I think expecting SotC to have a shot at MGS1 is kinda wishful thinking. It'll do well, but win? Can't see it.

I mean are you guys really going to back a 2000s game against a 90s game

Division 8: Round 1 - Match 61 – (3) Metal Gear Solid 3 vs. (14) Mother 3

Moltar’s Analysis

Mother 3 is back in a US-centric contest when it was never officially released over here, woo!

Last time, it did better than expected against DMC3. This time, it faces a much stronger 3 named MGS3. True, Earthbound did look good in its match, but that game is stronger than Mother 3 for various reasons and would also get stomped by MGS3.

Moltar’s Bracket: Metal Gear Solid 3

Moltar’s Prediction: Metal Gear Solid 3 – 72%



Transience’s Analysis

Alright, Metal Gear, this is your chance to show me what you've got. MGS1 ended up doing alright but 2, 4 and 5 all didn't look that great. 2 looked okay but certainly didn't impress against an old Resident Evil title. 4 looks worse by the day and 5, well, who knows.

Mother 3 is a game that never came out in NA. You have to be serious to have played this game. The thing is, this site is freaking serious about games like this. Remember, a major pillar of Chrono Trigger's strength is emulation. Mother 3 avoided a doubling against DMC3, and while that game is weak, it's well-known. Mother 3 is not.

So what does that mean for MGS3? Honestly, I have no idea. This fanbase is passionate. Mother 3 could get 30% and I wouldn't blink -- or there could be a dumb rally for it. Who knows! I don't think I expect Mother 3 to get beat down but MGS3 is as good a game as any to do it just because it has that same, passionate fanbase behind it. I think the Mother fanbase does its thing and gets its percentage. They aren't abandoning that game for a big tentpole release like Metal Gear.

transience's prediction: Metal Gear Solid 3 with 71.85%



Leon’s Analysis

Whew, the final day of round 1 is upon us! This is kind of an interesting match just to see what MGS3 can do. I wonder what the expectation would be if we hadn’t seen Mother 3 in GOTD. I know we were expecting Devil May Cry 3 of all things to go 80%+ on Mother 3 because it never got officially released in America, and it only ended up with 65% there. MGS3 is on another level from DMC3, so it should be able to go quite a bit higher. At the same time, as much as I love Metal Gear Solid 3, it never really impresses when it has the chance. This is a perfect “flex your muscles” match, so if it wants to show it’s got a shot against big brother MGS1 later on, it needs to take advantage of it.

Kleenex’s Analysis

The final day of the first round is here, and it should be a pretty straightforward one. Earthbound managed to do well for itself yesterday, but sadly Mother 3 will not repeat today. Just getting in the bracket is a feat of its own considering this game came out almost 10 years ago and was never actually released outside of Japan. People have been clamoring for a VC release forever and it looks like it might actually happen in the not so distant future, but for now it has to settle for getting crushed by Metal Gear. MGS3 seems like it’s the second strongest Metal Gear around here and that’s more than enough to for it to knock out Mother 3. Unless the DEBOOST is real, but I think MGS1 kinda squashed that yesterday.

Metal Gear Solid 3 with 71%



Guest’s Analysis - SSBM_Guy

I feel obligated to do this write-up since I'm one of the few gurus here who have MGS3 winning the entire tournament. It's all about this plan that Snake is always good at being rallied and MGS3 will be going against the impossible juggernaut of OoT, and MGS3 is now at its most popular because of MGSV backlash where fans would look back to the "good ol days." It....it made sense to me. I knew it was a crazy upset that has a 0.01% chance of happening, but if it did...!

Anyways, MGS has not had a good Round 1. As I write this, MGS2 is around 56-58% against Resident Evil 1. Not a blow-away performance by any means. MGS3 is also gonna have an embarrassing round. Poor performance by MGS as a whole and against Mother 3 of all games. Mother 3 had a match in Game of the Decade and was able to get 18,000 votes against Devil May Cry 3. I have a feeling something similar will occur. A similar number of Mother 3 fans will be dedicated enough to find GameFAQs and vote for it. With the low vote totals, it will look especially bad against MGS3. Add that MGS3 isn't exactly a game that lands blowouts and...well. You'll get something similar.

RE currently has 14,000 votes. I expect roughly that many votes for Mother 3. 10,000 at the very least. I have a feeling MGS3 will look even worse than DMC3, but that's just because of the vote totals and Mother 3's fanbase, not necessarily MGS3's strength. And besides, this just sets up MGS3's status as an underdog, which is exactly what it wants to be when it goes against OoT!

Metal Gear Solid 3 - 61%
Mother 3 - 39%

Division 8: Round 1 - Match 62 – (6) BioShock vs. (11) Silent Hill 2

Moltar’s Analysis

Bioshock Infinite did alright against Fallout, and the original should be even stronger than that. Looks like the series (excluding 2) is still a solid performer on the site.

Silent Hill has been in a couple of these contests and never wins because it's too weak. Well, the same should hold true here as well.

Moltar’s Bracket: BioShock

Moltar’s Prediction: BioShock – 66%



Transience’s Analysis

Okay, so I have no idea what people expect out of this match other than that everyone just picked Bioshock and moved on.

This one worries me though! Bioshock is the modern, refined survival horror FPS that people really take to, but Silent Hill 2 is a classic. It's still spoken highly of today despite the janky controls and how old it is. Being old is a positive here though - I mean, Silent Hill keeps getting characters into character battles because it's so iconic and important. If there's any old > new stuff going on here, it could be pretty interesting.

I'm backing Bioshock because its little brother held up surprisingly well against Fallout: New Vegas, but I don't know man. I'm thinking Silent Hill keeps this respectable.

transience's prediction: Bioshock with 56.75%



Leon’s Analysis

There’s not much to discuss here. Silent Hill 2 is a well respected game by those who’ve played it, but it’s still relatively niche. It only got 36% against Vice City in GOTD. BioShock was one of the bigger original titles from the last generation and backed it up with a 43-44% on Kingdom Hearts II (better than MGS4 did earlier this round!). BioShock doesn’t have much of a chance against MGS3 next round regardless, I think, but it should still manage to look good here.

Leonhart’s Vote: BioShock

Leonhart’s Prediction: BioShock with 69.31%



Kleenex’s Analysis

Unlike Infinite, Bioshock the original has the advantage of being remembered fondly. Silent Hill is all kinds of weak, and even if Bioshock is only a low-midcarder kind of entry at best, that’s still enough to take down a match against fodder like this. I could see Bioshock looking way better here than it has any right to look and maybe some people will (incorrectly) start to talk about it beating Metal Gear next round, but that would be a pretty dumb thing to do!

Division 8: Round 1 - Match 63 – (7) Starcraft vs. (10) Destiny

Moltar’s Analysis

Gross match. Both of these games aren’t very strong and have passionate fanbases that could be the deciding factor if the match is close.

Starcraft has the more proven record on the site (and its older, which does wonders in this contest), so I like its chances here more. Plus, it has that respect factor going for it.

Destiny has a fair amount of people that like it, but also a lot of people that hate it. Between that and the newness, I wouldn't be surprised if it bombs here.

Moltar’s Bracket: Starcraft

Moltar’s Prediction: Starcraft – 60%



Transience’s Analysis

Here's a funny match. Starcraft is the original game contest's darling, the first rally that showed us the possibilities of our contest and probably the most insane one. Draven's was bigger and L-Block's was more widespread but Starcraft was the original. Those 15 minute update comebacks against Wind Waker and Melee are the stuff of contest legend.

And the game has clearly fallen off since then. Starcraft is 11 years older now and just feels way less relevant now than it was before. It got embarrassed by FF8 in 2009 and, let's face it, FF8 hasn't looked that great. A lot of FF8's raw strength was based on how it wiped out Starcraft. Food for thought, I guess.

Destiny is a huge multimillion seller that's stayed at the top of the FAQ charts for over a year now. It might be the most popular console game in the world for the last 12 months. Of course, none of that matters on GameFAQs but Destiny has this Phantasy Star Online quality to it that really keeps people coming back. I think we appreciate that kind of thing more than your average loot based FPS. Borderlands 2 got replaced hard by Destiny.

But here's the thing: even Destiny players hate Destiny. It's gotten better with Taken King but those bridges were burned long ago. This game has abused its fanbase. Understanding why Destiny players keep playing Destiny would probably require a psychologist. There's something in the loot drip and the social aspect and the solid core mechanics that keeps people coming back -- and they hate themselves for it. But they keep playing.

I don't think Destiny will do particularly well. The only reason I'm not shooting for the stars with Starcraft is that I don't trust PC exclusive 90s games to be worth anything close to what they were in '04. It's probably still better to be one of those than a 2014 FPS though.

Leon’s Analysis

This is an interesting match on paper. Starcraft is a contest legend due to its 2004 run, but it hasn’t been able to generate anything near that level of success again. Kerrigan is one of the biggest duds in contest history, and Starcraft couldn’t come close to beating FFVIII even with FFIX and OoT in the same poll in 2009. On the other hand, Destiny is one of the most divisive games released in recent memory. Even the people who’ve played the crap out of this game seem to hate it. Allen left it out of last year’s GOTY polls, so we don’t even have an idea of what the site generally thinks of it. Probably not much at the time, I imagine. Apparently, the latest expansion has been a big hit with a lot of people, and it’s still regularly played by a large number of gamers. Starcraft II’s final expansion recently came out, but everything about Starcraft II has been a massive disappointment, from what I hear, so I feel like that isn’t going to do anything at all. There was no hype that I knew of for that thing.

I’m still gonna stick with Starcraft though. It’s a proven commodity, and Destiny is just as likely to flop as it is to do well. I’m sure someone will try to rally for it at some point, so who knows what will happen in that case! Maybe Starcraft will start doing better!

Leonhart’s Vote: Starcraft

Leonhart’s Prediction: Starcraft with 56.25%



Kleenex’s Analysis

Blizzard games are 0/3 so far this year. It’s not 2004 anymore. The threat of a Starcraft rally isn’t real. It wasn’t real back in 2009 either and yet people are still paranoid about it to this day. Luckily it won’t need a rally to win this match, because the stank of Destiny is still fresh in peoples’ noses. Despite The Taken King making the game quite enjoyable, the stigma that Destiny gained throughout the past year is not forgotten and a lot of people got burned bad by that game. That kind of negative press is something that stays with you for a long time, and that’s enough to wreck your chances in a contest like this.

Starcraft with 65%



Guest’s Analysis - Black_Turtle

Today's match is an interesting one that hasn't gotten much debate around the board. Starcraft is a pretty heavy favourite, though there is some support for Destiny out there.

Starting with Starcraft, we have a proven quantity based on past contest appearances (including the Cinderella run in 2004). This game has shown to be one of, if not the strongest PC exclusive (crappy N64 ports notwithstanding). On top of that, the Starcraft 2 Legacy of the Void expansion came out last week, which surely won't hurt.

On the other hand we have Destiny, possibly the biggest gaming disappointment since Fable. The game launched last year after much hype and fanfare, but failed to meet most people's expectations. The Taken King expansion released in September has fixed a lot of the issues with the original game, but it feels like damaged goods at this point.

As far as intagibles, Starcraft definitely has the edge in terms of rally power, given the populatiry of TeamLiquid and /r/starcraft, but it shouldn't need that power in this match. This should be a comfortable win for Starcraft that might allow us a look into round 2's match against Mass Effect 2

Division 8: Round 1 - Match 64 – (2) Mass Effect 2 vs. (15) Zero Escape 2: Virtue's Last Reward

Moltar’s Analysis

ME beat Galaxy and ME2 should be stronger. 999 got tripled by P4 and VLR should be weaker. we done here

Shepard: Hello everyone.

Moltar: Oh, this is a surprise, we have a special guest here. Tell the readers who you are.

Shepard: I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite topic on the Internet.

Moltar: Oh man, that’s so nice! I’m sure you truly mean that and don’t just say that about every topic.

Shepard: Whatever idiot.

Moltar: Uh…okay. So Commander Shepard, how do you feel about your series performance so far?

Shepard: Great question, I’ve felt really good. We have a hard fought victory against Mario Galaxy 2, which is a great game in its own right. We also lost in an exciting match against the underdog of the contest, Undertale. I have to tip my hat to those fans, what they showed on that day was nothing but admirable.

Moltar: Wow, so humble in defeat. You think Undertale will go far in the contest?

Shepard: Fuck that piece of shit game and its fans. I hope they all get cancer for not supporting me in that match.

Moltar: Uh whoa there, that’s a bit uncalled for. Are you okay?

Shepard: Yep, this is a really good interview so far and you’re doing an awesome job. Any other questions?

Moltar: Yeah…Anyway, any thoughts on your current opponent?

Shepard: VLR is garbage and I’m going to eradicate that filth and its idiotic fans from this universe.

Moltar: Okay…yeah this interview is over.

Shepard: Alright, it was a pleasure talking to you and I hope you have a great day.

Moltar: Uh you too I guess (what’s the deal with this guy it’s like he has multiple per-).

Shepard: Die scum.

Moltar: OH GOD

Moltar’s Bracket: Mass Effect 2

Moltar’s Prediction: Mass Effect 2 – 82%



Transience’s Analysis

Oh my god round 1 is finally ending. Let's get to the meat of this contest finally! The last match of round 1 is historically a crazy upset, but there's just no chance of that here. VLR is 999's younger brother and 999 might be the weakest game in the first 63 matches. Is VLR worse? Who knows. It's probably the same, much like Phoenix Wright 1 and PW3. Sorry, Skyrim, you're not getting off that easy.

I have a lot of thoughts about Mass Effect 2 but I'm going to save those for a match that matters. My main thought here is that VLR probably looks a little better than 999 just because of its opponent. VLR has a very limited fanbase and that fanbase sticks to Japanese games. Mass Effect 2 is a Western RPG -- let's highlight that it's from the west -- and I think VLR has a chance to maximize its small fanbase. I don't trust that the ME2s of the world can just strangle opponents like a Final Fantasy or a Metal Gear Solid can. A portion of the site just won't touch those crazy western games and their guns and their cover based mechancis. It'll still go to town on VLR but I don't think it hits the 85-90% plateau that it probably deserves.

Leon’s Analysis

We got a sneak preview of this match in P4/999. As much as I love the Zero Escape games (whoo, we’re finally getting the last game of the trilogy), those things are as cult as they come. It doesn’t really matter which game is stronger between 999 and VLR (The difference is probably negligible when the games are so weak), but Mass Effect 2 should be stronger than Persona 4, so if it can’t best P4’s performance here, I’d consider that to be a bit of a disappointment (or maybe it’ll be time to make the leap to P4 > TP!). Not enough to worry about losing next round, but enough to say “forget it” to the possibility of it making a serious run at the division.

Leonhart’s Vote: Mass Effect 2

Leonhart’s Prediction: Mass Effect 2 with 79.85%



Kleenex’s Analysis

Mass Effect 2 is the only real “spoiler” in this division. Without it, Metal Gear would walk away with the win. But Mass Effect has been good this year. Mass Effect 1 looked better than expected to steal a win from Galaxy 2 and Mass Effect 3 wasn’t looking too bad either before you know what happened. ME2 is significantly stronger than both those games. We never got to see it in action in a real contest because it missed the Game of the Decade cutoff by like two weeks, but it stands a good chance to bring the heat today, especially against an opponent like this.

Seriously what in the world is VLR doing here? I love that game (and 999), but what a strange thing. 999 got slaughtered by Persona 4 and Mass Effect 2 is certainly a good deal stronger than Persona. I think you can make a case for VLR being weaker than 999 too. Mass Effect could end up looking really good here, but a monster blowout probably won’t mean much given how truly weak VLR is likely to be.

Mass Effect 2 with 83%



Guest’s Analysis - t_kizzle

(2) Mass Effect 2: 88.89%
(15) Virtue’s Last Reward: 11.11%

What a round 1! And I’m ending it the way I began it, with a guest writeup on one of the largest blowouts of the contest. VLR is actually a really cool game, but if 999 is any indication it’s going to be one of the very weakest games in the whole contest. Persona 4 literally pulled 77% on a game. I know people have been talking up Persona 4 as having boosted, but a performance like that can only mean that 999 is terrible fodder, and VLR is honestly probably even weaker. ME2 is going to look amazing here and tell us absolutely nothing about its chances against the Metal Gears, but at least one Mass Effect in this bracket is going to properly beat up a small little niche title like it’s supposed to! Also, after Skyrim failing to impress, could we be looking at our strongest western game??? Who knows, Mass Effect could really hit any number here and still be in trouble against MGS3.

I dunno, I think BioShock is in that Uncharted 2/Last of Us category of "really respected and highly regarded as one of the best games of the generation."

Not that it really matters. Silent Hill 2 has always been fodder and BioShock can't win next round anyway.

Allen left it out of last year’s GOTY polls, so we don’t even have an idea of what the site generally thinks of it.


I'm pretty sure Allen uses strictly Metacritic scores as the only criteria for choosing the games that appear in each GotY poll (before the overall GotY) and Destiny had a poor Metacritic score at the time the game was released. So it wasn't high enough to get into any of the GotY polls. The Metacritic score thing might also explain why DmC: Devil May Cry made it into a GotY poll despite being universally crapped on by actual gamers.
