CT is already beating Melee down past 55/45. This could get really damn ugly barring rallying.

Melee doesn't have any excuses either, it sticks out like crazy.

you people that are like 'menu every 30 seconds auuuuuughhh'

were you literally getting shot and hit every 30 seconds or something

maybe you just sucked at the game


"Oh look, I went from a jungle to a building in that screen transition. Better open my menu to change my camo. Oh look, now my stamina is low, better open my menu to eat food. What's this? I have no food? Guess i need to waste the next 5 minutes hunting snakes/frogs. Okay, now that that's take care of time to kill some guys. Need to change my camo again first. Okay, now that that's done i need to go into my backpack to change which equipment is showing up on my quick select menu because encumberance is a goddamn GREAT idea for an action game. Okay, firefight is done, but now I have to waste another minute in the medical screen to clean my wounds. Okay, screen transition, now here's a 5 minute long cutscene"

A 3 minute chunk of gameplay turns into a 30 minute ordeal. Noone can tell me they enjoyed all the Kojima circlejerky bulls*** that made its way into the game. Which is a shame, because MGS3 had probably the most interesting story and setting.


I play on Easy to avoid this. I can play most of the game without bothering with the menus lol. I only care about the story I don't care too much about difficulty.

The early board vote seemed to favor FFVII. I blame bracket voting for that.

As someone who enjoys the gameplay in most MGS games (MGS1 is rough to go back to, but MGS5 is probably my favourite game this year), it seems a shame that the only way to get around the bad game design is by playing on the easiest difficulty.

One less bracket to worry about (mine). I think CT beats FFVII with some breathing room. Could be an awesome final 10 days if Pokemon manages to beat Undertale.

And hell, even if Undertale wins, it might be fireworks in the finals if Ocarina gets beefed up to stop it.

So honest question here, can someone explain how FFX/Melee were board favourites over CT? Did CT not establish itself as the clear #3 game in past contests? Or were people taking Crono's fall as a sign of weakness for the game itself? This is honestly the most confounding board messup this year, only slightly ahead of SMG > Super Metroid.

So nice to see Chrono so strong. It's a punch to the gut of my bracket but CT is a much better game than Melee, and Melee is good!

I thought FFX > CT was absurd and couldn't believe it was the guru favorite. However, I thought Smash 4 had boosted interest in the Smash franchise and thought that would push it over CT. Turns out I was right about FFX but not so much about new games boosting up old franchises.

I honestly have no clue about FFX (you'd think Final Fantasy Fear would have died in like 2009), but it's easy to explain Melee. NintendoFear. Melee lost to Brawl in 2010 but would have cruised through that contest otherwise and would have probably beaten Brawl in the final.

Also, you really, really, REALLY couldn't call CT the #3 game on the site when it got its butt kicked by Mario 64 in a match that should have favored it. Doubly so when all the CT characters have looked worse and worse for like a decade. Melee was a sensible division winner. It's getting obliterated now, but three weeks ago, no one could have claimed that based on past results.

quick Leon give me KH2 = KH1


KH1 = KH2, OoT wins with 52.10%

KH2 > KH1 based on their GOTD ratio, CT wins with 50.37%

That number only goes up the further CT drives Melee down.
