There really wasn't any doubt that FFVII would get #1...

The only real surprise here is the fanboyism didn't catapault FFXI into the stratosphere, taking the numeric system and destroying it, reforging it in the dark fires of obsession and creating a new, SUPER number that could, just maybe, reflect on the true psychotics that swear by the game as video gaming bible.

There don't seem to be any MMOs on there...

Keep in mind, that list is the GAMEFAQS top 100. Therefore, certain styles of games won't be on there much. For example, MMOs and FPSes tend to have their own dedicated websites, and have very little presence on sites like GameFAQs.

WoW is 10th on their list of top FAQs, so I'm thinking that they just left out MMOs...

edit: Nevermind, that list means nothing, doesn't it... bah, I'm so far off today.... >.<

Upon closer inspection, it appears that WoW is #39 on the list. Probably downgraded for being a relative newcomer.

What an evil conversation for the page. :P

It probably has something to do with the number of hits the faqs have had over the years. Or at least it would be a factor.

And Knight has made most of the other comments I would have botherd to chime in.

this is an evil page.

check the page number.

that said, I think that paying any attention to what the people on gamefaqs thinks is a bad idea.

for one thing, their forums are kooky in that in order to be allowed to post anywhere that you might want to, you need to make a post somewhere crappy that noone ever looks and have enough current members click a little button on your post.

or at least, that's how it was for a while. not sure about now

I used to be pretty active over there; Not so much now, but I still post there from time to time. I'm pretty high up as far as user level goes (Icon), so it's been quite awhile since I was new (circa 2002). But I don't remember having to do anything wierd like that, Newb...

BAH, lame people stay lame. No matter how many reasonable points you throw at them, they stick with their bland games and their worn-out concepts.

I tried to join up a while back, and I wasn't allowed to post anywhere except places where noone posted.

that was the most common explaination given to me when I asked around.

No Megaman. Correct.

And... um... not having played FFX, I can't tell ya, but maybe the "all-new" strategic aspect of the Third Age combat system was how different actions determined when your character would appear next in the line-up?

No, that's in X as well. Every last aspect of the combat system in Third Age, right down to which button switches your party member, is directly ripped from Final Fantasy X.

Wow ripping off the worst battle sytem Final Fantasy did. That is sad on many levels.

Also on the Fanboyism with GameFaqs, I always hated the Anti-fanboys more than the fanboys and felt they were a much worse problem. Considering most haven't even played an RPG and swear that Madden 20XX is the greatest game ever, and yes I had an arugment once about why sports games weren't on any top lists.

Those are just a different kind of fanboys.

I liked the FFX battle system alot. It was nice to see very clearly what effects haste and slow had.

I like turn-based battles...
