I have Morrigan, but have had a bad feeling about Edgeworth taking this (well, except for the fact that he's the best one here). Edgey has a board vote to be sure, but that could have been subdued by brackets, I'm not convinced he's out of it.

Ummm... Now I'm not so sure Edgeworth has second. That was one heck of an early board vote, but he basically has a 67-vote lead at the freeze. That's not enough to inspire confidence.

So that's the main problem cited with my favorite character's portrayal in Other M? That Samus looks up to a man too much?

I haven't played Other M since it came out, but going off of what little has been leaked of her characterization in the Prime games and Super Metroid, that honestly doesn't sound bad at all. I guess most of her fans just want Samus to be some brash anti-hero or something.

I dunno. Even before the game was announced, I envisioned Samus to have a rather fragile personality compared to someone like Solid Snake or Master Chief.


I was wondering who the people were that would theoretically approve of their hero making a literal transformation into a helpless and pitifully mewling little girl when confronted with a boss. I can die satisfied now.

I honestly don't remember it being that bad, but it's been a really long time so who knows? To be fair though, whenever I watch footage of the game I get excited to replay it.

If it really is that bad, then I should at least see it for myself. Problem is: I do remember really liking the game, in addition to the above, and I do know quite a few people on YouTube and unikgamer who are huge fans of the game - like I said, some even said that they liked it more than Super Metroid. And any game that can top not one, but TWO "most underrated games" countdowns on YouTube has to be notable. I'll definitely have to go into the game with some serious caution, but whatever.

That being said, I've been getting less and less excited to replay it over the past few days. Might as well just ignore it or something.

I literally had no idea who Reyn was. When I looked him up, I took a few good looks at his pic and thought every time "wait, this guy's going to challenge Spyro and Clementine? Nope".

I never understood why the Hitman series is not popular to begin with
In my country (in Europe) Hitman is more popular than Metal Gear Solid
Hell,even Splinter Cell is more popular than MGS

The first Hitman game was good for it's time (now it's unplable because no in-mission saves)
Contracts was meh
Blood Money was damn good
Silent Assassin? probably in top 5 games in 2002
Absolution was kind of hit or miss (good game,but not good Hitman game...more like stealth than assassinating)

No. Says the oracle predictions where the absolutely overwhelming favorite is Morrigan and not even in a close fashion.

Unless your idea of debatable is 95% Morrigan / 5% Not Morrigan.

Kind of wishing I hadn't listened and changed to Morrigan > 47. Should have banked.

Still, I wonder if we're going to see a big percentage change between Edgeworth and 47 because those 2 should probably be much closer than this.
