It seems that L-Block from Tetris is winning the character battle they keep having at GameFAQs (http://www.gamefaqs.com/), the one where Cloud or Link win each time. I don't really care for GameFAQs or their stupid polls, but seeing L-Block ahead was really nice.... (even though it's probably a joke by some lame community like somethingawful or 4chan or whatever)
I know this is probably a bad topic but..... come on, it's L-Block! I doubt anyone actually thought it'd go that far, and this would probably upset all those people who participate in the voting scores contest or whatever, as they all probably have Link or Cloud as the winner. Take that fanboys! (and we all know people who vote for any of the big characters probably do it for the game, not the character. Cloud is one of the worst character in FF7, for example)
L-Block for president! :D
-
oh god
please win L-block
-
oh shit
L-block needs to win.

More Importantly..when is your game coming out??!! :(
-
I prefered the squished T-blockish thing.
Hooray for the L-word!
-
4chan couldn't even get Mudkips to last, how could they possibly pull off a stunt like this.
The results are probably rigged, which is good because every year since I remember the same dumb kids keep voting on Link, Cloud, or Sephiroth.
-
They should at the least retire the previous champions so we don't see the 'epic battle' between Link and Cloud, or at the very least, not put in about 10 VII characters.
I don't much care for L-block either.
-
Okay
-
I always favored the I block myself, but it's not in the competition so you go for the next best thing.
It's just pretty stupid how you always have the same winner. If you want to have a laugh or two go on some Zelda or Final Fatasy boards on GameFAQs and see the fanboys complaining how L-Block is not a character or how the joke has gone too far!

Man, that was always my favourite block too. It was just so... universally useful.
GameFAQs character battles are a joke though, because as already stated, the same cliche characters win every time. If that shit was held at GW, the members here would probably be smart enough not to vote for the characters who are "cool" on the outside but are actually pretty dull and lame.
Go L-Block. :fogetcool:
-
Yeah, I don't like gamefaqs battles either. Like, how can Marcus Fenix beat Kefka? Come on......
-
I'm personally a fan of the l block. It was so... wanted (except for in the beginning when you're like YEAH I REALLY NEED THAT RIGHT NOW FAFGGOT)

Yea that happens to me all the time :[
Anyway this is a pretty horrible topic but I think I will abstain from locking it from now because we can use this as an opportunity to discuss blatant fanboyism (eg Link vs Cloud) outweighing like actual GOOD characters. (seriously Link is probably the worst example of this, he was made to not have depth)
-
this is actually a good topic because i didnt know about this and now i feel good for voting for l block and hoping that clink won't win for once!
-
L-Block is winning because several GF boards (a lot of the hidden ones mostly) decided to get a character not Link/Cloud/Sephiroth to win. And they chose L-Block.
One of the character battle pictures had J-Block though. *shakes fist*
-
tetris tiers:
god tier - T Block
top tier - L/J blocks
mid tier - I block
bottom tier - Z/S/O blocks
why are you so serious raz???
-
i think L-Block won, therefore ruining everyones brackets (who the hell actually fills one out eitherways?)

A lot of people cause theres like a 400$ gift card prize etc.
And yeah, L-Block won. (well...not yet but he will)
I had him winning though so...
-
Even Link falls to L-Block.
This is pretty epic...I'm glad the winner isn't going to be Cloud, Sephiroth, Link, or Mario.
-
rofl
Since L-Block won they made a joke poll
L-Block (Tetris)
Paddle (Pong)
Weighted Companion Cube (Portal)
?-BLock (Mario)
i voted for L-Block
-
weighted companion cube is definitely the true winner.
-
After seeing Kefka, Akuma and others lose to characters that they'd most likely own, I'm on the L block team too. Hell, ANY character that isn't in Final Fantasy 7-12 or isn't a Nintendo character(no offense) winning would be a nice change of pace.
-
(seriously Link is probably the worst example of this, he was made to not have depth)
That's just why I like Link. He has no depth or emotions. All he does is kill stuff with bombs and swords and solve the occasional puzzle. He is such a badass even if he looks like a girl.
I still voted for L-block though.
-
I love how they put Cloud, Sephiroth, Link, and Solid Snake each in different brackets to begin with. If they had put all four in the same bracket in the first place, it would have been pretty awesome!
But yeah I thought that character battle was a completely awesome idea when I first saw it -- until I realized that FFVII and Zelda fanboys make it a point to turn it from a funny novelty into some handjobbing SONY VERSUS NINTENDO popularity contest.
-
Companion cube > L-block
-
? block!
Nothing like a good fire flower or invincibility star.
-
that weighted companion cube didn't just take a bullet from me, but hundreds.
I've never been mad at seeing a weighted companion cube.
However, the L-block has pissed me off at quite a few points.
-
I cried a bit when L-Block won... What is happening to our world?
-
L Block will smite it's foes with bright colours and quad-rotatative abilities.
-
? Block is a classic. How can you not love it. :P
-
First, the Aperture Science Weighted Companion Cube kicks the shit out of the L Block.
Second, Snake should've won.
Thrid, Who won the bonus round?

Square is the new round.

So L-Block won the whole competition. The block nation is in celebration.
