Topic: NFRIT Eager 8: Okami (2) v Beyond Good and Evil (4)

[Shaymin]

One has the highest overall scores left in the tournament. One just upset the tournament's overall #1 seed. Can the brave family overcome the power of a god?

Okami: The last game from Capcom's legendary Clover Studios before Platinum rose from its ashes, Okami's 2008 Wii re-release brought the beautiful art style and tremendous adventure gameplay to the Wii, while adding in controls well suited to the Wii Remote's capabilities. And an IGN watermark, but we don't talk about that.

Previous Matchups: Beat Mother 3 (R1), Picross 3D (S16)

Beyond Good and Evil: Overshadowed in its own year of release by Wind Waker and later by its own publisher's Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, Beyond Good and Evil is often considered Michel Ansel's seminal work. The story may be familiar, as a battle of hope and rebellion against tyranny, but the game's beauty makes it a must play on any platform.

Previous Matchups: Beat Professor Layton and the Last Specter (R1), Viewtiful Joe (S16)

Did I miss one over the weekend? I left town Thursday and just got back yesterday. I think I made it back just in time for this round.


This vote will be painful.

[Khushrenada]

Such a hard vote? Should I go with the game that got 4 votes or the game that got 6 votes? I'm going 6 to keep my almost perfect streak alive.

[Khushrenada]

Whew! Beyond good and evil pulled it out. I was worried the mods might have changed the names on me. Can't believe no one else has figured out this brilliant and totally legit way to up post count. It's all about the stats!

[Stratos]

Are you saying I need to resurrect my NWR stat thread? I haven't done an update in years...

[Khushrenada]

Nah, don't do it until I'm number one in every stat. *strokes my white cat* One day, I will rule this site.

[Mop it up]

I knew that was your goal all along, but no one ever listens to me!

[Khushrenada]

The problem is I'm not too focused on accomplishing it so it keeps people from believing that is my goal. My subtlety is very subtle.

I also see through the ways that you cover yourself, such as by playing Mafia. Everyone thinks it's a just a game, but I know that you really do intend to kill us all.

[Stratos]

Oh yeah, Mafia! Forgot all about that...

[Khushrenada]

I also see through the ways that you cover yourself, such as by playing Mafia. Everyone thinks it's a just a game, but I know that you really do intend to kill us all.

And from the "disappearance" of so many players from the first 30 or so games, I'm clearly winning.
