Wind Waker got 56.20% on Oblivion in 2010.

54%+ for Super Mario RPG is pretty good, especially for a game with literally no traction in Europe. I feel like people are going hindsight bias on Mario RPG after how strong the first hour was by saying this isn't a good showing, but beating Oblivion by a decent margin is a good win.

Very few people had any serious expectations pre-contest that it could potentially beat RE4, so we're basically right where we were with SMRPG all along.


Love how people just assume it's going to even reach RE4. It could still lose to GTA next round.

Because he reads them
The only reason he has an ignore list is that he can tell others to ignore the same users as well, and he thinks he is superior to those he ignored
But you think he will pass on the chance to see people talking about him? pff as if

SFF makes sense for a character contest, where someone like Vincent might derive most of his strength from FFVII and lose all that strength when facing Cloud. But I don't see how it works in a games contest. Voters seem capable of deciphering one game from another, franchise or not.

It's going to win the final with at least 55% of the vote. It obliterates everything. I guess you're being sarcastic?

It's good, but definitely different from Earthbound. It's still got all the quirkiness, just a much darker tone. The weight of the conflict really hangs over the game in a way that you never really get in Earthbound Until the end

I'd expect about 80-20. You think it would be worse? It seems like SFF would give the weaker game some constant strength just because it has the franchise tag on it. XY certainly didn't have that against Zelda.

The strongest games don't just have largest audience willing to vote for them but also tend to be more beloved than weaker games. Therefore when one of the top dogs faces off against another game from the same franchise that's weaker, a lot of voters who would normally go for the weaker game against most other opponents defect to the stronger game that they like more.

Oh, yeah. And I saw an username called "Fatestaykitchen".

Men that think women should in the kitchen should remember: It's where all the knives are.


I think that's a reference to an anime named Fate/stay Night, not a political statement.
It's totally understandable for Ulti to hate Chrono Cross. It's my favorite game of all time and even I'll admit that the game is a f***ing mess. Chrono Cross was also very hyped at its release but ended up being a disappointment because it wasn't a Chrono Trigger sequel, both gameplay-wise and story-wise. That disappointment and "wtf?" feeling can linger for a long time.

But yea it's great that you're interested in giving the game another chance. You should play Radical Dreamers too, it's only 3-4 hours long I think. Some aspects of Cross are explained better too, and Serge actually has character (!).

haha yea that's pretty childish. Ulti's weird.

What proper sequel can you even give a game like Chrono Trigger. And without the whole dream team reassembled, I'm not sure why you'd even want a direct sequel. Chrono Cross's sideways development and variation on the theme of travel through time and space was pretty much the only way the franchise was going to continue. And the only reason we never saw more of it is because development times across the board exploded in the last two generations which meant no more side projects, much to the chagrin of Brave Fencer Musashi and Threads of Fate fans everywhere.


That one ROM hack sequel that some fans made was a better sequel than CC was. You don't need the dream team assembled, just take the original and iterate on it, like any great sequel. The worst sequels are the games that feel the need to make fundamental changes over the original. Rarely do those changes work out (Mass Effect 2 being an exception for public/critical acclaim, although I always have and always will prefer the original).

Chrono Cross isn't a 1/10 terrible game on its own. Take the Chrono out of the title and it becomes a mid-tier 5/10 PS1 RPG that's not quite as good as Legend of Dragoon. My biggest beef is the horrible battle system mechanics and lack of character specific techs and traditional leveling. The game is beautiful and the soundtrack is amazing, but the story completely takes a **** on the charming CT story. The other big nitpick I had with the game is that it takes place in a small, previously 'undiscovered' subsection of the main CT world. Why would they do that?

The statistical disection and crazy guestimation on half botched theories about popularity of video games for a popularity contest is very impressive and equally sad as you could literally spend these countless hours doing -something- productive.


I literally owe my career to this board and dissection of statistics. If it wasn't for these contests I probably would not be as heavily interested in statistics as I am to begin with. And you cannot get really good at something without doing it a LOT.... if it weren't for these contests I wouldn't have as much experience studying trends and everything.

I don't understand why people have ignore lists. You don't like someone, that is fine but you have to listen what he has to say. Because we have to respect everyone's opinion, even though we don't like it.
Now though do you really think CC will win the next match too?

As for the whole ignore list thing, I refuse to censor people for any reason even if I think they are hateful or stupid. Sounds like SJWism if you ask me. But I will not argue with people's decision to use it.

The people that use ignore lists are the same people that think the world revolves around them and that noone can ever criticize their behavior. The problem there is that using the ignore list just makes things worse, as these people no longer realize they're behaving like a moron. You see it all the time when drama queens in their late 20s that act like they're in high school still post on Facebook that they need to 'cut out the negativity in their lives'. No, you just need to start behaving like an adult and the negativity will suddenly disappear.

Undertale's great. I didn't care too much for Earthbound years ago when I tried it, yet Undertale makes me want to give it another shot because it's so good.

As I often do lately, if Undertale fans are looking for another similar game, then I recommend LISA (the Painful)...2D status-based indie-RPG that isn't as polished as Undertale but still does some real fascinating things.
