AniHawk said:How far did you play into TP? Not getting defensive or anything. Just wondering.
BenjaminBirdie said:Whoa! I played a Wii for the first time today. Rocked some Excite Truck. It was okay, but I'll definitely be waiting for WarioWare.

Amir0x said:Certainly not! It's just a terrible videogame, and I don't like things which are terrible!

White Man said:It's the slowest beginning to a Zelda yet. You have to do boring fetch quest shit in the village twice, then you have to go through the caves/forest like 2-3 times. Then you have to do the lame herding game quick. The only bright spot about the beginning was the coolbit. The dungeons are ace, but the stuff between them is not. So far.hyrule castle

I reserve the right to change my opinion at any moment, but the start of the game left a sour taste in my mouth.
White Man said:I understand I'm early on in the game, but that does not excuse the first 2ish hours being slow.

AniHawk said:No, I meant, are you playing the Gamecube version. Again, I'm not getting defensive. I just didn't think you had a Wii.
White Man said:I got a Wii on Saturday.

Could this be a XBLA game?Rare is working on a Viva Pinata Kart racing game.
AltogetherAndrews said:Bah. Scratch the "FPS" part altogether and we'll see how this demand for originality holds up, now and in the future.

whatdidyousay said:And both of those games did NOT deserve a 10 score.
no_to_co said:Yeah, how really original is Zelda TP? Haven't we all played the same game in the last 3 incarnation of Zelda? You could diss it for not bringing anything new to the table or you can praise it for being the best incarnation of an old and tested formula.
mmlemay said:They, along with Zelda:TP, are some of the top 1%, most outstanding games in the industry. What else are you gonna give them?
White Man said:That Rainbow 6 score is criminal. The game takes a massive dump on Gears of War. And the Zelda score is too high, although I guess it needs to score higher than WW, and tehre was nowhere else to go but straight 10s. Of course that proves nothing except that WW was massively overrated.
whatdidyousay said:Is COD3 really THAT bad? I liked COD2, I'm not expecting anything mindblowing from the new game, but I was surprised the scores have been lower than last year's version.
MassiveAttack said:Entirely different development teams. One very strong... the other, well, not so strong.

moku said:The Wiisports score is low enough that it makes the rest of thier scores seem farcical.
EGM just did themselves is. Most fun I've had with a game in YEARS. I dont pay attention to scores, but thats just assinine.
whatdidyousay said:I don't know--a 10 score to me is an extremely rare thing. The game has to be absolutely perfect, 100%, top to bottom, inside and out, yada yada.
Halo 2 and GTA: SA weren't 100% perfect. Good, arguably great, games. But not perfect. I can see them each getting 9s and 9.5s, but I wouldn't score either a 10.
Right there with you, bleh. I just want a closer-to-drawn look in Animal Crossing with Connect24 up and working.Lindsay said:
mmlemay said:But they've said repeatedly that a 10 isn't perfect. There will never, ever, ever be a PERFECT game. Using your logic there would never be any 4/5 star movies or albums, either. You have to use your entire scale as a critic.

-Hudsun is releasing a TG16 pack with 3D remakes of Bonk, Adventure Island, and Super Star Soldier for the PS2
...because they are not actually roms? They remade those games in 3D on the PS2 already and are now releasing them as a pack.vectorman06 said:Whats the point of releasing a TG16 pack for the PS2, when Hudsun can release them as VC titles?
whatdidyousay said:Is COD3 really THAT bad? I liked COD2, I'm not expecting anything mindblowing from the new game, but I was surprised the scores have been lower than last year's version. I also thought EGM would score Rainbow Six higher because of how they've been talking about it in previews, on the 1UP Show, etc., not a 9 or 10 game, but at least 8-8.5 all around.
Those Wii scores are about right I guess. Played more Trauma Center this weekend and OHMYDAMNGOD those "cutscenes" are PURE AGONY. Seriously, if I wanted to read, I'd get a book. Even pressing the (-) button to fast-forward through the cutscenes was taking a while--I can't imagine sitting through it and reading it normally.
VALIS said:Yeah, Excite Truck is pretty fun. My Wii Hierarchy:
Pure Poop:
Rabbids
Hawk
Red Steel (I assume)
Kingpen said:COD2 is basically COD2.5 It still is pretty good, but I think it is getting scored lower because it isn't a true SQL and all these guys are tired of playing WW2 games. See I never played a WW2 game before COD2, so I am digging it and COD3. I think it is at least an 8.0 game all around.
Rainbow, this game stole me away from all my other games at the time until I completed a run on it. It absolutely is a 9.0 game, as it is better then GRAW... Those scores are completely off base on that..
John Harker said:If for no other reason than laughing at some of the ridiculousness of it, but it was done as a cheesey campy movie-style on purpose, and in that regard it is successful. I can't believe so many people try to take this game seriously :lol It's like... a joke-post game. Fun for what it is.
whatdidyousay said:I was really, really impressed by GRAW--Rainbow 6 is better??
