MY RPG Oscars

my own oscars to RPG video games (PC and Console):

Some games listed people may not think of RPGs, but I am listing them because I feel they have enough of a plot and RPG elements to qualify.


__________________________________________
Best supporting character (NPC/Minor): Richmond (Suikoden 2), Ellone (FF8), Zelda (Zelda games), Maria (Castlvania: SOTN), T.G. Cid (FFT)

and the winner is...... Thunder God Cid form Final Fantasy Tactics, AKA Orlandu.

__________________________________________
Best villain in a supporting role: Ultros (FF6), Seymor (FFX (can't spell), Harle(Chrono Cross) and Elle [Trranigma (Don't ask, spoiler)]

and the winner is..... Ultros from Final Fantasy VI

__________________________________________
Best character in a lead role: Alucard (Castlevania: SOTN), Cecil (FFIV), Fei (Xenogears), Chrono (Chrono Trigger) and (BoF series)

and the winner is..... Cecil from Final Fantasy IV

__________________________________________
Best villain in a lead role: Sephiroth (FF7), Kefka (FF6), Irenicus (Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn), Lynx (Chrono Cross), and Sin[(FFX) would say more, but major spoiler about what sin is].

and the winner is..... Kefka from Final Fantasy VI

Kefka's acceptance speech:

Ohh, Im so happy. HAHAHA. I would like to thank all citizens of Castle Doma for dieing from poison for me. Id like to thank the emperor for actually truting me, so I could kill him. BUt most importantly I thanks myself, for no one can be as psychotic as me.

I reckon you should have had a poll for it, man. Two awards to a thread, coz I think that Chrono was a better lead, and I would be a bit iffy on the Kefka/ Irenicus debate as Irenicus seemed more of a force of unstoppable Evil, and he stole your soul.

I think the are two other persons that should be nominated as the best villain (supporting or lead role). They are Lord Yuna and Yohm from Breath of Fire 4. Seing what they've done to Mami and Elina made me really furious. I don't know why, but I can't accept the fact that they use human as sacrifice to launch Carronade. Watching the sacrificial place really made me wanna punch the screen to release my anger. And poor Elina.

yeah, but in a poll here Kefka would prolly win, just cuz more people play the console RPGs than the PC ones. I just would hope Kefka would beat Sephiroth, cuz he was the better villain.

i wouldnt have voted for kefka as best villain, and from polls ive seen which kefka was in he never won... you see, the thing is, kefka isnt evil, he's just a stupid dumb cross-dressing fa**ot, i would have voted for lynx most likely in that category.

Kefka's mad evil, and he kills more people on-screen than most video game villains actually... He kills all of Doma, Leo, the Emperor, all the espers - and that's all on-screen! If the graphics were better it would look much more evil (probably). Oh yeah, plus he singlehandedly nukes most of the world, fries villages that displeases him, etc.

Anyway, um, oh yeah... A couple more categories...

Best female in a leading role:
Marle (Chrono Trigger), Kid (Chrono Cross), Terra (FF VI), Elly (Xenogears), Rinoa (FF VIII)
And the winner is... Elly!!

Best cinematography:
Final Fantasy VIII, Final Fantasy X, Xenogears, Chrono Cross, Summoner (PC)
And the winner is... Xenogears!!

Best special effects (on this forum perhaps should be called the FB award):
BOF IV, Chrono Cross, FF VII, FF VII, Xenogears
And the winner is... Chrono Cross!!

kefka is a little wussy throughout most of the game, he runs away from you time and time again... if i could consider him anything it would be a whining dirt bag...

> Best female in a leading role:

no way, its kid...

> Best cinematography:

again its crono cross... xenogears has so-so cinematics... and the voice dubbing is horrible, but have you ever seen the quality of the chrono cross movies and the detail on the cg work?

> Best special effects (on this forum perhaps should be called the FB award):

id agree with chrono cross but thats cause of the immensive 3d graphics and backgrounds

i just noticed i voted for chrono cross in all the catergories... i do like chrono cross but not that much... its just that the 3 categories u chose are the best things in cc

Again, would definitely give this one to FFX, just for Anima's overdrive.

When I said cinematography I meant like how they frame the shots in the game mainly, not really the cinematic qualities of the actual movie playback. I just think Xenogears as a game was presented really beautifully and artistically. I do agree though, for the movies, I wouldn't rate it too high... The anime cuts are few and far-between and yah the voice dubbing is absolutely horrible.

Final Fantasy VIII(PSX)

Legend of Dragoon(PSX)

And the Winner is:

(Please note that this award is for quality of the FMV, not the plot/etc.. thus entwined)
