Wait, no one went 70%+ here? Kinda surprised. (Lawl Lopen) --- "Stay with me until the end. Please." "Not until the end. Always." |
Poke Floats is indeed one of my favorite stages as well! Big Blue is p cool. Icicle Mountain stinks. I had to replay SSE recently (augh can't transfer saves), it was as bad as I remembered it >_> --- GranTurisMo - God's Tiniest Man - Great Thorn Monkeys!

Why so low predictions from the crew?Didn't expected that. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
From: Ngamer64 | #159 Considering Brawl has only gone UP since I posted that, I don't see what's laughable about it! --- http://i43.tinypic.com/dgwh0.gif http://www.majhost.com/gallery/atukam/OHWD/snownd.gif |
Plus, its outdoing his prediction % by a good 6% now! --- "You brought your *****, to the waffle hut?" |
Perhaps it was a nervous lawl? --- Support Morrigan Aensland (Darkstalkers) for Character Battle IX! http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/9302/banner5morrigan2.jpg |
Pokefear up in here anyone feel differently about the GSC match? I don't think you should but you never know. --- xyzzy |
Zelda gonna 60/40 GSC --- This is the kind of **** that allowed the Bhopal incident to happen. 5,000 dead Indians. Want that on your damn conscience, Square apologists? |
I
don't feel differently about it because of this match, at least. MM/CC
made me feel like it's got a chance to win, at least. I didn't really
feel that way before. --- "Stay with me until the end. Please." "Not until the end. Always." |
Saying that GSC is gonna flop because DPP sucks is like saying SM64 would flop because NSMBWii sucks. --- DFF |
Well true but I thought that G/S/C would reach the final 4 easily.But now...maybe people really hate Pokemon here? --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
Southeast Division: Round 3 - Match 103 – (1) Super Mario Galaxy vs. (4) The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Moltar’s Analysis Super Mario Galaxy Round 1 - 74.79% on Beyond Good and Evil Round 2 - 59.90% on Pokemon R/S/E Galaxy not looking too hot. Twilight Princess Round 1 - 79.38% on Shenmue Round 2 - 68.87% on Dragon Age: Origins TP looking great. Galaxy deserves to win not only this match, but the whole contest. Unfortunately, only a small part of GameFAQs agrees with this. No one else cares for it, which explains why it’s only a tough midcarder in these Contests. Twilight Princess, on the other hand, is a beast. Link > Mario and new Zelda > new Mario. Galaxy isn’t going to win this one. I mean, it failed to break 60% on RSE while Brawl goes and gets 70% on DPP, a game Galaxy had trouble with last year. Hate to say it, but Galaxy isn’t worth much. Not only would TP win by a good margin without SFF, but with it? RIP Galaxy. Moltar’s Bracket: Zelda TP wins Moltar’s Prediction: Zelda TP - 65% Lopen’s Analysis I had Mario Galaxy in this match, but when the Zelda game gets over 10% more on Dragon Age than the Mario game gets on Pokemon Bad, well, one thing becomes clear: You can't stop the Zelda machine. Lopen's prediction: Twilight Princess with 58.74% Transience’s Analysis This match is like a miniature version of the Ocarina of Time / Super Mario 64 match from 2004. In that match, OOT absolutely obliterated Mario, getting nearly 80% and scaring the hell out of everyone who had FF7 in their brackets. TP is no OOT, but Galaxy is no Mario 64 either. Galaxy has some serious support for Best Game Ever, something Twilight Princess will never get. Because of that, I don't think TP can blitz Galaxy in the way that it probably should, but it's still going to be a no-doubter. If TP can't get 60% here I'll probably just blame the weird Nintendo fanbase. It's funny - Galaxy is way more loved than TP but is way weaker. Mario just ain't what it used to be. transience's prediction: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess with 63.49% |
Leon’s Analysis It’s weird how contests give you rooting interests that are based on something other than your own personal preference. There are characters I like and dislike based solely on Character Battles. While I like Twilight Princess, Super Mario Galaxy is one of my favorite games of all-time. And yet, part of me wants Twilight Princess to crush Galaxy into a fine powder so all these delusional weirdos who still think Galaxy has a semblance of strength will finally have to relent and admit they were wrong. Seriously, I saw people pre-contest touting that they thought Galaxy would break 40% on Twilight Princess here. What the heck, man? There’s no way it avoids getting SFF’d here, especially after the number Brawl put up on it last contest. Yes, in an ideal world, Galaxy should reach the finals of this contest, but we don’t live in one. We live in a world (or we browse a site, whatever) where people don’t care about modern Mario games anymore (and I fully blame Super Mario Sunshine for this, forever and ever). And for some reason, people don’t seem to believe that Twilight Princess is that strong, but I’d probably put it up there in the top 5 games of this contest (Let’s see…FFX, Melee, Brawl…Uhhh…Yep, those are probably the only games in this contest I’d take over TP). It’s going to crush Galaxy here. I’d consider it a moral victory if it somehow avoided the doubling. Leonhart’s Embarrassing Confession of the Match: I actually haven’t gotten 120 stars with Luigi in Galaxy 1 yet and thus I’ve yet to unlock the Grand Finale Galaxy and 100% the game. That will change soon though! Be sure to keep up with my 3-D Mario Playthrough Topic when it returns! </shameless plug> Leonhart’s Vote: Super Mario Galaxy. Leonhart’s Prediction: Twilight Princess with 69.11% Kleenex’s Analysis Man, this match is going to be ugly. Galaxy hasn't been flopping quite as hard as I thought it might have based on last year (how the hell did it get a 1 seed anyway?) but it's facing ZELDA. And ZELDA has been stomping all over this bracket so far. Twilight Princess has looked about as good as you could hope for it to look, and it's very likely going to utterly embarrass Galaxy tonight. I wouldn't be surprised to see this end up being OoT/SM64-esque. It'll really be that bad. Kleenex's Prediction: Twilight Princess with 72.15% Applekidjosh’s Analysis Are there still any crazy people that think Mario Galaxy has a chance here? I mean putting aside any contest showings so far, the "IT'S FREAKING ZELDA" factor is pretty hard to overcome, especially in a Nintendo SFF battle! I think the general concensus is low 60s, but I'll go a little higher than that and hope for some slaughtering. AKJ says Twilight Princess > Mario Galaxy with 65.00% Crew Consensus: Zelda beats Mario |
Lopen you crazy. --- This is the kind of **** that allowed the Bhopal incident to happen. 5,000 dead Indians. Want that on your damn conscience, Square apologists? |
huh guess I was wrong about low 60s being consensus! --- http://myanimelist.net/profile/applekidjosh <Die the death>! <Sentence to death>! <Great equalizer is the death>!! |
Yup, these contests have changed my preferences. 1. OOT down 2. FFVII up 3. RBY up 4. LTTP up 5. SM64 down 6. Chrono Trigger up 7. Melee neutral 8. Brawl down 9. MGS neutral 10. SMW down 11. SMB3 neutral 12. FFX down 13. Goldeneye up 14. TP down 15. MGS4 down --- Nominate Crono so he can get a higher seed and avoid being fed to Clinkeroth early in the contest. |
I
don't buy the doubling on Galaxy. If SSBM scores barely 70% on a game
Galaxy would do 60-40, I can't see a doubling. I bumped my prediction by
2% but it's low 60s for me. --- *sigh* Lemme get my TI-83+ ...WTF!? Piece of trash!!*throws it away*~Rodri316 during his proof of why -4^2=16 |
yeah uh, I forgot Galaxy/TP was today this is why I don't sign up for guest spots >_> Late Guest Analysis Before the contest, Zelda was considered to be the favorite... and since then, that sentiment has only increased. It's too bad the site doesn't really care for the Galaxy games, because they're some of the absolute best of the past few years. Getting near 60% on a Pokemon game would look pretty good... if the Pokemon game weren't the weakest in the main series, weak enough to let a GTA game stay close to it. And since the Zelda series name still holds its respectability, this isn't going to be pretty. Twilight Princess with 65.43% (ps Mother 3 and Okami are better games than Galaxy!) --- thelefty for analysis crew 2008 imo -tranny I have a third degree burn in flame-o-nomics -Sir Chris |

Nah, relative to Mario 64 and OoT, Galaxy and TP are a lot closer as far as reception goes. I'll take this one with ease! --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Well then. --- This is the kind of **** that allowed the Bhopal incident to happen. 5,000 dead Indians. Want that on your damn conscience, Square apologists? |
Lopen looking like a genius after 3 minutes! --- DFF |
Unfortunately I don't like my chances-- Galaxy is still dropping like a brick. Though I will say I never expected any lopsided SFF in this one and that's probably accurate. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Not really, it's stuck at 57% now. I have 60.25% as prediction but had 58.05 before. Looks good so far. --- *sigh* Lemme get my TI-83+ ...WTF!? Piece of trash!!*throws it away*~Rodri316 during his proof of why -4^2=16 |
Huh yeah it stopped around 43%. Cool. Given Zelda's night vote I expect Galaxy to end somewhere around this area probably. I guess lowballing actually worked for once hurrah. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
when will people learn to stop making conclusions at the freeze --- thelefty for analysis crew 2008 imo -tranny I have a third degree burn in flame-o-nomics -Sir Chris |

Twilight Princess with 60% after the 10 minute update book it. --- This is the kind of **** that allowed the Bhopal incident to happen. 5,000 dead Indians. Want that on your damn conscience, Square apologists? |
I remember last time you said that during this contest cause I called it over when a game was up 60-40 Guess what it was over. I'm a bit less confident about this one but Zelda not finishing with 61% from this point doesn't seem too wishful, given it's Zelda with a night vote facing it. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
So Lefty can I call this my victory yet or is it "still too early" Hahahaha... HAHAHAHA. THE MARIO WAR MACHINE-- augh why can't it do better than this :( --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
TP will push into the 60s, I'm not too worried about that. Galaxy is a power hour beast. 70% predictions were crazy though. --- add the c and back away iphonesience |
[This message was deleted at the request of the original poster] |
Damn it broke 60% Still think it finishes below 60%. "That night vote" --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
nah --- xyzzy |
Man what a weird posting glitch. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Welp, should've picked KH > TP after all! --- Support Barret Wallace (Final Fantasy VII) for Character Battle IX! http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/3834/banner1barret.jpg |
are you serious? --- xyzzy |
Nah, not really. That's just my inner fanboy talking. Still, Dragon Age is looking like crap. MW2 > Dragon Age reconfirmed watch out TP --- Support Otacon (Metal Gear Solid) for Character Battle IX! http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/1950/banner4otacon.jpg |
yeah I was never sold on Dragon Age. when people were calling it the strongest 2009 game I really hesitated. this is a bad match to gauge TP by though. we knew it would be weird. 70% predictions were insane though. --- xyzzy |
Crew Predictions - 92/102 What Happened: Smash smashed the competition Why it Happened: CoD4 started off bad, but ends up looking slightly less bad against Melee when it's all over. Then, Pokemon got destroyed by Brawl because...well it's Brawl. What will Happen: It's Melee/Brawl. I can't really say anything more. Who knows what happens there.

UH OH forgot to write this, quickie for now! Kingdom Hearts 1 vs Kingdom Hearts 2 Nostalgia? Nope, KH1 too recent. Respect? Nope, KH2 the better game. Innovation/importance? None to speak of!
