My votes? Samus, Bowser, Crono, Sonic.

Well, maybe if we're heading towards another Mario/Bowser SFF snoozefest I'll do what I shouldn't do and toss my vote to Snake, but I doubt we're going to get in that situation anyway.

Hey, what can I say? I don't care for Vincent at all. Mario, Snake, and Mega Man are "okay" to me. But Samus, Bowser, Crono, and Sonic are all in my top 10!

And if someone even thinks of spoiling Advent Children for me without warning, I will seriously have their head... Tales of Symphonia was already enough. I seriously hope that any spoiling of Advent Children is grounds for instant suspension!

I was hoping to get some feedback...


*Mutters incoherently in back of topic*


Anyway, what I'm really interested in is how much AC is going to affect gaming and FFVII fans. I honestly have no idea how popular it will turn out to be here...

Everything was said about it weeks ago, the match was entirely inevitable so we had time to work it off before the contest began. It's not like Vincent/Squall where most of us didn't see it coming until this were set in motion.

The only thing that's actually different is that Mario proved so far that he can win without actually needing to rSFF Samus.

And by the way, given what we've seen so far, unless Mario wins decisively, Mithos > Lloyd is still holding. And now that I've played the game, I understand just how wrong that is. Lloyd didn't exactly light my fires, but Mithos... bleh.

Samus, Snake, Vincent, Sonic

Samus, because of the Metroid, Snake because he's awesome, Vincent because I hate Crono, and Sonic because it's not MMX. Man...if I had a favorites bracket, it'd be doing awful right now.

As for AC...the action was awesome, but the plot was incredibly bad. Really, really, dumb. Vincent wasn't great in it either, and neither were Rude/Reno...their fights were so depressing, considering how cool they were in the game. Tifa and Cloud have good action scenes, but their characters are worse than they were in the game too.

Isn't that kind of hard to play when you "buy" and play it that way? The game does require good reflexes. That's kind of hard to mimic on that particular system.

Mischief Makers wasn't meant to be played with a joystick, so this worked well with the type of controller I have. =P Games like Star Fox 64 and Conker's Bad Fur Day, however, could prove to be a pain.

I actually think the Bowser/Snake pic is fairly danged ugly, so I don't see much in the way of an advantage going to either side based on sprites.

Most I can say about it is that Bowser's recognizable thru the fuzz engulfing his pic. Snake's not. I doubt'll be enough to sway momentum THAT much in Koopa's favor.

Yeah; behind that fuzz is one pissed bulldog. Bowser still has the advantage, but it's solely due to being recognizable; it's a poor picture.

Not only does Snake get a sprite, Bowser gets the home field advantage despite being the lower seed. Yeah, that makes sense.

XD at the match pics. I don't particularly like Samus's yellow color, but she should still be able to pull it out against our favorite plumber. I'm voting for Mario, but I hope Samus wins for my bracket's sake. Bowser is going to give Snake one hell of a match, that's for sure. I <3 you CjayC for that match pic.

I'd love to see Bowser win, but I didn't think he mad much of a chance. However that pic certainly makes it more possible.

Though I cannot comprehend why Bowser would have home field, unless Ceej is just alternating home field to whoever is on top/bottom of the bracket.

Which is incredibly stupid.

Mario, Solid, Vincent, Mega

*High fives HaRRicH*

Bowser getting the bridge is jacked, though. Bowser's a bloody 2 seed. Still, it doesn't matter, Bowser and Snake both look horrible, and Snake might get joke votes from the NES crowd.

I still think Snake will win comfortably. And Master Chief outranking the Devil Division will be hilarious. Like I said, makes Dante look like crap but I'm still all about it.

And what I just mentioned looks to be exactly what he's doing, as the advantages go to Mario (on top), Bowser (bottom), Crono (top), and...Mega Man? (bottom) Mega Man I'm not sure about.

If true, it's just unbelievably nonsensical.

Sonic has Green Hill Zone in the foreground, while Mega gets the background.

And I don't think there's anything from any of Vincent's games in their match.

So, no...I think he's just trying to screw Snake. <.<
