |
Oops sorry. Were you even talking about XC? I could have totally taken that out of context :/ --- Life isn't fair, it's just fairer than death, that's all |
I mean compared to Drakengard, not Xenoblade. Pretty sure most of the board had no idea what Drakengard was before this contest, and if they did, it wasn't through firsthand experience with it. --- http://i52.tinypic.com/2zfiu09.gif http://i54.tinypic.com/10729w2.gif |
Would
Reyn really be as strong as Dunban? My theory is that Dunban will have
the whole Auron thing going on and be stronger than anybody else in his
game, including the lead. Not that he stands much of a chance against KOS-MOS --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
I never hear anyone talk about Dunban though. It's always Reyn. Not that it necessarily means anything. --- http://i.imgur.com/eqOQs.gif |
Reyn
gets talked about because he's funnier and has birthed one or two memes
among the fanbase. Dunban is just an all-around great character. From
what I can remember, he's way better than Auron. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif |
I
don't think Auron is that much stronger than everybody else in his game
just because, though. Tidus, Yuna, even Rikku, they're all more
divisive entities than the badass-looking, badass-talking,
badass-fighting Auron. Who dislikes Shulk though? And Reyn? And unlike
Tidus, Shulk doesn't look like a total fashion disaster, so it's not
like Dunban has the edge of a coherent design over him like Auron does
over his game's main character. I think it's safe to say Dunban is going
to be the comfortably third best Xenoblade character in this bracket. |
Speaking as someone who took Marth as an upset pick, this sucks Leon do you ever sleep. its like 5 am from where I'm at --- The Great GameFAQs Character Battle IX contest - 11/12 pts | Expert Challenge: 29/72 NP: Marth > Phoenix Wright > Nightmare |
Shulk's
boring though. Reyn is pretty cool; I'd definitely be voting for him in
his match if I wasn't bracket voting (might do it anyway). Dunban is
just awesome though, and is a much more compelling character. (But of
course Dunban is doing the worst in this contest given the respective
competition for each character). --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
KOS-MOS
and Dunban could be interesting since it's (loosely) the same series
and Dunban is the new blood. Could have people abandoning KOS-MOS to
move on to the more currently relevant character. I think Xenoblade is arguably more of a... hit? I don't want to use that word since it wasn't a huge financial success or anything, but it does have a better reputation. --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
It's
really hard to say which Xenoblade character is the strongest, because
they're all pretty awesome in their own way. Shulk's the protagonist
with some actual development, Dunban's the experienced badass in the
vein of Auron and Balthier, and Reyn's a much-more fleshed-out and
likable sidekick with some meme power behind him. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |

Pretty sure Xenoblade did make money and would've made more if it wasn't sold inlimited supply, Gamestop only with no advertising. --- NGirl@work or on phone. |
Had Marth. But go Phoenix! --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |

Wow this post got me interested in Xenoblade. Bad news is, I have no idea how I'd obtain it. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |

Waking up to this result is much better than Draven's, that's for sure. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://board8.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page, Rest in peace Kazbar :( |
Bahahaha. Anyway, I hope Dunban does well. |
People seriously had a doubt for this match?Come on. Barret finished with around 50% and had around 50% prediction.I guess many went with Layton. --- 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~ |
Still perfect. I think that the next possibly hard match is The Boss, but I think that one is wrapped up too. After that, I suppose Morrigan is the tough one. Though she'll probably win. --- Point Total: 12/12. Guru Status: Alive My Bracket Says: Night: Phoenix Day: Vincent |
Out of 630 perfects,only about 200 will lose this match |
Nanis23 posted... Out of 630 perfects,only about 200 will lose this match Is this a prediction or do you know something I don't. Because I am guessing more like 300. --- Death is not to be feared, but avoidance never hurt anyone. http://i.imgur.com/hDIb02X.jpg |
Well 28 of the 106 perfect gurus are getting it wrong. So 300 means over 50% of the non-guru perfects are getting it wrong. That seems very high. The 30ish% total guru split seems more likely. --- NGirl@work or on phone. |
The huge seed advantage will probably help Phoenix too in the brackets --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
Yeah
it seems people pick based on seed.I mean everyone had Barret winning
the match,yet the prediction was around 51%.So there you go. --- 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~ |
Achromatic posted... Nanis23 posted...Out of 630 perfects,only about 200 will lose this match No, I just got the feeling that the majority predicted Phoenix to win It just felt that more people here supported him |
What is the story behind Chester? Is it "let's nominate a main character from a random game no one played"? |
Nanis23 posted... What is the story behind Chester? The game was made by someone who uses Board 8. --- Crucifying my Oracle average one match at a time |
Even if 200 of 600 miss this match, I think that 33% of the top 5% of braket makers is significant! --- Point Total: 12/12. Guru Status: Alive My Bracket Says: Night: Phoenix Day: Vincent |
ShatteredElysium posted... Nanis23 posted...What is the story behind Chester? So he won't even get joke votes outside of Board 8 then? Sad |
He has pretty sweet character design. But yeah, no-one will know who he is. --- NGirl@work or on phone. |
Argh... going to lose my perfect bracket to Phoenix. At least I have Edgeworth>Morrigan. --- "The greatest wealth is health." - Virgil |
No one knows who Zero is too if you know what I mean!! |
I
think it might be a mistake to assume that Miles will beat Morrigan.
There is a big difference between the name recognization of Miles and
Phoenix　 --- Point Total: 12/12. Guru Status: Alive My Bracket Says: Night: Phoenix Day: Vincent |
Nah now after this match I think Miles has it. --- 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~ |
Safer_777 posted... Nah now after this match I think Miles has it. Good luck with that. --- Death is not to be feared, but avoidance never hurt anyone. http://i.imgur.com/hDIb02X.jpg |
I
don't know. On this site, I wouldn't be surprised if more people are
familiar with Edgeworth and Ace Attorney than Morrigan and Darkstalkers. I also wouldn't be surprised if pic factor gets her every vote from people that don't care about either (or Hitman). --- "One toot on this whistle will take you to a far away land." -Toad, SMB3 |
Morrigan
is rare in the sense that people know her more for her crossover
appearances than her main series. One never has to play a DS game to
know who she is these days, heck she's appearing in a good number of
non-fighting games now (Namco x Capcom, Cross Edge, Project X Zone) --- Now Awaiting: Tales of Xillia, Squigly patch for Skullgirls |
If
Edgeworth wins it will be because of the weakness of Morrigan, the guy
is Guybrush tier in terms of weak characters making multiple contests. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 11/12 Today's Picks: Marth and Vincent |
Well the Lol x-stats page has Miles like 10 points below Phoenix. --- Point Total: 12/12. Guru Status: Alive My Bracket Says: Night: Phoenix Day: Vincent |
Also, who doesn't love a good ole' succubus? Ever heard of Viper GTS? --- Point Total: 12/12. Guru Status: Alive My Bracket Says: Night: Phoenix Day: Vincent |
