Good scores.

Don't hold your breath for GS though in terms of getting the review out in a timely manner if Halo: Reach is anything to go by.

Looks like the Wii might break it's AAAE drought. :P

[QUOTE="sikanderahmed"]

great score and all but this game is obviously for little kids i mean look at the way story is told

Radec09

Doesn't make it a bad game though. Sometimes its ok to enjoy a game that isn't full of violence you know?

Who's talking about violence? Some complexity that forces you to use your brain cells should be required though.

Nfanboys that solely buy Nintendo products remind me of 30 year olds that still play with Lego or read fairytales, when they could be constructing houses or reading Dostoevsky.

So people who are 30 years old and still enjoy Legos and fairytales are idiots? Oh come on you can enjoy something childish as long as it's fun. I'm not a Nintendo fanboy, just a fan who buys most of their first party games, and I can tell you yes their games do have a kiddy appeal, but that appeal is widespread, anyone can enjoy them if they like fun. Gamespot gave it Best of Show at E3 so I guess all Gamespot's employees are little kids too huh?

Haha it's hilarious how even after Super Mario Galaxy 2 there's still a AAAE drought since AAAAEs apparently don't count :P.

_BlueDuck_

1UP said this too, for adults its very cheesy but for kids it should be fine. I'm guessing 9-12 should find it pretty good. Anyone older would find it too childish.

Except for 1UP's review concludes with "Put simply, Kirby's Epic Yarn is a game everyone can enjoy."

They will and while it'll seem stupid it does bring up the fault of using GS scores only. So what if Gamespot doesn't like something that much, if practically every single critic on Earth likes a game except one person at Gamespot the game succeeded critically, it didn't fail just because Gamespot didn't love it.

I really don't see how it won't get AAAE here. Don't forget they gave it GOTS during E3. But I wouldn't be mad at an AAE either.

Because having random magazines giver a game 100 for the lol of it is not a good way to trust a review. It also prevents nitpicking, herp this review is better then that one, also, GS> most reviewers.

Aside from it being ridiculously pretty, what's so special about it?

I'll probably buy it anyway butI don't trust reviewers.

Cows and Lems would blame standards, and ignore it for being too colourful and about a floatingandrogynous blob with no chainsaw in sight. The Sheep would come out from hiding for a week or so and then go back into hidingm atleast until DK World is released.

Same. At this point I'm expecting a AAA Metascore but GS is gonna say it's too easy and give it an 8.5.

You apparently know absolutely nothing about the game. IT'S NOT OUT YET. My Lord how am I supposed to tell you what I like best about it when it's not even out yet? I'll tell you if I like it and what I like best about it when I play it

8.5. Called it.

Unfortunately this means even if its Metascore is above a 90 the fanboys are gonna consider it a AAE...

Yeah that really is their go-to score, but it's better than being known for always giving out 9s, I see DK getting an 8.5 too.

It is a good thing that I do not hype games, even if a game has a very good chance of score very well at GameSpot. I do not want to be disappointed.

Seeing as how I love and enjoy Kirby games, and anyone who's played a Kirby game will know, these games are never hard. Seriously, I've yet to encounter a Kirby game that I couldn't beat in a few hours and collect everything in the first run through, but with that said, there's a charm to Kirby games I can't deny and that makes me love them a lot. I can't wait for this game :D

Not saying Kirby deserves AAA or GS goofed, but my god, it seems like every Wii game these days gets 8.5. It gets quite boring TBH. Disney Epic Mickey seems like the Wii's last hope for the remainder of the year to get AAA.

Too easy is the worst part of a game. It is a total slooze fest when a game is too easy. My vehement hatred of R&C TOD among other games should reflect this. Easy games are easily the worst. Even broken games I find more enjoyable.
