Gears of War

Halo 3

Call of Duty 4

The Orange Box

GTA4

SMG

TLOZ: Twilight Princess

Oblivion

SSBB

Civilization 4

Company of Heroes

Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords Gold Edition

Bioshock

And Cows still claim this is one of the greatest games of all time...

Edit: MGS4 just got another 80% review, dropping it down to 92.5%

That's a bit of a stretch saying it's WORSE than those other games based on a ratings average, isn't it? Besides, 92% is an OUTSTANDING rating for a game, especially on a metacritic-type site like Gamerankings.

Are you for real? A great game is not always defined by score. It dosent mean anything. I guess I should think GTA4 is one of the greatest games ever made because gamerankings says so. Well I dont. All games are a matter of opinion.

Well when I said that Gears of War was one of the greatest games of all time, people attacked me. When people say MGS4 is one of the greatest games of all time, everyone is fine, even though Gears of War is rated much higher than MGS4.

I'm just posting the facts. Just because you liked MGS4 more than Oblivion, doesn't mean its a better game. The fact remains that Oblivion is ranked higher than MGS4.

Facts? The numbers themselves are facts yes, but there numbers based of a review which is an opinion. And in my opinion MGS4 blows all those games out of the water. :)

Your opinion it is. The average opinion of game reviewers do not agree with you since it is lower on gamerankings.

Who cares what others think. If you think Gears is the best so eb it. It was amazing imo.

And ratings don't mean much on a small scale. Games rated from 90% to 98% are all brilliant. You got to factor in other things like platform and genre. SOTC is at 92%ish and i think thats one of the best games ever.

You seriously said Gears of War was one of the greatest games of all time!?!? You haven't played many games, huh?

So if Gears isn't one of the greatest games of all time, then MGS4 isn't even close.

You couldn't pay me to play it. I hate Japanese games. I hate anime. It makes me sick. I'd rather play as someone like Marcus Fenix then some old, skinny, grey-haired Japanese man.

Sorry, but your opinion is most assuredly NOT all that really matters... or did you mean to you? Because that would make me ask: what are you doing here?

And if you want to know what happened to "tis is teh gaemzpot!!, only gaemzpot scorez count!!", you'll need to ask the cow collective.

Aren't they? I personally think Half-Life 2 is the greatest Single-player FPS of all time (Battlefield 2 being the greatest Multiplayer), but alot of people on here thought it was boring. To each his/her own, I guess.

Yes it's said how haters will create stupid topics to bash MGS4, the game is a 10 here and it causes the haters to get angry everytime they realise that PS3 has the highest rated exclusive.

I never said MGS4 was one of the greatest! MGS1 maybe, but 4? I dunno. But there are games on that list you put up that I'd rather play in a heartbeat than Gears.

We use GS scores for determining flops. Gameranking scores are entirely relevant in discussions.

Take out all the weird euro mags that gave it a 7 for whatever reason

and only count the respected review site places and most of them have a 10...

this is one instance where gamerankings or metacritic doesn't work to classify a game

Erm, I thought that seeing as we are on Gamespot we go by their ratings. So why are you quoting from another website? According to Gamespot, MGS4 is worth of a ten making it better then any other 360 game (according to Gamespot). Just accept that and stop trying to make the game look bad, because you are failing pathetically.

The TC rated Metal Gear a 1 out of 10.rockguy92
TC's score is not factored into gamerankings so does not matter what he scored it really.
