This is what we should all be raging about.cajunator said:The only reason I am pissed off right now is because reviewers got to play this game and I haven't touched it yet.
I will rage on for another 9 days.
Shut ya face.butter_stick said:Anyone that has this opinion is drunk.
DefectiveReject said:I'm not criticising the scores in this thread as opinions are opinions.
I don't like though is out of 5 or out of 10 scoring for any game.
I mean the difference between 4 and 5 out of 5 is massive.
This is so true, at least for 3D Zeldas anyway. Twilight Princess on the other hand has the best dungeon design out of the 3d games imo.hyduK said:Large, empty world?
Boring fetch quest?
The worst, easiest, dungeons in the series? Two of which require you to carry someone around the whole time?
The combat was actually decent though.
You can't be serious, most of TSA's impressions are hyperbolic crap especially his rants about Ghirahim, the stamina, warp system, and dungeon musicoatmeal said:Amazing impressions TSA...better than any review I've read so far.
And you definitely hit on a lot of things that I was worried about (Tears, backtracking, etc.)
Well, I can now say "I can wait for this game."
Medalion said:This has got to be the lowest rated console Zelda I've seen...ever
And yet I still want to play it, what is wrong with me?
Twilight Princess was the first Zelda game I finished, so I probably value it more than others. I played Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask when I was like 7 or 8, but never got close to finishing them.GCX said:So is it time to start praising Twilight Princess?

TheGreatMightyPoo said:When it comes down to it, Skyward Sword, Uncharted 3, Batman and Skyrim will all get Game of the Year(s).
Maybe some other games as well but not as much.
The First Two Dungeons
Absolutely cookie cutter design, boring puzzles, and almost no personality. They're also incredibly short - some of the shortest dungeons I've ever seen in a 3D Zelda game.

Wait, what? Sorry but I'm going to have to disagree. MM had the best dungeon design from the 3d games. PERIOD.Instro said:This is so true, at least for 3D Zeldas anyway. Twilight Princess on the other hand has the best dungeon design out of the 3d games imo.

I think this will actually become a recursive loop of Zelda fans sitting around being kind of grumpy about low scores, bracing themselves for a surge of idiots from other communities, while other communities are doing exactly the same thing.bananas said:I bet if the Uncharted 3 fanboys didn't get their public, humiliating shame brought upon them for their ridiculous, childlike temper tantrums, this thread would probably be worse.
Feep said:I'd do a bigger warning. You tell people, and some other stuff. I'd go a general marking near the top.what the three areas are, that there are time mechanics, that you reenter the Skyview Temple
zelda shouldn't have to change to be great, but the series as it used to be wasn't good enough anymore, so that's worrying.Socreges said:Can anyone explain to me what that last sentence means?
Goldmund said:I don't think anyone at Giant Bomb (except maybe Brad "5 stars" Shoemaker) would have rated Zelda higher, Jeff maybe even lower.
_Alkaline_ said:Agreed.
So far it's pretty sane, but after the public humiliation UC3's review thread got, I can't imagine too many willingly putting themselves out there for such ridicule.
Sn4ke_911 said:TSA do you know when the GT review will be up?
He liked Skyrim better. That's all I get.Socreges said:Can anyone explain to me what that last sentence means?
The thing is Alberto, there are reviews that say control is amazing, and there are some that say you'll 'hate' the control.ShockingAlberto said:I think the only review that I felt was reviewing the Wii and not the game was Gamepro's.
Otherwise, eh. Dudes likes different things. If this game had come out in 2006, I daresay it probably would be considered differently. There's two sides to the coin of people wanting a game to "save" a storied series and sometimes it lands on "OH MY GOD IT HAPPENED" and other times it is "TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE."
Try this, GAF. Take all the scores out of these reviews in your head. Do you think the things they talk about will affect you, positively or negatively, when you play the game?
butter_stick said:Wind Waker is unfinished. It has the worst dungeons of the 3D games, and it doesn't have many of them. It has the Triforce quest. It has an overworld where it takes you 10 seconds to CHANGE DIRECTION.
It's a good game, and I love a lot about it, but it's flawed in ways Twilight Princess isn't. TP is much more consistent, and is a pretty much perfect refinement of Ocarina of Time.
I love the dungeons in Wind Waker all of them. Especially the forest one and the Wind temple.butter_stick said:Wind Waker is unfinished.

ivysaur12 said:Complete sense of adventure while exploring a huge overworld. One small fetch quest that took up almost no time. Some of the most interesting items in a Zelda game (bring back the Deku Leaf) Some great boss fights. The best story in a Zelda game. Bar none. One of the most impressive atmospheres in a game. A great hub world (Windfall Island). And I loved the Earth and Wind Temple.
Meh, having multiple reviews score in the 8 range probably helps too. There's only so many people you can claim were molested as children before it just gets ridiculous, after all!bananas said:I bet if the Uncharted 3 fanboys didn't get their public, humiliating shame brought upon them for their ridiculous, childlike temper tantrums, this thread would probably be worse.
Usually this is caused by changing standards.scitek said:I've never understood G4's scoring system. For example, Sessler gave No More Heroes a 5/5, then in the review for NMH 2, it was stated to be superior in practically every way, then it got 4/5. Maybe those were two different reviewers. Will your review be used for X-Play?
