I played Maple Story for a while, maybe one of the heaviest grind experiences you can experience. The quests on it give you crap all experiences. Instead your left to grind away at pigs and snails tc that give hardly any exp. The monsters get harder but they only give a small amount of exp. At level 25 I think I need like 40 000 exp maybe more, but the most I exp i could get ( based on my levels capabilities) was 60 ( flaming boar) which took me like 3 strikes to kill.
Don't get me wrong RPG's are one of my favourite types of games. It just seems after playing a few, the grind factor really begins to shine, and you long for a different type of game such as a first person shootert. Take Diablo 2 for example an excellent game, but getting to level 100 is a grind to behold, perhaps I have no patience, but I found many other things to do with my time besides getting my paladin past level 40 to 100. Oh sure theres nightmare and hell mode but its still the same game. But enough of Diablo 2. I was just wondering about your thoughts on grinding...and perhaps any funny..(sad), grinding experiences you have gone through.
You guys really are noobs. Nobody here even played the game long enough to tell tis worth more than that. You're all biased towards nintendo. just look at your signatures: "Wiss savings: 240$ Nintendo union, PS3 sucks" This is pathetic, jeff is a recognized reviewer, and you guys got to reason to think he's biased toward another system.
Go away fanboys.

WE are biased? Even though EVERY other site gave it above 9.0, explain that? Are you saying that everyone EXCEPT GameSpot are Nintendo fanboys? You make me cry, you just can't admit Nintendo make good games. It seems to me that the average reviewer is just caught up in the hype. The game has remained the same for 10 years. Time to innovate Nintendo. The Wii IS an innovation. Using motion sensing as controls IS innovative. Look at the Xbox 360 and PS3? They are just rehash consoles with zero innovation. Get your facts straight, n00b. Maybe they should innovate the game play mechanics beyond a simple control scheme. I never mentioned the 360 or PS3, so no need to bring them into it. I'm talking about Nintendo and their game, not their competitors and their own systems. Do you even know how the controls work in Twilight Princess? Have you even played the game? I have played the game for myself, the controls were great, exactly like every other site except GameSpot said. Jeff is just on weed or something and can't write a proper review. Yes, and the controls are tacked on. It was a Gamecube title, and it works as a Gamecube title. The sword swinging is just like pressing a less responsive button, and aiming on the Wiimote is a little weak. [/QUOTE
So..should we expect the Gamecube version to get better score? I think we should, Jeff won't be able to whinge about the controller or the audio through the control or the graphics. The gamecube version should get a better mark, a mark that is more consistent with other scores. If we were to put Jeff's questionable score on a data plot, his score would be dicounted as an outlier.
Let me just give my rant. What the hell is wrong with GS? 8.8..the lowest of any other site or magazine etc. Every other site has given Zelda Tp a score between 9.5 and 10, but not GS. There has to be something going on here. Jeff whinged about the controll, (probably a bit overbearing for him). He whinged about it being to similar to OOTin controls and dungeons etc ( why change an extremely good thing?) Jeff has to have an agenda against the Wii, he has to be biased in someway, you could just sense he was disintereseted in the game from the very start of his review. Please GS stop Jeff from reviewing Wii games. I no longer really as much respect for GS's reviews. I am signing up with IGN and ending this account. Disable your account people.
A re-review by an unbiased person might convice me too return.
PS: Im not really leaving but I am extremely annoyed
