Please bookmark and folow through the title fight! The following link will have Civ3's match-up when it has started.

Gamespy.com: Title fight

[Round one 26/2: Civ3 3381 FFT 2302]

Update 11/3/04: Civ3 is up against Sim City 2000 TODAY!

(Voting for Metal Gear while you are there might help us...)

Region Final: Tuesday week - March 23. (Probably versus a PS2 game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.)

This is a simple popularity contest. The best game will not win, but let's show them why we've been playing Civ solidly for a good 10 odd years! We have thousands of members here, and we only need to increase our vote by approx. 600 to get up to a similar vote to that which GTA: Vice City had in Round one. We will at least be rulers of our domain!

I would never suggest scewing results,

but go round to all the different IP addresses you can, remove cookies and vote again!

w00t! 2250 to 1733. We make FF be our *****es!

Aqualung71 · February 27, 2004, 05:05

SimCity's next - that should be a piece of p**s

Dis · February 27, 2004, 05:11

I don't understand what this is.

But I see Civ3 up against some game I have never heard of. So the choice was obvious. Yep, you guessed it, I voted for the game I never heard of

And so you should. You are, after all, a Dissident

No, he is a troll who failed at birth. That would make him still-trolled.

SIR, YES SIR!

Anyway, I predict the final Civ3 vs. Splinter Cell.

Long Live Civ III

Civ III 2332 votes

Final Fantasy fanatics 1773 votes

MrWhereItsAt · February 27, 2004, 07:04

Civ III 2387 vs FF 1787

A 3:1 new vote increase for Civ III! Keep 'm coming...

Harovan · February 27, 2004, 08:57

Wow, Civ3 is having a tough time against a four years older console game, who would've thought that?

I never heard anything about the other game. Abstain.

Capt Dizle · February 27, 2004, 09:33

I bet you can guess which way I voted.

Shogun Gunner · February 27, 2004, 10:08

Now Civ3 is up against Final Fantasy Tactics. Current score:

Civilization III 2656
FF Tactics 1926

vmxa1 · February 27, 2004, 13:43

3091 vs 2153

DiabloII vs Knights? Not kosher. A new game versus a older game.

Tough call the Red Alert battle.

asleepathewheel · February 27, 2004, 15:25

How can you even compare the two games?

embarrasing admission: I have Final Fantasy Tactics but have never played it.

the tough match for me is FFVII v ChronoTrigger. ???? Don't know how to vote there.

The console game of course, because you're serious about it, whereas I'm only trolling.

CIV3 WON!

http://www.gamespy.com/titlefight/brackets.shtml

but the bad news (for me) is that its going against SimCity 2000!

(2 game that I both love to death!)

LzPrst · February 27, 2004, 19:01

Why did you vote for civ3? It's as much an annoyance as it is a joy. singleplayer gets boring real fast and MP hardly ever works

lots of stuff is just plain unreasonable.
still, we love it. kinda like mothers... they keep nagging about all the potential unused, everything that could be, but they love u regardless.
i'm beginning to get old...

vmxa1 · February 27, 2004, 19:28

Well SimCity 2000 is not selling any units now a days is it? Does it have an active fan site?

Dis · February 28, 2004, 04:08

because civ3 is a great game, that's why we voted for it. No one has even heard of FF: tactics.

It might fail against sim city 2000. But I have never played it, so I would vote Civ3 again.

Are you really so stupid as to not be able to keep track of which insipid things you have said in which threads?

Peter Triggs · February 28, 2004, 15:30

CIV3 got 3,381 votes. But have you checked out the opposition:

Quote:

DOOM 10,268 (86%)

Granted it was up against a 1994 Mac game, but that doesn't bode well for the future.

asleepathewheel · February 28, 2004, 15:45

civ3 won't get that far.

next round, assuming it takes SC2k, its up against either GTA-VC or Metal Gear Solid. Tough draw.

vmxa1 · February 28, 2004, 16:03

Yeah those games will have most of their players on the net. I am not so sure about civ3 crowd.

It's the same thread. I don't see why you have to call me stupid.

I don't see any contradiction. The smilie should be an indication of what I meant.

I'll stop posting in this thread if that will make you happy. I'll even stop posting in civ3-general. I didn't realize there was such bigotry here.

MrWhereItsAt · February 29, 2004, 05:59

Next matchup: SimCity 2000 vs Civ III is on March 11th. Get ready to vote and vote often.

It matters not to me if anyone post or leaves, but the fact that someone took umbridge with ones post has nothing to do with bigotry.

Warning: totally biased and unsubstantiated comment to follow, all liability excluded and responsibility denied

While quite likely to be true, I like to think it's because Civ3 requires intelligence and subtle strategy rather than just "stick 'em up, bang bang" type of play.

That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it, even in the face of evidence to the contrary that anyone may care to provide

MrWhereItsAt · March 2, 2004, 07:42

Plus those who play civ are a little less likely to be trawling the Net voting on polls and a bit more likely to be setting policy, doing world-class research and creating new enterprises.

Oh, and actually PLAYING Civ in their freetime.

Alex · March 2, 2004, 10:26

well, civ3 may win against simcity2000, but it will eventually fall when it is matched up against more popular games.

and why exactly civ3? i mean, they had a sort of 'qualifying' round only with sid's games, and civ3 won, i'm aware of this, but i thought that civ2 would fare better than it did.
