tell that to IGN, Gamespot and all of the other sites that rate games.

**GK Punk** · 09-18-2007, 01:27 PM

'cause if IGN says it's good, you can take that to the bank.

Peanut · 09-18-2007, 01:29 PM

Alright, so Metroid got scored well, but those other two are complete and utter sh*t. If Wii Sports wasn't a free pack-in, it would have gotten hammered. Just like it should, because it's gimmicky trash. And Red Steel got reamed everywhere.

And like GK said...IGN...Nintendo games....reliable? ROFL! Yeah, ok.

Once again, faaaaail.

Matt Cassamassina is the best reviewer in the world, he's not a fanboy and he doesn't want to have sex with Perrin Kaplan.

*Cure* · 09-18-2007, 02:36 PM

I think I just got soaked in sarcasm juice.

*Dr. Doom* · 09-18-2007, 04:44 PM

Prime 3 isn't a horrible game, it's just kind of a soulless shadow of the original Prime from what I can tell.

Also, it wants to be Halo. Who else here got that from the first level?

Everyone who isn't a Nintendo fanboy since we all first saw it?

Smackdown Vs Raw 07. Same as 06 just nicer looking with different controls.
TMNT tournament fighters for Genisis- I really hate this game...I tried enjoying it so much, I really did. I saw it at a thrift store for 5 bucks and almost cried cuz I was so excited. Plopped it into my Genesis like the graphics and the music, that was pretty cool. Then I played it, and I just got owned. And adding more strength and speed to your character is the most useless thing ever, you still get owned. Tghe controls suck, the enemies are cheap and at times impossible to beat. Man I really tried to like this game but I failed.

What?! The original Zelda is one of the worst?

Plus Zelda II isn't bad at all. It's a different format from the usual Zelda game, but that was before there was a usual Zelda game.

*Rooish* · 10-07-2007, 10:35 PM

Can someone break down for me why it is that Zelda: Twilight Princess sucked so much? I haven't played it, but some of my friends liked it, and I'm curious.

**Barkworm** · 10-07-2007, 11:29 PM

The game didn't suck, saying that would be over-dramatical. The dungeon and boss design in the game is top notch, probably the best in the series. Apart from that the game just feels very uninspired, especially towards the end. Compared to other triple A titles the presentation is very lackluster with mediocre graphics and sound.

Peanut · 10-08-2007, 02:07 AM

Yeah, it didn't suck. It just completely failed to live up to the hype. It's a good game, but it just has absolutely zero personality. Of all the Zelda games it easily has the least charm, and being the follow up to the brimming with charm Wind Waker made it look even worse.

If it had come out two to three years ago, it would have been much better, but it felt completely dated by the time it came out.

*Dr. Doom* · 10-08-2007, 04:04 PM

There is at least one person here who loved Twilight Princess, you should know. I couldn't disagree more with the previous statement. I thought the whole game was absolutely brilliant. (Note: I loved Wind Waker, too)

Just Cause

I mean, what the hell? I heard such good things. It was too easy and bored me after a couple of hours.

Wasn't it supposed to originally come out two years ago?

**Barkworm** · 10-10-2007, 01:28 AM

Yep, it was just delayed to add the "revolutionary" (i.e. gimmicky) Wii controls.

*Rooish* · 10-10-2007, 08:41 AM

Oh, that's kind of lame. Oh well. Yeah, from the clips I saw of Twilight Princess, it seemed to lack charm. Anyway, I guess I misinterpreted the thread: "disappointing" does not necessarily mean it sucked.

Agreed! All the missions were the same! Very boring.

The only cool thing about the game was the stunt system. I loved that you could fly a plane up in the air, and sky dive out. But you can only do that so many times.

EVERQUEST

DO NOT LIKE!!!!!

Just my opinion.

The apparent lack of true alternate costumes in Brawl as opposed to color swaps.
