I
don't think meant Yuna. He probably meant stuff like Catherine beating
Vaas. Hell Catherine would probably beat quite a few of the pathetically
weak Western characters we've seen in this contest. Yu and Chie could
too. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
Wait Chief seems to be rising! He's been rising for most of the poll, he'll probably get to occasional cut and will easily finish closer to Yuna than Claire. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 48/60 Today's Picks: Dragonborn and M Chief |
Anybody who votes Tifa over Yuna has no taste in Final Fantasy women. --- Brawl FC - 1332 8069 6690 http://i.imgur.com/OZ9aS.png |
haha, Claire is beating Chief in Europe although lol at Master Chief winning in Japan of all places at the moment |
Auron
went from beating Sonic easily to almost losing to Kratos because Seph
turned up. FFX/FFVII SFF can be some of the most brutal around: http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/3299 --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
Greyfeld posted... Karma Hunter posted...I... see little reason why that shouldn't be the favorite unless Tifa can SFF Yuna hard. Unless Pyramid Head and Nook have gotten ridiculously stronger, Dragonborn looks to be pretty bad fodder. This is just stupid --- Tornadoman78: tornadoman and tornadogirl like to kick box each other in my tornaolayzers and she dosent even mind getting hit |
Man, Chief might actually cut a bit one we get into the stronger ASV hours. He won't end up looking quite so bad here --- http://i.minus.com/jbiGPMGVHJkJ5F.png http://i.minus.com/jbjrjeszi5Bojs.jpg http://i.minus.com/jDswy1q7MCAye.jpg http://i.minus.com/jX6dhkFSD8ugm.jpg |
Would Master Chief lose to any of the following characters? Altair Peach Gordon Freeman Terra Albert Wesker KOS-MOS Crash Bandicoot He'd probably only win against crash peach and wesker, and kos-mos might upset him. |
There's the first cut --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 48/60 Today's Picks: Dragonborn and M Chief |
And there's the first cut. This probably will end up respectable. He's already at 44% on Yuna. |
Chief's got this Yuna is so screwed. --- ~War~ |
Chief almost always loses 'respectably'. but that's small consolation when he always loses --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |

So
I decide to finally check in on this contest, voted to Claire even
though I chose Chief to win I jsut refuse to vote for him and what do I
find? Yuna? wat my bracket in the trash --- @w@ Gamertag: SliceSabre |
Yeah, Chief may get embarrassed all the time, but he never loses badly, even against Noble Nine characters he has done okay. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 48/60 Today's Picks: Dragonborn and M Chief |
Karma Hunter posted... Chief almost always loses 'respectably'. Yeah I just read up on his contest history. This wouldn't be the first or even second time he ended up shaving a crapload of percentage from a Square character's margin of victory. But yeah, he is now officially Master Choke. Master Chump. I dunno, something like that. Seeing Master Chief flop is funny though. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
LinkMarioSamus posted... 1337gamerpr0 posted...haha, Claire is beating Chief in Europe .... ..... not sure if serious |
Denzokuken posted... Yeah, FFX is the favourite Final Fantasy of the kiddies (their first JRPG), FFVII gets more respect from older fans. Don't buy the overlap between the two. Describe "kiddies" cause FFX came out 12<edit> years ago. Anyone who was 10 when it came out is now 22. --- https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BMcwhStCYAAr-mC.jpg Dallas Cowboys and Mavs |
1337gamerpr0 posted... LinkMarioSamus posted...1337gamerpr0 posted...haha, Claire is beating Chief in Europe Well I read it on TV Tropes. But yeah, not sure if that's serious. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Chief is just lucky this is a day match so he can go out looking okay. He's almost caught up to Yuna in the U.S. and should pass her soon. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
My favorite Chief loss is still to Sub-Zero. --- ~FFDragon. (at Work !!) The Cream of Resident Evil Fanboyism. |

1337gamerpr0 posted... LinkMarioSamus posted...1337gamerpr0 posted...haha, Claire is beating Chief in Europe Despite The Xbox and Xbox 360 selling poorly in Japan, the Halo series is quite popular over there. While not insanely popular as it is in the west It is popular for an Xbox game there . In fact Western games as a whole have been becoming more popular as of late in Japan. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
GameFAQs Japan does not represent overall Japan that well, for one thing they don't like Nintendo very much. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 48/60 Today's Picks: Dragonborn and M Chief |

GameFaqs japanese also seem to like grand theft auto a lot. I'm sure Americans who frequent japanese sites would have japanese taste in games so it's not surprising. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Most of the people who come to GameFAQS from Japan are probably Americans. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
LinkMarioSamus posted... 1337gamerpr0 posted...LinkMarioSamus posted...1337gamerpr0 posted...haha, Claire is beating Chief in Europe "The Elephant's Foot", a formation of reactor core lava in Chernobylnote which was so radioactive, just looking at it would kill you on the spot. Like the classical Medusa, a heroic Russian physicist risked his life to journey into the bowels of the reactor to take pictures and find out what was going on down there; he had to use a mirror to take pictures of it from the adjoining hallway. Why did he "volunteer" to do this? Because (a) he was old enough not to worry about inevitably dying of cancer from background exposure (which he did later; they all did) and (b) the robot they sent to take photos of the reactor core lava had its circuits fried due to radiation, while a human could move quickly through the same hallway as long as he did not look into the open doorway itself. It's probably for the best to take a lot of things you read on tvtropes with a grain of salt. --- Brawl FC - 1332 8069 6690 http://i.imgur.com/OZ9aS.png |
That doesn't explain their trends to be more western oriented than domestic Americans. If anything I would expect americans in japan to follow japanese trends all the more. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
Xbox 360 sold less than 2 million in Japan, that's all you need to know now granted, the paltry vote totals from there means that the ones that actually voted are probably foreigners :D |
Radiation that only kills you when you look at it, badass --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
We don't get enough Japanese voters to form enough of a sample size. It's not a very big contributor to our votes. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
charmander6000 posted... GameFAQs Japan does not represent overall Japan that well, for one thing they don't like Nintendo very much. The Metroidvania genre is hugely popular in the West, but only a niche genre in Japan. In addition to Metroid and Castlevania themselves, games like Blaster Master and Cave Story have also been subject to this trend. The Legend of Zelda is on the list of "Japanese games better known outside of Japan", as of the 2000s. While Ocarina of Time was as much of a best-seller as anywhere else, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and The Legend Of Zelda Twilight Princess in particular had disappointing sales in their homeland, despite Famitsu giving Wind Waker a perfect 40. Shigeru Miyamoto even commented on it once, saying the West apparently has a bigger preference for these types of games than Japan does. While Mario is the poster boy for video games everywhere, his Video Game 3D Leap wasn't as popular in Japan (for one, the Sega Saturn kept outselling the Nintendo 64 for a long time there). New Super Mario Bros Wii outsold Super Mario Galaxy within just 3 days of its Japan release. Similarily, the Mario RPGs have done much better in the Western markets, selling around a million copies in North America alone, while they barely break 400,000 in Japan. This may be why the character Fawful, who became something of an Ensemble Darkhorse in America due to his Intentional Engrish for Funny translation, was made the main villain of Mario And Luigi Bowsers Inside Story. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Sorry I didn't see the Chernobyl radiation post until after I finished making my post. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Radiation that only kills you when you look at it, badass If you can see it then you are too close. >_> --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 48/60 Today's Picks: Dragonborn and M Chief |
Japan
gives so few votes that many (most?) of them are likely foreigners. The
Phillippines gives us a surprisingly high number of votes and is a good
place to look at to see how East Asia is voting. Yuna has 52% of the
vote there. --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
If Japan affected our contests to a notable degree, Cloud would never lose to Link. --- tune in tokyo 142.94 |
Chief 12% and last, Ireland always gets it right. n_n --- Smurf, the cream of Sonic Fanboyism. |
If Japan had an impact Lightning would probably end up champion this year >_> --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |

Yeah Philippines from my experience is a big on Sony (probably bigger than this site is on average) --- Want any VNs pre-patched? PM me. List of VNs can be found by clicking on my username. |

MegatokyoEd posted... If Japan had an impact, Yuri Lowell could be in the Noble Nine. This would make me so happy. Yuri Lowell better than what I know from the Noble Nine combined. I haven't played any MGS or Metroid. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |

So in this match we have battle of the asses and in the next match battle of the boobs? --- 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~ |
Lightning
is going to look pretty bad this contest, I think. She'll take a big
hit from the bad reception FFXIII has suffered over the years. DK would
have this if Falco wasn't there! --- tune in tokyo 142.94 |
