Which is best? - Results (12 votes)
Final Fantasy VIII
16.67% (2 votes)
2
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
83.33% (10 votes)
10
The rules are simple: The best of N64 vs the best of PS1. Each battle will have one victor, the winner survives and fights again until they are eliminated. Should be a good match up. Vote for whichever game you like best.

New Rule: If a combatant wins 5 rounds, it will take a 5 round rest. (Since there's only one game left, this rule will no longer be in effect)

Misfit Opinion: According to the poll, ffviii will proceed as follows. I don't care for legend of zelda, I should probably try to play this game again at some point, but I don't think I'd be too into it regardless.

N64
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

I did play it briefly, I said I did. I bought it at a used game shop like 6 years ago in order to play it. Did for a bit, but put it up on Amazon for almost double what I paid for it (got $35 for it...before fees) and then sold it before I had a chance to really get into it...

Hyperbole. Gotta be consistent, and if it was that much of a problem then people should have opted to vote for the redo from the poll.

Yup, seeing how FFVIII is getting support, this will be a battle of titans.

I'll be siding with Ocarina of Time.

I accidentally voted for Heck No because I thought it was Final Fantasy VII. We need a redo.

Anyone confused by Roman numerals aren't the target market for final fantasy anyway.

OoT was a shorter more contained story, so points for that, FF VII had more interesting game mechanics that when exploited were very broken and powerful.

Both games are equal. Both are a pinical of the medium.

So you posted the topic, never bumped it, didn't even bother to put "survival" in the topic title or mention the poll in any other topic, and are now acting kind of snarky about it in spite of the fact that it wouldn't actually have been on the first page (or even the second page) for the majority of the time it was up.

I don't even really care about the results of this thing, but I'm still calling bullshit on you there.

Now I'm assuming you just wanted FFVIII to win, and am now happy to see it getting its dick kicked in in spite of the fact that I generally dislike OoT almost as much.

FF VIII won 5 rounds, doesn't it get a rest now?

In any case, I'll vote for just about any game over OoT, other than FF7 (I sit those inevitable showdowns out).

Read the op. Since there's only one game left, it really doesn't matter if it rests or not since it has to face it regardless.

Not if OoT is eliminated before it gets through 5 PS1 games.

This is bs, just giving OoT a cheap easy win against a game that's now hated b/c of "number confusion" and facing the staleness of being in the contest for so long.

Gee this is hard. A game with a boring, turn-based combat system that is purely story driven. If I wanted that, I'd grab a book and play a game of chess.

OoT has action. It's fun and adventurous.

This is genuinely a difficult one. Both are very good. If it only were 7 in the poll, I could easily vote for Ocarina, but 8?

It is close, but I think I am going with Ocarina. (Playing Zelda Musou might have something to do with that...)
