GameFAQs Contests
Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1222
actually, the last 15 minutes has been MGS3 with 52% maybe ME2 does have a good shot --- xyzzy |
Karma Hunter posted... I suppose it's possible EB is worth something? It got SFFed to hell in 2009 and the only read we have before that is the lol 2004 stats. But if MGS goes on to look decent I'm not buying it having increased that much - I'd rather partially attribute a hardcore EB/Mother 3 fanbase or pic factor or Weekend After Thanksgiving Factor than that kind of ridiculous strength. Well, of all the old games between 2009/10 and now, EarthBound got released in the US and EU for the first time since it came out. And then Nintendo released the original game on the NES for the first time, made a big deal of it at E3, and generally has acknowledged and pushed the game since. On top of that, you have a way smaller voting pool of older, mid-20s types, and old school games thriving so all that mixed together seems like a good recipe for success. --- satoru iwata |
I legitimately don't think MGS3 would be doing any better here than ME2 is If Starcraft is back to 2004 levels than it's pretty damn strong --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
this contest has hated me ever since Majora > FFX I sometimes wonder what sort of wonderful alternate universe I missed out on by FFX not winning GOTD --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Yes
undertale beat popular games but lets be real. Western games arent all
that. I mean if me2 or skyrim are the strongest western games then
undertale will need to step it up for the elite japanese games. --- http://k09.kn3.net/1256263BF.gif |
...So I guess Borderlands 2 might have been decent after all? --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
AxemRedRanger posted... ...So I guess Borderlands 2 might have been decent after all? Xenoblade too! 2012 redeemed --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
KamikazePotato posted... Undertale beat two popular games when its picture was of a black-and-white winking flower. Pics really don't matter for games. Especially in a match like that. I feel like you're taking this too seriously but really Mario World gonna lay it down. Fallout and Mass Effect are joke games next to Mario World. New games got nothing --- satoru iwata |
LeonhartFour posted... this contest has hated me ever since Majora > FFX Sorry dude but brawl beating ffx would have been the most horrible result in contest history. Id take undertale winning and draven winning over that piece of s*** winning GOTD. Imagine winning GOTD and then failing to be in the best games ever contest. It would be a new low for this site. And lets not act like ffx would beat brawl. Only way it would get taken down is a strong zelda --- http://k09.kn3.net/1256263BF.gif |
Yuri_LowelI posted... Sorry dude but brawl beating ffx would have been the most horrible result in contest history. good thing it wouldn't have happened! --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
AxemRedRanger posted... ...So I guess Borderlands 2 might have been decent after all? It won goty. So its not complete fodder. Lets not act like borders is destiny tier garbage. --- http://k09.kn3.net/1256263BF.gif |
LeonhartFour posted... Yuri_LowelI posted...Sorry dude but brawl beating ffx would have been the most horrible result in contest history. i'm sorry it's just too much to risk to even introduce the slightest chance of brawl winning gotd can not be allowed the timeline must not be altered --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
LeonhartFour posted... Yuri_LowelI posted...Sorry dude but brawl beating ffx would have been the most horrible result in contest history. Well well never know. But we do know what really did happen. Ssbb lost and majora beat ffx And i was there rallying for it. For the greater good. For the greater good. --- http://k09.kn3.net/1256263BF.gif |
there are many villains who commit the worst atrocities in the name of "the greater good" --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Regardless of whether Starcraft, Destiny f***ing sucked. What happened? Is the game really that bad? --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |
LeonhartFour posted... ME3 validated too! If undertale wins this contest and the rallies get bigger. Me3 could end up #2 on xstats --- http://k09.kn3.net/1256263BF.gif |
Also lost in this... SotC is bleeding a lot of percentage to RDR right now. Earthbound v Red Dead Redemption, who ya got --- Welcome to the League of Stickies. |
hey Leon, what happens if we set MGS/SOTC/MGS3/ME2 at 50% and calculate x-stats based off of that I feel like SOTC is pretty clearly the weak link here just because of Bayo2 --- xyzzy |
Karma Hunter posted... Earthbound v Red Dead Redemption, who ya got Earthbound LeonhartFour posted... Borderlands 2 vs. RDR is the better question which one is DAT LEFT OPTION --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
So I guess there was no big Witcher 3 rally yesterday? --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
UltimaterializerX posted... Regardless of whether Starcraft, Destiny f***ing sucked. I mentioned this last week but destiny has nothing going for it. It didnt win goty like your borderlands or have great showings on polls like red dead. It doesnt have core fanbases like xenoblade. It doesnt have critical respect either like a bioshock or sotc. It just has a high playrate and is a diablo/halo style shooter. An average one. It was bound to be complete and utter turd. --- http://k09.kn3.net/1256263BF.gif |
LeonhartFour posted... ME3 validated too! I can buy this as well. But then The Walking Dead was way up there too and everything goes to hell from there! --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
LeonhartFour posted... this contest has hated me ever since Majora > FFX A universe where I don't win the GotD guru is not a universe worth living in --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy -trancer1 lol xstats |
Janus5k posted... So I guess there was no big Witcher 3 rally yesterday? Big? No. I guess not enough people rallied. Only three if us. Dont worry though. My melee rallying will work. --- http://k09.kn3.net/1256263BF.gif |
yeah no, I'd rather you not jinx Melee |
transience posted... hey Leon, what happens if we set MGS/SOTC/MGS3/ME2 at 50% and calculate x-stats based off of that Currently: Metal Gear Solid 50.00% Shadow of the Colossus 50.00% Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater 50.00% Mass Effect 2 50.00% Starcraft 47.26% EarthBound 42.97% BioShock 42.86% Red Dead Redemption 38.38% Borderlands 2 35.56% Silent Hill 2 33.06% Mother 3 30.50% Bayonetta 2 27.64% Team Fortress 2 27.31% Destiny 24.11% Splatoon 20.93% Zero Escape: Virtues Last Reward 20.92% --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |

Man
judging by MGS's rise and MGS3's fall we're gonna have MGS3 winning at
the beginning of that (hypothetical) match followed by MGS blowing it
away for 23 hours straight --- Welcome to the League of Stickies. |
yeah,
I like MGS's numbers the best there and they're only going to look
better by the end of this unless there's a rally. MGS > MGS3/ME2 >
SOTC looks right. --- xyzzy |

Business as usual. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Man that rallying threw MGS2's trends more out of whack than even I expected, yeesh --- Welcome to the League of Stickies. |
MGS3 has fallen below MGS1's percentage. Man, it didn't take long for MGS3 to go from "kind of impressive" to "kind of bad" Keep in mind that KH2 got 56.27% on BioShock and MGS3 is only 1% above that --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Why does this board love MGS3 so much how can people unironically prefer it to MGS this is just proof we entered the dark reality somewhere around GOTD --- Welcome to the League of Stickies. |
...okay, SOTC is screwed. It's going to fall below MGS's percentage if it keeps tanking like this. e: and I said that just in time for SotC to double RDR on the next update, well played my old nemesis --- Welcome to the League of Stickies. (edited 11/27/2015 10:31:04 PM)report |
Yesterday,
Tennessee voted for Fallout: New Vegas over Resident Evil 4. That was
its first miss of the contest, and that also means that North Carolina
is the only state left to have voted for the winner every single time so
far. (edited 11/27/2015 10:31:55 PM)report |
Nick's reddit thread gained a bit of traction, ugh --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
Looking at the regionals if the U.S. shrinks any more for ME this could become a very close match. --- Hello, I'm Chris! https://media.giphy.com/media/2ZtIpjwFFjLHLNREpCU/giphy.gif |
Well, maybe our contest is still capable of no-selling some rallying. ...kinda doubt it though. --- Welcome to the League of Stickies. |
...wasn't Nick just saying he was against single match rallying on The Show --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |

MGS3
is an amazing game. I loved going all rambo with the camo and eating
system, and it was the only MGS I've played (I admittedly only played
three) that got me really emotional. I think a lot of people simply
remember 3's ending and get all nostalgic. --- http://i.imgur.com/gByqgPg.gif |
People
don't have especially resolute principles when it comes to a contest
about voting for people's favorite games on gamefaqs.com, news at 11 --- Welcome to the League of Stickies. |
Yeah,
the iconic and enduring image of the entire MGS series is Big Boss's
salute at the end of MGS3. It excels at its emotional appeal, and that's
why it's so fondly remembered. It decided to go from trying to blow
your mind at the end of MGS2 to trying to touch your heart at the end of
MGS3, and for most people, that was a good move. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
LeonhartFour posted... LordoftheMorons posted......wasn't Nick just saying he was against single match rallying on The Show Yeah but he claimed that he was okay with it if it brought permanent voters to the site (not that I think his CT rally is doing that either). Rallying for SC is clearly not doing that though --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
In a feat that is truly inexplicable, all eight of these games are managing to look bad somehow. --- http://i.imgur.com/gByqgPg.gif |
