GameFAQs Contests
Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1220
I
think Link's Awakening has a real shot at Top 25. We often cite RBY and
GSC as the only handheld games with power, but LA has been unfairly
drowned in a sea of console Zeldas. I would have rather seen it in this
contest instead of Twilight Princess. --- http://i.imgur.com/gByqgPg.gif |

So,
does anyone besides Yuri think we will see a legit rally for the
Witcher 3? With how much Metal Gear Solid has been bombing, I am getting
concerned about The Witcher 3 pulling the same upset on MGS2 that Dark
Souls is doing today... In a close match, it wouldn't take much to swing
a close match. --- Yay - Raytan is the guru champion of awesomeness. (edited 11/26/2015 8:29:58 PM)report |
I mean, it could happen, but it's not really something we can predict either way. Not much to talk about. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
first of all, never take anything of his seriously I mean, they could. I hate relying on rallies for a win though. Witcher 3 also has the potential to just totally bomb. --- xyzzy |
transience posted... I'd love to see all of us work out a top 20 right now and see how it goes. here's what I would expect to be a consensus top 25, Undertale excluded for obvious reasons Looks pretty good. Issues: -Fallout 3 is probably more worthy of a spot than a lot of these games. It of course beat Metroid Prime in GotD and could probably match or exceed Mario RPG's 54.43% on Oblivion. -Kingdom Hearts got 48.91% on FFIX. Either FFIX is like 25th and this is 26th or it should be on here. -Mass Effect 2. This games seem like it should be strong and I guess we'll see if this game can live up to expectations soon but it hasn't remotely proven itself yet. -Potential dark horse pick (mentioning Super Metroid as a potential dark horse for top 20 earlier in the contest seems to have worked real well!): Symphony of the Night? I guess we'll see if it can live up to that Trials & Tribulations performance since both it and fellow potential top 25er FFIX face Ocarina of Time. And then there's that 2 seed. Yeah, newer games with high seeds bomb all the time and lower in the seedings we sometimes get games with dedicated fanbase nab a seed much higher than they deserve. But a game as old as this getting a 2 seed? If our pre-contest thoughts on this game's strength are remotely accurate, it would pretty much be the only really old game to get wildly overseeded. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Fallout 3 was the one game I felt bad about excluding. it's eliminated though so including it is purely academic. --- xyzzy |
I've
been hearing about Witcher's rally potential all contest, and we know
it didn't need it last round so it explains not seeing it then...so, I
dunno, we'll see. --- M E N: nominate Metal Man in 20XX! http://i.imgur.com/Dr4NAeq.png |
For
every Undertale or Draven that actually rides a successful rally, there
are a million rallies that people predict but never end up
materializing. It's obviously not impossible for Witcher to get enough rally support to trounce MGS2, but man oh man am I skeptical. I guess we'll find out if it's an Undertale or a Minecraft in a matter of hours. --- Now crack that combination: 27 99 23. |
I
am nervous because it beat the Binding of Isaac, which might just be
weaker than Hearthstone. But, MGS has looked all around terrible... I just don't know what to make of this one... --- Yay - Raytan is the guru champion of awesomeness. |
Hype for a Chrono Cross match --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
MGS2 is older it wins --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
Every
game has a reddit and most have twitter pages. It takes something
really special for a rally to work. The issue is that when it does, it
does for the rest of the contest. --- Watch me play games! http://www.twitch.tv/lordofdabu |
MGS2 wins because something something THE LIST --- Now crack that combination: 27 99 23. |
wow I get to vote for mgs2 in the same day? Forgot about that --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
I
don't think Witcher 3 needed a rally to beat MGS2, it's not like MGS2
is hot stuff, but at the same time, I'm not sure one game from 2010 on
has been remotely impressive. 2015 games? Even worse! --- satoru iwata |
Everything's a 70% blowout --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |

MGS2 falling fast --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
Super Mario RPG is out for blood. Witcher looks like might just have this, holy hell. --- Now crack that combination: 27 99 23. |
re4 already at 65? that worries me. seems like it could finish around 60 which I think is a poor show. --- xyzzy |
Mario RPG probably drops down to 60%~ by the end of this just due to its nonexistent Euro vote --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Come on CC hold onto that percentage. Show em you have a shot at SMRPG --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
"A vote from this registered user has already been submitted. You may only vote in any given poll a single time." uh i don't think this is true gamefaqs. you might want to check that. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
I'm going to laugh if San Andreas ends up doing worse than World of Warcraft --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. (edited 11/26/2015 9:02:59 PM)report |
Looks like both GTAs will make this respectable --- BGE3: Today's Matches SMRPG>GTAV, CC>GTA:SA, MGS2>Witcher 3, RE4>Fallout: NV Points 95/112 |
Keep in mind that GTAV and San Andreas went up a lot after the board vote last round. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
GTA5 = Oblivion? hrm --- xyzzy |
Damn, I'm one of the four 98s not on the leaderboard Hope some people believed in GTA! --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
MGS2 back over 60% transience posted... GTA5 = Oblivion? hrm that would mean Shenmue 3 hype was real! --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |

transience posted... re4 already at 65? that worries me. seems like it could finish around 60 which I think is a poor show. Yeah but Mario RPG looks disappointing out the gate too. I might even take New Vegas over GTAV, so I'd say RE4 looks pretty good as far as winning this division goes. Hell, Mario RPG might be the least impressive SNES game so far, and I don't understand why. It's Nintendo AND Square (maybe that's why). --- http://i.imgur.com/gByqgPg.gif |
This make me really wish Paper Mario was somewhere else in the bracket!! --- Yay - Raytan is the guru champion of awesomeness. |
SMRPG has to get through Chrono Cross first --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png LongLiveraytan |
And with that, my bracket is gone. Only on this site is SMRPG beating gta v. --- XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak PSN ID - Kudaark Steam Name : skaalfa |
it's
too bad none of these look close or else i could jokingly claim bacon
is trying to influence the matches by erroneously claiming i've voted
already --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
I didn't expect unrallied Witcher 3 to be this weak or I wouldn't have gone with the upset. |
pjbasis posted... SMRPG has to get through Chrono Cross first ah Chrono Cross fans --- satoru iwata |
I'm not thinking about Mario RPG. I'm thinking about MGS/ME2. --- xyzzy |
