Heh, at least it was the correct character. If we ever played a mass practical joke on Bacon, we could submit Ventus pics for everyone.

Not to be one of those guys, but they ARE two different characters. Even if they look the same.

You know,Bomberman is kind of a weird character
He is not super classic as Pacman but not really...relevant anymore
He is stuck between being a classic and being totally forgettable nowdays...the fact that new games are being released almost every year but no one cares for them doesn't help him
Without some kind of super popular game I don't see him...surviving in the next 5 years or something..as a franchise

So...GO MAKE BOMBERMAN TOURNAMENT 2!!


Hell yeah Bomberman Tournament music

That first video is Final Fantasy music. Why is Bomberman ripping off Final Fantasy music?

Or is that some really famous classical music piece?

face up guys, ? Block has just as much of a chance as pulling off some kind of freaky deaky run as L-Block and MissingNo did, whether or not it pans out or not we shall see

The fact that L-Block already had that run pretty much kills any chance of that happening with ? Block.

I actually have ? Block over Rikku in my bracket but I don't think I even realized Rikku was in that match...I'd switch to Rikku if I could, and I think I'll go with Rikku in my Expert. I don't have much faith in ? Block there.

But, if ? Block does win, it will be because of raw strength. If it wins it will be through SMB nostalgia power.

Bomberman Tournament is an RPG,with towns and dungeons and staff
No wonder it takea some staff from other RPGs

... that has to be a joke post?

did you watch the EXTENDED CUT of the mgsv trailer

it adds like 3 minutes of snake digging through intestines

I am really forgetful and scatterbrained and have only just NOW gotten around to watching the trailer

with so much digging through intestines

"didn't you say Snake was going to win the contest before" I say a lot of things people shouldn't take seriously

Wow. I still haven't played through MGS4, I still haven't played any other MGS in a good five years, and I'm STILL f***ing pumped as f*** from that trailer. It was easily the best trailer of E3. Like, not a goddamn thing else was even close. It could and should give everyone healthy boosts (perhaps it already has?) and should hopefully propel Boss to the heavens.

Do I need to worry a single bit about this silly Year of Luigi stuff now barring some outlandish pic sabotage?

...that's not really out of the question, argh, I'm gonna have to finally learn how to make pics

Edit: Uh, also. I can't be the only one looking at this match and thinking... Roxas fanbase split or no, can Big Boss reverse this result?:

I put quite a bit of work into a Boss pic for Round 2, but sadly, I think it may have turned out horribly.

http://i.imgur.com/OS9n4VT.png

I know that we're used to thinking that bright, vibrant pics draw the eye and result in an advantage, but my rationale here is that we get super colorful Luigi on the left and super colorful Ness on the right. Boss is getting sandwiched in the middle, and the way to make him pop out most is to make him as dark and brooding as possible. The only light in the picture emanates from his cigar, which doubles as the center for the entire match pic and would help draw the eyes there. I loved the idea in my head but the finished product just seems... confusing. Like you can't tell where Boss's hand stops and his face begins.

Hmm, yeah, I like the concept but it needs a different execution.There's probably no need to mess with the color, MGS characters almost always 'naturally' look more drab compared to their opponents.

I can't stand Solid Sprite anyway, I wouldn't dare unless Big Boss had some weak filler match. Then it would probably benefit him so no one else has any reason to submit it in an important match.

Im sooo looking forward to next match
Maybe then people will shut up about Draven>Link when they see that Captain Teemo losing to L-Block
Of course then the excuses will start "L block is immune to rallies!! Teemo is not liked like Draven!"

Yep, I've just now sat through a match where Revolver Ocelot won an update on Auron. This is now a thing that exists.

Alrighty, time to watch this mysterious 'other trailer' <_<

I'm considering banking in the Expert Challenge. Teemo can conceivably finish in first, second, or third. Considering how badly Draven stunk it up before the rallies, Teemo probably would lose to Palutena if the LoL community does support him at all.

Rebellion against the female bracket made Samus' results wonky...but I think ZSS played a large role as well.

I mean back in the day, Samus being a girl was *the* video game spoiler. Most players of Metroid and Super Metroid probably didn't even realize she was a girl. Lots of Melee players might not have realized either.

Nowadays this would be a small fraction of people, but the power suit definitely adds to her appeal. Without the suit, she'd be less popular - and also back then very few had ever seen ZS Samus before. So it would be an alien appearance to them, on top of getting rid of her badass power suit.

ZSS probably wouldn't hurt her nearly as bad nowadays with people actually being familiar with that version of her. But it isn't surprising it was a disaster for her the first time round.

I thought Samus was getting anti-voted in the female bracket due to being the obvious winner.

Do we still really revile L-Block in here?

Honestly, while I wanted him to lose to Pikachu to prevent more 07 madness, I really do have a special place in my heart for the Block. He did end Link's reign of terror, even if briefly. Plus it was the first time something truly crazy happened in one of these contests so for that I still appreciate him.

And hope that he doesn't fall prey to League of Legends nonsense.

Teemo is to LoL what Techies is to Dota.

Any rally for that POS will hilariously backfire, because the only people that like Teemo, play Teemo. Everyone else hates the mushroom crap.

At the risk of me stretching things here, Palutena did get a bit of Brawl exposure. I'd imagine she's about as recognizable to the average GameFAQs voter as Teemo (perhaps a hair more; again I invoke Brawl), and she's the only female there. Not really flaunting TJF but hey whatever. Of course, she should be weak enough that just about any failed rally attempt should give Teemo the nudge ahead, but who knows if he even gets one.

Is this supposed to be another disappointing performance for post-SNES Final Fantasy?
---

Given that unrallied Draven would get destroyed by Chie Satonaka, I think Palutena could get 2nd quite easily assuming Teemo doesn't get help.
---
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

I can also see Palutena getting destroyed by Chie as well. Hell, Persona having a higher playrate here than Kid Icarus doesn't even seen that unlikely.
---

Chie would very easily beat Palutena - I'm just saying, let's not forget how abysmally weak normal Draven was just because he got rallied/stuffed/whatever. At the end of the Power Hour, he was getting 70-30d by Jak.

Teemo can actually be quite strong,Teemo is just useless all around the game and annoys both teams
Also making the game into a bunker sometimes

And yes I know that Techies can be useful in the hands of a good player,but that player can wreck havoc with every other hero much better

If it means something, Palutena will definitely have the pic advantage.
It's a pretty girl vs. a Tetris block and a furry thing.

I doubt that Teemo is going to get several thousand rallied votes like Draven did since it's a day match (Draven lost in the US) and he does seem to be hated. I'm taking L-Block/No Pick/No Pick. Being a multi-way contest, L-Block could be as strong as it was in 2010 because of lessened joke-hating anti-votes. Really looking forward to this match.

The first one is around 5 minutes I think and plays the song "not your kind of people" by Garbage. The other is about 8 minutes and plays several more typically video game-style songs. Both trailers are so good.

In this upcoming match, I don't think anyone would revile L-Block as many of us probably don't want Teemo advancing to the next round. So a vote for L-Block is a vote to stop Teemo from advancing.

Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ!

The comparison to Techies and Teemo ends at mushrooms/mines and thats it.

Techies is far funner and is designed to rely on opponent stupidity and gullibility, with suicide
Teemo is literally designed to be a pissant

I'd laugh if Palutena won somehow due to being the only entrant not getting anti-voted.

My instinct says Tails beats Simon, maybe safely (Sonic Generations since 2010 + recognition)...but the vote-in suggests otherwise.

I'm pretty sure I remember using the vote-in poll with Missingno in it to put Dante at 60% on BL, too.

A 12-way poll is hardly the most reliable gauge to use for, well, anything.

Auron is projected to get 62% on Ocelot according to the 2010 x-stats, but currently he only has 57%. I take it this is supposed to be yet another underperformance for post-SNES Final Fantasy?

You're on watch, Lightning. You're on watch.

Also, I don't know if you can really take anything from this poll. I'd be kinda surprised if Roxas wasn't hurting Auron at least a little bit. They're both pretty important (and awesome) characters in KH2, and it's not like the whole Squall/Leon thing where people who've only played KH2 possibly wouldn't recognize who Auron is. He literally looks and sounds exactly the same as he does in FFX. Plus, I wouldn't expect KH people to overwhelmingly side with Roxas or anything because Auron's a party member in one of the worlds and a really good one, at that. And there's a decent chance Ocelot is benefiting from some MGSV hype, too.

I wouldn't really use this as evidence of FFX weakening (I wouldn't use Rinoa or Seifer bombing as evidence either because we have no idea where they were before this contest. They could've been this bad all along, and Rinoa's hidden behind Aerith LFF anyway). Next round will give us a better idea (assuming L-Block's there instead of Teemo) since Auron won't have any excuses and L-Block and Ezio are known quantities.

Honestly, if any modern FF game would be immune to decreasing this year, I'd probably say it's FFX. It's widely looked upon as the last good FF game. It's 12 years old now, and an HD remix is on the horizon, so it's got nostalgia going for it. This could just be FFVII weakening as much as anything else at this point anyway. No way to tell if it's spread across the series as a whole.

Do you actually read things before you post? Or are you capable of doing anything other than "X-Stats say this someone must be weaker now?"
