Everyone nitpicking over rankings and percentages, remember: it's a matter of opinion. You don't like it, go write your own damn magazine.

 

Besides, we should all know Super Monkey Ball is a better game than Metroid Prime. It's not only common knowledge, but scientific fact. And it's just not the done thing to argue with science.

It's hear hear, you tool :heh:, and If you're cool like me, it's Hear ye Hear ye.

 

Also, Monkey Ball doesn't hold a candle to Metroid Prime, The Main Game is great but it's a pile of shit when placed next to the godliness that is Prime. But Monkey Ball wins on the multiplayer front by default (and also cause Monkey Target is teh Sex.).

 

Metroid > Monkey Ball. Fact.

Quoted for Truth.

 

Although they both are superb games.

Read alot of it last night! Really great!

 

Alot of the news were rumours i suppose! Espicially the one about the classic Nintendo controller with the two spring hinges thing, which you can press and two lines open up on the back....they have no-idea what it is and either do i!

Assassin's Creed's exlusivivity to PS3 looking "shaky"

 

Yes, it's so shaky that OXM ran a preveiw of it.

Oh and Ubisoft confirmed it was coming out also on 360 and PC a while back.

That game rankings list shows that Nintendo have the highest calibre of games, because they have the most in the top ten. Ocarina of Time at number one, I wouldn't have it any other way.

 

By the way, the Master Quest disc on the GameCube got a review of 82%, when they gave the Nintendo 64 one a 98% I think. What could be so bad about a straight port with no updates that causes them to drop the rating by 16%. The best game of all time has been dumped on.

Wasn't there longer load times (on the Master Quest disc) or am I going mad?

Well apart from things like controls becoming better in the Wind Waker to drop the score slightly, I'm pretty sure they gave that to the Master Quest and not the actual OOT game.

 

I do agree with what most have said in this thread, all of the changes to scores, for me, makes reviews redundant. Why should I believe a review if a few months later you are going to change it as if you made a mistake. Stick with Gamespot.

stick with gamespot?Are u serious?they gave tony hawks pro skater 3 a 10.0.they gave mario kart 64 a 6.4 and they gave micromachines v4 a 5.5 despite being very good.I never listen to gamespot

 

I couldn't say, I never played it on the Nintendo 64. Do load times really count for 16% off of the greatest game of all time though?

best game or not it was still 5 years old with no updates.after all mario 64 ds didnt get as good as the orginal and that HAd updates(ok controls were a bit sloppy)

Nope, but just trying to think of a factor towards the points being taken off.

remember though this isn't NGC anymore, it's a brand new magazine starting from issue one all over again. it's ratings system is on a par with EDGE's stricter handling of scores, only this time represented through percentages. having star games being from 85% upwards instead of the usual 90% should show you that it is a completely different scoring system than normal single format magazines. i'll definitely be sticking with it, was jam packed full of goodness (though may wait for a different subscription gift as i have a wavebird).

 

and the clicky button and the flaps on the classic controller aren't rumours. they may not know exactly what they are for, but the button and it's "flaps" exist, there were photos. they must be for something!

:nono: I did not know that. 6.4 for Mario Kart?! Forget what I said. Trust no one!!

When I think about buying a game I'm not 100% sure about, I usually consult NGC, IGN and Gamespot. I can never fully trust NGC's reviews of Nintendo games, Gamespot seem to give a very critical response (so I know it's godd if they give it a good score) and IGN give very detailed reviews as well.

 

Gamespot can give some pretty harsh reviews: Super Mario Sunshine: 8.4 and Smash Bros something like 8.2! Lunacy!

They actually gave Mario Sunshine 8.0 I think. I enjoyed it first time through. I'd say, look over a variety of reviews like you said, because at the end of the day a review is just another guys opinion.
