As many of you know, G4 is hosting their annual VideoGame Deathmatch in which the top games of the year are put head to head in a vote by fans to see which title truly deserves to be crowned the best of 2011. The competition has reached round four, and our favorite game of the year needs help! Skyrim, Bethesda’s amazing fifth installment in The Elder Scrolls series, is going up against Skyward Sword, a popular Zelda game, considered decent in the eyes of its fans, apparently. As Skyrim fans, we know that our content-packed monster of an RPG tromps whatever an insignificant action-adventure game could contain, but the Zelda fanbase is large. As of right now, Skyward Sword holds 51% of the vote, while Skyrim is slightly behind at 49%, but it’s not too late! In the name of Odahviing, the great backwards-flying dragon of Skyrim, I urge you: go to g4tv.com, and don’t vote for Skyward Sword–don’t help the Zelda series once again become known as the greatest franchise of all-time, and don’t put all of those Nintendo naysayers in their place. Basically, vote for Skyrim or the Dark Brotherhood will hear about it. Just sayin’.
Edit: Since there seems to be some confusion over this matter, no we are not in fact a Skyrim fan site and yes we have heard of Skyward Sword before and the game that we would prefer you to vote for is indeed Skyward Sword. Head over and vote, it’s close and there’s less than a day remaining.
Tingle’s Rosy Rupeeland was released only in Japan and Europe, never making it to the USA due to lackluster sales. Surprisingly, the game was well-received among those who did play and review the game. You play as Tingle, a 35-year-old (and single) man lost in the world. Guided by the mysterious figure Uncle Rupee, Tingle fills a mystical spring with money and gain access to the wonderful Rupeeland, a paradise where nobody has to work. Along the way, hire body guards to protect Tingle – but from what? All may not be as it seems in Tingle’s quest for monetary gain, and Rupeeland just might not be so rosy after all...
WT hell? why are non-zelda fans here? shoo go away. Where the [french toast] is the damn zelda love?
Oh, so only Skyrim fanboys can vote for Skyrim, and Zelda fans such as myself cannot vote for Skyrim?
How utterly fanboyish. Good day to you sir!
Here I am thinking I can like more than one gaming franchise, how silly of me!
I blame this article for the lead Skyrim has now.
Why, good sir Crobat, are you rooting for Skyrim on a Zelda site? It’s basically being racist in an African-American’s house.
As I do like Skyrim, (but Zelda more,) I do not hate your game, but why do you want to do something as stupid as what your doing? It’s like an Allied spy in a Nazi bunker saying ‘Allied guys gonna get you losers!’
Seriously. Think about it.
Bye.
I didn't get the memo that only Zelda fanboys can post here. COMMON SENSE dictates that if I like a game more than another, than I shall vote for that game. Just because I'm a Zelda fan doesn't mean I have to be a blind fanboy and vote for a Zelda game even if I preferred the other game over it. If you think being true to oneself is racism, then that's your problem.
WTF IS THIS ON A ZELDA SITE?!?!
Skyward Sword is the best game ever. And I shall list the reasons:
1. Best graphics ever!
2. Most fun game ever!
3. Motion controls!
4. Zelda is a fox! I'd tap that.
Anyone who doesn't vote SS BEST GAME OF FOREVER is a moron who shouldn't be allowed to play video games in the first place. To all of you who want SS to win over Skyrim, MAKE A BUNCH OF NEW ACCOUNTS and keep voting! Tell only Zelda fans of the poll. Never mention it to potential Skyrim fans. And last but not least, we need to tar and feather these Zelda fans who voted for Skyrim. I mean…really? Why the hell would they do that? They aren't true Zelda fans! We must cast them out until they confess that Zelda was, is, and will ALWAYS be the best! Who wants new experiences? I sure don't! I'm sticking to my older Zelda traditions.
Who's with me?!
"1. Best graphics ever!"
Haha no. Pretty, but not the best.
Go vote for Zelda in the G4TV Deathmatch! Zelda is losing to Skyrim (Skyrim 52%, Zelda 48%). Vote here! http://www.g4tv.com/vgdm/best-game-2011/vote/209/…
You got to be kidding me gtf out of here every single one of you Zelda haters I think Skyrim is awesome but Zelda deserves to be in the top no questions about it any one who says SS should loos is a complete dumbass!
Only a Sith deals in absolute. Just because I prefer Skyrim doesn't mean I hate Zelda. Quit being such a snotty fanboy!
This is a bad joke. Really, really bad.
I have lost all faith in ZU. I thought this was a Zelda site that would defend the fact that Zelda SS is superior. But theyre just a bunch of ignoramuses. Wow this really was a low blow.. I thought I could trust this site and that their judgement was fair. But no, theyre no better than G4. Completely full of shit. Sell outs.
Discredit this I take it back. Only read a small portion and didnt realize it was sarcasm guess all the hype over the war between SS and Skyrim got to my head. I'm sorry ZU XD
If you respond that intensely over something as trivial as other people's opinions on video-games, you need to seek help.
who would vote 4 skyward sword, look at dem graficks, litle kidz graficks, and on teh wii! wii is 4 grandmas and babys. I not little kid im a mature gamer! I play COD! im too kool to vote 4 kidz game, so me vote 4 skyrim skyrim FTW! just look at teh graficks 4 skyrim they are REALISTIK!! wich means its better in every way! OMG!!
Okay…some of you don't know sarcasm when you see it. THEY WANT US TO VOTE FOR SS AND PROVE TO THE WORLD THAT ZELDA IS STILL THE BEST GAME FRANCHISE *STILL* TO DATE WITH THE BIGGEST LOYAL FANS EVER! Love BOTH games but you know…Zelda all the way! XD
yeah but you have Skyrim fans coming over here since a skyrimfan had posted this on g4 site the moment it was put up here alot of skyrim fans came here to look at this….
sorry for that they should have made it a little more less hidden that "49% 51%" is what triggered it. even though it was funny…
Lol I did not read all of it.. this is a joke. I'm sorry ZU I guess I let the war thats going on get to my head. VIVA LA SKYWARD SWORD AND ZU!!!!!!!!!!!!
Repost this now, ppl are getting confused and zelda is loosing o.O
Played both, loved Skyward Sword, Skyrim was okay.
So I choose you Legend of Zelda! :3
Skyrim is going to win. And I'm going to laugh.
Oh, and someone is going around and sharing the link to this page. Prepare for more Skyrim fans to weigh in with their opinions!
Nice site, by the way.
Why is a Zelda fan site telling me not to vote for a Zelda game?
This is a Zelda Site not Skyrim anyone agree with me?
VOTE SKYWARD SWORD! HERE'S THE LINK! LET'S DO THIS!
http://www.g4tv.com/vgdm/best-game-2011/battleres…
I'm not hating on Skyrim…but…this is a Zelda site…. it just doesn't really make sense to me
it's pretty obvious that we lost this battle… but not the war
I've lost all respect for you Doctor You
Skyrim is better. Deal with it.
WHY THE HELL IS ZELDAUNIVERSE TELLING PEOPLE TO VOTE FOR SKYRIM? THIS IS RIGGED LIKE NO OTHER.
Indeed, Bethseda invited ZU staff for dinner, bought us liquor and strippers and gave us a free copy of Skyrim. All they asked is we promote their game on a g4 poll because that's really important to them.
They asked us not to tell anyone under the penalty of a hundred kicks to the groin but since I have no balls anyway I figured I might as well take the risk. Hope it pleases you
are you insane?????!!!!! why skyrim? ah, now i see you people can support the superiority of Legend of zelda uh? you can't accept that a game from a console like wii can beat games from HD consoles like PS3!!! well sorry for you but you can defeat zelda and its fans because we're unstopable!!!! God bless nintendo and TloZ!!!!!
u mad bro?
TAKE THIS POST OFF RIGHT NOW.
I don't understand why you posted on a Zelda fanbase to vote for skyrim after all the previous posts which had been exciting the Zelda fans on the most anticipated deathmatch between games we've been waiting for.
Were all the votes we cast to defeat the previous contestant simply to vote for Skyrim in the end?! I'm not saying that Skyrim is a bad game: It is most definitely a GREAT game.
But if we were going to vote for Skyrim, why bother getting us excited? If we were not going to support Zelda until the end, what was the point of voting? I feel very betrayed by ZU (Particularly you, who posted this), and I feel that this post should be taken off. It's a disgrace to the Zelda fanbase.
Just accept it. Skyrim is the better game.Renounce your kiddy ways before us once and for all and I promise we shall be merciful unto you.
WHAT IN THE FORLD JUST HAPPENED? Is this a Zelda website, or a f*cking TES website.
Some Skyrim fanboy registered here and made this f*cking abomination, i got this, THIS IS A COUP' THIS IS A F*CKING COUP'!!!!1
Come on Zelda fans, let's troll TES fansites!
Get off your rear end and vote for the best game series in the world!
Not to try to hurt your feewings, but you're all a pack of rabid guard dogs.
Also, the original post was sarcasm. Just a excited basement dweller trying to troll on 16+ year olds (Usually the Bethesda community base)
52%
and I guarantee it would be much higher if zeldatards didn't make a hundred accounts. Although G4 is biased for Skyrim too.
I know this is sarcastic/satirical… but you really should not have done that. Many people will see this and seriously think you are asking them to vote for Skyrim.
I'm in a zelda community so everyone here is voting zelda. I'm just trying to help them realize that Skyrim is an equal.
i think that this post should be deleted, this is called ZELDA Universe, not skyrim universe, and Skyward sword's graphics are amazing, just because they aren't realistic does not mean that they are bad. besides i have played both and Skyward Sword is MUCH better then skyrim.
Yeah, DoctorYou is trying to stir up lulz. Skyrim is better in the sense that you'll always find something new. If you have great patience you will be heavily rewarded. Skyward Sword is a blast. It just comes down to what you like the most.
Um…Either if this post is being sarcastic or is actually wanting us to vote for Skyrim, it's not working out so great.
ZU! Kick this guy off of your staff, he is a zelda hater! Also vote for Skyward Sword
Wow, this is just just a mess with all the sarcastic people, serious people, and trolls in an uproar over this, and on top of that, Skyrim is gaining the lead in the middle of this chaos.
Too many people don't recognize reverse psycology.
You're supposed to be so angry seeing this on a Zelda site that you want to vote for Skyward Sword.
Well said. I'm happy to see someone else who actually understands the reverse psychology in this post. The anger part seems to be working beautifully, just look at the comments.
Some indication that this is sarcasm would probably help out with the contest. This nearly gave me a heart attack.
Well the controls on Skyward Sword really sucked so its a down on ZSS.
Skyward sword is probably 1000000000000000000 times better than skyrim.skyrim is fun but no where near zelda.why would this even be on a zelda fansite?its not called the elder scrolls universe is it.
Wow, never seen this many people fight over games.
Well then what should we do to stop all of this fighting because I like all kinds of video games and not just Zelda or Skyrim.
I have better things to do than Zelda and Skyrim.
Oh! I'm sorry. I must've typed in the wrong web address… Wait a minute. No I didn't! I thought this was a zelda fan site! Why is it suddenly insulting the zelda franchise on purpose?! You have betrayed zelda and don't deserve to be called zeldauniverse.
both franchises are good , but i personally preferred skyrim (no hate just opinion)
?????
what is this blasphemy?!?!?!? D:
OMG!! ZU HAS BEEN BRAIN WASHED!!:O…Now that our leader is dead WE FIGHT TO SURVIVE!! SKYWARD SWORD GOTY 2011!!!
You guys really tricked until i read the of the post, i mean i was pissed of.
*carefully examines OP* Suddenly I'm no longer surprised and confused. =P
