Best. Minigame. Ever. (Week 3: I did say I was lazy, right?)
« on: August 06, 2008, 04:05:20 PM »
Mana Khemia is to blame for this being a week late. Well, that and Planescape. And Half-Life. Okay, so I have no attention span. Anyway, onwards to last round's winners:

Fishing (BoF4) (x) vs. Monster Arena (DW4) (ii)
Chocobo Racing (FFVII) (vii) vs. Blitzball (FFX) (xv)
Crazy Motorcycle Chase (FFVII) (v) vs. HaKox (XS3) (vi)
Checkers (S5) (-) vs. Super Jude Bros. (WA4) (xiv)

Drinking Root Beer (CT) (viii) vs. Stupid Judgement Ring Shit (SH) (xiv)
Sidejumping (LoL2) (vii) vs. Bunny Racing (SO3) (iii)

And we have a shutout! Poor, Egbert. You FILTHY DEVILS couldn't even spare him a single vote, huh? Anyway, onwards to the quarterfinals. No crazy flavor text this time. I think I exhausted my material with the elimination rounds.

---

Week 3:

Iron Chef (S2) vs. Triple Triad (FFVIII)
Tetra Master (FFIX) vs. Morrie's MONSTROUS PIT (DQ8)
Fishing (BoF4) vs. Blitzball (FFX)
HaKox (XS3) vs. Super Jude Bros. (WA4)

Failure bracket:

CPR (FFVII) vs. ARM WRESTLING (G2)
Stupid Judgement Ring Shit (SH) vs. Sidejumping (LoL2)

Voting is open for a week (probably!)

Week 3:

Iron Chef (S2) vs. Triple Triad (FFVIII)- Iron Chef was a blast. Triple Triad was about as worthwhile as Rinoa plot.
Tetra Master (FFIX) vs. Morrie's MONSTROUS PIT (DQ8)
Fishing (BoF4) vs. Blitzball (FFX)- Fishing for champ of this half.
HaKox (XS3) vs. Super Jude Bros. (WA4)- Burn in hellfire, XS3.

Has Morrie.
Fishing (BoF4) vs. Blitzball (FFX)
I have no sense of rhythm. Thus, I suck at BoF4 fishing.

HaKox (XS3) vs. Super Jude Bros. (WA4) - Both of these aren't very fun, but... I'll get back to you.

Week 3:

Iron Chef (S2) vs. Triple Triad (FFVIII): Don't care. Both fail.
Tetra Master (FFIX) vs. Morrie's MONSTROUS PIT (DQ8): Hilarity.
Fishing (BoF4) vs. Blitzball (FFX): Huge timesink vs. argh.
HaKox (XS3) vs. Super Jude Bros. (WA4): DIE, HAKOX. Well I guess I'd have voted SJB here anyway, it is pretty much better than everything.

Failure bracket:

CPR (FFVII) vs. ARM WRESTLING (G2): Don't remember Arm Wrestling.
Stupid Judgement Ring Shit (SH) vs. Sidejumping (LoL2): Still beats some things in Winners.

Week 3:

Iron Chef (S2) vs. Triple Triad (FFVIII) - Haha.. oh boy, cooking minigames.
Tetra Master (FFIX) vs. Morrie's MONSTROUS PIT (DQ8)- Not Tetra Master.
Fishing (BoF4) vs. Blitzball (FFX)- Blitzball gets too easy too fast.
HaKox (XS3) vs. Super Jude Bros. (WA4)- Hahahaahahaahaahaha.

Failure bracket:

CPR (FFVII) vs. ARM WRESTLING (G2)- CPR isn't THAT bad. ARM WRESTLING kind of is.

Week 3:

Iron Chef (S2) vs. Triple Triad (FFVIII)
Just fun and stylish, though this is the toughest decision thus far.

Tetra Master (FFIX) vs. Morrie's MONSTROUS PIT (DQ8)
See above, remove part about tough decision.

Fishing (BoF4) vs. Blitzball (FFX)
Eh, I just kinda like Blitzball.

Crazy Motorcycle Chase
Only the best minigame ever made, nothing comes close.


Failure bracket:

CPR (FFVII) vs. ARM WRESTLING (G2)
It lets you lose so you can just give up and move on with your life.

Stupid Judgement Ring Shit (SH) vs. Sidejumping (LoL2) - No Vote

Fishing (BoF4) vs. Blitzball (FFX) - Fishing was boring, but it was more enjoyable than freaking Blitzball. Ah well, at least if Blitzball pulls off another robbery, it will burn to Super Jude Bros. next round.
HaKox (XS3) vs. Super Jude Bros. (WA4)

CPR (FFVII) vs. ARM WRESTLING (G2)

Failure bracket:

CPR (FFVII) vs. ARM WRESTLING (G2)- You can lose at this and still move on (Aka, you can watch the screen for 15 seconds)

Iron Chef (S2) vs. Triple Triad (FFVIII): I actually had a lot of fun with Triple Triad, at least until I got enough of the face cards to mercilessly crush all opponents.
Tetra Master (FFIX) vs. Morrie's MONSTROUS PIT (DQ8)
Fishing (BoF4) vs. Blitzball (FFX)

HaKox (XS3) vs. Super Jude Bros. (WA4): I actually found HaKox fun, but this isn't close.

Failure bracket:

CPR (FFVII) vs. ARM WRESTLING (G2): CPR epitomizes bad design.
Stupid Judgement Ring Shit (SH) vs. Sidejumping (LoL2): Pointless but optional versus totally unnecessary.

Twenty-four hour warning. Get those votes in now or not at all. (Actually, no: just get them in now).

Iron Chef (S2) vs. Triple Triad (FFVIII) - Doesn't give you only one chance to get it right, among other things.
