Zelda II should be removed from canon for ruining the pattern there is what I'm getting out of that.

Using FF7 instead of FFVII for instance.

I do wish they retconned the title to just be The Legend of Zelda: The Adventure of Link

what are you talking about

B8 has this weird love for Yoshi's Island you don't see most places


It's a widely loved game that some random people here seem to really hate.

Also, FFVIII's performance here doesn't surprise me. I think we're seeing a big drop in strength for modern Final Fantasy this contest.

Isn't it sad how virtually nothing from the past ten years would be in the "all-time best 2D platformers" discussion? I feel like the genre has actually seen a bit of a resurgence in the 2010s, but few of these newer titles have felt as revelatory.

I will say that I absolutely loved Kirby Mass Attack and consider it the best title in the franchise. You want to see the Nintendo charm that they "just don't make anymore"? There it is.

The Character Battle IX people's champ.
I still feel like Fallout 3 vs. Mario World's gonna be good, even if I dunno who I'd take between Life is Strange and New Leaf.

Edit: Man I never pay attention to AC games.

Life is Strange for sure.



But New Leaf would win

I'd take Animal Crossing there just on name recognition.

would feel weird taking animal crossing to win a match though

Well, you can not count it if you want, it doesn't effect anything since it's the last in the timeline, and they'll never have a game after it.

I wish they changed the name on releases too, but one thing I will say, it does make it so saying Zelda games is not TECHNICALLY incorrect, obviously it's really the Legend of Zelda games, but they themselves did call the second one Zelda II, so there is that.

define "modern"

because FFVII looked just fine

FFX did, too

I'm putting Mario World among the elite of the contest, like I'd say top 5. Not sure how close I'm willing to give Fallout to that. What is everyone expecting FF8 to do?

Against Smash 4? I imagine it'll put a good beat down on it.

Honestly, modern FF has done pretty much what I expected it to thus far. FFVI really exceeded my expectations, but other than that, nothing too surprising from any of them. Like I said, this was what I expected from FFVIII pre-contest but you all talked me out of that!

Why did NoA call it Zelda II then? It was a sequel the the undisputed best game ever at that time, what reason would you not use that name again?
I only took FFVIII to 65% assuming a GTA deboost the likes of Halo seems to have.

So if GTA stayed strong it's not that bad.

It's possible Last of Us is legit. I mean, Halo has probably dropped because it's almost inextricably tied to the Xbox's popularity, and the Xbone isn't popular here right now, not like the 360 was during GOTD.

Smash isn't beating FF7. Not seeing it. It's like Wind Waker against FF6. It's looking for a good upset, but neither FF looked bad. They actually looked great.

This is key, on top of Halo's general decline since Bungie left after Reach.

I actually don't think FFVII's performance was very good at all. Journey has had only one previous poll, but it did feature it getting more than tripled by Assassin's Creed III. I'm not saying SSB4 will win, but that match could shock some people. Journey may actually be the weakest game in the contest and FF7 didn't kill it like it needed to.

i'd certainly take Planescape: Torment over Journey!

Probably for text real estate. I don't know if famicom cartridges had the same layout, but trying to get "The Legend of Zelda II: Link's Adventure" on the top tab of the game sticker might have been too rough so they shortened it.

What the hell is a Planescape

I'm all about giving some PC games their due (I made comments all day about AOE2), but people have to actually know them for that to work! If Journey lost that I'd be shocked, just on the basis that people have heard of it and know what it is.

journey was actually well liked game, has anyone even heard of planescape?

also FFVII is not the game to break 90% on anything, it just get too many antivotes for that.

Dude, Planescape is extremely popular on any PC site. It's not an unknown among WRPG fans! Granted, GameFAQs isn't a PC site but it's not a Journey site either.

GameFAQs is so far off from being a PC site! WRPGs that are popular here were done so through console exposure! Journey hit consoles -- two of them! -- which is more than Planescape did by double. I keep convincing myself of Journey the more we discuss this.

I just don't think Journey had any presense here on GameFAQs. I'll take the old-school WRPG over the indie artsy experience game simply because the former has 'RPG' in it somewhere.

Really pointless either way though, doesn't change anything. On a better note, Undertale's holding up pretty well! Not looking jokey or anything. Could've beaten some games in this bracket.

Yeah, I would take Journey > Planescape in a heartbeat. I think the best sign for FFVII though is that it looked VERY stable trend-wise throughout the day. So it doesn't seem to be getting terribly anti-voted anymore.
I'm amazed, but at least it exists in some accessible form.
---
satoru iwata
keep in mind that if Planescape and Journey are equal FFVII wins with 62%

so even if Planescape wins it wouldn't be by enough to make that a close match
