Now i do not have a Wii, i have a playstation 3, but i was thinking about how GS gives low scores to some games and i was wondering what some of you Wii guys think about these scores. I mean how in the hell...did Warioware get a better score then Twilight Princess, i mean how does that work?? So i am just asking some questions to the people who own a Wii for my own interest, thank you .

I'm pretty sure i can cover any decent answer possible with

1.) Warioware is a Wii game, Twilight Princess is a GC game
2.) Warioware brings something new to the Wii, Twilight Princess reuses the same gameplay
3.) Warioware is a completely different kind of game than Twilight Princess, and to GS it does a better job in its genre type.

EDIT: That being said i would give Warioware a 7 - 7.9 and I would give Zelda the same score that it got. Neither of them are my favorite Wii title right now...

I dont know why they gave WWSS a 9.1 and TP an 8.8, i own both and believe that WWSS deserves an 8 and TP a 9.5. But its probably because TP plays like all the other Zeldas...

I think that they scored TP correctly. I have not tried WW so I really can't say.

I'm pretty sure i can cover any decent answer possible with

1.) Warioware is a Wii game, Twilight Princess is a GC gameShakeNBake1491


Twilight Princess is a Wii game.  This is not why GS gave it a lower score.  Though, it may not be wrong to say that it being originally made for the cube is an indirect reason for the lower score.. that is, the sound and graphics are not up to par with next gen standards.
 

2.) Warioware brings something new to the Wii, Twilight Princess reuses the same gameplay

Twilight princess brings plenty new.. and even if it didn't, games have scored very well with just perfecting on previous mechanics(link to the past anyone?).  Twilight princess gives you the ability to control ranged combat by aiming your controller.. it also gives you more maneuverbility while using ranged combat.  Not to mention sword mechanics are more interesting and immersive given the new controller; it has vastly improved on the spin attack and the shield bash is a ton of fun to use.

Also, you can fish using a motion sensing controller.

However, you are very right in that this is what gamespot does believe.. though noone is always right.

3.) Warioware is a completely different kind of game than Twilight Princess.

This, i completely agree with though.

As far as i am conserned, this guy is mostly right for explaining why GS gave it a lesser score.  They are different genres and as far as GS is concerned, TP is too much like previous zelda's and the music is not up to par with next gen capabilities.

Though, i completely disagree.  Twilight princess on the wii is a masterpiece and every bit deserving of it's high score on gamerankings.  In fact, i would rate TP a little higher at least.

Wario and Zelda are two different games, There hasn't been a week that has pass without the whole Wario vs. Zelda crap, Zelda is a good game buts its doesn't bring anything new or groundbreaking to the table, The problems with most of you is that you guys/girls are flatout Zelda fanboys that are willing to score any Zelda game a 9.5 + without even playing the game or realizing that the game hasn't involve that much from the past, The whole Wario Ware vs. Zelda debate is annoying and really holds no merrit at all because they are from different type of games, A game should be rated for what it is, I hope people don't start crying if Paper Mario, Metroid Prime 3 or Smash Brothers Brawl scores higher then Zelda?? A game should be rated for what it is plain and simple, For a similation game Wario Ware is a 9.1 according to GS, For a adventure game Zelda is a 8.8 plain and simple.

I'll probably get flamed and even banned for this but bear with me.It seems that jeff gave them these scores because of the controversy,I mean how many peoplposted on te loz boards cause of that,and warioware.if you look at metacritic he is the extreme he either really really likes it(oot,warioware,proskater 3) and is the top rated review or the low rated review(tp,another game I forgot) and to me it seems like he wants attention by giving these awards to game,kinda like how they gave this childrens book the newberry award because it said scrotum(because,in my conspiracy theory,it caused controversy and NOT because it was good) but thats just my rant:P

I wonder if you realise that Zelda TP is the 13th(i believe) highest rated game of all time on gamerankings?

TP has brought alot of new elements to a zelda game.. and it was one of the first action adventure games to utilize the wii's controls; and quite nicely too.  Fishing anyone?

Alot of people that disagree with TP's rating on GS are not zelda fanboys.  TP really is a great game.

GS isnt great for their ratings or reviews....biased beyond belief....trust IGN for ratings....they usually know what they are talking about........and TP deserved is rating...the GC one was better...at least I think....WWSM doesnt deserve higher though...your right with that

Yes, but just becuase its not original doesnt mean its a bad game, I think the haters are more blind logic wise, they make it sound like if a game is not original, it sucks. Seriously, originality is great and all, but you guys make it seem like original>gameplay nowadays.

Yeah and theres not really much else you can do to change the gameplay of the zelda. Purhaps they could've made the sword fighting more realistic or made the movement controls based on tilting the controler (left right forward backward). At least they didn't ruin anything. I mean its true they could've taken more risks but they kept with the tried and true zelda. Its a solid title. Its long like most zelda games should be. But for some reason it leaves something to be desired. I don't know what it is maybe its just me. Matbe its because the ending sequence wasn't nearly as epic as I wanted it to be.
