20AM A Winner is Link!
The winner of the third annual GameFAQs Character Battle is Link from the Legend of
Zelda series, who beat out Final Fantasy VII's Cloud in a heated battle. The final
unoffical rankings (not including tie-breakers) are online, and you can view the final
bracket as well. Official winners should be announced in the next week or two.

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I wonder when the term "fanboy" became associated with videogames? I always thought it was a term on the Internet which meant someone who likes anime.</div>
