jarosh said:epic mickey deserves an edge 4 or 3, not a 7. it's a fucking disaster of a game. never fun, fundamentally broken and ass ugly. you spend more time looking at quest update notifications and camera pans than playing the game. and what you play is dull dull dull. one tedious and nonsensical fetch quest after another, interrupted by inane, throwaway 2d platforming sequences with yawn-inducing, braindead level design. and even the music sucked. i thought for a long time metroid other m would be my personal worst game of the year - and it certainly set the bar low - but then i played epic mickey. oh boy.

DennisK4 said:Look, Bayonetta is a competent action game in the style of DMC. I can give it that.
But the ridiculous visual design is so bad that it ruins the game for me. I feel like gaming takes one step forward and then Bayonetta makes gaming take two steps back.
And I admit that having something like Bayonetta mentioned as GOTY along side games such as SMG2, RDR and Mass Effect 2 makes me despair.
Edit: I played Bayonetta on PS3.

There's nothing to disagree about. The things Bayonetta's art does right aren't subjective. Even if you don't like the way it looks it still accomplishes certain things to a degree well above most other games.LCfiner said:Let's agree to disagree.
V_Arnold said:Let us just say the art of Bayonetta is both very unique and consistent. That is what counts. Somebody does not like it? That does not make it bad art.

EDGE tend to think like that but thing is even the history side is untapped potential with repeating NPCs (it was some sort of in-joke of they're different animation cells that fell flat) while vast amounts of Disneys forgotten catalogue are left well, forgotten. At least that is what I gathered from this post in the OT. Then again there is also this so its a little of a and a little of b.Arnie said:From the sounds of that conclusion EDGE were impressed with the amount of history and research that went into the creation of Epic Mickey and were interested in this whilst playing it. If this was such a fundamental part of their overall experience with the game and contributed so heavily to the final score they gave it how then can it be compared to DKC.
i pre-ordered it. i was optimistic. really. i had high hopes. but it's fucking awful.Dabanton said:Is Epic Mickey that bad? i stopped following updates about it months ago when it was looking like it wasn't going to be as dark as i hoped...
oh we've been through this in the other m thread. we really really have.Maxrunner said:Metroid Other m worst game??? joke post?

DennisK4 said::lol Bayonetta
EDGE credibility ruined.
Yeah, it can take a while... Have you noticed how it's less expensive for us Euros to order each issue separately rather than subscribe for the whole year?Blimblim said:Still waiting to get my issue 222, meh. Fucking french post.
Let me guess you really like Enslaved?DennisK4 said::lol Bayonetta

Seriously though, I cannot fathom the praise for Bayonneta.
And Edge is more out of thouch with gaming than ever before. UK gaming and in general. Last bastion of 'japanese games are just better'

djtiesto said:Surprised to see a high score for Golden Sun, I always was under the impression that Edge didn't particularly care for traditional RPGs (haven't played it myself).
Call them and raise this concern, saying you'd like to cancel. They are usually pretty good about that kind of stuff. I was paying 9.99 per 3 issues for a while until I saw an ad for like 6.99, they changed me to a lower scheme immediately knowing that the vast majority of subscribers won't bother to change.crispyben said:Yeah, it can take a while...

hamchan said:How can you not recognize the brilliance in Bayonetta's gameplay? The artistic style is pretty much all subjective but the actual gameplay shits on every other action game out there and I don't know what to say if you don't recognize that. It deserves all the high praise it gets.

Bu-bu-but iPhone is killing the DS and PSP market!!!!!!!!!!!!!!kinggroin said:Calm down. The category for best hardware is incredibly broad, and without any context other than the other two nominees, one could argue any case here. For what's its worth, I agree with the choice. Though I think that isn't saying anything at all. All three of those devices provide rather lackluster gaming experiences imo (each having a better alternative as far software is concerned).
I guess the iphone has the best games of all phones (but who the fuck would buy it or its derivatives for gaming). Whatever.
