Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1234
yeah but mario rpg is a game that's notorious for having the worst night vote in the biz. you guys know this! --- xyzzy |
I
know it's a bit early to look at Europe, but they seem to be favouring
Chrono Cross, it's winning in the UK (though that place may only have 20
votes) --- BGE3: Today's Matches SMRPG > Chrono Cross, RE4 > MGS2 Points 147/176 |
If
Mario RPG wins against RE4 I'll be very proud of myself of having it
since Day 1 and loving the results since it's one of my all my favorite
games and I like it more than RE4 --- Anime List: http://myanimelist.net/profile/superange VG List: http://myvideogamelist.com/profile/superange128 Visual Novels: https://vndb.org/u6633/votes (edited 12/4/2015 9:39:09 PM)report |
FFVI with 52% --- Please excuse my grammar for I am using my phone. |
KamikazePotato posted... ZFS posted...what ev RE4 is currently struggling with MGS2 It's hardly the game that RE4 should be struggling with if RE4 is where people want to think it is. --- satoru iwata |
Geolocation is not a predictor of trends. All it tells you is what the stats are right now. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
LeonhartFour posted... so wait FF6, no more than 54% --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy -trancer1 lol xstats |
I'm just saying at least Europe got Mario RPG at some point! (It probably got CC, too) --- satoru iwata (edited 12/4/2015 9:40:24 PM)report |
I
think MM = WW is a fair assumption to make right now. FF6 with 52-53%
feels reasonable. I stand by my statement that I would never pick Super
Metroid over FF6. --- xyzzy |
ZFS posted... KamikazePotato posted...ZFS posted...what ev RE4 is currently struggling with MGS2 Actually, Resident Evil 4 43.09% Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty 41.74% It's fine. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
so does this mean FFVI has any chance against FFVII or not or is Zelda just weird like that --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Oh man if I keep seeing GOTD stats like they mean much next to some of these other, much stronger games! --- satoru iwata |
ZFS posted... KamikazePotato posted...ZFS posted...what ev RE4 is currently struggling with MGS2 RE4 just needs to get past SMRPG, and I take MGS2 comfortably over Chrono Cross. I still think RE4 wins next round, but it will probably be close either way --- Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy -trancer1 lol xstats |
It's hardly the game that RE4 should be struggling with if RE4 is where people want to think it is. Nah, MGS2 isn't that weak, do people think round 4 SotC would 60/40 round 2 SotC? --- BGE3: Today's Matches SMRPG > Chrono Cross, RE4 > MGS2 Points 147/176 |
ZFS posted... Oh man if I keep seeing GOTD stats like they mean much next to some of these other, much stronger games! Spoilers RE4 is projected to get 62% on Chrono Cross through those stats SMRPG has that. Now. During the Power Hour. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. (edited 12/4/2015 9:42:06 PM)report |
LeonhartFour posted... so does this mean FFVI has any chance against FFVII or not Well FFVI did crush TTYD, which was behind...Wind Waker/Majora's Mask! --- http://i.imgur.com/M1heX2g.jpg RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
If FF6 has a chance against FF7, for real, I'm not sure how to even feel about that. I don't think FF7/WW is particularly close. --- satoru iwata |
well,
I've always felt like people wrote FF6 off way too early. FF7's r3
performance wasn't really any better. let's see what ME2 does tomorrow. --- xyzzy |
I'll
probably go over the stats again before the match but currently I have
FF7 beating FF3 with 53%. It's pretty dangerous for a game like FF7 to
allow another game into striking distance like this so it could end up
losing. --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
I
guess I give FF7 some leeway for having to go up against something like
Smash Bros., even if it is for Wii U/3DS. WW being that high seem off.
Or maybe FF7 is just that low. --- satoru iwata |
I have FFVII slightly ahead of FFVI, but it is a winnable match. --- BGE3: Today's Matches SMRPG > Chrono Cross, RE4 > MGS2 Points 147/176 |
you give FF7 credit for facing Smash 4 but don't give FF6 credit for going up against Zelda? --- xyzzy |
FF7 would not fail to break 54% on Wind Waker. I would expect high 50s and possibly over 60% for 7 against 6. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
charmander6000 posted... I know it's a bit early to look at Europe, but they seem to be favouring Chrono Cross, it's winning in the UK (though that place may only have 20 votes) Even if Europe is pretty split on this match, Chrono Cross should win the night vote only because I expect Asia to favor Chrono Cross over Super Mario RPG. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as raytan7585, Guru Champ! |
The
idea of a bunch of games being within striking range of FFVII seems odd
to me. We originally thought it was just a handful that had a shot, but
FFVI beating it would mean a lot of games could. I guess we'll see! --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
So is the MGS1/3 the favorite over RE4? Assuming one of them makes it out of their division ofcourse. --- Formerly known as Dilated Chemist |
SwiftyDC posted... So is the MGS1/3 the favorite over RE4? Assuming one of them makes it out of their division ofcourse. If it's MGS1, yeah. If it's MGS3, who the heck knows. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Zelda has let me down a lot this contest. FF6 doesn't seem more impressive to me having beat WW like it did. --- satoru iwata (edited 12/4/2015 9:49:07 PM)report |
I would consider MGS the favorite over both RE4 and ME2 MGS3 what's that --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
I
just think we've come down a lot on FF7 and Ocarina. there was a time
when the only game that could get 40% on those games was each other.
now? Ocarina lets FF9 get 35% and FF7 lets Smash 4 get 35%. I think the
gap between our big two and the rest has shrunk by quite a bit. --- xyzzy |
Anyway,
this match implies that the MGS series probably hasn't dropped as much
as we thought. MGS4 was also validated a bit when KH2 did well against
Melee. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
If
MGS1 coasts out of the division (like it should), then it'll be the
easy favorite over RE4. If it barely survives or MGS3/SOTC/ME2 wins it
and/or SMRPG wins this division, then who knows. --- http://i.imgur.com/M1heX2g.jpg RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
I
know people don't agree, but I still think we've seen FFVII (and since
2010, Link/OOT) put up lots of bad performances in the early rounds
against much weaker games. Stuff like Link/Alucard and Cloud/Captain
Falcon. In 2009 FFVII had garbage showings the first 2 rounds, then
crushed CT and Mario 64 in Round 3. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
EarthBound is joining the elites --- satoru iwata |

yep, RE4 is getting MGS3'd here... by MGS2. this quarter of the bracket just continues to one-down each other. --- xyzzy |
CUT!! First MGS2 cut of the match! Keep it going!! --- Yay - Raytan is the guru champion of awesomeness. |

Ocarina lets FF9 get 35% and FF7 lets Smash 4 get 35%. I think the gap between our big two and the rest has shrunk by quite a bit. Yeah, it's likely they've just come back to the rest of the field. That's been the case in characters, too. Cloud is certainly within striking range of several characters now 1-on-1, and even Link can't destroy non-Nintendo characters the way he used to anymore. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
transience posted... yep, RE4 is getting MGS3'd here... by MGS2. this quarter of the bracket just continues to one-down each other. Nobody wants to face OoT powering up to face Undertale, obviously. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
and Vivi apparently beats Mario so maybe that Luigi > Mario poll has some truth to it which in turn means FF6 is gonna do it --- satoru iwata (edited 12/4/2015 9:52:51 PM)report |
I'd
say that FF6/FF7 is probably like 54-46 in favour of FF7, but I
wouldn't want to bet on an FF6/FF7 match. that just seems like a recipe
for a crazy result. maybe FF7 SFFs the hell out of it or maybe FF6 fans
rise up. or maybe the whole internet rallies to kill FF7. who knows? --- xyzzy |
MGS > MGS2 = MGS3 isn't as big a stretch as you'd think |
MGS2 is weaker than MGS3, but not by much. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
In honor of the MGS franchise, KP has made this topic: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/72938164 --- Formerly known as Dilated Chemist |
If
FF6 is naturally in that range, I do think the upset will probably
happen. That's like the Final Fantasy argument right there and if you
have a chance, you gotta go FF6. That'd be a pretty great upset. --- satoru iwata |
I'll do more FUN WITH MGS NUMBERS in a bit, comparing MGS2 to the other games and seeing what it gives us. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
holy mario rpg refusing to go quietly into the night --- xyzzy |
