GameFAQs Contests
pjbasis posted... Rockstar still climbing though! They might be able to squeeze out a P4 port! Just imagine, one of the best-selling games of all time beating a port exclusive to the Vita...! O P E R A T I O N O U S T : Nominate SHEIK! https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/ssb/images/0/0d/Sheik-Victory3-SSB4.png |
So what are we ranking the losing games' strength here? I'd go FTL > XCOM 2 > Ghost > Baba Granted, I'd still go GTAV > P4G > RDR >> Cuphead. XCOM 2 is one of the only games in the bracket I haven't heard a thing of before. It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
Jeez I thought Cuphead/XCOM2 would be closer than this lol. Current 14th place overall in the GameFAQs Game of the Decade contest! NP: GTAV/Cuphead/P4G/RDR |

Poor Ghost Trick More people should play it! Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Challenge! |
There is no way to rank these four losers. They’re all bottom of the barrel. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
If
you want to argue there were never going to be 128 games worthy of a
contest poll on this site from the last decade, today's matches are
exhibit A. Four complete drubbings, and I wouldn't be sure any of the
winners are even that good! We are living our lives Abound with so much information (edited 4/1/2020 7:08:51 PM)report |
they should have made GTAV only about the cars and put more effort into making a good cut scene when player was taking someone's car Prejudice is bad addiction . Open-mindedness is good remedy. |
I think if you took the bottom half out seed wise you get an amazing contest tbh. Probably only sacrifice 3-4 winners Sir Chris Doom The Kanto Saga - Animated Series - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hH4wNFCrLM |
The
amazing contest is coming we just need to cut the chaff. The second
round of this very eightpack was probably the single most debated set of
matches in the contest If
you're only on this board to whine about "SJWs", please redirect
whatever you type on to the nearest trash can. And hop in after it. |
this is when we need 4 matches per day to get through all this fodder |
Hang on a second. Ghost Trick made it to the bracket for the best game of the decade.....but not Golden Sun: Dark Dawn?! This is clearly rigged. Hey, I gots a YouTube if ya curious. https://www.youtube.com/user/crazyseandx |

Probably only sacrifice 3-4 winners Pretty much, no one notable (strength-wise) is below an 8 seed. I think the strongest 9-16 seed is Mario Kart 8. Game of the Decade 2 - Current Score: 19/24 Today's Picks: GTAV, Cuphead, P4G, RDR |
This 4 pack of winners is gonna be fireworks. dilateDChemist |
LeonhartFour posted... Trend charts: Wow, 13% difference? That sure is notable. It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
Do we know how long we'll be doing 4 matches a day? |
This part of this division is very crappy, IMO. |
We are still in stomp city I see. And now way to juste game strength since they are all crushing various fodders that are hard to compare. (edited 4/1/2020 11:53:08 PM)report |
People are really underestimating Ghost Trick’s playrate here. First, Baba is You is going to be the least played, it is a recent new indie IP from an unknown team. That takes time. Second, Ghost Trick has slightly more registered owners on GameFAQs than FTL - the two are likely at a similar playrate. It also has a fantastic rating at 4.4. Ghost Trick will be weak, but not bottom of the barrel by any means. It has that dedicated AA fanbase after all. I think it beats FTL, and it definitely beats Baba is You. Also XCOM 2 is easily the strongest here. We saw FTL vs. Enemy Unknown in a poll and it got tripled. How much stronger is the question. However while GTA may still edge it, the Cupset does look quite good. I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser (edited 4/2/2020 1:24:56 AM)report |
Woke up checked the results. Fine. So why we exist? What happens when we stop existing? |
Well my GTA to the final safety pick isn't happening now. Just need to hope P4 can make the semi. |
Alright,
feeling slightly better about my GTA picks after waking up and seeing
these numbers. It'll beat Cuphead, but who knows after that. I was the final Undisputed Champion in UCA history, however Advokaiser was the Guru Champion! |
I can't even see it beating Cuphead and if it gets P4 in the semi it's got no chance. |
I can't see it losing to Cuphead at all. Though I can definitely see it look ugly at first given the early vote today. Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to Advokaiser, the winner of the Character Battle X guru contest. |
Boring matches mean I get to post the next set of match pics early! https://gamefaqs1.cbsistatic.com/images/contest/gotd-back/43584.png https://gamefaqs1.cbsistatic.com/images/contest/gotd-back/458835.png https://gamefaqs1.cbsistatic.com/images/contest/gotd-back/355766.png https://gamefaqs1.cbsistatic.com/images/contest/gotd-back/451575.png https://gamefaqs1.cbsistatic.com/images/contest/gotd-back/106042.png https://gamefaqs1.cbsistatic.com/images/contest/gotd-back/285250.png https://gamefaqs1.cbsistatic.com/images/contest/gotd-back/461431.png https://gamefaqs1.cbsistatic.com/images/contest/gotd-back/124448.png "I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people who do." You won the CBX Guru Contest, Advokaiser! Bully for you! |
augh that Death Stranding pic |
Allen hates Kojima. Kampfmaschine Advokaiser punched my lights out in the 2018 Guru. My bracket was soft... just like my heart! |
Lightning Strikes posted... Ghost Trick will be weak, but not bottom of the barrel by any means. It has that dedicated AA fanbase after all. That dedicated AA fanbase that didn't really play it. Not to mention the only AA game here that even has decent strength is the first one. T&T has been tripled by SOTN and FFIX, and Ghost Trick will be significantly weaker than even that. "Registered owners" is a meaningless statistic because it's such a small sample size and a lot of us have completely ignored it within a year of it being rolled out. |
I
think direct extrapolation from 2015 has Ghost Trick getting 18% on
Shadow of the Colossus. Then again considering what an almighty
whacking SOTC gave TF2 that's actually plausible. "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |
I
mean I could see myself plying it but between AA, Danganronpa, Zero
Escape and it, there are only so many AA-like games I can play before I
want a break from them. Or if it's AAI, 10% of the game before I need that break. |
Yeah plugging Ghost Trick into the 2015 stats has Team Fortress 2 barely doubling it, which does seem reasonable. "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |
I
don’t think the site stats are great as I’ve said before, but FTL and
Ghost Trick came out fairly close together and neither would encourage
more people to check in that way like say an RPG. I am nog confident and
it’s not great. But if there is an audience for Ghost Trick it’s
probably this site. The only thing I’m confident on is XCOM 2>the
rest. I think RDR will be a bit stronger. It got a sequel and came back in relevance before that. I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser |
Assuming
Persona 4 Golden has comparable strength to Persona 4, FTL gets 15% on
Twilight Princess. Also, plugging Baba Is You into the 2015 x-stats has
it getting 18% on Mario RPG and 20% on Oblivion, which doesn't seem TOO
unreasonable. Who knows though? I just wrote off Persona 4 Golden because of it being a port and figured GTA couldn't possibly choke against its own parent company, right? Plus this is V, not San Andreas, and honestly San Andreas's past contest results don't look that bad if you take into account every game it has lost to being more in this site's wheelhouse. "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |
*wakes up* Oh hey, the percentages haven't changed a bit since yesterday. And they're nearly identical too! Let's see how closely together the overall percentages end up being at the end of the day. It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. |
> Getting just Edelgard's thighs in the match pic someone has been reading up on what the newest trend in anime is If
you're only on this board to whine about "SJWs", please redirect
whatever you type on to the nearest trash can. And hop in after it. |
Persona 4 Golden has 4.60/5 Red Dead Redemption has 4.39/5 Xenoblade Chronicles has 4.58/5 I think Red Dead has no chance in this division. |
I think FTL is the strongest loser in this bunch, which makes P4G look good. Come watch me on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/gameryogi |
That Three Houses match pic is so hilarious. .-#Elements of Water#-. |
How can you not vote for South Park with that pic? Low-key one of the best cover arts of that generation. The music was thud-like. The music was... thud-like. |
P4G is a port. That will be held against it. It seems to only be here to hive the Vita a rep. I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser |
Wow Cuphead really fell off. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
I'd probably take Ghost Trick over FTL but who knows? The winner of P4/RDR is probably not breaking 55%. "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |
Leonhart4 posted... As every indie winner has Which you undoubtedly love to see. I was the final Undisputed Champion in UCA history, however Advokaiser was the Guru Champion! |
Bastion didn’t did it? I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser |
Lightning Strikes posted... Bastion didn’t did it? Well, Bastion was the one winner that didn't jump way out in front to start the match. |
Lightning Strikes posted... P4G is a port. That will be held against it. It seems to only be here to hive the Vita a rep. Bold of you to say while P4G has over 75% in a match. Advokaiser picked Cloud in Guru and rained on my bracket. At least I finished 20th overall! |
They'll hold it against it later, obviously |
