Why Pereira and Sessler are Both Wrong

No, this isn't some fanboy rant about which game was neglected. This is about discussing games the way they deserve to be discussed.

TGR's Andrew Groen writes: "If there is, in fact, a correct answer to this debate, as Sessler and Periera would have you believe, then gaming is not art. There is no such thing as an indisputable "best work of art." However, there is a true answer to what is the best operating system (depending on your needs) or the best internet browser, in terms of features and capabilities. If we're going to talk about a true answer to which is the best game then we are boiling video games down to basic pieces of software."

The author makes some strong points here.

WANNA GET HIGH6033d ago

Y should u care who wins GOTY.Just play the game u want.N4G is not how it use to be back in the day.Nowadays we just have fan boys with multiple accounts that spam and post sh1t if a game gets a low review score.That is there opinion of giving fable2 game of the year so just deal with it.

cain1416032d ago (Edited 6032d ago )

@1.1

Did you even read the article?

Viewtiful6032d ago

lol Not only did he not read the article, he didn't even read the synopsis.

prowiew6032d ago

Of course, to make claims like this is to call the "Game of the Year" concept into question as well, as it intrinsically implies that you're wrong if you disagree.

Really, though, this is a way to attract attention, so hopefully it will lead to a greater discourse of the games in question and not petty name calling between two colleagues.

That'd just be wrong.

Viewtiful6033d ago

I see what you did there at the end...clever lol.

SirLarr6033d ago

Isn't that whole article just common sense?

Viewtiful6033d ago

Clearly it's not since some of the most prominent people in the industry don't seem to understand.

Bnet3436033d ago

Of course this is common sense. You can't be wrong about an opinion, it makes no sense. This is the same thing as people complaining about a review score.

MasterBlaster6032d ago

Ok then lets say my opinion is that Too Human is GOTY.... I would be wrong. That would make my opinion wrong.

Nathan Drake6033d ago

Sorry,you gave it GOTY because Molyneux gave your publication a f*cking exclusive on his upcoming projects,you KNOW that it doesn't deserve it GOTY since there are much better Ps3,Xbox 360,Wii,and PC games that came out in 2008 that absolutely run laps around Fable 2 in every aspect-Gameplaywise,Graphicwis e,Musicwise,Onlinewise,etc.

GiantEnemyCrab6033d ago (Edited 6033d ago )

Oh big surprise. Nathan Drake avatar is the dead giveaway. Another PS3 supporter claiming a conspiracy and pay off.

Unless you can provide some kind of proof give it up.

Fable 2 is well deserving of GOTY. My guess is you have never even played the game. Excellent gameplay, excellent story, excellent soundtrack and while it may not be the first choice in some gamers minds it has all the makings of a game that deserves the honor.

IN MY OPINION! <- important thing to add and something you should of said in your post.

So Easy I Can Do It6033d ago

You know Fable 2 isn't GOTY quality.
And lets not point fingers at who's the fanboy cause three of your is pointing back at you.

Gears 2 should be GOTY instead of Fable 2 no doubt.

austere6032d ago

wrong. Having played all the big games out that are deserving of GOTY....

MGS4 takes it hands down, no doubt in my mind and I don't see how anyone could see otherwise. It is a masterpiece. Gears was great but no where near as lasting in your mind once you are done with it like MGS4 is. Sad that Dead Space got completely shut out when it was so amazing.

Still...it's MGS4 all the way.

ReTarDedFisHy6032d ago

MGS4 wins so hard, I'm not even going to explain why.

and then vote in december, what game are you gonna think about and remember more of......?

Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements

I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed

ZeekQuattro55d ago

Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.

New Vegas and Morrowind should have been first!

Christopher64d ago

Fairly certain we all know that New Vegas isn't getting anything because it's not a Bethesda developed game.

OMGitzThatGuy63d ago

MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it.

Christopher63d ago

***MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it. ***

I think the issue is that it's not a Bethesda developed game, not that MS owns both. This is more about Todd.

RaidenBlack63d ago (Edited 63d ago )

Yep ... Todd doesn't like getting bettered within his own IP scope.
I still think of the Elder Scrolls spin-off Obsidian pitched similar to New Vegas, but Todd rejected.

RaidenBlack63d ago (Edited 63d ago )

Replayed NV more than FO3 ... so I appreciate the FO3 remaster more.
For NV, I'd much prefer a sequel or a spinoff from Obsidian.

FTLmaster63d ago

Got a soft spot for Fallout 3, so I'd be down to play this.

-Foxtrot63d ago

It's crazy New Vegas wasn't worked on first to launch alongside Fallout Season 2.

They could have added all the cut content they had planned but didn't have enough development time to add, possibly even expand on it a little more. For example, have the Vegas strip as one big hub over being chopped into smaller sections we have to keep loading into.

neutralgamer199263d ago

Would love a complete remake or sequel with enough resources

Abnor_Mal63d ago

The only Fallout game I’ve played, PS3 had to keep stopping every few minutes to save. Next thing I knew the credits were rolling and I never did any side quest. I never replayed the game because of all the bugs the game had.

Yui_Suzumiya63d ago (Edited 63d ago )

I've played Fallout 3 more than any game. I lost count many years ago of how many times I finished it. It was my first Platinum trophy. But yeah, it was buggy on PS3 at launch before it got properly patched.

anast63d ago

They are only remaking their games that have been streamlined.
