What would you do if Mass Effect, MGS4, SMG, MP3, Halo 3, Crysis, Spore, Heavenly Sword, Lair, Bioshock, GTA4, Killzone 2 (lol), and several others all flopped. Flopped as in getting low AA or lower. What would you do?

I would blame the fan community. It is their hatred. . . their stupidity that would've been an afront to the gaming gods who quite obviously would be punishing is for not coming together not as Xbox fans and PS fans and Nintendo fans and computer fans but as Gamers.

The gaming community is in a shameful state. . divided. . at odds with each other. . Oh lord, please forgive us and deliver unto us glorious titles.

ummm... *starts to slowly back away*

Though I'm not sure if your jocking with everything (not underline) I agree. but for me I don't go by scored. If I did, judging by the game I got, apparently I like any games about 5.5 or 6.0

I'd buy them. There's plenty of games that I've enjoyed that have "flopped" here on System Wars and quite frankly, I really don't care. MGS3 is my favorite game of all time and it's considered a huge "FLOP." System Wars standards are pretty pointless.

Exactly what i'm considering doing now, since the Wii seems to be sucking the hardcore gaming industry dry: consider stopping gaming for a year or so and then see what happens.

Not sure what I would do, but Systems Wars would just explode, especially if Halo and Mass Effect flopped.

First, I would stop looking to GS for review scores. Not every big budget game is going to be good, but at least 1 out of 10 will be. Secondly, I would probably stop thinking about it 10 or so seconds afterwords and somehow move on.

I'd form my own opinions, unless of course you mean they all have some desisive gamepaly flaw, in which case, I would probably enjoy them still but look to other games.

Then I'd question the integrity of GameSpot reviewers. Reviews should be made without any consideration of how anyone else will view them. and thats not always the case (here and on other sites)

Well, play the fun ones. AA is not the end of the world, even if it's hilarious to read the reactions in here.

If all flopped as in "were physically painful to play", I would probably get drunk a lot more often.
