Kingdom Hearts is one of the best games of this generation. SoulCalibur is more or less the best 3D fighter there is, but KH still tears it to bits. (amusing aside: Despite my owning SoulCalibur II, and having much more practice in that version, I am still better with SoulCalibur DC's Siegfried than I am with ANYONE in SC2)
And StarCraft beating Halo proves to me there is a God.
HALO is not that good a game until you have at least 6 people playing... at which point practically any multiplayer game becomes good. >_>;

I am not a huge fan of Halo by any means but I could never get into starcraft and therefore dislike it. SC2 I think is fun, but it's a button-masher for sure. Guilty Gear X is where it's at ;-). SC2 is the best 3d fighter out there though.
This is a cross genre comparison, so I prefer to think of comparison in percentages. KH is a good game, but I'm hesitant to say a 'great' game. Soul Calibur, on the other hand, is better. I'm saying this on the basis of what KH is to regular RPGs, and what SC is to fighters.
SC offers gameplay second to none, and has a very deep story (which is seriously lacking in most fighters). It has a lot more replay value than most fighters as well.
KH was on the cusp of being great, I will admit. However, it didn't capture the 'Disney' magic, although Square really had free reign to do so. This really was the first time in a long while that Square could've taken RPGs well past the tried and true Final Fantasy mold - but didn't.
So, what I'm saying is, relative to their own genres, SC did a lot more for its genre than KH did. Just simply comparing the two (in my honest opinion) is fairly stupid, and really is an indictment of the internet gaming community which doesn't really give a second thought to those kinds of comparisons. I suppose I'm just stating the obvious, since Starcraft apparently only *narrowly* beat Halo. Yes, Halo is fun, but it's fun in the same way Counterstrike or (my favorite) TFC is fun: you get a lot of people playing together. StarCraft... is, well, StarCraft.

Bah! Who cares about Soul Calibur, Virtua Fighter 4(Evo) wipes the floor with it IMO. :thumbs-up:
Who care about the polls anyway. GameFAQs is good for the FAQs and for some of the game specific boards, everything else is made up of the ravings of fanboys who cant understand that people can have a difference of opinion on what makes a good game. :rant

Well, I'd say it's certainly a heck of a lot simpler, but SC still isn't a button masher. Especially the second one, I mean you can whoop the mentally deficient AI, but another player will make soup out of you. Yes, soup.
Also, I really like that page that overlays your text onto that cardboard. I thought of some other good stuff, but it's too mean. Funny, but very offensive.
