Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1344
GameFAQs Contests
But RE2 and Pokémon used their full ass! I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser |
RE2
is barely any different from making a new game from scratch from a
development standpoint. outside of the story nothing from the original
was used. |
With
America waking up, RDR still has a decent shot at this match. It rose
0.5% against Ghost Trick from this point in the match, so this could go
down to the wire. congrats to BKSheikah the BYIG guru |
I
don't think that's quite true, they did use a lot of the structure and
modes from the original, but yeah it is a new game based on the
original. Like I said RE2 is basically the boundary between what is a
remake and what is a reimagining. The boundary between a remaster and a
remake would be something like OoT3D, though even that might just be a
remake. Basically: Port - the same game, possibly running differently or at a different resolution but that's it (eg The Witcher 3 on Switch). Remaster - the same game with new features and/or significant upgrades (eg Mario Kart 8 Deluxe) Remake - the same game built from the ground up (eg Pokemon Heart Gold/Soul Silver) Reimagining - an entirely new game based on the old game (eg Metroid: Samus Returns) I just decided to change this sig.

Okay,
so if we raise RE4's number on Mario RPG by 3% it gets to 47%, which
would give it 54% on GTAV. We'll arbitrarily assume SMRPG overperformed
by even more against MGS3 to the tune of RE4 being worth 48% on MGS3.
This gives RE4 ~53% on SOTC, which comes out to 62% on RDR. So GTAV/RDR
is a 58/42 match in 2015 by this logic. This means GTAV has plenty of room to drop and still eke past P4 next round. I feel a LITTLE more comfortable now. "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |
Golden will beat Grand Theft Auto in a Game of the Decade contest Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality |
If
anything I would say GTAV is stronger now than in 2015, or at the very
least the same. It has no reason to drop like RDR does. "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and hellboy" - trancer1 lol xstats |
charmander6000 posted... I mean, does anyone think Pokemon HG/SS will be as strong as Pokemon GSC?HG/SS is considered by many as the pinnacle of the series. Then again franchise is not as strong because of SW/SH and the Dexit debacle (edited 4/15/2020 7:06:44 AM)report |

Like I said RE2 is basically the boundary between what is a remake and what is a reimagining. The boundary between a remaster and a remake would be something like OoT3D, though even that might just be a remake.I haven't played i, but didn't the RE2 remake have some fundamental changes to the gameplay/story? At the very least it didn't have tank controls right? Versus Pokemon which is literally the exact same gameplay with a new graphic engine bolted on top of it. Side topic, but would FF7R be a reimagining? It follows pretty close to the original game in terms of story, up to a certain point. "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and hellboy" - trancer1 lol xstats |
I
would actually expect RDR to get a bit stronger, despite Rockstar's
refusal to port it to anything. It got a sequel which hadn't even been
announced in 2015, and when it came to Xbox backwards compatibility it
was a big deal. That game had a bit of a revival. I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser |
squexa posted... With America waking up, RDR still has a decent shot at this match. It rose 0.5% against Ghost Trick from this point in the match, so this could go down to the wire. Yeah, RDR has been gaining in the United States, however, Canada flipped to P4G. Game of the Decade 2 - Current Score: 78/88 Today's Picks: GTAV, P4G, XBC, FE3H |
I
would just assume that most of the RDR fans moved on to RDR2, similar
to how Smash games get weaker when a new Smash comes out. Some sort of
recency bias "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and hellboy" - trancer1 lol xstats |
Wake-up, do morning routine, check GameFAQs... I guess I should be glad P4 is still in the lead? Barely? Even if it stumbles its way to Round 3 it's kinda looking DOA GTAV clearing 60 against Cuphead makes it look... well not good but at least not as comically bad as initially thought. Let's not forget people were calling for a Cupset after R1... it's kinda looking situated to beat whatever crawls out of RDR v P4 And wow Fire Emblem. WOOOOOW. I really went to bat hard for 3H > Xenoblade. It really doesn't make sense to me, 3H made such a splash and has had a lot of staying power... 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. |
Looks like there's a rally attempt going on at the RDR subreddit. https://old.reddit.com/r/reddeadredemption/comments/g1s5ho/red_dead_redemption_is_featured_in_todays/ PaulG235 | "But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant."

calimelee posted... HG/SS is considered by many as the pinnacle of the series. Then again franchise is not as strong because of SW/SH and the Dexit debacle Yeah, HG/SS is considered by Pokemon fans to be the pinnacle of the series, but you gotta remember that Pokemon fandom is a very different demographic than GameFAQs voters. For example, RBY would do poorly in any Pokemon fandom poll, although it's by far the strongest Pokemon game here. congrats to BKSheikah the BYIG guru |

RDR has actually brought this under 200. I think we have a match now. |
To paraphrase Elfo from "Disenchantment" - I like Persona's chances here, but I don't love them. The music was thud-like. The music was... thud-like. |
Save my bracket, rallies! "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |

Based on RDR vs Ghost Trick, P4G is projected to win with 50.05%. congrats to BKSheikah the BYIG guru |
When we do GOTD 2020s in 2030, you just know persona 5 royal will also be included and it will have a high seeding too |
UltimaterializerX posted... I already have one on PERSoNA.That's not remotely as active as the P5 sub I would just use some weasel words to not get the thread deleted like, like hey, BOTH P4 and P5 are in this contest, P4's match is today and P5 is Friday or whenever! Now it's P5 related. s*** if RDR's rally gets going I will personally go to P5's sub and try to get it started If

RDR has the time to make this interesting. I still think Persona wins, but it shouldn't feel safe. Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to Advokaiser, the winner of the Character Battle X guru contest. |
If Smash ultimate only had 4 Fire Emblem reps instead of 8, Three Houses would be close to 70% "Sit down. Shut up. Wait." - Kimahri Ronso |
monsefuz posted... If Smash ultimate only had 4 Fire Emblem reps instead of 8, Three Houses would be close to 70% Byleth had the worst spot ever for the reveal. The biggest anti-Smash joke is 'SO MANY FIRE EMBLEM CHARACTERS', and then the final character of a DLC set of fantastic third party characters, one that most people had already paid for. Could it be Dante? Doomguy? Master Chief? Hopefully not Minecraft Steve, at least... ...And it was the biggest, worst joke of a character possible. Not a stinky alien. :( Nintendo Switch Code: SW-5719-6555-8388 |
Fire
Emblem was on deaths door, got a massive lifeline and then gets nothing
but hate after it got popular. Without the current model the series
would be deader than F Zero. (edited 4/15/2020 8:31:35 AM)report |
Are we just going to ignore how badly Xenoblade is manhandling overwatch. Switch FC: SW-6458-1694-2499 IGN:Vivek Collection: http://goo.gl/NmVTCn |
raptor36000 posted... Are we just going to ignore how badly Xenoblade is manhandling overwatch. It's pretty boring to talk about that when a barnburner is happening elsewhere! Advokaiser picked Cloud in Guru and rained on my bracket. At least I finished 20th overall! |
Overwatch
could just be reeeeally weak, we have no real way to measure it outside
of Death Stranding (which itself has no way to be gauged) but right now its impossible to deny Xenoblade should be the favorite to win the division |
I mean, we talked about that a lot last topic. Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to Advokaiser, the winner of the Character Battle X guru contest. |
shane15 posted... Fire Emblem was on deaths door, got a massive lifeline and then gets nothing but hate after it got popular. Without the current model the series would be deader than F Zero. I mean, it's only receiving hate from people that don't play the series (and never will) and the small minority of people that dislike the series going too casual. A Three House representative was always going to be in Smash Ultimate. The series has one of the largest cast of characters outside of Pokemon Game of the Decade 2 - Current Score: 78/88 Today's Picks: GTAV, P4G, XBC, FE3H |
While
stronger than Dota 2/Fortnite, I didn't think Overwatch would be worth
too much on GameFAQs. Still a great performance by Xenoblade in its bid
to win the division. Game of the Decade 2 - Current Score: 78/88 Today's Picks: GTAV, P4G, XBC, FE3H |
Sharinnegan posted... Overwatch could just be reeeeally weak, we have no real way to measure it outside of Death Stranding (which itself has no way to be gauged) Agreed. Only way it loses is if FE manages to out-Nintendo it on the company hierarchy. I never bought the XC = DKC2 > FE3H argument (especially considering how DKC2 got ravaged by SotN in '15), but it appears that XCX, XC2, and XC1 Definitive have boosted Xenoblade. ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ (edited 4/15/2020 8:46:19 AM)report |

Rallies are fine if they are for the game/character you like! So why we exist? What happens when we stop existing? |
charmander6000 posted... I mean, it's only receiving hate from people that don't play the series (and never will) and the small minority of people that dislike the series going too casual. Yeah, I'm not sure I buy the idea that FE hate is playing a big role. Awakening lost to Bloodborne in my mind because Console > Handheld and because Bloodborne definitely gained strength since '15. Three Houses so far has struggled against an underseeded South Park game and a surprising Round 1 stud that pulled a big upset and just had a sequel released last month. ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |
Really proud of Persona 4 golden right now only on This site would it beat a game like red dead. dont let me down Gfaqs. |
*reads topic* Do I need to make a Ted Talk on how GTAV was really good in 2015 It's Reyn Time. |

KamikazePotato posted... *reads topic* I've been saying it since the bracket came out! Nobody wants to relinquish the ability to laugh at GTA for being a choker! |
I
was joking when i said pre contest what if FE gets antivotes for Byleth
being in Smash?. But if people genuinely are voting against it because
of that then wow. |
GTAV is honestly the game most deserving of being Game of the Decade. Not a stinky alien. :( Nintendo Switch Code: SW-5719-6555-8388 |
WarThaNemesis2 posted... I mean, if you thought FE3H beats DKC2, that's probably on you. I would take FE3H > DKC2 in a heartbeat. I'm convinced FE3H > FEA because Console > Handheld. DKC2 beat FEA 52-48, which is a narrow gap to make up, especially for a game like FE3H that put 46% on RE2 back in January. Would you trust DKC2 to score higher than 46% on RE2? ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |
