Zelda OOT 3DS Eurogamer Review: 10/10

If the original game is still awesome to play, and this version only improves on it, why should it deserve a low score?

[QUOTE="lx_theo"] Because it says the game is changed little, with some upgrades here and there. None of them are real changes to the game though or the experience. Why on Earth would a the same game get a perfect score when it was released with minor upgrades? Even my favorites games of all time, which I'd love to give 10/10 on orignal release, would not deserve a perfect score with such little improvement on rerelease. There's no logic that follows a perfect score beyond nostalgia.lx_theo

But it isn't a flawed product. Who says it is being aimed at people that have already played it?

lol do you know what Gamestop's warranty on it is? Do they even have one?

NaveedLife

Not sure lol. Probably.

I got mine at Best Buy - But Nintendo has a year warranty + 90 days if you register it on Club Nintendo.

Who says it should deserve a low score? It just doesn't in any logical sense deserve a perfect score.lx_theo

If you don't like that review you can read the others that haven't given it a 10 out of 10. A review is just one person's take on the game - Don't know why you're taking it so seriously.

[QUOTE="Kaze_no_Mirai"][QUOTE="lx_theo"] The point is that it should be scored as a game, not as a remake. No remake with minor upgrades deserves a perfect score.lx_theo

So much damage control here...

Anyway awesome, but still won't be getting it yet. I already put my money down for Resident Evil Mercenaries.

[QUOTE="Kaze_no_Mirai"] No website is foolsih enough to say a game is a perfect. A 10 is simply the highest recommendation possible for a game.Kaze_no_Mirai

[QUOTE="Kaze_no_Mirai"][QUOTE="lx_theo"] It still implies the same idea. It implies that its as close as it can be to perfect, which goes along with the same point I made.Heil68

wow. there's a lot of nintendo kids that grew up to become game reviewers active right now. mario galaxy and zelda are getting 10's all over the place. THE NINTENDOKIDS!!lloveLamp

LOL at all the haters, I can only guess that many of these distractors have no idea that this is argueable the greatest game ever made and one of the first to recieve a perfect 10 on gamespot. Talking trash about this masterpiece only serves to highlight your own poor taste in gaming. Game is hater proof

[QUOTE="Heirren"]

Exactly my point.

Yet every call of duty gets a 9? Eurogamer is one of the most objective and fair sites out there as far as their reviews go. If the game holds up that well, it deserves the score. By your logic, Tetris is the worst game ever made and if a version becomes available it should recieve a letter grade from hell.

[QUOTE="Heil68"][QUOTE="Kaze_no_Mirai"] This is being called the "definitive" version of the game. 3D effect that adds to the experience? Check Good use of the touch screen and other 3DS hardware? Check Improved character models, textures, environments? Check Includes Master Quest version of the game? Check Boss challenge mode? Check It differentiates itself enoughDarkLink77

The damage control is strong on this one.

Different controls don't make it better. Everything else is blatantly minor. Its too long since original release that I'd consider the "definitive" argument anything relevant.lx_theo

[QUOTE="Heil68"] Is it considered an exclusive then? No..CheckHeil68

Ill be honest. If I were to review this game, based on what I've see I'd give it an 8.5. If Nintendo added some stuff from URA Zelda or something then I would give it a higher score.

Well, as long as the spreadsheet doesn't need to be updated. Keeping track of all those new games is hard. ;)DarkLink77

Excellent score. I wonder what GS will give it?

And eeading this thread is funny. Some of it is desperate.

[QUOTE="Heil68"][QUOTE="DarkLink77"] I can play Ocarina of Time 3DS on other systems? :o

DarkLink77

Just read above. So it changes how the bosses and mobs act? I don't get it. :?

so a game that got rated one of the best games many many years ago now still gets a 10 even today? im shocked

[QUOTE="Kaze_no_Mirai"][QUOTE="lx_theo"] They're not better because they're different. 3D give me headaches, so I'm pretty sure thats not an issue to care about. lx_theo

You obviously know all there is so perhaps you should take your complaints to Eurogamer and ask them to change their score.

[QUOTE="DarkLink77"][QUOTE="Heil68"] No! That's the amazing part DarkLink77:o I thought you were following along, but I guess not. Still not an exclusive for some odd reason *ponders*..I guess it's just one of those mysteries of SW's :o And as a added super duper lightning round bonus :o the spreadsheet doesn't have to get updated, that's all that matters by golly. :)Chutebox

:lol: at the name of the channel.

Cool commercials, i might reconsider my desition to get a 3DS next year, maybe i'll save some extra cash to play this game sooner :)

[QUOTE="lx_theo"][QUOTE="Kaze_no_Mirai"] I'm not saying they're better because they're different. They're better because most people actually prefer what was changed. Don't like 3D effect? Gives you headaches? Thats fine, the game still received a graphical update that screen do NO justice. Wanna relieve sme of your favorite boss battles? The you can play the boss mode. Want a bigger challenge out of the game? Master Quest is just for you.Heirren

[QUOTE="DarkLink77"][QUOTE="Chutebox"] Why would it be considered exclusive here? What has been added besides 3D and better graphics?

[QUOTE="Chutebox"][QUOTE="DarkLink77"] Master Quest? Completely revamped the way the game plays? New stuff?DarkLink77
