Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1326
GameFAQs Contests
Wait a minute... unless I've missed something, the only series to produce multiple GotY winners on GameFAQs are now Final Fantasy The Legend of Zelda Super Smash Bros. RESIDENT EVIL Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
gotta win the final vote...! |
I'm
willing to call it a wrap at this point. It's been far ahead in all the
polls and, despite coming from a smaller series, has the ingredients to
be considered a GameFAQs darling. The few people who vote without
playing a single poll option will be swayed toward RE2 because it got
such rave reviews (from media AND fans) upon release. IMO, its biggest
detriment is the fact that it's already 12 months old - had it released
three months ago, I think it'd be doing even better. Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
RE2 winning GOTY is something I never thought I'd see happen. It's as glorious as I'd have hoped. If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person? #theresafreakingghostafterus |
I
am fairly confident Sekiro would have beaten KHIII. I suspect that game
would have tanked relative to March and Sekiro looks like it might have
beaten it even if it stayed the same. I hope Outer Wilds bring in all these polls convinces some people to try it out. That game is incredible. I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser |
I
don't think the opinion on KH3 has significantly changed since March.
If anything it might be more positive since people seemed to like the
stuff in the DLC trailer which addresses some of the issues people had
with the game. Link isn't the only one who kicks ass. Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Contest! |
Oh
wow DQ11 collapsed overnight and Sekiro surged into 3rd. That will give
Three Houses as fair of a shot as it can get, so no excuses now. |

Being able to beat RE2 on a three way poll only to lose the 1v1? RE2 will end up number 1 regardless even if it’s LFFd. |
Fair shot as in it won't get LFF'd by the third option like it would have with DQ11 or Link's Awakening I'm not saying it'll win but it at least won't get held down (edited 1/10/2020 6:47:29 AM)report |
FFDragon posted... RE2 winning GOTY is something I never thought I'd see happen. it was going to Win GOTY as soon as it beat Kh3 in the “best games of year so far” back in March. Kh3 was only going to get weaker by that point and with RE3 announcement RE2 stayed the same popularity. |
LeonhartFour posted... Fair shot as in it won't get LFF'd by the third option like it would have with DQ11 or Link's Awakening no I think FE could even win that three way. But if that happens there will be a final GOTY poll with just RE2 and FE. So it’s kind of pointless. |
why isn’t Shadowbringers in this poll !!!! |
where is Star Wars VR it's like there's no poll integrity anymore |
SBAllen should just throw in KH3 in the final poll with RE2 and Three Houses imhotbqh |
57 new posts? Wow, it's almost like it's contest season already. Anyway, PlayStation Latin America published their top 20 games of the decade, as decided by... its users, I think (I didn't know the process, honestly). Here's the list: It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
RE2's performance today isn't too far off from what FFXV did to Pokemon Sun/Moon in the 2016 GotY poll: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/6574- RE2 currently has 58.47% on Fire Emblem, while FFXV got 57.21% on Pokemon Sun/Moon in the overall GotY poll. The games that could have LFFed Pokemon Sun/Moon back then were only sitting around 4% (Pokemon GO and TP HD), yet removing those allowed the result to flip in the 3-way poll. Fire Emblem has to deal with the fact that the 2 games most likely responsible for the LFF (Dragon Quest and Link's Awakening) are both over 10%, so it could see more of an improvement than expected in the 1v1 poll.

LeonhartFour posted... SBAllen should just throw in KH3 in the final poll with RE2 and Three Houses imhotbqhKH3 would probably be fighting for 2nd in this poll thanks to LFF, so I'm glad its staying away! With that said... Team Rocket Elite posted... I don't think the opinion on KH3 has significantly changed since March. If anything it might be more positive since people seemed to like the stuff in the DLC trailer which addresses some of the issues people had with the game.I don't think this is true. The public perception of KH3 has been on a downward trend since it released and I doubt DLC released many months after the fact is going to make up for that. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Nah,
there's definitely a lot of anticipation for the Remind DLC. I don't
know that it would matter here, but it's still bad form for Allen to
omit it entirely from GOTY. |
Erasing the Kingdom Hearts series from the collective conscience is an admirable move and I support Allen in this undertaking. If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person? #theresafreakingghostafterus |

It's nomination time! Might I suggest Rollers of the Realm, the best pinball RPG known to humanity? Advokaiser picked Cloud in Guru and rained on my bracket. At least I finished 20th overall! |
time to nominate a bunch of stuff that will probably get in anyway and also Dual Destinies |
So what’s our guru nom? [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO Advokaiser NO PEACE] |
Remember everyone we can get Resident Evil 6 in if we all believe |
I
noticed both RE2 and Link's Awakening show up on the suggestion list on
the nomination form, so I assume they're both eligible. I already tossed in a nomination for KH3, because it's a crime that it missed out on the GotY polls, so GotD is the only way to see its strength in any kind of poll. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Advokaiser, Guru Champ! |
Literally
everything in the database within 2010-2019 shows up, even stuff that
almost certainly won't be eligible, like Ace Attorney Trilogy. |
Go my DQ XI Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Challenge! |
I do notice that Allen made a special exception for Minecraft despite technically being released in 2009. (edited 1/10/2020 4:33:24 PM)report |
The
Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds is another game worth
nominating, only because it never got into BGE 2015 to validate its
strength from the 2013 GotY polls where it won GotY. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Advokaiser, Guru Champ! |
Actually, it does look like some things have been filtered out. OoT and MM 3DS are both absent from the database. So maybe as long as they're in the database, they're eligible...? If that's the case, Ace Attorney Trilogy, baby! |
LeonhartFour posted... So maybe as long as they're in the database, they're eligible...? Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD Remaster is on the drop-down list and that's almost certainly not eligible, as that is pretty much a plain remaster. Numerous other remasters are also on the drop-down list besides that one. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Advokaiser, Guru Champ! |
Resident Evil 2 winning game of the year here and not being eligible for game of the decade would be peak GameFAQs If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person? #theresafreakingghostafterus |
It's guaranteed to make it. It's a bigger, more original remake than the game literally known as REMake. Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
I know that. But the fact people even bring it up makes me nervous. Though I feel the people bringing it up have probably never played 98 RE2 or 19 RE2, so... If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person? #theresafreakingghostafterus (edited 1/10/2020 4:53:32 PM)report |
ulti dressing up as a girl posting pics of him giving BJ's again. |

Ultis sister has hacked his account again. |
What the absolute f*** that's disgusting |
Apparently
Ulti's account is suspended now, but not for the picture he posted in
this topic. I'm guessing the suspension was for a different post in
another topic. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as Advokaiser, Guru Champ! |

Yuri_LowelI posted... It is eligible. I just nominated it.That doesn't mean it's eligible, that only means it's in the nomination database. Allen has been evasive with these things before, most notably with Sonic 3 & Knuckles in 2015 (though that was a slightly different situation) and Spider-Man in 2018. Admittedly, I'm inclined to think it's actually eligible, but the only way to know for sure is direct confirmation from Allen. "I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people who do." You won the CBX Guru Contest, Advokaiser! Bully for you! (edited 1/10/2020 8:26:10 PM)report |

Yuri_LowelI posted... why are games like OOT 3d and Majorca’s mask 3d not in the database?AFAIK, those are the only two remakes of pre-2010s games not in the database, so I really don't think it means much.
