LoZ SS WINS G4TV Video Game Deathmatch 2011, G4 Cries

[PatrickTheHuman]

LoZ needs help, it's going neck-to-neck against Batman, and if LoZ wins, it'll face Skyrim, and then it will REALLY need help! Come on Nintendo community let's win one for the Wii and show those HD fanboys at G4 what the Wii can really do!

MOD EDIT
So Zelda won. How did G4 respond? Like the children they are, of course!

I already voted.

[Koopzilla]

I just voted, LoZ: SS is in the lead. I kind of felt like I was signing my soul over to Satan signing up for a G4 account though.

[PatrickTheHuman]

It's starting to dip in the polls.. Come on GN community!

[the_nintendo_screw]

I voted too!

@Koopzilla: That's how I felt too.

[Koopzilla]

I voted as well.

Though the haters whos game lost to Zelda will vote for Zelda's new opponent in hopes that Zelda loses. Ya know it. -_-

Not only that, but it is G4 so I'm sure all the G4 fans who have been brainwashed into hating all things Nintendo (kiddy non HD crap) are going to vote against it anyway. So, I'd say it is automatically at a big disadvantage. I'm actually surprised it's doing as well as it is.

I agree, its actually surprising indeed. -_- Sadly these haters are gonna always hate but this time in numbers towards bringing down Zelda unfairly.

At the end of the day I still can't see Zelda winning especially if it goes against Skyrim.

Skyrim Fans + haters + G4 fans = Zelda Loss

[Steel Diver]

I created an account to vote for this even but ended up only voting for Skyward Sword not because I'm not trolling but did it because the G4TV site is slow and terribly designed and I don't like being on it for voting for anything else.

It's not really at that big of a disadvantage there, considering the number of Nintendo fans out there (and, apparently, even on G4... that comment section? hilarious) who hate plenty of things non-Nintendo and use a persecution complex to justify it

really, the fact of the matter is that the gaming community largely consists of unreasonably hateful manchildren no matter which of the four camps you visit, though I'll give Nintendo fans credit for upholding a level of civility that tends to be higher - even if sometimes only slightly - than with other console allegiances

[Koopason]

Every time I hear of Video Game Deathmatches, I'm reminded of when Valve preety much bribed people to vote for Half-Life 2.

None the less, I hope Skyward Sword wins.

[PatrickTheHuman]

Oh god, we're up against Skyrim. This will be closer than Batman.

[the_nintendo_screw]

So far Skyrim 49% votes and Zelda 51% votes. Keep voting

[motherbra1n]

I really REALLY hope zelda wins this. G4 are just so desperate for it to lose, look at the descriptions they've given for the two games, it's trying to make it seem as if skyward sword is just another rehash and then they put the full skyrim review up whilst only putting one of skyward swords mediocre trailers.

oh and i just realised the title:
In this battle of swords and styles, the light-as-air Zelda takes on serious-as-Game of Thrones RPG Skyrim. Which do you prefer, reader? Make your voice heard by voting!

LOL

[Steel Diver]

The first comment on the Zelda/Skyrim page is this:

"zelda is for kidsssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssss"

and this

"Skyrim is wa betar than skywerd sward becase it haz betar grafics"

All I can say is wow

[KingBroly]

Someone should post this:

Zelda has a high magical resistance to bugs, Skyrim doesn't.

[Darth Vader]

Reading those comments is entertaining as hell. Idiots. All of them. Because only an idiot could

think that Twilight Princess was beautiful, yet call Skyrim 'a game that would look bad on Gamecube'
think that a game can only look good if it's got an insane draw distance and ambient effects
act like motion controls took anything away from Skyward Sword
act like either game doesn't boast any merits in regards to story or world design
call either game a 'cancer' on the industry

anywhos, I'd vote, but I didn't ask for this

wait wrong meme, I'm thinking of the one from that game that truly deserves GOTY recognition

my bias is augmented. How'd Deus Ex lose to Gears of War 3?

Hahaha, oh yeah right. G4TV. It's got leik guns and multiplayer and curse words and brown and stuff

[cortjezter]

i'm just curious:

why is this even important... to anyone?

[KingBroly]

It's G4, obviously. Nintendo fans hate G4 because they inherently hate Nintendo. Therefore, Nintendo fans want G4 to be shamed by having a contest that shows a Nintendo game winning.

[motherbra1n]

this is so intense they keep jumping between 49 and 51. Usually I wouldn't care this much, I'd simply place my vote an just come back to see the result when its over and not really care about it cos it's literally just a popularity contest.

But this is G4, the most anti nintendo website you can ever find. They so clearly want skyrim to win, they put a misleading description for skyward sword that makes it seem as though it[s just another rehash (princess zelda? seriously?) whilst bigging skyrim up in every way and putting a 5 minute long review of skyrim that tells everyone how great it is and talks about it as if the games is completely flawless (neither game is in my opinion) whilst only putting a mediocre trailer for skyward sword. you call that fair?

I can just Morgan Webb bursting into rage if skyward sword wins and start badmouthing everything about nintendo in every way in one of their podcasts/videos, and that would simply make my day .

[cortjezter]

lol.. i still don't care why people even care. it's a poll on one site; a site whose opinions matter less and less. and it's a poll of zero scientific or even valid data, making the results completely irrelevant or useful for any purpose whatsoever.

seems more like a pissing contest, except everyone is standing upside down.

[Koopzilla]

HOLY CRAP, it beat Skyrim amazing considering it's G4. This must be why they left Skyward Sword off their best game of the year nomination.

your schwang is still a similar distance from the ground either way

anyways, i mostly want SS to win because it would be funny. I dont really think most people actually care or would be bothered in any way if SS lost

That just sounds messy.

If anyone is interested, Skyward Sword won against Skyrim. Now there is another vote, Skyward Sword vs. Assassin's Creed. Vote here. http://www.g4tv.com/vgdm/best-game-2011/battleresult/210/AssassinsCreedRevelations%20vs%20ZeldaSkywardSword/1B73ED21FDC74627AD4B7BDB3DBFBA63/

[bimmatic]

While, sure, there are games SS should beat out, I don't feel it is goty material. So I will not be voting for it.

What game do you think is goty material then? I'm not saying your opinion is wrong, I'm just curious to what your opinion is.
