Not to mention Crono/Mario's craziness was that Crono seemingly had an insurmountable lead with like 2 hours to go and Mario somehow managed to win (aided by the poll being open for longer than 24 hours). My thoughts exactly. I didn't check GameFAQs till now (assumed a 24-hour delay), but the vibes from this topic had me thinking CT/LttP. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

plasmabeam 04/20/20 1:57:13 PM #110 | CaptainOfCrush posted... Odyssey looked better in Round 1, but we're now seeing evidence that those 85% fodder blowouts might not mean a whole lot. Mario came down to earth a bit in Round 2, so while I'm not supremely confident in Smash or anything, I wouldn't change my bracket if given the chance. Another thing... If SSBU/SMO is tight, Smash has far better rally potential. Only way Odyssey wins is if it's somehow a 55-45 match in its favor. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

plasmabeam 04/20/20 1:54:41 PM #109 | My dumbest picks:
At the moment, I don't yet regret TLOU > Dark Souls. I'm well aware DS has been more impressive, but both games are still relatively untested, and I wouldn't rule out an upset. When I made my bracket, I kept thinking, "Dark Souls couldn't crack 30% on LttP, but I think TLOU could." --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

plasmabeam 04/20/20 1:34:31 PM #102 | BlAcK TuRtLe posted... My biggest regret is not stickign with the Witcher upset against Skyrim. I had it in my bracket for the longest time and changed it at the last minute for god only knows what reason. Last-minute jitters. I do the same thing almost every contest. Switching to Mario > Sephiroth in '03 and Melee > Brawl in '10 were among some of my worst. This time around, the only stupid last-minute thing I did was taking Berseria > HK. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

plasmabeam 04/19/20 8:43:54 PM #455 | Yuri_LowelI posted... the question is. Those lttp voters...what game are they more likely to side with oot or BOTW? BotW dominated 2017 polls, and 2017 is widely regarded as one of the best gaming years ever. Outside of OoT, MM, and maaaybe LttP, I can't see BotW losing a non-rallied match. CT, FF7, and Pokemon RBY might be able to keep it close, but Zelda is dominant and BotW is the definitive Nintendo game of the past 10-20 years. And this is coming from a guy who personally thinks it's the worst 3D Zelda. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

Side note: When I saw early screenshots of FF13-Versus, I always thought, "That's the next FF8!" Then FF15 happened and the disappointment still hasn't left my system. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

plasmabeam 04/19/20 8:32:08 PM #434 | ZeldaTPLink posted... Actually the one BotW appears in shows LttP beating both. LttP wins the 2D vote easily, while OoT has to split the 3D vote with five other Zeldas. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

plasmabeam 04/19/20 12:37:11 PM #21 | Kamekguy posted... It's a lot less pure logic puzzles and a lot more lateral/geometrical thinking. Like those Phoenix Wright cases where you constantly point at the floor plans and go "THIS is where the person was!". That said, the mid game is definitely its weakest point, and the endgame is generally agreed to be REALLY good. So... kind of? It does go up from where you're at, but Chapters 3 and 4 have mixed receptions, very "love it or hate it". @Kamekguy Thanks for the spoiler-free insight. I wanted to love D2 but the Chapters in general felt about 25% longer than those in the previous game. At least now I know the endgame is worth shooting for. Might pick up D2 again once I finish AI: The Somnium Files. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

plasmabeam 04/19/20 12:29:24 PM #293 | squexa posted... This entire division just looks awful. Nier and Skyrim for obvious reasons, but this Pokemon performance is pretty underwhelming tbh, just good in comparison because Nier's looking even worse. The division was an eyesore from day one. Should've swapped out Nier for another 2/3 seed to make the division final interesting. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

Games like Persona and Skyrim are just mini bosses for it to shove out of the way. Honestly. I thought W3/SMG2 might be interesting before the other night. Now I'm wondering if SMG2 can crack 40%.

Yeah, I nom'd Ys VIII, so I'm thrilled what Sonic is doing for it right now. More people need to play that series. It's a crime that Ys has been around so long, yet nobody's heard of it. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

plasmabeam 04/15/20 5:15:09 PM #283 | BlAcK TuRtLe posted... I never played it, as the RE games don't really do it for me, but based on the feedback, it would have been a better choice than most of the bracket. Melee was a HUGE jump from Smash 64 in terms of gameplay (side-B moves, dodging, etc.). Brawl did nothing to evolve the gameplay, it merely added more characters and a single player mode that was decent at best. The online was terrible. Smash 4 was the first one with decent online. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

plasmabeam 04/15/20 5:09:03 PM #278 | MechanicalWall posted... RE4 was probably the game that balanced both critical and commercial success on top of being highly influential last decade, IMO This I can agree with. Over-the-shoulder 3rd Person Shooters (and some other genres like Batman games and survival horror) owe everything to RE4. RE4 or GTA3 seems most sensible to me, and this is coming from a guy who hates GTA. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

plasmabeam 04/15/20 5:04:14 PM #269 | BlAcK TuRtLe posted... I guess this comes down to the age old argument. Do you just vote for the game you liked better (like Persona fanboys are doing today), or do you actually factor in what makes a game objectively great? P4G is objectively better than any "follow the map marker" game out there. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

It's inoffensive as fuck and doesn't excel at anything. Okami was better than TP. TP is a dark masterpiece. The bland, soulless 3D Zelda you're thinking of is called Breath of the Wild. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

plasmabeam 04/15/20 12:36:34 PM #176 | WarThaNemesis2 posted... Well, SOTN is significantly stronger than RE2, for one. SotN >>> RE2 1998 I agree with you on. But RE2 Remake is in a unique situation because it draws strength from its modern and classic incarnations. If we held SotN vs RE2 Remake today, SotN would likely win because of the Castlevania TV show boosting it. But I don't see any reason to believe that pre-Netflix SotN (the 2015 version that beat DKC2 62-38) would be significantly stronger than RE2 Remake. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |

plasmabeam 04/15/20 12:19:42 PM #165 | WarThaNemesis2 posted... In a year where Mega Man X is worth 45% on FFX and SMRPG is stronger than the entire MGS and RE series, I'd easily take DKC2 to put 46% on RE2. DKC2 couldn't put 38% on SotN. Where is it finding the strength to put 46% on an acclaimed remake of one of SotN's PS1 contemporaries? DKC games don't have that kind of firepower. Look what happened to Tropical Freeze last week. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ |
