Oh damn, I totally forgot that our very own half_silver28 won first prize ...but didn't enter the Guru, RIP. "I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people who do." You won the CBX Guru Contest, Advokaiser! Bully for you! |
Logience posted... Okay, this has me laughing after checking the article for Red vs Neptunia:That guy has spent almost a year not finishing a PCA. Like good hell. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
it's okay nobody wants to read what he has to say anyway |
Fun
fact: I had two really hard picks to do: Squall vs. Zelda and Tifa vs.
Luigi. I regretted picking both Squall and Tifa upon finishing my
bracket, but Tifa turned out to be a wondrous upset pick. Had I picked Zelda beating Squall (and eventually Fox/Aerith, which was my original plan) I would've had enough points to end up #1 overall. It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
We're coming up on the anniversary of Mewtwo is a fraud |
It wasn't Mewtwo's fault that everyone else overrated him. >_> Link isn't the only one who kicks ass. Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Contest! |
Team Rocket Elite posted... It wasn't Mewtwo's fault that everyone else overrated him. >_> Imagine if the contest was going to start now, PokeFear could have been the real deal |
Mewtwo would still be a fraud. |
This
also reminds me how for my bracket one of my explicit plans was to bank
heavily on Tifa. She always seemed to do better than expected and I
didn't want to be caught off guard again. I still didn't take her far
enough. <_< Link isn't the only one who kicks ass. Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Contest! |
Oh hey, we’re talking about Character contests again. Do you think DMC5 did well enough to give Dante a popularity refresh? It certainly did enough that everyone who doesn’t eternally bear grudges will overwrite DMC:DMC. >unironically playing video games |
I
don't think Dante did badly to being with. DMC5 probably won't hurt. I
think Dante having a good shot at SSBU DLC might help more. Link isn't the only one who kicks ass. Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Contest! |
Yeah, Dante did fine. He's never been in Ganondorf's league, so there's no shame in losing to him. I feel like DMC5 just kinda came and went though. We'll see how it does in GOTY. |
Leonhart4 posted... Yeah, Dante did fine. He's never been in Ganondorf's league, so there's no shame in losing to him. Pretty sure Astral Chain’s guaranteed to win GOTY on this site. >unironically playing video games |
Astral Chain’s not beating Three Houses or Pokémon. [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO Advokaiser NO PEACE] |
AxemRedRanger posted... Astral Chain’s not beating Three Houses or Pokémon. Hey, I wish FE16 had a chance of winning, too, but there’s only so much you can do when you’re up against a Platinum spectacle fighter. Sure, maybe it’ll take some of the casual vote, but all of that is already being hogged by Pokemon /ss/. >unironically playing video games |
Link’s Awakening might win GOTY. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
UltimaterializerX posted... Link’s Awakening might win GOTY. If Link Between Worlds didn’t register on anyone’s radar, then neither is this. >unironically playing video games |
Link Between Worlds nearly won GOTY here |
Leonhart4 posted... Link Between Worlds nearly won GOTY here It technically did win the “final” poll that went up after |
Leonhart4 posted... Link Between Worlds nearly won GOTY here Where are all these past GOTY statistics from? >unironically playing video games |
Logience posted... Where are all these past GOTY statistics from?https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll?search=best+of+20 We've also got this page to consolidate that but it's badly out of date: https://board8.fandom.com/wiki/Game_of_the_Year [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO Advokaiser NO PEACE] |
AxemRedRanger posted... We've also got this page to consolidate that but it's badly out of date: So how come nobody’s tried to fix that? >unironically playing video games |
because nobody really cares about the Wiki anymore |
That’s not true. I see the page hits. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
UltimaterializerX posted... That’s not true. I see the page hits. Viewing =/= caring. I would care, but I’m not nearly knowledgable enough about Gamefaqs history. >unironically playing video games |
Yeah,
I'll occasionally go to the Wiki to find some kind of info, but I
certainly don't care enough to create new pages or update old ones. |
UltimaterializerX posted... Link’s Awakening might win GOTY. Remakes tend to take a significant hit in strength compared to the original so it's hard to say just how strong Link's Awakening will be. Link isn't the only one who kicks ass. Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Contest! |
LeonhartFour posted... because nobody really cares about the Wiki anymore 😧 😢 It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
Oh
hey, another SMB1 playrate poll. We've had like 3 over the year with
different wording. Has the playrate changed much in those polls? It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
Yeah during offseason no one updates it LOL Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
YOSHI'S ISLAND IN THIS POLL. Suppoorrrtt! For
the best videogame commentary story on the Internet (sometimes
featuring GameFAQs poll of the days and contest discussion) visit https://www.koopatv.org |
Yoshi's Island is best platformer Mario. Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, Advokaiser, the 2018 Guru Contest winner. |
Yoshi's Island is definitely the best game in this poll. "I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people who do." You won the CBX Guru Contest, Advokaiser! Bully for you! |
Yoshi's Island is definitely the most overrated Mario game and that's saying something considering Mario 64 also exists |
SMW winning as it should be Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Challenge! |
Is it the difficulty or the powerups that makes Mario 3 more favored? >unironically playing video games |
Poor Yoshi's Island. Its performance is closely mirroring its 2009 match against Mario 64.... Congrats to Advokaiser on pwning me in CBX! |
Voted for SMB 3 myself. I have played SMB 1,2,3 and SW myself and as a non fan I consider that one the best. So why we exist? What happens when we stop existing? |
LeonhartFour posted... Yoshi's Island is definitely the most overrated Mario game At least we can agree that Mario 64 is vastly overrated (for a Mario game). Yoshi's island is getting absolutely demolished here... sad times |
Logience posted... Is it the difficulty or the powerups that makes Mario 3 more favored? The better platforming and level design LadyVyxx posted... LeonhartFour posted...Yoshi's Island is definitely the most overrated Mario game It's actually doing better than last time! As are the Mario Land games, for whatever the reason. |
LeonhartFour posted... Yoshi's Island is definitely the most overrated Mario game good opinion hours came early today You felt your sins weighing on your neck. |
I
think Yoshi's Island is really great! It's full of creativity - there
are some really memorable sections like getting chased by a chain chomp
and the boss fight on a tiny planet. The game becomes way worse when you
try to 100% it, though. |
Yoshi's Island is great. Probably the second best game in the poll! Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Challenge! |
LadyVyxx posted... At least we can agree that Mario 64 is vastly overrated (for a Mario game). Try again. "I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people who do." You won the CBX Guru Contest, Advokaiser! Bully for you! |
Yeah, just drop the parenthetical statement. |

The game becomes way worse when you try to 100% it, though. I love 100%ing the game, except for 6-5's last stretch. Agent Triple Zero at your service!

AxemRedRanger posted... https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll?search=best+of+20 Thanks for mentioning that page. I'll have to work on getting that updated to include the last several years of results. Advokaiser posted... Oh hey, another SMB1 playrate poll. We've had like 3 over the year with different wording. Has the playrate changed much in those polls? Not much at all. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Advokaiser, Guru Champ! |
The fact that the original NSMB is winning this poll goes to show that most of this site hasn't played these games. |
LeonhartFour posted... The fact that the original NSMB is winning this poll goes to show that most of this site hasn't played these games. Yeah, the original NSMB is not good, but it evidently has a major playrate advantage over the rest of these games. "I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people who do." You won the CBX Guru Contest, Advokaiser! Bully for you! |
