Vice City beats KOTOR in an unusually extended poll

Vice City beat Knights of the Old Republic during an extended poll disrupted by site changes and downtime. The writeup says the win created serious second-round hype, while the unusual poll conditions made its true strength difficult to judge.

Melee survives Vice City as the division stays unsettled

Super Smash Bros. Melee pulled away from Vice City after an early deadlock and survived another difficult matchup. The writeup gives Vice City credit but says the weak turnout and Melee's repeated struggles left the division without an obvious favorite.

BGE 2K9 Round 1 2001-2003 Paper Mario's vote drain helps Vice City eliminate Prime 1

Kingdom Hearts took first comfortably, but Vice City overturned the expected Nintendo advantage and beat Metroid Prime for second. The writeup treats Paper Mario's presence as the key reason Prime could not capitalize.

LFF: The writeup says Paper Mario leeched enough Nintendo support from Metroid Prime to cost Prime the second advancing spot against Vice City.

BGE 2K9 Round 2 2001-2003 Kingdom Hearts shines while Final Fantasy X looks vulnerable

Final Fantasy X won a crowded all-PS2 field, while Kingdom Hearts comfortably beat Metal Gear Solid 2 for second. Kingdom Hearts' strong showing and FFX's modest margin made the winner look less secure than the placement suggested.

GOTD Round 1 Southwest Vice City delivers one of the contest's worst performances

Vice City performed so poorly that the writeup calls it one of the contest's biggest stinkers. The result is used as further evidence that Grand Theft Auto had become one of GameFAQs' most heavily disliked series.

GOTD Round 2 Southwest Resident Evil 4 bleeds away its title hype

Resident Evil 4 began with championship-level numbers against Vice City, then bled support for the entire match. The writeup treats the final result as a major warning that RE4's deeper title aspirations were unrealistic.

BGE 2K15 Round 1 Division III Final Fantasy VIII wins with a small rally-spillover boost 1

Final Fantasy VIII beat Vice City as expected, while the simultaneous Undertale rally nudged the result further toward Square. The writeup treats Vice City's respectable loss as one of the few less embarrassing GTA performances.

Rally: The writeup says Undertale rally spillover also affected this simultaneous poll, modestly boosting Final Fantasy VIII against Vice City.

What this is

Each row's Headline and (on filter) narrative come from a ChatGPT reading of that match's Board 8 wiki writeup. The five flags (SFF same-fanbase factor, LFF low-fanbase factor, Rally outside rally, Cheat cheating alleged, Pic match-picture factor) are set only when the writeup asserts that effect — never inferred from the numbers. Hover a check for the note. †OT marks a writeup that mostly wanders off the match.
