For anyone that is unaware, Gamespy has been having an Ultimate Title Fight competition going on for well over a month now, and we are down to the final six right now. Zelda: Ocarina of Time is about to lose, tisk tisk. So anyone who loves this game needs to go over to gamespy and vote, it's down by nearly 2,000 votes, and that's not acceptable, so please go and vote!
Polls end at 12 PST mind you, so time is limited.

It categorizes Ocarina of Time as a "fantasy RPG"? Well, as much as I loved Diablo and Diablo II, I can't not vote for The Legend of Zelda. It is the height of gaming godliness.

EDIT: Okay, having voted and seen the present results, I am ticked off to see Diablo II beating out Ocarina of Time. :realmad

I voted. You give 3 points for your vote.


Then tried to vote again but it looks like it gives points to both games by doing so.

I voted OoT but there's really no point in voting anymore since it's not going to catch up now.

The Gamespy Character Fight polls were ruined by the fact that you can vote as many times as you want. I'm sure there are a bunch of fanboys just sitting there for hours and voting multiple times for their favorite game.

"Poll closed! Results not official pending an investigation"

It's obvious people were cheating & voting multiple times, all the other polls came nowhere near 32,0900 votes (the last one was 13,937 votes).

The Halo fanboys are doing the same thing right now I'm sure... Halo is murdering Half-Life right now in the new poll (13,331 votes to 3,898 votes).

Well it was detirmed that both the Zelda and Halo match ups were rigged and are being re-run, with a more secure system. You can vote here (http://archive.gamespy.com/titlefight/matches/0403.shtml)

both zelda and diablo suck and neither of them are even rpgs.
diablo+ click, swing, click, swing, click, swing. w00t, lets go to the next floor click, swing, click, swing, w00t.

and zelda... well zelda`s simply bad except for the old gameboy games back before pokemon and it was hard to find a game that lasted more than one sitting.

but diablo2, i havent played so i wont insult it.

I hope that shadowrunner is joking. I really do. There is no way anybody can seriously say that The Legend of Zelda is bad or that Diablo isn't an RPG. While Diablo may not be like other more traditional RPG's, you still have similar medieval characters like those found in most other RPG's and you still character build much like in other RPG's, though not with nearly as many specific stats as a lot of RPG's like Final Fantasy titles tend to have. As for the quality and greatness of The Legend of Zelda, somebody has to be wasted to even consider the possibility that it sucks. Sure, we don't all have the same taste in games, but I don't declare a game sucks just because it doesn't appeal to me, as I know there are many good games that are still good in spite of them not appealing to me. TLoZ appeals to literally tens of millions of gamers that love the series and even those that don't pesonally like the games would generally at least confess to them still being great games.

EDIT: I just realized that this battle is between Ocarina of Time and Diablo II, neither of which are GCN titles. The Diablo II part of this fits more into General Consoles, but OoT fits into Classic Gaming. Then again, this is more about a poll than about either title. Either way, this should be moved, so I guess I'll send it to Classic Gaming, for OoT. I think where it belongs is sort of a toss-up between the three, but it needs to go to one of them.
