http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/1648-division-128-round-2-grand-theft-auto-vice-city-vs-super Seriously, what happened? GTA appeals to the main demographic of GameFAQs, and never ran itself into the ground with yearly games like CoD/Assassin's Creed or mediocre sequels like Halo. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. Congrats to CBIX Guru Winner *Raytan*! |
GTAV just broke 60% against the mighty Shenmue --- BGE3: Today's Matches GTAV>Shenmue, SMRPG>Oblivion, GTA:SA>SK, CC>WoW Points 42/48 |
GTAV over 60%, CC under 60%, SMRPG holding firm, SA goes up slightly. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Whiskey_Nick posted... so... SMRPG is Majora's Mask level in GotD? The gotd is overrated man(not the games the strength) i can list 10 games not from that era that would definitely be a contender to win the damn thing and that doesnt include oot or ffvii. --- http://k09.kn3.net/1256263BF.gif |
Guess both Halo and GTA are still extremely hated on GameFAQs. It's just that AC and CoD are hated even more. While we're at it, we may as well call WoW hated if it loses like this to Chrono Cross--a game itself that has a significant number of haters. --- Ole, ole, ole, ole. Ole! Ole! (Accents and inverted !-marks missing) On a bet with three other users on if a certain girl genie will be in Smash; I say no. |
Looks like I'm probably perfecting this half division yay --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
On one hand, I'm glad I called SMRPG right. Knew it would be a beast. On the other, good LORD World of Warcraft f***ing SUCKS. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
guffguy89 posted... seriously, how many people have even played Chrono Cross. Ideologically, there is no way this should lose to World of Warcraft. Most people who voted probably haven't played either. But they're more likely to vote for CC because it's a Square RPG. Usually when I vote on a match where I haven't played either, I vote for the one I think I would like more. Or that's from a genre that I enjoy more. And Gamefaqs voters would definitely prefer CC to WOW. Also the Chrono name helps quite a bit, otherwise it would probably be as strong as Legend of Dragoon or Legend of Legaia. |
Haha I have GTA V > San Andreas. --- Ngamer64: Zylo, you're making less sense every day. Raytan > Me |
had wow winning another match after this one....this 4 pack is ridiculous. |
There goes 7 points |
I'd say it's more likely it'll be like Skyrim and we'll see the real strength a little while from now once the board vote dies. Will it beat SMRPG? Probably not. But it'll look more respectable than it does now. |
lmao GTA --- raytan stepped on me in the guru contest. |
I don't know what to think of any of these results. Shenmue might be the strongest we've ever seen it, which isn't saying much, because of Shenmue 3 hype. Oblivion has probably significantly weakened. Shovel Knight - who knows? WoW is probably weak as hell now too, so is this even good for Cross? (edited 11/16/2015 9:13:34 PM)report |

(Ngamer voice): Well, I think this is all going to come down to people taking the "Game of the Decade" title seriously, and do people seriously believe that a game not from the decade is the Game of the Decade? |
Yes, I knew San Andreas would do terrible. Hopefully Shovel Knight can pull out a win. --- Tangy's Quest to beat the Final Fantasies: I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X, XII, XIII |
I
could see Shovel Knight having some strength, really. It's huge for an
indie game, and for a site that never left the 90s, being a Mega Man
clone should be a huge plus! --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
GTAV = TWEWY lol --- Not changing this sig until the Bengals, Bills, Lions and Colt McCoy win the Super Bowl (10/10/10) ~User of the Year 2015~ |
My one consolation is that I have Chrono Cross winning its fourpack. --- http://i.imgur.com/M1heX2g.jpg RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
Amd I have WoW > CC..... ThereGoesBracket.jpg --- IGN: Raymond, 3DS FC: 1349-7340-1111 (ORAS) / 3DS FC #2:4785-7678-2315 (XY & Rumble World) http://myanimelist.net/animelist/raytan7585 |
Eh, I think San Andreas is safe. It'll look terrible, of course, but I doubt Shovel Knight makes a serious run at this. hashtag blackpicsmatter --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
I remember ulti saying oblivion would win I'm blaming him for this |
LOLContests posted... http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/1648-division-128-round-2-grand-theft-auto-vice-city-vs-super One has aged better than the other. Seriously, a HUGE amount of people still play Melee. --- http://www.last.fm/user/VinnyMendoza "This is all we have... when we die.." |
did SMRPG just go up there goes me --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
LeonhartFour posted... Whiskey_Nick posted...so... SMRPG is Majora's Mask level in GotD? Are people really that surprised by this? Did we all forget this poll? - http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/4425-what-is-your-all-time-favorite-nintendo-game-on-the-snes The top 4 first party SNES games were: 1. Legend of Zelda: LTTP - 28.88% 2. Super Mario World - 17.49% 3. Super Mario RPG - 12.8% 4. Super Metroid - 11.38% Super Mario RPG has always been a top tier SNES game. I struggled choosing between between Metal Gear Solid 2 and Super Mario RPG in the division finals, but finally went with MGS2 (mostly because I thought MGSV would boost the whole series). But at this point, I honestly would not be surprised to see Super Mario RPG make it to the Final Four against OOT. --- Yay - Raytan is the guru champion of awesomeness. |
Ooh, look at us voting against GTA. We're so hip! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cidQVcioumo --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. Congrats to CBIX Guru Winner *Raytan*! |
GTA looks abysmal today, good lord --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Yeah,
I also doubt Shovel Knight is fodder. That campaign to get him in Sm4sh
snowballed into something surprisingly big - I feel like this gave the
game itself a lot of extra exposure. GTAV definitely looks like more of an embarrassment than San Andreas. --- JAK The Character Battle IX people's champ. |
Hey, I've been one of the biggest proponents of SMRPG's strength for a long time! cyko posted... I struggled choosing between between Metal Gear Solid 2 and Super Mario RPG in the division finals, but finally went with MGS2 wait what --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
so let's ask the important question skyrim goldeneye metroid prime half-life 2 go --- xyzzy |
If the current results hold I'm getting 4/4 here. This should make up for my massive blunder with Xenoblade. |
Who
actually has gtav over smrpg? I mean seriously. Its such an obvious
pick. I never hesitated over that. Old rpgs will always win. If golden
sun can beat san andreas. Smrpg can at least double gtav --- http://k09.kn3.net/1256263BF.gif |
Huh, CC jumped back over 60%. SMRPG has basically stabilized already. This is pretty impressive on its part. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Yuri_LowelI posted... Who actually has gtav over smrpg? I mean seriously. Its such an obvious pick. I never hesitated over that. Old rpgs will always win. If golden sun can beat san andreas. Smrpg can at least double gtav I didn't think twice about taking SMRPG to the division finals either. It's nice to see it get such a favorable draw this time around - it's still my favorite Mario RPG. --- JAK The Character Battle IX people's champ. |
Why would anyone pick someone other than the SMRPG/Oblivion winner to escape from this eight pack? |
You guys I just noticed I accidentally picked fallout 3 > smw ...lol --- SephirothG post http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1268566/awwyeah.gif |
Yeah,
GTAV is doing way worse. San Andreas might end up around 63% or so from
here, which isn't any worse than it's done in the past. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. Congrats to CBIX Guru Winner *Raytan*! |
Eh, I doubt San Andreas is even getting close to 60% at this point. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |

Hopefully enough people screwed up this eightpack for me to finally get on the leaderboard. Too many 43s! --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
Mershaaay posted... You guys I just noticed I accidentally picked fallout 3 > smw Well, if certain things happen, that could be an inconsequential loss. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! Future 2015 Guru Contest winner. |
SMRPG
is strong. It put up 33% on Chrono Trigger, in the same year that SMW
only put up 41%, and it has great reason to have suffered extensive SFF. Also, winning GOTD for the 00's is less impressive than winning a random year's GOTY in the 90s. 90, 91, 92, 95, 96, 97, and 98 all have games that would beat Majora's Mask. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
LordoftheMorons posted... Hopefully enough people screwed up this eightpack for me to finally get on the leaderboard. Too many 43s! I'd be surprised if WoW isn't a big favorite with the casuals, especially with the seeding disparity. Not sure who the favorite is between Oblivion and SMRPG, but yeah, this day ought to wreck a ton of casuals. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Mershaaay posted... You guys I just noticed I accidentally picked fallout 3 > smw There's a good chance that Undertale bails you out. --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
Also
in this new environment, I wouldn't be too surprised if FFVI managed to
pull off the win against MM either, which could make 1994 a winner. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
Man, it sucks to get Oblivion wrong here...just hope it's not gonna be our biggest blowout today. I'm not surprised about Shovel Knight -- almost took that upset, but Shenmue being competitive in any sense is a real shocker. GTA's still GTA I guess. Chrono across is still looking good to win its four-pack. --- M E N: nominate Metal Man in 20XX! http://i.imgur.com/Dr4NAeq.png |
