Which of the following games will get the LOWEST score on Gamespot? What is your reasoning behind your prediction?

 

Grand Theft Auto IV (PS3, 360)

 

Metal Gear Solid IV (PS3)

 

Halo 3 (360)

 

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii)

 

I'm gonna bookmark this thread just to see whether or not the majority of SW will be surprised by these games and their scores later on this year.

Anyway, which of these titles will get the lowest score?

Between SSBB and MGS4. I'm leaning towards SSBB a little more through.

Based on their past reviews, it seems this will be the case. Ironically, those will probably be the best two games of the four.

Smash Bros. because they're gonna rehash everything from the last game and add nothing but updated graphics and like one new feature.

They seem to consistenly miss the mark in their Smash and Metal Gear reviews, but moreso in the Smash reviews. They will undoubtedly give a lower score to Brawl.

GTAIV: Have not seen any actual gameplay yet. Extremely hard to judge at this point in time.

MGS4: I am unsure. From what we have seen from the game so far it looks AAA... but then again... so was MGS3.

Halo 3: Could flop... seriously, it could. Bungie could spend a lot of time making the new multiplayer functions work while forgetting about the single player campaign. I really do not want to judge, because I know I will most likely find it bland and boring. Still will be a great game.

SSBB: Hard to tell... we have only seen on major teaser video. We know nothing about controls, finalized graphics, or anything.

In the end, I will say Halo 3 or SSBB. Couldn't tell you which is more likely.

Probably Brawl since it's the only series of those 4 that has never gotten a AAA score.

Even if it's utterly amazing and the best game it can be..... MGS4. GS has never liked the series. SSMB maybe. Hell maybe Halo3's mediocre visuals will drop it down (don't spew that beta ver crap those are prettymuch final).

If the multiplayer is good enough, that doesn't really matter. Games like Unreal Tournament and Battlefield have shown this.

SSBB is the safe choice obviously.  Has never had AAA and the other ones all have had an AAA title before.

EDIT: I see lots of people leaning towards MGS4 as well, the only thing I can equate to my easy decision of SSBB over MGS4 is that I believe MGS4 will kinda get the MGS2 feel. I mean remember how hyped up MGS2 was compared to MGS3, and look, MGS2 got a 9.6.  The first MGS on new hardware is gonna get big scores like the first one on last hardware did IMO.

Games like Battlefield and Unreal didn't leave cliffhangers.

Considering that Halo 3 is supposed to be the end of the series, I doubt it will either.

Problem is, Halo was designed to deliver an enthralling singleplayer and multiplayer experience. UT and Battlefield were designed around multiplayer alone.

Why'd you even put SSBB on there? It's not really in the same league as the otehrs, it's like a party fighting game. If you wanted a wii titles you should have put Mario Galaxy.

So SSBB, since it will probably get AA.

SSBB or MGS4, going on series history and what little we know about these games (basically nothing) its hard to say they will outscore the other games.

My most aniticipated title up there is smash bros, and that will get the lowest score.

 

"no innovation", "no use of wii mote" "only updated graphics". It will get in the 8s.

There is highly varied opinion about Halo 2. Many found the single player experience refreshing, some found it incredibly disappointing. Many found the multiplayer to be the second coming, while other found it to be noobified for casuals.

I have seen it all posted here from time to time. Halo 2's fulfillment of Halo fans tastes was not as cut-and-dry as you make it out to be. ;)

SSBB from what we've seen/heard so far. No wii-mote could really hurt this score, since that's what the Wii is all about. That, and it's the only one without an AAA.

Guess you are right... it is just that I do not see a game that only delivers a "quality" multiplayer experience and lacks a "generally accepted poor singleplayer" experience twice in a row as getting as amazing of score.

Twilight Princess flopped. Halo 3, MGS4, SSBB, GTAIV... all of them can flop.

An easy poll question to answer: Metal Gear Solid IV.

It's the only one on the list that is a PS3 exclusive, and this site will target it with a hate rating like all the rest of the PS3 exclusives, pure and simple.

Agreed, we'll just have to wait and see.

I hope GTA4 because they are very boring games and lack depth but it will probably be SSBB because of graphics and gameplay.

Have no idea.  I flipped some coins and ended up with halo3
