WTF! Gamespot SUCKS!

I always look at at least 3 reveiws before desiding on a game I never head of (not zelda of coarse). But by reading his review, I got the fealing he never realy liked the zelda games. Part of the reason he didn't like the game, was because the puzzles were too hard for him.

He also complained that the Wii-specifics feels liek thay were tacked on. I laughed at that, cause THAY WERE ADDED ON. Since it was made for GC from the start.

Watching the video review now, it sounds like he hate the old story of "Link saves zelda", he don't like swinging the controler to swing a sword. Perhaps it will not be great as he says, but it IS one of the first games on Wii. Stupedist reason it got a 8.8 is because of Sound, cause he didn't like the sound from the nun-chuk and he wanted new sounds instead of the old zelda sound effects.

As for gamespot way of ranking, Sound should not have as much waight in the overall rating then Gameplay and replay value. Same can be sead of graphics.

Afterall, not every game can be purfect like Mario kart: double dash. (thats my opinion, cause I thin Mario kart is the best game ever)
 
Mariox officially sucks for thinking Double Dash is perfect.

The highest score I ever seen on Gamespot was a 9.8, and that was FFX.
 
Never said I wasnt a Fan boy and never said it would effect how it stop me from buying the game or how its played his review I thought was whinning not even considering that it was build from the gamecube build. Some of you gotten it wrong but I dont care these forums are funny to read and seeing asshats answer me make me laugh. thanks for the smiles =)

Fix'd.

Seriously, I enjoy Zelda as much as the next person, but I don't bitch when it recieves something under a perfect 10. Shit, 8.8 is still better than most.

I can tell you took alot of time to come up with that reply thanks for the fix as to your edting my comment instead of seeing the review first to see why I felt it was alil uncalled for. Maybe next time you will reply with somthing more tastful then a kiddie forum bash. Reviewers get dissed all the time for ppl to assume I dont know this is silly. I stated how I felt *just as he did* I can agree or not agree a forum is a place to state your opinion.

Gamespot is the my favorite review site because they are pretty honest. No matter how hyped a game may be or how hyped they may be for the game, they rate it honestly. I'm sure if Zelda had come out last year, instead of being held back to make a Wii version, the game would have gotten a 9.something, but you have to face reality. No matter how good the game may be, the controls and the graphics are somewhat dated, so a perfect score would be a lie.

Gears of War was given a 10 by EGM. A 10! Nevermind the AI was horrible (games have had their scores lowered for that alone), cutscenes go at 15 fps, glitches galore, the use A for everything system can be cluncky at times, incompetent online support, and the most dissapointing boss fight a game has had in awhile. That's what happens when a reviewer let's his love for a title take over and doesn't review honestly.

For a good idea of what reviews think, you should listen to their podcasts.

Gamespot. They do a new show on Tuesdays so you can probably hear Jeff defend himself then. http://www.gamespot.com/pages/features/hotspot/index.php?tag=spotlight_right;img

IGN. Not very good but hey, Matt loves Zelda. http://www.ign.com/index/podcasts.html

1 up. These people have some pretty good opinions, unfortunatly they always talk over one another ><. And curse alot. http://www.1up.com/do/minisite?cId=3144909

Anywho, I'm about to head out to pick up my Wii, I hope I'm able to get my copy of Zelda aswell.
 
What did OoT get? Was GameSpot around then?

They gave TP a 8.8 wtf guys go to gamespot and tell that fat fucking 360 fan boy Jeff to fuck himself! I feel he insluted the very meaning of the Zelda game no body cares what he thinks If you wanna see why I am pissed go see the video review he is one of these guys that just make me sick when they over analzye a game and think they know better then you what it should be. I will buy it to Spite him! *ok I am going to anyways* but dam its just really sad. But dont loose hope every other Game site gave it what it deserves.

Why do you even care?
Hell, why do people even read reviews, most are horribly inaccurate, many involve payoffs from developers. Take them all with a grain of salt.

This made me lol.
And the fact that someone, somewhere gave it a perfect 10 proves my point...
 
that gears game wins on its commercial alone, thats an auto-10. I played for like 5 min before I hit the bars yesterday for all the college action and seemed decent enough. It gets my 10!

OoT got a 10.0, one of the few. And GameSpot has been around for I believe 15 years iirc, almost as long as cnet.com itself.

what copy did you get ahold of? The AI was just fine. The only AI that sucked was your team mates, and thats fine because it was meant to be multiplayer anyway and i dont really care what my AI teamates do, i wanna do it.
the cutscenes ran great, doubtful 15 fps unless your box sucks.
Glitches? I have found only one glitch and it was already patched.
The multiplayer chainsaw glitch, chainsaw someone and you cant move or do anything on occasion.
thats the only one anyone ive played with has noted.
the online, is fun as hell. i love playing online. Be it campaign or multiplayer its a win win situation.
and the boss fight is only disappointing if you beat it on casual/hardcore while on co-op. Its fun as hell on co-op with insane mode, and fun solo. too easy on those two with co-op tho. ill give ya that much.
just cause its not your bag doesnt make it a bad game.
it deserved that review and i cant wait for the next two installments in the trilogy.
It rocked that hard.
