Load Game blog has posted a new analisys about game ratings for each next-gen console. They tell what console has the best or worst game scores so far.
From the mid-1980s to the early part of the 2000s, light gun rail shooters were a staple in both arcade and home system gaming. Arguably, the genre started to really hit its stride in the mid-1990s. While games like Time Crisis, Virtual Cop, and House of the Dead, among others, dominated both the home system and arcade space, some one relegated to only home game systems. Today, we’ll be talking about a little-known cult game published by Sony called Project: Horned Owl. This game was developed by Alfa Systems, and all in all, this is a fun game.
Just like you don’t ask a woman her age, you don’t ask a Final Fantasy fan how many games there are in total.
I don't quiet get who it's directed at. General player? Sure, I can believe them not knowing some of the less popular final fantasy games. But final fantasy FANS? There is nothing forgotten about these games.
Game Rant interviews Plants vs. Zombies composer Peter McConnell about honoring the series’ quirky roots, adapting its themes, and now going vinyl.
The score for the first Plants Vs Zombies is such great, iconic music that it has a timeless quality. Not quite the level of Minecraft, but wonderful in its own right.
One thing is clear. The Wii is really, really average. Which doesn't surprise me with that whole pile of sh!tty partygames, made to score a quick buck on sales from kids that don't know what they're buying.
Yet still bloggers, and fanboys continue their delusions.
Not hard to understand why Wii is last so far. When only Nintendo was ready with quality games at launch. Of course just like the PS2 they have some good games. Most hater 12-17 year olds though will simple claim every game is crap. IF that were really true though I wouldnt have sold my PS3 to buy more Wii games
PS3 is the choice for people who want quality. 360 is the choice for those who want a great selection of games. Wii is the choice for those looking for something different. That is the best way I can think to word it. Reviews only matter to the core gamers anyway.
I've not been convinced by reviews for a long time (too many titles I love get mediocre scores!), so theres only so much you can read into data analysis like this.
I think the high numbers of poorly rated games on the WII does say something. Theres obviously a high number of 'shovel ware' games on the system for a variety of reasons - none of which are Nintendo's fault. Some publishers saw the sales of WII as an excuse to try and 'cash in' on those gamers with some pretty lackluster titles. Still others have attempted to use the unusual control mechanism - and then failed badly, resulting in a poor game.
As far as the differences between 360 and PS3 are concerned, they are close enough as to be almost the same, so you can't draw huge conclusions from it. I guess one conclusion you could draw, is that the old adage "PS3 has no good games" is not actually borne out by the statistics, both systems seem to have a similar number of quality titles.
