MK has never been that great for game play.
And then MK11 in particular had extremely regressive censorship policies. Worst MK game. Glad to see it getting DESTROYED in the poll!

Because Odyssey is an absolute masterpiece of a game. It's going to beat most things, and that's quite reasonable.

Regardless of what you think about the gameplay, mortal kombat has always had pretty cool lore for a fighting game. Also Odyssey was a great game and probably my favorite Mario since 64

Agreed.
Never had much interest in the games, but loved the tv show Mortal Kombat Conquest (such a shame it never got a season 2) and first movie (2nd was...ok...). Also watched the cartoon.
Great lore and setting, stupidly wasted on a concept where characters die after most fights so you can't actually develop a long term story for most of them w/o dumb reboots or making the humans not-so-"mortal". MKC was the best MK property precisely b/c you got to know the characters and see them develop.

Because this is Nintendofaqs that's why

Doesn't matter how good or bad a game is because it's Nintendo

That said I am genuinely surprised DMC5 is beating Donkey Kong

Only happens a handful of times in any given contest

We all know GotD will be Mario or Zelda

Or because people like it. Its kind of dumb that people use this whenever Nintendo wins anything. It does matter if Nintendo only wins one thing out of a hundred. People would still blame it winning due to being Nintendofaqs instead of being good...

In order this place is NostalgiaFAQs > SonyFAQs > NintendoFAQs. It just so happens Nintendo has the most nostalgia but other classics like FF7 are always in the same tier. Anything modern has heavy Sony bias.

This is why I ignore the whole thing. Mario and Zelda are too long-lasting and popular to not be the finalists. Unless you somehow abuse the vote to get like MGS or GTA up there.

So why dont they just remove the obvious Nintendo games that win it every year? P sure each year the winner is something like Zelda, Mario, Zelda, Mario, Metroid.

so tf is the point of having a contest each damn year? If a game wins a year, or even multiple years, put it into a hall of fame never to be voted on again for at least a decade.

Did you actually choose MK?

The point of the tourny isnt to pick what games you liked, its to pick the games that are going to beat out the other games. Well, if youre interested in winning, anyways.

Technically, this contest were having now happens once every 10 years. As its game of the decade. And not of the year, AFAIK...

When did Metroid win one of these? There have been a grand total of two Metroid games released in the past decade, one of which was a remake and the other of which barely qualifies as Metroid (Federation Force), neither of which excited people enough for them to win a GotY contest.

Fun GotY facts:

Mass Effect beat Mario in 2010.
Skyrim beat Mario and Zelda in 2011.
Last of Us beat Zelda in 2013.
Final Fantasy beat Pokemon in 2016.
Resident Evil beat Zelda and Fire Emblem in 2020.

NiTeNdO AlWaYs WiNs. Lmao. Now even if you think those polls were influenced by anti-Nintendo, doesnt that actually prove this is antiNintendoGAQs? Lol.

Nintendo has only won three in the last decade: two were Smash Bros (Gamefaqs has an absurdly huge Smash community so this isn't a surprise) and one was Breath of the Wild. Mario hasn't won once, not even Super Mario Galaxy 2 which is one of the highest rated games of all time.

but its appeal as a brutal fighting game is far more limited than a well-reviewed mainline mario game

i perfectly understand liking MK11 more, but that's a wholly separate issue than expecting it to win in a popularity contest

I mean, to be fair, all three of those are games that are structured to review extremely well. It takes very little time to get into them, they're consistently high-quality all the way through, no glaring flaws that a reviewer in the course of conducting their review... Compared to the experience most reviewers get of other games, they're easy 10's, even if other games might be more enjoyable in the experience of a regular player. That said, the user scores for all three are very close to the critical average, so really, they're just very likable games that nobody wants to rate poorly.

They're basically the Princess Bride of video games: Not necessarily the best ever, but thoroughly lovable and very hard to genuinely dislike.

Eh, you can have good games that take a while to get rolling and are enjoyable enough to overlook dips in quality and obvious flaws. Pretty much any game with significant character growth is going to have a slow start due to not having access to any of the customization that gives the game its depth, which can make them harder to review. There's something to be said for not showing your entire hand immediately.
