[QUOTE="II-FBIsniper-II"][QUOTE="toast_burner"] but we dont count the box set as a seprate game.toast_burner
Right now, we don't count anything GTA IV. That's the problem.

My point is why are we changing the rules its just going to cause confusion and more arguments over what counts and what doesnt

Omg, how to explain this lol: L&D was NOT reviewed, BOGT is new. They both come on a DISC as its own game. It doesn't include the original GTAIV game, it's not a collection. If EFLC doesn't count, then Warhawk doesn't count either because it can be downloaded.

Neither does GT5P and Banjo Kazooie Nuts and Bolts, and they count. Blixxed

And according to the logic of "downloadable games don't count because they aren't held to the same standard as $60 games", they shouldn't. If we're going to enforce these idiotic rules, we should at least be consistent.

So because PC games are available on Steam and D2D, they should not be counted either?

Technically no PC game should count (except for MW2), since they aren't priced at $60 either.

But I think you're misunderstanding me. My point is the current SW "rules" are idiotic and downloadable games (and by extension any game that retails for less than $60) should count.

That's isnt logical or the Metroid Trilogy would count as 3 AAAEs, Orange Box would be 3+ AAAEs, and the GoW Collection would be 2AAAEs. Everything is a package = 1 game.

its an almost guaranteed AAA. for a couple of reasons.

1. its an expansion to gta 4(a game which got a 10 on here)

2. the lost and the damned was also AAA on metacritic. meaning that you know at least half of that game is very good.

3. im personally more excited for gay tony. i think it looks more exciting. especially with them adding things like the parachute, tanks, and other things of that nature which seem to bring back some of the wildness of the older gta's.

How can you already determine he's dull when the game isn't it yet? :?

And anyway, it would defeat the purpose of the expansion pack if Niko was the Playable character.

I understand but when reviewers rate these games, they rate the package AS A WHOLE. What would Orange Box have gotten if it only had HL2 in it? I'm sure TF2 and Portal helped it get that 9.5 score. Without those, it would probably have gotten an 8.5 here. Reviewers, excluding few, give all the games in a package one score because they rate everything together. It's like rating a play after watching all the different acts.

I don't recall there being any new stations in L&D, but they did at a lot of new music. They also put new music into the main game when I downloaded L&D. x:

Definite AAAE.

I still think GTA IV was a big letdown though, however things like parachutes and new guns and all make this a AAA (and regardless what people think, this is Rockstar Games and they deliver high in presentation).

I do wish the original game was as fun as San Andreas, but I guess that's where DLC and "Episodes" come in.


This better be coming to mah Trey :x
