i think the lemmings, xbox 360 die hard fans, should use cow tactics... well, against the cows. officially hype all major titles AA just to be safe but talk about it as if it's an AAA game.

everyone's safe, no one gets their feelings hurt. SW has definitly went downhill.

This is how it should always have been. So just in case its not AAA, you dont get owned becasue you hyped it AA.

yea but other then ME your major titles dont flop here on GS cows hype it what they think it will score here on GS and it normally does?

we hyped a game AA and it got AA, alot of cows think uncharted is an AAA game but we hype it what GS is gonna give it not what we give it

we did not say it was a system seller, we said "if you own a ps3 you owe it to yourself to buy this game"

so, basically, uncharted is a game for the "in crowd". don't waste your money on a ps3 to play this game but if you've already wasted your money on a ps3, check it out?

that makes no sense. you want "killer apps" to push system sales but yet any game that comes around and isn't of "MGS/FF/HALO" caliber, you toss it to the side and say a bunch of bull like "if you own a ps3 you owe it to yourself to buy this game?". not only that, from what i read, the game looks like a rent over a buy.

**edit, i do understand halo isn't a ps3 franchise, i just threw it in to give an example of a system seller. wanted to clear that up for a few people.

Cow tactics = creating loads of fakeboy accounts to make it appear lots of lems are crying. Most lems have manned up accepted ownage and cows can't handle it.

The whole hype thread stuff is kinda stupid since all you're basically trying to do is to guess what GS will score the game, not how you personally feel the game should DESERVE to score. Not to mention anyone can cast a vote which means that lemmings can go to cow hype threads praising it AAA to get it flop and vice versa. Then again I guess it's kinda like democracy, it's not perfect but its the best we've got.

There is no point in hype if you are playing it safe. Hype is there to praise the game to the ends of the earth...At least, that's what it used to be. The problem is that people don't think before they hype, and then they get stung bad, so bad that they don't really hype things anymore. We may still have official hype but it doesn't really mean anything. The majority represents people that don't want to hype the game. So what we get is some polarization and a lot of guesses (usually something like AA). The hype should instead be based on a collective group of individuals that want to hype it, but even that wouldn't work in SW, because then you can claim ownage to anyone but a small number of people, and that wouldn't be very fun. Everyone seems so afraid of getting owned so they hype a game lower than their expectations. It's kind of stupid really. Hyping is just a SW game now, not actual hype machine.
