Fierce_LiNk Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 The promise was this was to be the best Zelda game ever made. So far it doesn't appear to be the case, i'll make my ultimate judgement upon completing the game as to whether Nintendo have misled and deceived or not. I'd very much like to be able to do that, i'll look into it and see if its possible to make a review that can be classified as an "editorial review"... Hang on, reviews have been calling it the best Zelda game ever made. Think about that. The score is not important. It's what is said during the review.

Just don't read the scores, then you'll have nothing to worry about. Look at the state societys in, can you really take all these gaming journalists seriously? Just enjoy the game, its just a number, every single reviewer could give this game 10/10, it doesn't mean its a better game, its just a number. Judge the game based on your own personal experiences and emotions as you play it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solitanze Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Will you crack it? No unfortunately... Was a little disappointed, but wearing off, as these 8/10 scores are becoming quite common, they aren't really much of a surpise so, i'm actually starting to accept them... I'm sure that Solitanze is Oot fanboy.I.E find reasons to make sure that new zelda games are no better than oot. You could say that I am, played the game, really enjoyed it.

Serebii Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 You know, even though I'm a Pokémon Site, my site gets more hits than 90% of the ones listed on gamerankigs that have reviewed it. Maybe I should write a review and give it like 100 :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaggle64 Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Seriously solitaise, aren't you ever scared that one day you'll wake up old and haggred and suddenly realise that your whole life has been frittered away on an endless binge of review scores and bitter complaining about the opinion of others? Anyway, Madden has been doing surprisingly well. Top of my list now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solitanze Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 YES DO THAT! (give it 10/10 that is) You'll be seen as a sacred figure in this forum if you're able to pull that off [successfully contribute to the average ratio on gamerankings.com]... 10/10 bare minimum though...

Serebii Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Well I do have a reputation as a published journalist (Yes, PUBLISHED, check many NOMs and POMs for my name) to uphold so I'll have to play through it to actually write a review :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Ocarina's of Time score should be lower now than it was all those years ago. One thing why GameRanking's "Ranking" mean hardly anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintendork Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I'm more interested if Galaxy outdoes 64. It has the potential to, fresh ideas.. new setting with classic themes.. stars, coins, Bowser.. Peach and bosses. Each planet has it's own physics.. the controller can aid really new and thought provoking puzzles and it has a really disorientating feel to it running around upside-down. It feels like a new dimension again. Mario 64 pioneered 3D sure.. but Galaxy ain't gonna go down without a fight. For me the Zelda debate is over.. Twilight Princess is the best Zelda yet, especially for kids and newbies, but not the biggest leap in the series' history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's weird people don;t seem to see it as being innovative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nintendork Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 Modern games get much more reviews (RE4 got over 100 while Zelda Ocarina of Time trails with 30) the industry has expanded with the internet. There is a more diverse ecosystem for reviews. As a result reviews will vary more so. As tastes vary the more people who review the lower the score will be statistically speaking. As many consider it a 10 game.. if 30 people say it's a 8/9 game it will get knocked off.. these opinions weren't accepted 10 years ago but now if you have a following you can have a review.

Bluejay Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 Give it 1 out of 100, and put solitanze out of his misery. I second that notion. Its funny when Internet nerds like Solitanze get upset over trivial things like GameRankings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 Have any of you guys thought that Solintaze is taking us for a ride and doesn't care at all about the scores? I bet he's laughing with his friends at what we've been posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James McGeachie Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 Zelda's been pushed back up to #7 Actually it hasn't, it just says that on the front page for some reason. If you go to the actual rankings and look at the order it's not in the top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
