Well, so much for Uncharted: Drake's Floppage and Ratchet and Clank: Future Tools of Flopadelphia being system sellers. joe_g_patton
Flopadelphia? :lol: I gotta admit I loled.
Anyway, I think both these games will sell well eventually, but I don't think they're system sellers. The first big one for the PS3 will be MGSIV.
Well, so much for Uncharted: Drake's Floppage and Ratchet and Clank: Future Tools of Flopadelphia being system sellers. I own a PS3, and I actually enjoyed the Uncharted demo. Will I drop SIXTY DOLLA BEEEEEEEELS for that? HEEEEEEEEEELLLL NAW!!!!! This is yet another decent game that will have to wait for a price drop before I check out the full version. Once again, the demo was nice. Arathi Basin and Alterac Valley PVP >>>>> paying sixty dollah for Unfarted: Drake's Real-Time Weapon-Change. On an unrelated note: Warlocks and Shadow Priests need to be smacked by the nerf bat!!!!!joe_g_pattonI thought it didnt flop.
It was hyped AA.
Unlike M.E which was hyped AAA, and AAAA by a few lems............
tsk tsk, boourns.
So cows are now duck and covering and going back to the just wait mantra. So far it's been just wait for Motorstorm, then F1, then Lair, then Heavenly Sword, then Rehash and Clunk and now Uncharted: Drakes' an Idiot. No AAA this year, no killer ap no reason yet.
I was watching the ad for Uncharted and lol'd. It shows this dolt trying to sneak up on these people when his cel phone goes off and alerts them. Most people with an iota of intellegence would turn off there cel's, oh well.
As far as who's in damage control here the last 4 360 exclusives (Forza 2, PGR 4, Halo 3 and Mass Effect) have averaged 8.925, what is the GS average for Lair, Warhawk, Motorstorm, R & C and Uncharted? Not even close, proving that 360 is the game platform and PS3 is the lame platform.
BTW, by SW rules, ME flopped, calling it massive is bunk, Lair was massive. Trying to claim ownage on me is fruitless since I DIDN'T HYPE IT.Uncharted, not a flop. The only game I've hyped was SMG and lo and behold I was right on the money. Still the best of the year and way aboveanything on PS3...

The flop/not flop system is kinda weird when on one console lots of games are hyped AAA, and on the other the games are pretty much all hyped AA or lower. 11Marcel
But that's the reality. Uncharted never really looked AAA

You're on GS dude, no way around it, no AAAE for the PS3.
And again GS ranks squarely at the bottom of the scores on metacritic and gamerankings for another high profile PS3 game. If you want to take this site seriously then I actually feel sad for you.

It's a sad, sad day in gaming when an AA-hyped title which achieves an AA-rated score - and as a result is branded "Great" - is viewed as a dissapointment. You must have insanely high standards.

Um, nope. There is no rule that says that a game that flopped is worae then an unflopped game.8.5 > 8. therefore ME is better then Uncharted. Unless you can show me a rule that says otherwise.

Well, according to GS this is the way it's supposed to go. But in reality SW plays by it's own rules. http://www.gamespot.com/misc/reviewguidelines.html "Every gaming platform is different, especially in terms of its technical features. However, we believe high-quality gaming experiences are possible on all the gaming platforms that we cover. So we review games against the standards of their respective platforms by implicitly comparing them to other games on that same platform and, to a lesser extent, to other games in that genre. As a result, our ratings of games on different platforms are not intended to be directly compared to one another. However, relative comparisons do apply, so a game that scores poorly is a poor game by any standards, while a game that scores extremely high is an outstanding game by any standards."[QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"]Another disappointment for cows. :( Maybe MGS4 will be the first AAA....

I know, it's funny isn't it? There's no way I'll possibly be able to enjoy the game now, how can I possibly play a game that isn't AAA?

Did you read past "Another disappointment for cows"? He was talking about the status at GS (A,AA,AAA). It has nothing to do with HIS standards, it has to do with GS standards. Still no AAAE on the PS3 at GS. EDIT: Try not to take things so personally.[QUOTE="musicalmac"] It has nothing to do with HIS standards, it has to do with GS standards.-Spock-
Then I take it i'm just imagining the "Easily entertained, eh?" part.

I didn't see the "easily entertained part in what either of us quoted. And even still, he says "just playin'" Clearly you're taking it personally. It's a good game. Go play it instead of taking offense to statements that aren't meant to invoke that kind of feeling anyway.[QUOTE="-Spock-"][QUOTE="musicalmac"] It has nothing to do with HIS standards, it has to do with GS standards.musicalmac

Actually I don't care about any of these numbers. They don't make any sense across the board. You cant come up with 2.0 worth of critisism in the review yet it magically scores an 8.0.
Dont think that this bias doesn't exist at other places. Add in the fact that this and a few other fanboy sites drag the score down anyway so these aggregate scores are useless. The media is still operating under the Post E3 2005 letdown and the $600 price tag BS. Its still happening and it is what it is. The 360 came out first all these reviewers had a year to warm up to that system. The PS3 didn't jump out of the gates and make it look like XBOX1.5 but the reviews are still holding them up to that standard. Its actually really childish. Lording over others with Scores and other Peoples opinion isn't really any better.
If Uncharted is actually an 8.0 I would expect the written review to articulate why its an 8.0 just like I would expect it to tell my why something deserves a 9.5. This didn't happen on this review. The cons were that it was too easy and too hard and the story sucked. That doesn't cut it for explaining the 8.0.
On top of that PS3 owners are saddled with a reviewer that seems to be not ideal for the game being reviewed. This is the 3rd high profile PS3 game here that was served up to someone who's taste is not the game genre being reviewed. Thank god Halo 3 or Bioshock weren't assigned to sports game guys.

On gamespot, there will never be an exclusive AAA game for PS3. I called it here.
