Don't play a game because it doesn't get 9/10+? The first Crackdown got a better metacritic average than Modnation Racers. Did you tell people not to play that?
The second is at 71 because of a lack of innovation, but that doesn't mean the game's not fun. Have you played Folklore for PS3? It has a 75 but I thought it was better than most 90+ games. Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle Cars is by far my favorite PSN title, but it has a 67 at metacritic. ...
I hope ME2 or God of War 3 doesn't win.
wow, all of those are sequels. RDR and LBP2 are the only ones that actually try to evolve from the previous games, so I hope they get more GoTYs. And don't forget Mario Galaxy 2.
I liked Mass Effect 1... just finished Mass Effect 2 and was extremely disappointed.
sorry, that looked pretty bad. maybe combat against humans will look better.
How does trying to make something bad make it better?
I'm not surprised it's one of your favorite 360 games, though. zing!
Yeah, the whole "omg, no american dream for me" bs at the end was ridiculous.
Did rockstar make that? That was my first ps2 game and I loooooooved it.
If that was the case, games that are rated around 70 now would just be rated a 60. It's all relative. Games are usually graded as being average, above average, below average ,amazing, or horrible.
Looks great.
Will this be full-priced?
Like Jonah Hex? DO NOT WANT!
Unless they make films like unforgiven or spaghetti westerns... then you can count me in :)
"Gameplay: both among the best in their genre"
LOL, maybe if RDR's genre is "open-world Rockstar games". RDR's gameplay is one of it's weakest links.
And if SMG2 is the same as every mario since 64, RDR is easily the same as every GTA since 3, as well as games like Bully.
SMG2's strong point is gameplay and pretty colors. RDR's strong point is a good, immersive story. Both can coexist peacefully.
Yeah, all they have to do is re-skin New Super Mario Brothers Wii with all the Nintendo franchises! Next up, Star Fox!
YES! Finally I can sleep now that I've found out who won gamesthirst's coveted "Best E3 Conference" award.
That's like saying "what was so great about Nintendo's conference? Another Kirby, another Donkey Kong, another Zelda?"
Yeah, the graphics seem much better even without 3d. Not sure what he was expecting.
must... get... 3ds
Exactly. Sony could've held off on announcing LBP2, Motorstorm 3, Infamous 2, and KZ 3 and just dedicated like 30 minutes of the show to announcing them and showing some footage. That way they could've cut down on all the talking and montages and it would've easily rivaled Nintendo's conference.
KI looked awesome. The only thing I was disappointed with is how the Kirby and DK games almost seem like a super mario brothers wii expansion without the multiplayer. I guess I was just hoping for another 3d DK game.
Looks like I'll be picking up a 3ds. I have a lot of games to catch up on.
EDIT: Oh, epic mickey also looked fun.
Reminds me of Halo: ODST
