GameFAQs Best Game Ever 2009

JrDude · May 30, 2009, 04:34:42 PM

Whether you know it or not, GameFAQs is holding a poll contest to decide which game is overall the best, it has been going on for a long time. Currently, it seems like Nintendo is basically the favorite. Here are the current results.
The Bracket
As you can see, Nintendo made it into the Div Finals every time so far, will it win overall?
Which game do you think will win? If you haven't been, will you now vote in the polls?

Of what's moved on, or can move on....my picks would be:

RE4
MGS4
SMB3
and "Pokémon"

Some of the others are incredibly weak choices. And how Battletoads and DKCx didn't move on is beyond me.

I've been keeping up with it since it started, actually.

They chose Metal Gear Solid over Majora's Mask. I'm disgusted.

MGS defined a genre in which every game after it tried to mimic it. MM just perfected a genre. Both are totally worthy though.

ALTHOUGH, knowing the twats on the internet these days, I wouldn't be surprised if Halo or FF7 won for no reason other than the fanboys.

FF7 will win, like always on GameFAQS. It could be a competition for best sports game and it would still win.

It annoys me that Gold/Silver and R/B/Y were in the same division.

There was no "Tales of" game except Tales of Symphonia which I didn't think came close to the best(but was still great) and everything else I really thought deserved it was out in the first round.
Exp. Fire Emblem, Xenogears( :|), Lufia II, Final Fantasy Tactics(Tactics > Every FF game together).

Gonzales: They were putting 16 games in the spot of every 3 years (except the first division), and they were made in the same 3 years.
Sonic: GameFAQs didn't decide, users who wrote long reports did. Source

I understand that, it's just annoying.

They have Brawl advancing.....Brawl was the worst game of all-time so this entire contest is null and void.

Poll is absolute poop.
Twilight Princess beat Half Life 2.

Also, what the intercourse .
Brawl beat Persona 4.
This poll sucks dick.

Maybe not of all time. But of the Smash series. It was a huge letdown.
I agree, Echo. Thank you.

Where can you vote?

Oh, and I'd vote for FFX, Zelda: TP and Brawl.

At first, I thought "What the heck!?", then I remembered that 60+% of the people who voted are probably casual gamers.

Casual-SSBB
Hardcore-FFVII

Dude, you're bound to get shot for saying it was hardcore at this point of the year around here.

(Not saying I'm going to).

I wasn't talking about what I thought, I was talking about what the hardcore n00bs thought.
