Post by: Forty on February 13, 2008, 04:04:50 PM
Welcome to the Top 100 Video Game Characters Ever awards

There is only one problem, I need your votes!
This is how its going to work.

I will now show you'll my submission.

1. Megaman (Megaman series)
2. Ryu (Street Fighter series)
3. Bowser (Super Mario Bros. series)
4. Nightmare (Soul Calibur series)
5. Lloyd (Tales of Symphonia)

There is more than one problem. Put simply: your system is flawed. If everyone posted, say... Jigglypuff as their 4th favorite character, there's a strong possibility that Jigglypuff would be the #1 favorite character. This makes absolutely no sense (aside from the fact it's Jigglypuff) because it should be #4 since EVERYONE voted that way.

Also when does it end?
What if you don't get 100 different characters submitted?

1. Nintendogs (Nintendogs)
2. Marty McFly (Back to the Future series)
3. Slime (100s of games)
4. Mario's Hat (Mario series)
5. Skeleton (Castlevania series)

Because their would have to be something higher than jigglypuff.

I also just decided to also run this poll at Stencyl forums

I don't think you understand. And my votes were serious.
Title: Re: Top 100 Video Game Characters Ever
Post by: Forty on February 14, 2008, 11:09:15 PM
Lets say this
Character 1 will get 5 votes towards him
Character 2 will get 4 votes towards him
Character 3 will get 3 votes towards him
Character 4 will get 2 votes towards him
Character 5 will get 1 votes towards him

And Im sorry, your post didn't really seem serious
because
1. Nintendogs (Nintendogs)
2. Marty McFly (Back to the Future series)
3. Slime (100s of games)
4. Mario's Hat (Mario series)
5. Skeleton (Castlevania series)
Mario's Hat is an item and slime and skeleton are enemies.
I was looking for larger characters in games.

Character 4 will get 2 votes towards him
Character 5 will get 1 votes towards him

Yes I know. But (even though it would be very unlikely) if Jigglypuff was voted for Character 4 all 100 times (or however many times people vote) then that would be 200 points; very likely to become the #1 VG Character even though no one voted Jigglypuff for their favorite.

And Im sorry, your post didn't really seem serious

Maybe :V

I agree with Cloud being overrated. He's kind of stale and boring. Never wants to do anything, doesn't really care about anyone. Okay, I can see how that comes off as cool in some people's eyes, but they could've made him less boring by giving him a little more of a caring side, but only a little bit.

Sephiroth is a cool villain though. I find his sheer insanity appealing in the sort of player-to-character-way that all characters should have. Plus, his sword is pretty rad. I know, fanboy-ish, but I like fancy weapons. ;D
Title: Re: Top 100 Video Game Characters Ever
Post by: haloOfTheSun on March 25, 2008, 01:45:41 AM
The reason Cloud is popular is because FF7 was the first Final Fantasy game most people have played.

As for Sephiroth, I find him to be a much less intriguing clone of Kefka.

Hm, you've got a good point there. Kefka is both insanely evil and sort of funny at the same time.

That means you were like, 2 when it was released.

Sounds old to me.
Title: Re: Top 100 Video Game Characters Ever
Post by: SexualBubblegumX on April 12, 2008, 08:22:24 PM
Honestly for a Game to be truly OLD it has to be from the SNES days and earlier.
Title: Re: Top 100 Video Game Characters Ever
Post by: Arkbennett on April 12, 2008, 08:32:46 PM
No they don't. The PS1 is OLD now too.

Check your generations. The PS1 was in the 5th, SNES was in the 4th.
If SNES was old in the 6th generation, that means the PS1 should be "OLD" now.
As we are in the 7th.

On top of that. The earlier Final Fantasy games were remade 6-8 years after their initial release, by that time they were still considered "OLD". So you can't consider a game that was made 11 years ago "OLD"? That's mentally retarded.
Title: Re: Top 100 Video Game Characters Ever
Post by: SexualBubblegumX on April 12, 2008, 08:44:06 PM
It's far from retarded, one reason the PS1 doesn't feel 'old' is because that's when developers started caring more about shiny graphics than gameplay. For something to be truly old it has to be from that kinder gentler era of gaming when no one gave a second thought of graphics and just wanted their games to be fun. The PS1 pretty much started how gaming is now, Graphics are almost always priority #1.

I disagree, people started caring about the graphics in THIS generation.
Which is why they are  literally 'shiny'.
Have you not noticed Final Fantasy VII's polygon graphics recently?

Pffft! When that game came out the first thing people always said was 'OMG THE GRAPHICS RULE!' Then they'd tell you that Aeris Dying was a shame.

NOW, when people talk about FF7 they just say Aeris Dying was a shame.

'Nuff said.

Actually, no one would of said 'OMG TEH GRAPHICS' If the developers didn't try and make the graphics good.

Also you pointed out what people other than deveopers think about graphics before I gave that example. Please don't play Devil's Advocvate.

Final Fantasy 8 was made a year or so after 7 and it did have a significant improvement graphics wise.
I seriously doubt the developers threw in all their chips for graphics.

I don't  understand your question.

Post by: SexualBubblegumX on April 12, 2008, 09:42:45 PM
Considering how the FMV looked I'd say they a very signifigant effort into the graphics. Also The fact FF8 had better graphics doesn't mean Square wasn't trying to make the graphics good. When they made FF8 they had a better understanding of how to make games for the PS1.

Also if by question you mean 'don't play Devil's Advocate' . I'm pretty much saying, please don't play both sides, which to me it seemed liek you were doing so.
Title: Re: Top 100 Video Game Characters Ever
Post by: Arkbennett on April 12, 2008, 09:53:23 PM
Your not making sense anymore.
FF8's FMV's were clearly better than FF7, so how could they not put effort into 8's graphics, but according to you, that's all the effort they put into 7 even though 8 beat it graphically in every way.

Not only that, it's agreeable that both 7 & 8 both had very good storylines. (To the general public)

I'm not playing Devils Advocate when we're not even talking about the main point of this debate anymore.

The point is: Final Fantasy 7 is over a decade old now. It's age exceeds my 5 year old little sisters twice over.
I think it's safe to say, it's an old game.
Title: Re: Top 100 Video Game Characters Ever
Post by: SexualBubblegumX on April 12, 2008, 10:06:48 PM
I was making perfect sense, it just seems like you weren't paying attention.

In this case age alone will not make the ps1 'old'. Sure it's ober ten years old, but it is FAR from the golden age of games where graphics weren't an issue. For a game to be old it does have to be from that time when graphics weren't a priority. Whether you want to admit it or not, the PS1 started the whole 'graphics are a priority' issue that in gaming now. It is NOT old because the ps1 CONTEMPORARY.


/aguement done.

Your ignoring the fact that FF8 beats 7 graphically, and saying that the developers for 7 put more effort into graphics than they did 8. That makes no sense, and you know that so you resort to blaming my ability to interpret what you say. And I don't think 'graphics are a priority' isn't the black plague of this day and age in gaming as people say. I believe it's more of shitty ass script writers than anything. When you produce games, everything is set in divisions. It's not like RPG Maker where it's one entity making a game.

And the PS1 is NOT contemporary, it was made in 1994 and the Super Nintendo was made 1990. The only thing seperating their generation is a few years. Your saying a console from 1994 is currently in 'our' age? In 2008? That's mental.

I agree, debate is over.
Title: Re: Top 100 Video Game Characters Ever
Post by: SexualBubblegumX on April 12, 2008, 10:25:14 PM
I NEVER said that more graphical effort was put into FF7. You clearly are not paying attantion.

And yes it is contemorary because it has the the conteporary attitude that graphics are number one on the to do list. You're the one whose logic doesn't make sense here.


Also to get back on topic, I want to replace Alias with Zero on my list.

I heard that FF7 was originally meant to be on the N64.

The Ps1 was kinda contemporary.  It was obviously mean to replace the large box that was released around the same time N64. Kinda like the downgrade  version of the ps2 that was a fail.

Think about it from a buisness sense:
Would you rather make a product on par with other competiting products?
Or would you make a product that is better with other competiting products?
Better product, more profits.

FF7 was origionally meant to be on N64, since every other final fantasy was on a nintendo console at the time, but the cartridges didn't have enough space fo fit the whole game so they put it on disks on the ps1. If it was on N64 the graphics would have been so much better. Although i'm not sure if an n64 can run cinematics.
